I mean, I would say the good new is that Brunson's trade value is very high right now. His numbers as a starter are way up.

I don't like bringing in Simmons and Kemba.....both jumpers are broke...

Kemba is done as a starter in this league. Those injuries killed him

Found this interesting. Sportrac tracks how players are performing compared to their respective salaries.

Reggie Bullock is third from last. Shows that it doesn't matter if he is only making "MLE" type money. He is still utter trash.

If there is a bigger more harsh word for utter, I'd only enjoy this more.

No surprise at THJ on this list. I would have guaranteed that we wouldn't be better just by giving him a new bigger deal. It's almost as if you could somehow tell that we weren't good enough and needed (still need) change in order to improve.

EricaLubarsky · 12-18-2021, 03:18 PM

Bullock out with COVId protocols

DevinHarriswillstart · 12-18-2021, 03:23 PM

Reggie, Luka, WCS, Josh, Frank, and Eugene all out vs Minnesota. Only Reggie has covid apparently so I guess that's good news.

BPo001 · 12-20-2021, 09:42 AM

I don’t know where to put this..

Shams Charania: The Dallas Mavericks are planning to sign guard Theo Pinson of NBA G League’s Maine Celtics via hardship, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. – via Twitter ShamsCharania

EricaLubarsky · 12-20-2021, 10:14 AM

He shot 11% from the field and 0% from three so what a great pickup. Really matches what we’re going for this season.

Hopefully he can’t dribble or pass either. Our kind of triple threat!

And if he can step out of bounds for a few turnovers. That would be a 4 year contract in the making.

DevinHarriswillstart · 12-20-2021, 01:01 PM

Hey, we signed Marquese Chriss. He shoots about 20% from three, so right on the money.

He and Luka will be good friends in 3 weeks.

Dorian and Maxi are shooting a higher percentage from 3 than thj, Luka and KP.

Heh but actually a disservice to Wonder Woman and her team who actually accomplished something

SMC0007 · 12-20-2021, 05:21 PM

Reggie Bullock is getting flamed on Twitter. It's funny and tragic.

EricaLubarsky · 12-20-2021, 06:31 PM

Maxi now out.

EricaLubarsky · 12-20-2021, 06:34 PM

Out tomorrow:

Luka - ankle
KP - foot
Bullock - Covid
Green - Covid
WCS - personal
Omoruyi - Covid
Franky - isick

SMC0007 · 12-20-2021, 06:39 PM

We have a game tomorrow? Hmmpft

saclare · 12-21-2021, 12:04 PM

So...yea, I don't have much to contribute here. We might be able to trade for a piece or two, but with a forward look. It would be silly to sell out for this season with this roster that is so far away from competing.

I'm plum out of ideas there, so I guess I might already be on team tank as the best and quickest way to infuse this team with talent.

Any other ideas?

DevinHarriswillstart · 12-21-2021, 12:07 PM

Nope. Tanking is the right move. I think even Luka would agree as he is part of the problem. KP is made of glass. Most of the B squad can't hit a basket. What hope is there?

Getting a top 10 pick should be the goal. We need assets.

saclare · 12-21-2021, 12:41 PM

I still like and believe in the Luka and KP pairing. We are semi-stuck with THJ unless we somehow find a trade suitor.

If the FO wants to take a hard look here, you almost have to get something for Brunson. Paying him will put us in a financially tough spot, but it's the only other option. As much as I like Brunson and what he has developed into, not sure I want to tie up that much space to him. In a different roster scenario, it's a no brainer, but the flexibility is key.

Basically, if they don't resign THJ, it would make it much easier to keep Brunson. Hindsight is 20/20, but they should have struck early on an extension to Brunson and let THJ walk.

Everyone else is fodder at this moment. DFS may be the only other one with decent trade value, maaaybe Maxi.

Dallas41 · 12-21-2021, 03:35 PM

I honestly I haven't watched this team in the last 4 or 5 games.

Having said that there's no way with luka on this roster your blowing it up and as much as we might hate it right now by years end we are still most likely going to be witnessing a 6th seeded squad because the west has all kinds of issues.

Cuban will put his usual duct tape on it and roll into the playoffs with the annual we love our boys in blue slogan.

You might be right, but all this g league Covid craziness could shake things up a bit. They also haven’t exactly told us what is going on with Luka right now, and there is always a reason they can come up with to sit KP.

DevinHarriswillstart · 12-21-2021, 04:42 PM

I actually think bringing up G league players to fill in for the NBA might be entertaining. These guys get a shot to see what they got. And the Mavs play like G League most nights anyway, so I'd like to see something different.

SMC0007 · 12-21-2021, 11:22 PM

Damn. We better get a big haul if we trade JB. He just keeps getting better and better.

Bullock better be back on the pine when we are all healthy. Starting JB is the easiest coaching decision Kidd can make.

BPo001 · 12-22-2021, 03:49 PM

Luka and Burke now out due to Covid.

Mavs signing Brandon Knight to a 10 day contract.

Literally dudes that have been out of the league getting signed because teams just need bodies. 40 year old Joe Johnson just signed with Boston.

Thanks Adam Silver

Maybe Dirk, JJB and Fin could dust off their jerseys.

You joke but that’s about the only thing that would get me excited about this season

Where's Monta Ellis at?

Dallas Mavericks PR: Mavericks forward Eugene Omoruyi recently had surgery on his right big toe. The injury was sustained in a @TexasLegends game on December 15. His expected return to basketball activities is approximately 4-6 months. – via Twitter MavsPR

Woof. He needs the developmental time, seems to have the intangibles.

Mavs already waived him

Makes sense with the time frame. We shall see.

EricaLubarsky · 01-02-2022, 12:37 PM

Lucas of the Rockets screamed at Porter Jr. and Wood last night. Seems like there's a rift there.

I wouldn't want Porter anyway with his inability to control his temper and I doubt that the Rockets would choose Lucas over Porter. Still, if you want Wood, I think he's on the block.

mac222b · 01-02-2022, 03:54 PM

I coveted Wood when he was a FA. He’s on a good contract for one more year. P’nR with Luka would be potentially lethal. I guess it would depend on the cost. Betting that some team is willing to throw a lottery protected pick or better their way. I’d be interested to see him on a winning team for once. Out if it means including Josh Green or Frank.

Melonhead · 01-02-2022, 09:22 PM

Wood is highly coveted. I doubt we have anything they want.

But a guy can dream

FreshJive · 01-02-2022, 09:45 PM

Silas can’t catch a break
