Is it over for Mavs?

[90sgoat]

They can't make the playins now right?

What a shit show of a season.:banghead:

[ImKobe]

I wouldn't be 100% on it yet. Grizzlies have no reason to play their core guys but they can win without them. OKC lost to Lakers' B-team at home and recently lost to the Pacers' back-ups so I think it's still in play for Dallas.

[Duderonomy]

Yes. They have to run the table and hope OKC loses again and win 2 road play-ins games then play Denver in the 1st round.

Not resigning Brunson really bite them in the ass. Better luck next time.

Duh. A major part of it is because kyrie's actual impact sucks on teams, unlike for say kevin durant.

Kyrie is the ultimate ceiling raiser, but barely does anything to the floor.

If you want to win a ring with a second star, there would be few better.

There are few ever who is as clutch a scorer as Kyrie, against any kind of defense, in any situation. Peak Durant is the only other current player who you can count on to just make the shots in the spotlight.

Lol. Kyrie would be potential if he's actually serious on letting his teams win with him contributing a lot. But so far we've seen nothing from him but Ls, which is why he leaves a lot to be desired.

It's because he is miscast with teams like Boston (Tatum/Brown), Nets (Durant/Harden) and Mavs (Luka).

He'd be perfect on Bucks, Toronto, Spurs, Indy, etc. Defensive minded teams with a strong system hierarchy. Say what you want about Lebron, but those Cavs were a tough defensive team and Lebron like Giannis, don't mind taking their shots in the 4th, where as Tatum and Luka live for those moments.

Lol it's not just about his lonesome success with lebron lmao. I mean we've already seen him subsequently play for teams that could contend for a title at least, with the nets or the celtics. But obviously, he's a cancer. He chooses to do things that would go in his own favor and not things that would help his team achieve the ultimate goal. Imho for me, that's an obvious sign of selfishness and stubborness. At least durant was willing to do anything to make a chip happen with another team but unfortunately, he can't do all things by himself alone. And kyrie was a big factor as to why he's ultimately such a hindrance to that.

[90sgoat]

I just don't see how people think he is a cancer on the court? Maybe off the court.

On the court, how is he a cancer? He plays bad defense and he doesn't pass a lot, but he is no different there than any other scoring point guard.

[ArbitraryWater]

OP failing at basic math

[HylianNightmare]

Shocker

[Mask the Embiid]

Ummm I don’t feel a paragraph would adequately describe what I want to say so I’ll just quote a chorus from a random song and post a gif I suppose to some it up

Yes, something like that. He's quite skilled but how many times did he refused to play when he should have? I think he, kd and harden only played for like less than 20 games while they were on nets uniform.

[Xiao Yao You]

Tim MacMahon: Sources: Luka Doncic will sit out after the first quarter tonight vs. the Bulls (https://*********.com/social/). Five key Mavs, including Kyrie Irving, were ruled out this morning.

must have a games clause in his contract

I hope he goes out and wins, then forces a trade in the post-season.

It's Slovenia Night

[Xiao Yao You]

It's Slovenia Night

nice of him to give them a whole quarter!

[BigShotBob]

It's Slovenia Night

What is that

[Nike D'Antoni]

Doncic is playing? Or not?

[kawhileonard2]

Bulls sat there players which makes sense since they are stuck at 10th.

[bison]

What is that

A tribute to Dallas’ large and storied Slovenian population obviously.

[L.Kizzle]

Dallas was blowing them out by 20+. Just checked the score and they're down by 8 now.

[ArbitraryWater]

why tf did they tank this

unreal

[kawhileonard2]

Retarded

[L.Kizzle]

Did they pull Luka. He only played 13 minutes.

[Druckenmiller]

DalAss Mavericks idea if a big off-season addition was adding Christian Would

When Kyrie got traded to the Mavs I told my friends that the team would fail like the Rondo Mavs did. God dammit was I right or what
