Imagine this happening in EU somewhere, or specially in the Balkans. No army would be able to protect the owner from the fans. And they also wouldn't dare to kick out fans like this. US fans are are like a bunch of puppies compared to that.


Where I am from, almost 30.000 people for a third division soccer match where chanting against the owners and nothing happen. Not only in the Balkans, is normal chanting against the team, coach or owner if the team goes wrong here.

Is this the worst ‘losing streak’ a team has ever been on in the history of the league from the trade, to the injuries, to the bad PR?
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

I agree.

I would take it a step further and force that poster to explain the yes choice. And if they don’t, they get banned.

Either Nico or Dumont.

Mods basically know at this point who's using a burner on this site. Hmmm..... Wonder how much they got paid to keep it quiet? Maybe as much as Mavs arena security people :-?

Many of you guys voted for Trump and he ejects people at his rallies wearing BLM gear. Many of those same people like Musk and he removes posts on X that criticize him. Many also support religious universities that won't tolerate students with dissenting views.

So, shrug. Either you're for free speech or you're not. Choose a lane.

Probably polls around the 2011 finals when you exclude Heat fans…ironically again Mavs related

Seriously, does this team not have a PR department?

Between the countless public statements made trashing Luka (atleast making pretty thinly veiled accusations) and now this, it's like the team is purposely going out of its way to make itself look bad.

Spoiler:
The President just banned Associated Press from his press conference because it won't rename the Gilf of Mexico, as he wishes. This is equivalent to the Mavs banning reporters who criticize the Luka trade. But not to this board. Because many of you like Trump and nobody likes Nico.

What a fraud poll this is.


Please don't derail basketball threads on the GB with politics.

Should they? No. Do the Mavs have a right to? Sure I guess. But this is as soft as the wuss ass players whining and getting fans kicked out for their precious little feelings being hurt.

On that second video it has been forever since I've seen so many empty seats at a Mavs game. The Mavs lead the league in attendance despite the Adelsons' first move as new owners being to massively jack up ticket prices.

The Mavs were on a NBA record sellout streak that had lasted since 2001, judging by those stands that streak is finally over
