Give them a good fight, but lose in the final

injuries
Deron- out
Barea - out
Harris - out

Bogut will play
Dirk may play

Bryan_Wilson · 11-23-2016, 12:23 PM

Easy win.

Skywalker · 11-23-2016, 12:58 PM

Fuck DeAndre

Melonhead · 11-23-2016, 01:46 PM

Dirk/Deron questionable...Id say wait till Cleveland Friday. No sense in having them out there tonight. F Jordan. I hope Salah starts some shit with him

Why even bring them back for Cleveland? I say let me rest and move one step closer to the lottery pick.

The Mavs' ER will clip the Angels' wings and feed them to Tex the Otter....

Mavs - 114
Clipped - 109

Should be an easy L, the Clippers are a bad matchup for us. Hopefully the guys deliver. I took a look at the schedule btw, a 2-18 start is definitely a possibility. With teams genuinely trying to win this year, we could have a massive, 3-4 game lead against anyone, maybe even including the Sixers. Those guys are actually decent at home, they are in almost every games, and I think they already won 3 in the Wells Fargo. Cuban might be right, and this is the year where it pays out to be bad.

Whiteside is going to trash DeAndra!

Oh wait, he stayed in Miami because Riley did him dirty

yahyes · 11-23-2016, 06:58 PM

Let's have some fun and watch Dirk and Barnes try to get this team out the gutter.

Melonhead · 11-23-2016, 07:01 PM

Well hells bells, Dirk is suiting up tonight.

Restricted minutes but that's probably worse than playing. I just wanna see youth and a loss

473 till 30,000.

This is definitely not the game I want to see Dirk return

This team isn't tanking if that's why you're saying loss. You think a "youth" team with Dirk and other vets can't get the team to .500?

That too. It's pretty selfish to say the team should tank while Dirk is around. If the team loses, they are one step away from lottery yah.

DevinHarriswillstart · 11-23-2016, 08:09 PM

Ugh, losing to the Clippers is never good. I wouldn't mind seeing this as a win if possible.

I'm in the camp counting the L's actually lol. I will clarify when I say tank, and I think others as well... We aren't talking about intentionally losing but what I personally am looking for is for us to not go out of our way to win either. If the game is close don't extend Dirk's minutes or any of the older vets just to try to "eek" out a win. If you want him there to close the game manage his minutes accordingly. If we win because Barnes, Seth, or one of the others had a great game then that's positive for them as players. If we bench them all to play a bunch of old vets to get to 38 wins on the year that would be nothing short of a disaster.

Anyone with a link pleaseee

DevinHarriswillstart · 11-23-2016, 08:56 PM

Finney-smith sucks. I know he isn't supposed to be good anyway, but I'm ready to see some Brussino for the offense.

Bryan_Wilson · 11-23-2016, 09:00 PM

I've seen more cutting in this first quarter then we saw the first 15 games combined.

DevinHarriswillstart · 11-23-2016, 09:02 PM

Clean block. Such BS.

That was definitely a, "give the call to the guy with commercials" whistle.

DevinHarriswillstart · 11-23-2016, 09:07 PM

Austin Rivers doing his Reggie Miller act.

God the Mavs are bad.

YEah that was embarrassing. Goodness. Nice reserve player but that was shades of Reggie.

All because of carelessness with the basketball.

Bryan_Wilson · 11-23-2016, 09:10 PM

Man I swear we do some of the dumbest things lmao... First off I thought Simba had Dirk open there for a long while, then why is nobody running to the ball everyone just waiting for him to throw it in. Bad all around.

Anderson might be the worst player on the team.

Bryan_Wilson · 11-23-2016, 09:13 PM

Simba...... Dunk the fking ball

Melonhead · 11-23-2016, 09:13 PM

This is so sad to watch. Dirk working to get open, dirk on defense...nice to see him hit a shot here and there though

If he's not he's definitely very close to it at this point.

Bogut/Anderson for SOMETHING, ANYTHING

Anderson is what he is. Athletic, especially around the rim, but does a lot of things that make you scratch your head, especially his passing.

DevinHarriswillstart · 11-23-2016, 09:15 PM

I actually have no clue why Brussino isn't playing. He provides both playmaking and scoring on a team that desperately needs both. I haven't seen jack shit from Finney-smith or Anderson that has given them the right to those minutes.

Vinsanity · 11-23-2016, 09:15 PM

Justin Anderson sucks. No feel for the game, very uncoordinated. He's athletic but that's literally it.

Good to see Dirk though!

tap2390 · 11-23-2016, 09:16 PM

Simba's regression is easily the biggest disappointment of the season thus far. He went from borderline starter to barely a rotation guy. I don't get it.

Melonhead · 11-23-2016, 09:17 PM

the LA announcers make me throw up. This game is making me throw up.

DevinHarriswillstart · 11-23-2016, 09:17 PM

Can we temporarily shut the boards down with the fact that Austin Rivers is doing this?

Yeah after preseason I thought he could challenge for a 20-25min role. Boy was I an idiot.

The little bit ive seen of him he looks lost on carlisle flow offense. Maybe his defensive assignments play a part as well (I know, theyre all horrible on defense haha)

EDIT:

Bryan_Wilson · 11-23-2016, 09:19 PM

Brussino 3!!!!!!! Better take him out.
