They have a pretty good draft record

Frank having this much experience and success this young is very promising as well

I thought the Mavs have been pretty bad drafting since Dirk?

wtf

What is John Wall?

What is Tony Parker (prime)?

Parker and Conley had to work really hard to get as good as they got, and both were major/mild sleepers. John Wall just disappeared when it matters most and his J is gonna be a problem, not in the way usually used by our posters ( :lol: ) for good. Wall is not a really great player.

And Fox is lauded because of his intangibles, one being willingness to compete and work hard. Similar skill sets to both players.

And are you trolling me at this point? Because this Wall isn't good stick is a little sick my friend. Like not healthy.

What does that even mean? Not really great? You don't think he's top 15-20? Because he's in the debate for top 10.

Damn.

I always wondered why James went back. No lie, I lost what little respect I had left for him. There is no way in hell I would have went back to Cleveland under Dan Gilbert. Fuq that ****.



He pushes Gilbert around like crazy. Look at all the deals he's pushed. Constantly has his finger on the bail trigger so they sign all his guys and make the trades he wants. Gets his coach. Then when he leaves/declines, they're ****. Deep down, I bet that making them dance around for him was part of it.
