I don't know if that is Doncic effect or what but some people, who follow Mavs for a long time, said that sometimes it feels like they are becoming new Lakers on the road. That's amazing to see and next year they have a potential to even further boost fan support.

For a reasonable price, I would also definitely go check out the live games. Just not getting up in the middle of the night for the tank

Wiz blew one tonight but still have an easy schedule. Hopefully Grizz can win this one.

Tank roll on, we probably have five winnable games left, if we finish at 30 wins I'll like our chances to keep our pick

Got games coming up vs Cavs and Pels. Gotta lose 1 of these for sure

The Grizzlies are playing like they want to win tonight.

Pelicans will beat us. Randle always destroys us and AD (even in limited minutes) is a monster. The Cavs game will be a Mavs win though.

Only hope in the Cavs game is they arent likely to fall out of the top 4 worst records spot where all the %s at getting #1 are the same so they can win a few at the end this year.

Wiz just beat the Kings in a very hard game to watch.

Mavs now up to 37% on that top 4 pick. Really only think the Grizz are in play here unless the Mavs really start winning some games.

XTraderXL · Post #150 » by **XTraderXL** » Tue Mar 12, 2019 7:11 am

37% are decent odds and it would be foolish for the Mavs to now start winning games. Its going to be interesting...

Anyone think the Bulls want that #4 pick for Wendell Carter Jr?

No. Wendell isn’t worth a pick that high

Big tank game hawks grizz, either we get closer to Atlanta if they win or some breathing room from Memphis if they win

MEM wants to give the pick up this year to Boston, rather than keep a top 8. They’ll move Conley this offseason and go full tank so they want their 2020 pick (vs keeping 2019 and giving up 2020).

WAS also looks like a team that wants to win.

It’s really now a question if we can catch ATL at #5.

Would have liked to see the Grizz win too, but separation from the Wiz is solid.

Just some random Tank thoughts on why we may keep our pick (Yes I know they are dumb)

1) Mavs have never moved up in the draft
2) NBA loves NY , but hates James Dolan
3) Suns got the #1 last year so they have to slip
4) Cavs have had enough #1s with Bron, Irving, Bennett, and Wiggins so they cant get another and will slip
5) Hawks cant possibly luck out and have 2 really good picks
6) Bulls I got nothing

All valid points but a conspiracy theory is that the draft lottery is rigged. So with the racial slurs in Utah to the near Malice in the Palace scenario by Ibaka the other day, watch Adam Silver gift the first pick to Dallas due to Luka and KP being model citizens of the NBA :lol:

Someone get Zion Williamson a custom fitted Dallas Mavericks jersey. That kid is huge.

Pels up 3 don't foul suns nail a 3. Pels call TO and don't have any suns make tech and win. Pels could gain ground after this.
