Not sure we'd have a single playoff appearance in the Stevens Era without Horford. We certainly wouldn't;t have won a single series, IMO.

Fine! You have a point. Put the guy on ice until the playoffs because his regular season play is driving me insane! Lol

I am trying to think of nba teams in the past that where projected to do big things only to flop. This team has to be right up there with those teams.

To me, that’s always been the problem. Al is getting paid like a super star and he isn’t even an all-star anymore.

Then we have Hayward who was a top 25 player before the injury and he is getting superstar money but isn’t an all-star player at the moment.

It's a disaster of a situation. Two highest paid players aren't even playing at an all-star level in a weak eastern conference. At least Hayward has an excuse, maybe he'll come around. Al has never been worth what he's getting paid, and he's regressed a ton from last year.

The Mavs music selection during stoppages in play is the worst in the league, by a large margin.

Brown leaves with 7-9 shooting - thanks to taking it to the rim. (and 1 miss was the opening dunk attempt)

We are like 6 different teams, and all of them are bad.


Until they trade Rozier good luck scoring with the Smart and Rozier lineup that gets significant minutes.

Who would have thought after 20 games, that the Celtics own pick would be the best of the 4 picks we have.

Clippers, Kings, and Grizzlies all have better records than us.

At least our pick will be better than the Kings and Grizz.

Mavs are playing great basketball. Getting wide open 3s and shots at the rim whole night. Doncic is already good. Fun team to watch.

I'm jealous of teams with good shot charts. Look at Milwaukee, same roster, new coach, completely different team. I'm not even mad anymore. Love Brad, but he needs an offensive coordinator. Or a player that will be 'the offense'. Like IT was.
