Please go away.
It's better offer nothing than what you wrote in off season about big lineups or other stuffs that they turned out to be completely nonsense.
Do better instead tell others what to do. Trust me.

It's tone deaf to object to BS claims and general dog-piling against AD (or another Mav) that has no purpose other than hating? Gimme a break.
I'm not AD's biggest defender by a long shot. I'm not a fan of the trade that brought him here, and not in favor of having AD stay on this team (but he's a Mav, and it's certainty not his doing that made him a Mav). I was the one who raised the idea early in the summer that HE is the one who needs to be traded, rather than making him the focus and trading the rest of the team. And if AD messes up, you never see me excusing him.
But I will always tend to push back on BS level gripes and general ongoing routine haterism against a Mav. And against people whose raison d'etre in this forum is to spread that level of poo in one thread after another.

Haha you caught me! I made a mistake by thinking these Mavs could be better than they have turned out to be. And I expressed that opinion. Others thought otherwise. No question about it.
Nonsense? Nope - clearly the Mavs themselves headed the very direction I thought they would. Which means they (and their basketball experts and experienced coaches) saw potential (like I did) it would work. And then the Mavs let me down - it didn't work, and in fact has failed in an impossibly-spectacular fashion.
Now that we have that taken care of, please take your haterism with you (in thread after thread after thread, here we go again) and go away.

Don't try to save yourself, this roster is dysfunctional and can't work... The Mavs (aka Harrison, Kidd and Dumont who are those made the trade) had to trust in this roster. No options.
Everybody else in the world (maybe not the day dreamers) knew it was a clear failure.
And it's all under our eyes. No excuses. I'm sorry. Live with it.
Maybe with a Sengun or Jokic type of C it can work. But it requires basketball knowledge. Not for all.

Dude, you JUST got your posting privileges back. Is this really the way you want to exercise them?

Hard to reply to that.

I dont think AD is a slacker, but I do think he ended up out of basketball shape because his injury recovery prohibited exertion that could cause pressure on the eye and further damage..
This eye injury is very long to recover... Right Gump?

Jason Timpf is saying that AD being out of shape at the start of the season is not a one time thing. AD segment starts at 35:20

Is that supposed to be news? You only need to look at his injury history and his on-court activity. Everything screams poor work ethic and lifestyle. It´s not him having some imbalance in his body that f***** up some crucial bodyparts that ruined his whole career like Lonzo, Roy, Oden. No its just a Tour of injuries that all speak to lack of proper body care and fitness. He´ll be finished by age 35.
