RS 23/24 - Mavs @ Thunder (Sund 3:30PMEST)
Final game of a roller-coaster season.
Do you think the Mavs would play the full team here if they had beaten the Pistons?
The Thunder can clinch the #1 seed with a W here. Also the likely round 2 rival in the playoffs.

I prefer OKC over Denver all day... They are damn good but very young.

They need a big or two, especially if we get Lively back him and Gafford will feast. I think we're a bad matchup for them. But we're a bad matchup for almost every team.
You're not going to stop Luka, you're not going to stop Kyrie. Can the rest of the team give enough points is the only question.

I prefer Gafford + Lively to dominate OKC's chopstick bigs over a skilled MVP in Jokic.

Would love to see a loss here with all of our starters resting. Get OKC the first seed

Any chance Prosper can be the Mavs version of Evan Carter (for those who follow the Texas Rangers)?

It's a dilemma whether to watch Hardy and OMax flashes in a blow out loss or watch the LAL/NOP or PHX/MIN games...

Wouldn't mind watching Fudge.
Of all the athletic freaks on this team, he might be the most athletic.

Love this. Thj should play to get a rhythm, and let Omax and Hardy fly.
Maxi should probably play for the Sam reason as THJ. Green will help okc nab the #1 seed.

I know no one gives a f about what the league will do about this. But would Adam Silver act like a diva over something like this?

He would need to punish entire league. Celtics starting 5 also sitting out, Embiid sitting out, etc...

Cavs losing to Hornets after sitting out everyone (what the Mavs did last year ), but also, that fact that the "winner" gets to play Embiid/Butler in the PO

OMax is great, my hope for him is back, as for the 3 guards, not so much...

This is why Ive said OMax should get Maxi's minutes ....he's young and going to make mistakes but his physicality meshes with Gafford and Washington better than Maxi
