Fixing what KL said: "if Carlisle had this TYPE of roster they would be a top 4 team in the West. Roster is flawed, but I think RC is good for a few more wins maximizing what he has. Now RC has a talented group of players in Indy, and a Luka-lite who listens to him, let's see how far he takes that squad.

It's not about Carlisle. That's not the point. I'm just saying, Carlisle (or another top level tactician) would have this team playing like a team by now. That's all. It's not about Carlisle, it's about Kidd. Kidd is the problem. RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - Mavs2021 - 01-25-2024 At least we are not the Knicks.

All those comments from salty Mavs fans about “Good luck to Brunson playing for an irrelevant franchise” not aging so well. The Mavs window closed when he left. (and more specifically walked for nothing) RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - hakeemfaan - 01-26-2024 (01-24-2024, 06:53 PM)hakeemfaan Wrote: I want Luka to be unselfish and efficient like Dirk. Jokic plays the way I want Luka to play. Bump and I wish every post praising Luka is bumped here Love or hate his style of play, this guy is an absolute freak. Enjoy that he plays for your team. You want Jokic or SGA. I get it. There are plenty of other fan bases who will literally cry tears of joy if Luka joins their team. Enjoy his play as long as he is here and don’t take his tenure here for granted.

Luka won Euroleague MVP at 19 years old while leading his team to a title. Some people think the problem is Luka and not the trashfire franchise he plays for, which had done nothing for 8 years before his arrival and has failed to build any kind of meaningful team around him since. Would Luka be even better if he was more mature? Sure, just like MJ would have been even better if he wasn't an asshole, Lebron would be better if he had more of a killer instinct, etc. But ultimately if you can't win with those guys, that's on YOU, not a generational talent among the best to ever play the game. RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - The Jom - 01-27-2024 I like the team around Luka. Do I really have to trash them to be a Luka fan? The Aussies were really, really good tonight too. That Lively kid was superb. 5 blocks! Just hard to notice with ole 77 distracting the universe with splendor. RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - ThisIStheYear - 01-27-2024 That kind of game is actually a sign of weakness in the team, but, in the end, this is the entertainment business, and watching Luka is entertaining AF regardless of how good the team is or whether this overall roster has potential.

I would agree but for the fact scoring banana #2 is out with a bum wrist. If Luka and Kyrie post 73 points between em, we are happy. Luka just picking up that slack. RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - DallasMaverick - 01-27-2024 I'm just sad that F Gump quit watching the Mavs right before Luka's big game. Sigh. RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - Branduil - 02-03-2024 It becomes more and more clear that losing Brunson for nothing is a franchise-destroying error they will never recover from. Even worse than losing Nash for nothing. RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - MrGoat - 02-03-2024 I think I'm out. The reffing against us is getting out of control, no wonder we always have so many injuries. I pretty much missed the 2007 and 2008 seasons after my disgust with the refs in 2006 and I'm getting sick of watching it again. Ever since we traded for Kyrie we've gotten a pretty rotten whistle as a team, I don't think that's a coincidence RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - The Jom - 02-04-2024 (02-03-2024, 11:46 PM)MrGoat Wrote: I think I'm out.

It’s like watching the old WWF. Zero integrity. Hard to believe they think they can keep doing that with gambling becoming legal. RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - ThisIStheYear - 02-05-2024 Luka scoring title is a big freakin deal and a good reason to watch. It would give Luka some career validation. Scoring titles are difficult to win and vindication for some offensive minded players who probably aren’t destined to win a title.

Not only the scoring title, 3rd in assists and almost doing a Pippen. Leads the team in points, rebounds, assists, steals and 3rd in blocks.

I'm back in on this season RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - bodhisattva - 02-10-2024 Its one game, (I know we are winning a championship and stuff..) and I will reserve my judgement, but Mavs looked good. Also are on a 4 game winning streak. Also are amongst the teams with the easiest schedule remaining. Stay healthy, win everything, climb to 5th or 6th spot, avoid play in and hope for the best match up in round one. Maybe this season can be salvaged. RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - ItsGoTime - 02-11-2024 Next game is a Holmes revenge game, look out! RE: I'm out on the 2023-24 season .... - BigDirk41 - 03-05-2024 Might be time to revive this. This team is done. Put a fork in them. Play in is the best case scenario. They are going nowhere. They aren't even fun to watch right now. |
