This team has something. If Bertans can get his shot back we can compete with anyone. Missing a big presence in the lane but the team defense is gelling.


So strange that a guy like Boban can't get minutes in this league. I grew up watching Mark Eaton and James Donaldson, and Boban has more skills than them. Makes me wonder if teams would even know how to use Dream these days. How dare you expect an entry pass on the block? If you can't play pick and roll, shoot 3's, and straight line drive defenders, your baseline magic has no place here.

I think we'll see Chriss get rotation minutes when he's available. As for Boban, idk why he didn't get at least a couple minutes against Utah but I'll begrudgingly admit that I've been mostly impressed with Kidds rotations thus far.

Did the Mavs win the trade or no?

Wizards fans now think it was a Dinwiddie escape tank job. Reality tells me it's a guy who is finally healthy and benefitting from playing with a transcendent teammate who draws attention as well as creates. I don't expect him to keep it at this level, but the variables are certainly different here

What a bunch of bitter Betty's. I don't get why they're so upset. Their team was going to stink no matter what.

Seems like we've been in 5th place trying to catch Utah and hold off Denver for about 3 months now.

This team playing a great game tonight. Luka picks up right where he left off!

Hell of a game. I'm beginning to get my hopes up and think we have legit title equity. Not favorites or anything but seems like we are one of few teams that might have a legit shot.

It's at least fun to think about…

Gotta hope CP3 and draymond don't come back 100% this season. We still need those teams to be in a weakened state in order to beat them.

Because of how stacked their roster is. They're still better than us when they're at full strength.

Team is playing great. Dinwiddie is a perfect fit and has been a revelation. I still think we're too undersized to compete for the West but we would absolutely give a team like the Warriors fits (with or without Draymond).

Oddly I'm more scared of the teams beneath us (TWolves w/KAT and Nuggets w/Jokic in particular).

Yea I'm worried that we may get exposed by good big men. But if it works out right, there's a chance we could not play a team with a legit big man so that may not be a huge problem.

Gobert isn't a legit big man?

I think we could give either of those teams a run for their money at full strength, but agree we are much better off if they are without Dray or CP3 if we had to match up with them in the playoffs...hopefully, Chris isn't able to go round one and the Suns get bounced. The idea of Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. making it back to the Nuggs in time for the playoffs is scary.

Not in any sense that would frighten me. Like, yea we dont have anyone that can match up with him physically, but he's borderline useless on offense if he can't dunk the ball. It's the versatile bigs that scare me (Ayton, Jokic, KAT).

There's a reason why Gobert is almost unplayable during the playoffs, Luka would feast. I'm not scared not scared of the Jazz in the playoffs, they would honestly be my preferred matchup…

Here's some context. If he's worried about it during a regular season game then he's going to be absolutely shook during the playoffs

haha its all good man...I wasn't being hostile.

It was a reference from Rudy Gobert's comments and thought it was funny.

Got the living **** kicked out of us. Lost by 30 points to a team that isn't even going to the playoffs.

1 loss to okc, 1 loss to Orlando, and now a loss to the knicks.

The jazz and thuggets both won tonight. Heck the top 7 teams in the west have won recently. The mavs are the only team in that bunch with a recent loss.

The mavs can't afford to lose to Houston unless they want to go to the play in tournament. Things are too tight and losing to bottom feeders is really starting to hurt.
