Oh you mean the thing we use to lose in the first round to the Clippers every year? Until we got PJ, Lively, Gafford and Kyrie? Interesting. Funny you are throwing shots at the Mavs when the Mavs been to a championship more recently than the Spurs. I get you’re upset you lost to the Nuggets but that has nothing to do with the Mavs we are rebuilding.

Mavs are my 2nd team. They are doing a great job of rebuilding. Hope they win the draft lottery again to give Flagg a running buddy.

Did you know that Flagg is a grandson of Fanny Flagg?

Yeah man we really could use a top 3 pick. If Kyrie and Lively can get back healthy this thing might be ok.

I need to google Fanny Flagg. Who’s you’re first team?
 
Mavs are stupid for trying to win this last game. If they win and Pelicans and Grizzlies lose they will go from 6th to 8th lottery odds. They are going to burn Coopers career with having no picks until after 2031
 
I think San Antonio may have made a big mistake…they win that last game I believe that pushes the lakers to the 3 seed. Now they will likely have to face Denver and then likely OKC. That’s a much tougher road than whomever eliminates the Lakers and then one of either Denver or OKC…

I completely agree. They did a big favor for OKC. Now, OKC only has to eventually play either the Spurs or the Nuggets. They don’t have to play both of them.

But now the Spurs have to play BOTH the Nuggets and the Thunder if they want to make it to the championship.
 
Bad look by Orlando last night. Playing all starters in a must win game, they lose to Boston who sat practically all their playoff rotation guys. They made Baylor Scheierman look like prime Lebron and Luka Garza look like a healthy Embiid

Tanking is tough when two teams are doing it. What do you do just like miss shots collectively lol? They benched everyone even say Flagg after the 1st.

It’s gonna suck if we get like a 8-12 overall pick still a good player but the lottery is so hard to predict.

Mavs, Sixers and Spurs were the top 3. Far from
The worst teams and if healthy would’ve made the playoffs.

They have picks just a lot of swaps they have Lakers 2029 pick and Lebron won’t be there. Wonder what that team will look like.

Shockingly I think Celtics have some good players. Even those guys. I always liked Garza game. But yeah if you can’t beat them might as well wrap it up. Because that’s Celtics b team.

Yeah but I look at it as they will be battle tested might as well get the hard out the way.

I don’t think Spurs care. They believe they can beat the Thunder. Dirk and the Mavs had to battle Blazers, Lakers, Thunder and Heat. If Spurs are gonna do this they should have no problems facing Nuggets.

They were supposed to contend this year too. I wonder if Orlando's brass is having second thoughts on Banchero. He is a good player, but he hasnt developed into a lead dog on a contending team caliber guy

Yea ...... i was disappointed

Still excited to see what this very young team can do this year ....... still think they desperately need a power forward.

Yeah they are gonna have to make a decision on those guys.

I personally think Suggs and one of Banchero and Franz need to be traded.

And I like Suggs but I think Black needs to start. Maybe they don’t see him as a point….
Rockets and Magic were in the same boat but instead of leaning on their rookies they traded for Durant.

I think we have a decent shot at coming out of the East. I think we would still be fodder for OKC. However we have alot of resources for the offseason, so getting there can tell you what you need to do to get farther. Im more worried about NY than Detroit right now. NY built that team to beat us after 2024, and it worked that year. I dont know if Detroit is there yet as far as playoff ball goes. They will play Cade the same they did Luka and make him try to carry that team in his back

I think you're biggest thing is consistent outside shooting from Castle and Harper. The last couple months have to be encouraging there. Both got up to 34% and 33% after being below 30 at the break

In my opinion, Castle and Harper are overrated.

Wemby can be an all-time great, but both Castle and Harper wouldn’t even be starters on the OKC team.
