Truely mad sometimes. He risked better records just so he knows his team better come playoff time.
This time he's experimenting, giving guys chances, trying things to see how they work, and we're 2 - 0!
Yet people still complain
That will never change...
Josh Green is a top 5 Mavs player...

I don't want to overrate this win but it sure feels like this Mavs team has an offense built to score on the road. In the past if they don't hit shots they lose (like most teams anyway). But this team has so many creators or guys that can get their own shot off. Luka & KP for sure, Wright, Brunson, Jackson, Curry, THJ. All these guys can get their own shots and dribble around the defense. Guys like Maxi, DFS depend on others to create them open looks altho both of those can get some hustle points. Powell is the same way. Mavs missed a bunch of open looks like night but still won because they were getting to the bucket a ton.

Some people love to be reactionary, it's a good sign we are winning despite not having gelled at all yet. Guys like each other but don"t know each other yet. Barring injuries this team will be great this season already. Mark my words, the flaws they display are NOT a lack of skill. They are good enough. Chemistry on the court will improve over time. And Carlisle tries to win from the start this year. It's different folks.
50+ Win season this year barring injuries or a disruptive trade.
Once Powell is back they will routinely score 130+ per game.

Porzingis still get fouls called on him for clean blocks. He hasn’t reached “superstar” status in the refs eyes.
