I love watching the mavericks right now They are trying to win the 3rd straight game without luka.. They have such good team ball movement without without him it's like everyone is getting touches and everyone is playing well, Versus watching him pound the ball into the floor off waiting to get a spot up Jumpshot
versus cutting and moving.

I truly feel he may be the most overrated player in nba history. A primadonna who wants all the glory all the dribbles all the praise and yet doesn't even give a damn about getting in shape or playing defense..

Omg.. Lebron James throws back-to-back brick 3 pointers and Dallas had this game won, but they had 2 guys rebounding fighting each other they lose it, instead a corner for Wayne Ellison to hit a buzza beater to tie the game up overtime.. wow

My god Austin Reeves just made my hate for Ime go up one more.. an undrafted rookie, on a team full of veterans gets 32 freakin minutes, goes for 5 for 6 from 3 including the game winning shot..

Not Lebron, Not AD, Not Westbrook, but A Reeves..

There is ZERO chance Ime ever gives a undrafted rookie 32 minutes, let alone playing time in most of the 4th and all OT. The kid hasn't proven shet yet.. But he plays because he "appears" to be a shooter. All teammates and coach gave him all the confidence in the world not only by playing him but passing him the ball so many times..

Oh and he wasn't drafted because he is NOT considered a good defender..

Sorry to all the Ime supporters but F him..

No Bam, No Jimmy Butler, No Tyler Herro, No M Morris, on the road in Philly with Embiid playing. No problem, just play young players in Gabe Vincent, OMER YURTSEVEN :o , Max Struss and M Garrett and they win..

I thought Prich and Aaron would've gotten more burn after their summer season gains.

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

I thought I was the only one. Thing is, he has the talent where if he was dedicated and wasn't a whiny, stat padding no defense playing chucker, he could be an ATG like his fanboys think he already is.

they matter, just not for Ime. It wasn't long ago that Jaylen, Tatum and Rozier were the G-League darlings and parlayed that into big roles. I think the likelihood is they were given major minutes and allowed to shine because they were trying to move them. Ime and Brad have zero loyalty to them as they are Danny draft picks. Ime was always going to play the recently acquired vets more. The only reason Grant gets minutes is because he can play the shallowest position on our roster, the 4. If we had an even halfway decent veteran at the 4 Grant wouldn't see the floor either

Tatum was a starter in the NBA from day one, and Jaylen never played in the G-league. Rozier played only 14 games in his rookie season and parlayed that into 8 mpg role, a smaller role compared to what PP is getting right now.
