I remember when Lauri Markkanen practically begged for the Mavs to get him.
Said he wanted to play with Luka but I guess Cuban wasn't listening since he wasn't a star player.
Him and Kessler out there making Powell look like trash.
If this team stands pat at the trade deadline Fans need to seriously stop going to the home games that's the only way to get Cuban to open his eyes.

We literally have one pg in Dinwiddie but Hardy and hell even Frank can't get minutes? It's called necessity and Kidd doesn't understand.

I'm on record for wanting both Lauri and Kessler. Our FO just sucks, plain and simple.
But there are fans who think DFS and Maxi are players we can't live without as well. People literally saying why get Lauri when we have Maxi at that time. So it's not just the FO.

I don't want to see Frank. Unless we are about to not have enough players to field a team on any given night. But, fuck man. Down 200pts and Hardy isn't playing mins. Lol.
This is a sinking ship and has been since game 1.

I wanted him too, but to be fair he ended up being a part of a trade package that got Cleveland Donavan Mitchell, and before that was traded from the Bulls to Cavs that involved multiple first round draft picks. So I have to assume we never had the assets to get him even if he wanted to come here.

I think Dinwiddie has proved to be a legit 2nd or 3rd option
The key will be if Luka is willing to play off ball a little more to close out games.
This team also needs to find away with Luka, Wood and Dinwiddie on the floor together to play some form of defense.
I'm guessing those 3 with bullock, DFS or Green need to be on the floor to protect them or Luka and Dinwiddie need to give more effort defensively

Sources report:
Spencer Dinwiddie walked up to Luka in the locker room after the game and said " Now I see what you have to deal with every game, with these scrubs".

Lol when could the Mavs have had Lauri Markannen? He can say he wants to play with Luka all he wants but he realistically was never available.

Luka upgraded to questionable for tonight which probably means he's playing
Wood unlikely to return before the TDL. Are we holding him out to trade?
Kleber now practicing, so should be back within a week or two.

Clearly he was available because he got traded. Whether we had the assets to obtain him is a different story.

Maybe the first trade to the Cavs where he only cost a FRP and a SRP.
Even then, our FRP would have been five years out because of the KP deal and thus not nearly as appealing.
As for the Cleveland->Utah trade where five FRPs traded spots? We had no chance. All the word out of Utah is that they valued him highly even then and would have cost 2-3 FRPs if he was even available at all.

Mavs are kings at blowing easy baskets. Almost an art.

How can the Mavs get Dinwiddie to play the same way he played without Luka now that Luka is back?
If they could figure that out they wouldn't need a 2nd option

It's not baseball. Can't just send Nash to the line every FT.

Luka is dejected AF.
I am convinced that next Thursday is the make-or-break not only of this season but of our tenure with Luka.

Luka with 27 points on 10 shots.
Rest of the team: 26 points on 30 shots.
Microcosm of our season.

Luka sat for 6 minutes. The team managed 6 points in that span.

Which is why I said earlier e kknow Dinwiddie can get his....
But for some reason the Mavs refuse to play luka off ball more. I think Dinwiddie can be aggressive early in games and get buckets with Luka off ball.
But the Mavs simply haven't found that balance between the two players on the floor together

If we lose this game just call it a season. Schedule is brutal going forward. Barring a major trade of course.
