Reporter, something like: I'd never suggest your team last year lacked toughness or anything like that, but, was it part of the goal this year to add a little, shall we say, protection against tems that like to knock Luka around a little?

Rick: Yeah


RE: MAVS NEWS: media availability Dec 1-5 | Luka + JRich (starter) on Dec 1 - BolsDamols - 12-01-2020

Rick: When you established that you're a galactically successful offensive team but below average defensively, that's not going to win you a championship.

Why did we want Gallinari?   Tongue

Great interview from Richardson. Seems exactly like the smart high character guy Carlisle will love.


I also now picture 16 year old Luka doing the rounds at Venice Beach like Billy Hoyle.

I was impressed.  He was thoughtful and none of his answers seemed canned.

The Starters/No Dunks didn´t even think Luka would make the Christmas schedule. Dodgy This is a star-driven league and the league knows the future. Cool

So Rick was talking about all of the defensive additions to the team - and didn't mention Iwundu at all. JJB, who can very barely still play, is going to kick a guy with a pedigree as a defensive starter, off of our "looking to get tougher" squad. Idgaflip if it makes Luka happy. Don't tell me you're shooting for toughness when something like that happens.

Regarding Luka statement. He is always saying nice things about guys. I wouldn't put more than that into it. 

Mavs reportedly gave Iwundu a 2 year guaranteed deal. Why would they go through all the trouble of keeping 2021 cap space and than just throw away a portion of it away by cutting him. I am sure Barea will be the one being cut, nothing else makes sense.

I don't think Iwundu's contract was official until after Rick's presser was done. Can't mention an unsigned player.

Yeah Iwundu was official at 3:51 pm today....hours after RC's press conference.

Looking at Kamm’s roster graphic...we know they won’t want dead money past this season, and Johnson’s deal seems way too big for them to swallow. So, the only three options I see are: Boban, WCS and Brunson. 

I honestly can’t imagine them cutting any of those guys for Barea to be the 15th man. I just can’t. If they do make a decision like that, there will be a bigger reason behind it than “we like him.”

Here is the tweet when Iwundu became official:
