Bobby Marks
@BobbyMarks42
The $1.8M salary of Tyrell Terry has been removed from the Dallas Mavericks team salary, league sources tell ESPN.
Dallas applied for a career ending injury exclusion for Terry and were approved by the NBA.
The Mavericks projected tax bill decreases from $60.4M to $53.7M.

I doubt Noel will be waived. He wasn't traded to a team looking to shed his contract and it's fully guaranteed.
This summer he can become a UFA if the Pistons reject his team option.
They pay him for the next few months either way. Unless the Pistons really want his roster spot, there's not a lot of reason to believe he will be available.

Mike Curtis: #Pistons center Nerlens Noel is out for tonight?s game against the #Spurs. The injury report says he?s not with the team. 4 hours ago ? via Twitter MikeACurtis2
Noel couod very well just be injured, but the fact that he isn?t with the team leaves the door open that it?s possible?

Maxi returning tonight. Hope they ease him back with like 8-10 minutes off the bench. He may not be our white knight and savior, but damn it if he's close to our only hope of shoring up this defense and making an impact.

Mavs to be the next super team.....LeBron and Draymond will join the team according to Bill Simmons.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/lebron-ja...183932839.html
Do I believe it? Nope. But kind of fun to think about it.

And no shooting! Unless Luka learns to become a better spot up 3 point shooter. Not Lebron?s strength either.

Before you all wish for Cuban to trade Luka for a bunch of picks and scraps, remember there is no guarantee that this org would know how to rebuild and do anything since Cuban proved he was the stupidest guy in the room circa 2012 by misjudging the ramifications of the CBA via dry powder, having the 8th pick in 2017 and getting a generational superstar in 2018 then botching the 2019 free agency period and missing on getting a true young 2nd piece in the 2020 draft ala Bane or Maxey who went well after Green and then whiffing on the mid level exemption by spending on an unplayable Big in McGee. But ya lets go ahead and blow it up so we can watch Mark and gang have a series of 20 and 62 seasons.

Nobody stopped the Mavs front office from offering Brunson's dad a job a year ago or so. As Mavs Moneyball guys and others have reported, the Mavs never offered him the big money they could have early on to ensure he didn't bolt. The Knicks father in the org stuff started after it was clear that the Mavs org was screwing the pooch on resigning Brunson. WE suck

There were rumors of the the Knicks going hard for Brunson long before FA started like the summer before.
You won't get any FO apologists around here, but to act like Brunson wasn't a bad actor in one of the biggest and most obvious tamperings in NBA history is silly. He is saying newspaper stuff to make him sound like the good guy. I'm fine with that, but he still wanted to be a Knick with him being THE pg at the end of the day.
The bigger crime was letting an asset like that walk for nothing. That's on Donnie Nelson for structuring that contract.

Agreed. And IMO, his comments about Dallas is fake roses from JB.

Maybe of all time too.
Like, he said he didn't get us the correct personnel this season because he didn't realize how the game had changed? WTF does that mean?
He just doesn't know what he is doing. The loudest people always have the least to say.

Game keep changing or he thinks its changing. Remember when he thought he would be the smartest guy in the room with the DUST chip? The game is not changing that much. Even if it is, everyone is playing with the same rules. Saying he was caught off guard really says a lot.

Holy fn shit. I hope the NBA takes that pick away for this blatant tanking. Its the worst tanking job ive seen and Kidd just comes straight out and saya every single thing except the actual word "tank". What an unmitigated disaster...that is perfectly fitting for our season.
Cuban and Nico are a problem. Cuban because he's been a weasel. Nico because he will swallow any load Cuban tosses out. He doesn't have enough skins to say No about something. He's happy to have the job. Nico also said "ppl forget about frank", " Kidd is our guy". Our top 2 guys in the org are not capable.
Unfortunately morons will still buy tickets.

I don't know how Kidd keeps his job after that. And I'm now thinking Kidd has no actual control over the team.
But that's even more of a reason for fans to check out. Cuban running everything means that it's a carousel of shit.

That whole presser tells me that Kidd isn't running shit. He won't even say that he disagrees with it. He obviously doesn't agree with it unless he's sitting up there lying on the FO, which has the highest odds of him getting fired.

I?ve seen tons of Knicks fans today, acting like this is the first example of tanking, and it?s hilarious, but I just assumed these are people who barely pay attention to the NBA. What is the disaster here? Kidd didn?t lie? The worst thing that could happen is a fine.

Well. I'm talking about the timing of shutting it down. Yea, let's just yank it hard left and aim for keeping the pick now. We aren't in control of anything we are left trying to do. That's part of the disaster. We had a fn tank in the bag but we managed to fvck that up. Then Kidd gets up there and says everything except the word tank and points the finger at Cuban and Nico. Cuban got fined $600k in 2018 for basically this same thing. Everything about this is a disaster. The season in general is too.

Yeah. They should have started several games earlier. Maybe they have a hard time telling Luka no.
