Not excited about the Mavs. I expect them to be bad and it's not good for my mental health. Maybe some trade talk around the deadline will be exciting.
Well the good thing is it will be a lot less frustrating than what they did last season where they were terrible but not terrible enough to get a better pick despite the whole mess of literally not having control over the draft for half a decade going forward.
The old leadership messed that up but the damage is done and this season it is out of their hands so every ounce of positive play actually does not hurt the future of the team anymore.
Also the roster has gotten a lot younger. There is a solid chance the season ends and they hopefully will have found and developed a few guys who will be here for more than just a short stint.
It can literally only get better from a roster building point. What they did last year was just illogical on so many levels. Watching them chase the #9 pick trophy was like watching an addict not being able to withstand the urge again and again. My god I still hate Kidd, Riccardi, Finley, Middleton, Tyus, Bagley for that.
Also every game going by means we are inching closer to Luka‘s return in 2028 so it will all work out anyway.
