The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[otakuant]

Love the hustle and effort from Gafford today. Definitely a step in the right direction for my Mavs.

 

[elpablo21]

Damn Norm leaking

 

[Moheezy]

The Mavs suddenly look like a deep team and this is without Lively.

 

[B Sox]

Wish the Celtics had gotten Fontecchio. He’s a player.

 

[B Sox]

Sending a double to Harden up top is dumb. Clips made them pay.

 

[datznasty]

LoL at the Mavs destroying the Thunder with 2 guys OKC could have used. Gafford had 19 and 9 in 17 minutes

 

[N41D]

The Mavs suddenly look like a deep team and this is without Lively.

And Exum who was HOOPING.

They got a ton of optionally and suddenly a ton of length and athleticism.

They gotta go do it and prove it out over time, but this is group got something.

 

[pmatic]

… and he’s 6’9”/6’10” compared to 6’5”

 

[picasso swerve]

Mavs im def rooting for, they got a squad squad now fr.

 

[finessence]

My bad when I looked on basketball reference it was a glance. Thought it said 6’9”. My bad

 

[N41D]

Don’t care what those heights say, them dudes don’t play the same.

PJ plays bigger because he’s way longer and more athletic.

 

[smedroc]

Now Luka knows how Bron felt when Clarkson joined the Cavs.

 

[CJMcfly26]

Let’s go Spurs . At the Nets game

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

With what…?

They flat out got better. Ain’t no two ways around it.

They just can’t miss on whatever move for a wing comes this summer. If they do, it’s probably chalked.

But these two moves right-sized roles all over the roster. Maxi BIG BIG winner of those deals.

Welp, time to get irrationally high expectations based off acquiring just 2 role players

I swear I almost tagged you when Maxi randomly scored 20 points the other week. Was gonna say I don't remember the last time he's scored anywhere near that

Now he's suddenly having a decent shooting month so far. I had all but counted him out as being a rotation guy. He fits way better with guys like Lively and Gafford

Lively, Exum and Jones are all having better than expected seasons imo, so that's pretty good if they're your 8th, 9th and 10th best players

But yeah, it's definitely nasty that they don't have any Firsts for all those consecutive years. Weirdo process

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Lakers make no moves Thursday - "they made no moves!!"

Lakers sign Dinwiddie with no risk at all " This makes no sense!!"

 

[headdetective]

Watchin the Spurs play and they legit do not pass Wemby the ball.

Why he doesn’t touch the ball everytime down the court is bewildering

 

[pdino]

Thibs starting Taj Gibson in the year of 2024

I know this hit way harder for you when you typed it out and read it to yourself .

 

[pmatic]

I just know this is gonna piss off osh kosh bosh .

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Yeah, hit harder to the people it was directed to.

 

[Benny Hinn]

Mavs on the #NoExcuses list now?

 

[dacomeup]

Mavs on the #NoExcuses list now?

This thread has like half of the NBA on the #NoExcuses list

 

[addict4sneakers]

Mavs a legit contender if Kyrie is healthy. No excuses

 

[Coupé It]

Of course the Mavs are on the no excuses list.

They don’t have anything left to sell to get better.

This is it. This is who they’re riding with. They’re all in.
