Dallas Mavericks: Generations

I choose to believe that this is solely the fault of deandre jordan, who i hate quite a lot

From what I read, part of this situation is caused by Durant taking a salary cut for them to be able to sign Jordan/Durant wants Jordan to start. This could all be basketball journalist BS. However, I choose to believe it because Allen is the better center and it is weird he isn't starting.

Pls let him go to Dallas Nets.

In retrospect, its pretty amusing that after the whole deandre2dallas hullaballoo (begging thru texts, etc) he finally went to dallas as a free agent and then got unceremoniously dumped to the knicks halfway through the season

When you try to stat pad and almost hurt Luka, you're done with the Mavs. It doesn't matter how long Cuban drove around looking for your house.

I'm happy halliburton went to a team that will use him well, like the kings, instead of one that would use him poorly as a primary creator and first option, such as the pistons or knicks. Listen to Prep2Pro NBA podcast every Sunday and Tuesday. Use promo code "armchair" at betonline.com

They were killing me when they talked about Gobert’s deal on their preseason over/under pod. Like the Utah FO wouldn’t pay him 4/$150 if that were even reasonably possible. They look at it so abstractly and intellectually that they circle back around to clueless.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

To be fair Celtics fans helped because they wanted to win that trade.

I get what your saying, i really do, homegrown talent is awesome. However maximizing the current team for 2 to 3 years is worth those two players. Simmons is an enigma.

I wouldn't trade Ben personally, but in the hypothetical described above I'd be more pissed about losing Maxey. He's looked really good and could probably start right now.

man, i really thought lauri could be good his rookie year. hope he manages to turn it around, but it won't be for the bulls.

it's just waiting for the YOUNG CORE guys to wash out one by one after they show flashes, this team drafted a bona fide superstar 31 overall and they got rid of him because they didn't want to pay him, what a loving joke.

That’s something that is usually important

He’s also played against bench scrubs mostly
