Haha I never said I wanted him fired. I said he had terrible end game management that cost us games. Luckily we don't have to worry about that when we when by 40+.
If your analysis of end game strategy is as strong as the way you end sentences then I'm not sure you have a whening method.

Has an NBA team ever won back to back games by more than 40 points? I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere, so I'm assuming it's happened before.

Tough week coming up. Houston, LAC, and a surprisingly decent Phoenix.

I'd imagine the Warriors have at some point

Apparently these Sunday afternoon games are scheduled specifically for the European markets.

I don't know if I've ever seen another team as mentally soft as the Rockets. Let's go Mavs.

Mavs are just a much better team than the Rockets. Good to see the Mavs start to click. Rockets have no depth and will be exposed in the playoffs.

Solid ****ing win. Makes me so happy to finally have a team that can compete legitimately . The Clippers will be another true test

I know it's still early in the season but what a turnaround for this organization. What we thought would maybe be an 8 seed is looking like a top 4 team.

K Love would sure look awesome in a Mavs uniform. Too bad Horford never gave us a serious look.

I'm hoping this version of Hardaway is for real!

probably isn't, bc if it was, he'd be the greatest shooter ever. However, if he can just keep up the MUCH improved decision making, he can go from a liability to a legit nba starter. The guy has above avg athleticism, plays solid D, when focused, has decent handles, and has a beautifully efficient stroke. If he sticks with catch and shoot, and aggressive drives, he's the guy is thought he'd be. However, I don't trust it.
I don't trust it either- he's too streaky. I still want him on the bench unit, and keep Dodo and Seth on the starting rotation.

Of course if THJ comes out on Tuesday and drops another 20 on the Clippers, that'll likely solidify his starting spot for a while. Which ultimately I think won't work

I wonder if the officials will be ready and willing to bail out another LA team at the AAC?

Big test tonight.

Clippers have the best roster (when healthy) from top to bottom. They'll have multiple guys that can check Luka.

This is the type of game KP needs to dominate to relieve some pressure from Luka (who will be harassed non stop by PBev with help from Kawhi or PG).

A lot of people in the area probably don't know it, but the stars are actually the hottest team in town right now.

Mavs are a close second tho.

So they started off 1-7-1 and are now 15-8-2. I'm not really a hockey guy, but is this type of run unprecedented in the NHL?

City Edition rankings

Mavs rank 29 out of 30. The only reason they didn't rank lower was because Memphis is the only team not doing a city edition jersey

Not unprecedented but it's insane how one period changed the trajectory of the team. Most people think the coach and/or the gm were getting fired that night if they lost. It's pretty remarkable how things changed so fast and even more amazing is they have kept it going in mostly dominating fashion.

I hate the font on the Mavs "city" jersey and the court...but...I like the color scheme! Looks cool on tv.

The color scheme is waaaaay too Seahawks. Did Russ get drafted by the Mavs too? Ha

If the entire jersey was dark blue with the neon green, and with a normal script, it would look pretty cool.

Well, that kind of shooting was bound to happen at some point. Even Luka was chucking up bricks

These jerseys suck. It's crazy they paid for these, when there were at least 5-6 created by free-lancers for fun essentially
