rahuan holmes is solid. i think the front office doesnt want him to play - trade purposes. a lot of politics on this mavs team.

Watching THJ trying to play defense is certainly a special experience.

Prosper could have something. I would love for him to get more playing time going forward.

Holmes can play. Our front office is clearly not playing him to keep him healthy is my guess for trades...but he should be playing if he can help us win.

Omax looked good in the half. Played very good defense and showed a ton of energy and physicality. Boxscore ain't great but he had a lot of defensive plays that don't show up.

Maxi and Powell on the otherhand......didnt even look like G league players. Just so bad.

I swear Grant gets called for like 2 or 3 moving screens every game.

They do best when Luka plays, just shows how incredibly limited they are. And i'll never understand why Kidd didn't slowly develop OMax. Played Kief many minutes instead for absolutely no reason. But then again, we have a coach who can't even pull his hands out of his pockets to call a crucial TO when needed.

I swear i thought you were joking with this but now i see you were actually right :lol: I can't wait for RealGM "experts" to bring up Doncic's On/Off numbers again in MVP thread.

Why? Kyrie is always injured. This is a fact that is not changing with Mavs Celtics or Nets.

Luka didnt miss more games than he missed on average in last two years.

Lively broken nose is not related either.

If you get Kyrie, your team will get more Losses.
Picking on coach, physio, staff to bail Kyrie’s absence is nonsense. Max player who rarely plays good and often sits with street clothes.

You're focusing on Kyrie but he's missed a large number of games because Powell fell clumsy and injured him..btw he got lucky on that play,that could have easily ended a lot worse..Luka's been banged up since the begining..Exum(last year he played 75 games for Partizan, Euroleague+Aba league) has missed a lot of games ..Maxi has missed how many games?? Some of it is bad luck (Powell falling on Kyrie definetetly is, discloacated finger trying to get a steal is also unfortunate) and some of it is bad management,trying to bring someone in before they've healed(Maxi)

I just can't fathom why he's in the dog house, best screener on the team, and with very little playing time, his chemistry with Luka is already very advanced.

He never had a chance.

He is not the solution for sure but Powell and Maxi are the problem right now.

What a pile of utter nonsense. His longest absence this season was caused by Agent Maple Leaf falling on his leg. I mean clearly that's on Ky for standing there, how dare he!
We get you hate him but your line or argumentation is getting embarrassing. Just say you don't like the dude and be done with it.

The funniest part is

Max player who rarely plays good

Kyrie with Mavs 26-5-6 with 54/40/92 % shooting.

Definitely a no Mavs fan. Just a hater. Skip him :wink:

This is NBA. There are a lot of big bodies jumping, reaching and falling on the ground or players.
Durability of Kyrie is a known issue. Finger, ankle, knee etc etc. For some players at old age this translates to injuries and longer heal up times. Some other players known as durable and they keep playing most of the games.
So its hard to say aging Kyrie missing games is particularly a bad luck.
