Haha the curse of not choosing the Mavs strikes again. So much satisfaction reading this. Now only if it comes true. Eat it

DevinHarriswillstart · 06-20-2017, 09:41 PM

Glad that first round exiter didn't pick us anyway. Saved us from keeping Chandler Parsons.

And wow, Tyson Chandler and the 4th pick for Jordan? That's so weird that words can't describe it.

Underdog · 06-20-2017, 09:50 PM

I can't wait to see Noel blow the F up as our starting center next year -- rub "what could have been" in DeAndra's stupid face.

The Suns, however, are believed to have balked at the overture.

Seriously...Deron, Dwight and now DeAandra. You can add Tyson Chandler too, always running for the biggest paycheck without getting happy

Make sure there is a space available for Mike Conley. I'm not gonna say he regrets being on board with a certain signing(*Spoiler* he does *Spoiler*) but.... it's not off to a good start.

The certain signing you may be speaking of:

STATUS
Day-to-day Parsons (knee) is expected to be a full participant in training camp, Michael Wallace of Grizzlies.com reports. (about 1 day ago)

To be fair we only offered Tyson a 1 year deal if I remember correctly. Then we asked him to wait and see if we could sign DAJ first. I would have left too with the contract PHX offered.

sefant77 · 06-21-2017, 01:06 PM

1y 20m was a pretty fair offer and a fair gamble for him too.

How was that fair when teams were offering him more years and security? BasicLly the Mavs wanted to use him as a rental until they hit Dwight.

With his injury history I would have taken 4/$52 mil over 1/$20 mil

Seriously. 20mill is too generous.

BUT he's a guy who hadn't been healthy a full season in his career before us and he was aging

It's not about fair. It's about a high likelihood of getting injured and having that 20 mill be the last of his career.

Today I bet that the Mavericks will finish higher in the standings than the Clippers. Good or bad bet?

Maybe we should wait and see how free agency turns out first.

As things stand now, that's money in the bank.

sefant77 · 06-28-2017, 09:17 PM

We moved on from a Parsons/Jordan Duo to Barnes/Noel...pretty happy right now, even if its cost us two of Dirks last years...

j0Shi · 06-29-2017, 01:11 AM

Karma is a bitch.

I just hope we keep Noel and sign him long-term. After the core and some key bench members I'd like it if we can bulk up the rest of the roster.

DevinHarriswillstart · 06-29-2017, 11:09 AM

Nerlens can hit free throws. I don't think it can be hammered home enough how important that is from the center position. The fact that Jordan and D. Howard can't hit free throws is a yuuuuge detriment on the court and one of the big reasons teams Howard keeps moving from team to team.

Why the Mavericks should trade for DeAndre Jordan
With trade rumors circling around the Clippers’ All-Star big man, the Mavs could have a golden opportunity.

Why mavsmoneyball should stop writing so many horseshit articles

spreedom · 11-23-2017, 08:39 PM

I would totally welcome DAJ here, provided he's a guy we could re-sign at the end of the season for like $20M/year or thereabouts.

DevinHarriswillstart · 11-23-2017, 09:28 PM

If they take Powell, then I'm all for it and any trade involving him that doesn't have us giving up picks or taking back long term salary.

sefant77 · 11-23-2017, 09:33 PM

Okay, i trade Powell and McRoberts for him and tell him to opt out at the end of the season and fuck off. Done deal.

Cuban is never ever going to trade for Jordan. Not happening. He will never wear the Mavs jersey.

SMC0007 · 11-24-2017, 09:10 AM

F DAJ. I think it's not our place to interfere with his and Clips Karma from the bungled FA move when he held us up. CP3 left and they have some injuries, so I'm happy.

EricaLubarsky · 11-24-2017, 03:45 PM

F him.

I don’t care that he spurned us. That’s business.

Dude is a man child and a HAN.

Underdog · 01-29-2018, 06:47 PM

sefant77 · 01-29-2018, 06:57 PM

I hope they ship him to a shit ass franchise in a shit ass city.

EricaLubarsky · 01-29-2018, 07:01 PM

I'd trade a chair for him

and then lock him in that room by hooking the chair on the door handle

To be fair I think he's on a shit ass franchise. They've never won shit and they don't appear to be close anymore. Let him rot in LA. Too bad his boy Parsons can't join him somehow.

Must spread rep. Also, great idea for a screenplay

Just realized that last comment of mine was so LA!

What are the worst franchises/cities?

Mine?

Worst franchises
1) Nets
2) Bobcats
3) Kings
4) Clippers
5) Pelicans

Worst NBA cities
1) Cleveland
2) Indianapolis
3) OKC
4) SLC
5) Houston

MavzMan · 01-30-2018, 12:18 PM

Nets, Bobcats, and Kings totally agree. Clippers move into that category with the latest trade. I don't think I would include the Pelicans in your top 5 just because they have AD and made a big splash with Boogie. So they at least have legit all-stars (even plural) to root for and somehow/someway to possibly improve. I would probably replace Pelicans with the Magic and maybe even add the Hornets.

Cities is tough. I feel the need to defend OKC just because I'm from OK. I'll admit this is probably the least glamorous of any NBA city, but they are intentionally improving with Bricktown and come up with their own distinct identity (rowing). Plus they are definitely at/near the top in fan loyalty given that this is the only professional sport in the state.

I would consider adding Minnesota to the City list. It's so cold there enough of the year that downtown created walkways between the buildings. Utah is definitely in the list of not being a destination spot, but they do have fan loyalty. Memphis could be a possibly top 5 as well.
