They don't seriously think they have a playoff capable roster do they?

It doesn't really matter but Durant still being an all-star captain despite not playing is dumb. They should have had someone playing picking the team so they don't start down a player.

Did ebay do a big crackdown on counterfeit jerseys? I'm shocked there aren't a bunch of counterfeit jerseys for this year's ASG. Never would have expected there to be a time with no official or counterfeit NBA ASG jerseys for sale.

For real though that's an incredibly disappointing response from Lebron. He needs to be telling people to get vaccinated.

Make it so you can't screen at or beyond the 3pt line in half-court offense. Let them create their own space for 3s.

I love this idea but I’m conflicted because I enjoy watching unexpected hard screens on players doing a full court press.

Edit: I just realized I misread your post. This rule just for half court offenses would own.

Aaron Gordon is a guy I would like on the Mavs to play over Dorian Finney Smith, although the Mavs really do need guys who can shoot (which is why a lot of Mavs fans are obsessed with a trade for Harrison Barnes + Buddy Hield)

Lebron makes me sad because while he’s “only” 36 and a freak of nature there is so much wear on those tires from playing every minute possible since he was 18 including in like 15 deep playoff runs that he’s gonna fall apart soon.

If LeBron had been injured in a stadium full of fans and all the fans sang "I Believe I Can Fly" in unison, he would have simply stood up uninjured like the T-1000.

In all seriousness, it is crazy he is still great at his age. Many basketball fans (myself included) take it for granted. I agree that he could fall apart soon and it will be sad.

Don't want to lose Maxi for Collins. Collins is clearly better but Maxi is one of the more underrated defenders in the league. Maxi is currently the 4th most accurate 3 point shooter in the league.


"The Hawks, however, per the report, 'haven’t been overly thrilled with the offerings.''"

Buyout market looks deep and lots of options. A recipe for a quiet deadline, hope I'm wrong.


I think this is probably ultimately smart. Look more this offseason than a deadline deal.

The problem with the Mavs looking in the offseason is any big free agent they go after signs with another team then mentions Dallas would have been their second choice.
