Omg, we won two games with Luka. Let's win another one!

Do you remember Kyle Kuzma? Passed up on joining the Mavs which lead to the much superior PJ.

Everybody here were always been with you Spencer, don't forget our love :lol: :lol: :lol:

Easy game. They are trash.
Maybe even Maxi and Hardy will be good.

Didn't Luka lose to Hornets back to back two seasons ago? So anything is possible.

This is a game Klay should get his pathetic stats up. Otherwise I hope he gets traded for asset upgrade asap.

We get to see Marvin Bagley III tonight for about 2 minutes. Thank you Kings for drafting him instead of Luka.

Hopefully this can be the type of game, for us to showcase Hardy/Omax + reboost of confidence for Maxi and Klay.

Probably the best thread to post this.

I know many of us disagree on certain players, transactions, etc., and sometimes things can get a bit heated, but I respect each of you guys. Looking through the posts, we talk basketball and love our team. This Mavs forum is about the Mavs, as it should be. Each of us loves our team and wants to see another title.

Why am I posting this here, go look at the board for the city we're playing tonight. Political garbage, wishing death on ppl they disagree with, nonsensical threads about carjackings with slang only an uneducated teen can decipher, and threads where people brag about their personal lives looking for adulation from strangers they think are friends.

Long story short, I hate Washington DC (sadly, I live 25 miles from it), so I'm really hoping this isn't an L, and we can all celebrate virtually.

I criticize Klay a lot because he hasn't met with my expectations, but hell I wish Klay prove me wrong just like how Kai had proven me wrong.

I think people are talking about that stuff because the b-ball team has been bad for a while. That's just my guess.

They were like that even when Wiz were a perennial playoff team, and sadly their football team is one of the best, so zero excuses

Yea Im with you on Klay, been very unimpressed and frustrated by his play and the fact that he's still starting. I think if he goes to Kidd and says for the good of the team, I'll be a 6th man, then this team would be very special. I just dont trust Kidd to make that decision on his own.

Yea I'd take Naji, Grimes, and Gaff over him; so 8th man is probably most fitting.

Luka
Kai
PJ
Gafford
Lively
Naji/Grimes/Spencer

Names above seem impacting more than what Klay offers on a nightly basis.

You see I am already being kind to Klay by grouping three guys together.

Their salary perfectly matches, but at this time I would prefer Strus over Klay.

The Wizard never won a game in the month of November. 15 game losing streak.

In the last 10 meetings the series record is 5-5. Mavs have won the last two.

Would you be surprised if i tell you that Gafford has been negative for the Mavs when he's playing this season? And i'm not talking relative to Klay, just in general, because you have him even above Lively, who has been amazing and the complete opposite to Gaff.

Correction I was not intending to have Gafford above Lively, rather just to say how many bodies are ahead of Klay on the roster. Also, both of their roles are more important to the team than Klay's role as of now.

And I don't give a shat about numbers. Jordan Poole has excellent numbers on a losing team. In my eyes, he is absolutely trash, I wouldn't want him on our team WHATSOEVER. So what do I care instead? I care about IMPACT towards winning.

Ops Klay is finding his old touch... That's a problem.

Return to Dallas Mavericks
