The whole franchise and probably the league should be investigated by congress for antitrust violations. That trade has upset the natural order of the NBA in terms of talent value and acquisition. NBA basically makes no sense now.

And they're doing this on the verge of the massive new broadcast deals kicking in.

Why do so many get this wrong?

It's "lose" not "loose."

I’m sure there will be a few loose ones in the mix too.

Go to your own profile. Look for the "Search user's posts" function. Then type in "resign".

I'd dare to guess that 95% of posts on this forum incorrectly use "resign" instead of "re-sign," despite these terms having nearly opposite meanings. You're 0 for 15 yourself.

From the top rope :lol:

Well done

Nope.

They want a casino in Dallas.

There's no way they'd relocate the Mavs.

When the Mavs are eliminated I'm going to create a thread for Dallastinian refugees who need a new team and have fanbases make their cases

The reason for the thought that they'd move the team is because they had already donated millions to try to get gambling legalized in Texas and so far it looks like it's going nowhere. Their plan was always to have a team to play around a massive casino resort and if they can't do that in Texas they just might tuck their tails and move back to Vegas

I don’t know, they might be feeling pretty loose with how much their fandom is being screwed over.

there's a formula in art and artists that you raise prices in down times.
why, i dunno. maybe it's about the chaos, maybe you view it as an opportunity within the reset. like a refresh. whatever, but i think that's what dallas is doing

I believe this is what they are planning to scare lawmakers with. "If we can't have it here then we move the team to Vegas".

It's not happening this time round. 2027 is their next shot. I think they're gonna give up and go for the Vegas plan B.

There are quite a few teams in the NBA with sold out arenas that could stand to have a few empty seats o once in a while.
