Get Noel NOW! Better be at his doorstep with a contract and an enforcer by the time the sun rises.

I think Holiday is the last buyout signing for the Mavs. They wont waive another guy.

I would think Morris gets waived if we go after Noel.

Seems to be a lot of teams interested in Noel, which means we’ll probably not get him.

I am more interested in Ibaka or Whiteside than Noel. The Mavs is too skinny up front.

Noel has the physical tools to do well but is more stupid than Willie Caulie Stein. Highly doubtful Kidd plays him heavy minutes. He'll just revert back to what he's used to running.

Because of Donnie and Carlisle. I think he can be convinced that the old regime is gone. But truth be told, Nerlens is also a low IQ player. I think Kidd plays Powell over him.


Kidd plays Powell over everybody in the world probably :lol:


If Luka was a center he'd be coming off the bench.

Can the Mavs make this agreement with Luka:

We will sign Dragic, but if you complain to a referee one more time, then we’ll release him. We will also take away your console, so no more FIFA!

We need to get worse on defense and sign Goran Dragic.

We already know the Mavs aren’t going to be able to stop anyone the remainder of this season. The Mavs best chance this season is to run up the score. Dragic would help do that for the last 20+ games and playoffs.

Nah. I dont think you need Dragic. Kyrie will play 35 to 40 mins at PG in the playoffs anyway. I want to see Josh Green take on some playmaking duties to see if you can expand his role or you've hit his ceiling.

If Luka is on pout mode, it doesn't matter how many of his friends you sign, he'll still complain to the refs while the game is ongoing.

But if he signs a promisary note to stop pouting, Mavs can sign Dragic, Juancho Hernangomez and another Serbian of his choice. Goran can give him a shoulder massage and Juancho can give him a foot rub. Anything to make him happy so he stops complaining.

But smarter than McGee.

Once Dragic joins us, we can easily score 130 points per game while giving away 160 points to the opponent.

After the Kyrie trade and with Josh Green emergence, and MWIV/Hardy providing OK emergency minutes, I thought Dragic in his washed form is really unnecessary, but, I'm having second thoughts, team can benefit from his leadership and persona.
Defense wins draft lotteries!
