Fair enough. To be fair to Carlisle, he earned that reputation when the Mavs were in the playoffs every year & it made more sense to bring rookies along slowly.
Also, in all fairness, I'm a HUGE tank first fan. Outside of it impacting DSJ's minutes or Dirk's, I want the Mavs to do every thing they possibly can to tank---right up to the line they'd draw the attention of the league office. So, I'm always going to come across as a biased fan who wants the Mavs to take extra measures to tank.
