This will be an interesting offseason. I have no clue what we should expect. I want us to keep THJ, WCS, and Trey Burke though. MKG? I dunno. He doesn't do much offensively but somehow has a positive player efficiency normally. He also really doesn't fill the stat sheet. It's strange. Box scores don't really show us what he does out there to help the team succeed.

I didn't even think about it til now the delay of free agency and draft and next season. I read draft is October 16th and free agency is two days later, then the season is supposed to start December 1st but supposedly Silver is already considering moving it back more. Probably will be in the bubble again I'm guessing.

It was always a mistake to question a 21 year old kid in the playoffs being able to play with a rolled ankle.

This me

DevinHarriswillstart · 08-23-2020, 06:20 PM

Me too. Crow eaten. I'm just in denial about Luka's greatness. I didn't think he should have played...

Someone may say stupid things but the people who wait in the shadows to neg you or shame you are douchebags themselves. Unless I saw that same person guaranteeing a win they really have no right.

In related news, Montrezly was 2 points, 1 rebound and a negative 19.

Sure looks like he got called out for his racist comment, tried to apologize to Luka then shrunk.

I don't understand your post. I was not talking about you. I don't know what you're even referencing.

That's why if your going to call someone out, just do it.

Thought you were referring to my question to those who thought Luka should sit this one out.
I thought he should have sat out but sure glad he didn't!

Or, maybe don't be paranoid that someone is talking about you when you shouldn't have a reason to think they are.

If you haven't negged me then I'm not talking about you. Should be pretty simple to figure out.

MFFL · 08-23-2020, 06:57 PM

The NBA keeps telling Luka to "wait your turn, young pup"

And Luka keeps saying "no"

Casey Smith should get a game ball for this one.

No you must have missed my post where I even sided with you because I said something even worse that we should forfeit lol. I really thought we had no chance down 21 with Luka limping and KP out. I've learned my lesson not to doubt Luka anymore.

I thought we had no chance when it was announced KP wasn't playing.
Hell, I thought we had no chance in this game after seeing Luka leave the floor Friday night even thinking KP would be playing.

Did you hear Doris Burke (I think it was her) in the Celts/Sixers game say that the Mavs need a Charles Oakley type on their team to protect Luka and KP?

I actually agree but not sure it has to be a rotation player.
Too bad Boban doesn't have a bit of a mean streak.

Marcus Morris has a little of that in him and I wouldn't be upset if we somehow sign him in the off-season.

I was ALL about Morris before the Clips got him. Solid 2 way player with toughness

Fair enough, I thought you could see who neg reps on here.

No way those two blocks negate his total series performance. Hell even Playoff P makes a good play or two. I don't mean to shine negativity on a good night but these things can't be ignored especially if we want to continue to do well in the playoffs.

I don't know where you're getting the idea that i don't know who did it.

Anyway this is dragging on and it seems like I'm all upset at getting negged I'm not. Moving on...

LukaThaDonPart2 · 08-23-2020, 07:25 PM

East 2nd round looks like Raptors/Celtics and Bucks/Heat. Two good series.

EricaLubarsky · 08-23-2020, 07:29 PM

Imma let you keep talkin bout Doncic, but can we talk about Burke too?

25-4-5 on 71% and 80% from three including a three in OT when we couldn't find a bucket.

He was my fav non-star until this series. I hope he keeps regressing.

BPo001 · 08-23-2020, 07:30 PM

Luka is the youngest player in NBA history to hit a buzzer beater in the playoffs.

Even funnier are the fans that were upset about Broek. I like Broek, but Burke was the number 10 pick in his draft for those that remember. Other players in that draft...Giannis, Gobert, Hardaway jr...all taken after Burke.

LukaThaDonPart2 · 08-23-2020, 07:33 PM

Suns could have Luka and Booker right now. Luka and Booker.

Thankfully the owner has ties to Arizona and wanted Ayton. Then Sacramento chose Marvin Bagley not terrible but he's a 14 and 7 guy who can't shoot. This is looking like Houston and Portland passing on MJ.
