Now for the rest of the who actually do listen...there are 9 teams that are 2-3 games apart in the tanking standings. So fine, Mavs aren't tanking like Memphis, but neither are the 8 other teams. The fact that we're only a game off from them in the let's be terrible party is, to me, more encouraging than discouraging.
And if the Mavs aren't purposely tanking, then it's because MARK CUBAN not RICK CARLISLE said that Mavs were doing it on purpose. When you have the commish keeping a watchful on on you after fining you 600k, then you have to make it seem like you are trying hard to win. That is 100% on Cuban.

This is total B.S. all of the other 8 teams are trying to tank. Even Brooklyn who isn't trying to tank is sitting Mozgov to evaluate younger players. We're the only dumbasses not evaluating our young players in a lost season.
So you have ins with the league office & you know that Silver is making Cuban make Carlisle play all the vets... and you're posting on this forum because???
You don't know that. It's complete speculation & a narrative you conjured up because it agrees with your opinion on the subject. I don't ever remember hearing that Mark Cuban or the league office was making Mavs' lineup decisions in past years. The much more logical conclusion is that the same person whose always made lineup decisions is continuing to make them. That person is Rick Carlisle.
And if we're to take his press conferences seriously, by his own words "That's a coaching decision". Rick says he's making the calls on the lineup, but you know different. Hmmmm...
