Who is going to choose to guard Brandon Williams vs. just double teaming AD?
It's a lost season. These wins are actively hurting our chances at actually building for the future. I will be shocked if these 8 dudes still playing are on the roster next season. 4-5 of them are a shoe-in to be traded. The rest will probably be out the league.
I am a Mav's fan, and I want to see them win. If it is irritating, especially since I do not post often, I will keep quiet about it. My comment on 130 was that despite only 8 healthy guys, they were still well above league average. I would not have any faith in these 8 guys beating a well-stocked team, but if they can stay afloat and convince management to bring back the rest of the team as it gets healthy, they can still win in the play-in. If not for the Dub's getting so hot, I would not have even counted out the 6 seed this early...as unlikely as it may be. If you look at Tankathon there is very little difference in odds in being the 14th team or 11th team.
