Yeah the chances that the Clippers lose at home to BOTH the Jazz and the Rockets? Very small.

I agree that the Mavs should play it safe the next couple of games and have a healthy squad for the playoffs.

Idk who initiated this, but you definitely had a lot to say about it. Now for the sake of the board, you want to go to DMs. I enjoy talking ball with you, but I'm glad your reality isn't forced on everyone else regarding that.

It's not "my" reality, buddy. But yeah, nobody's forcing anything on anyone, certainly not me.

Go Mavs.

DLive just lost his mom. Super strong family man who lost his dad at eight and became super close to his mom after.

What the fuck??! How??? Omg i feel so horrible for him.

Jesus that?s horrible. If you know anything about him, you know that he was extremely close with his mom and she was probably the most important person in his life. My heart really goes out to him.

DevinHarriswillstart · 04-12-2024, 07:12 PM

That news is so devastating. I lost my mom to cancer as well. Just a cruel and unforgiving disease.

And the fact that he lost both of his parents at 20. Ugh.....

DevinHarriswillstart · 04-12-2024, 08:10 PM

That D by OMax is oh so pretty.

DevinHarriswillstart · 04-12-2024, 08:13 PM

OMax just ended Wiseman's career.

blessednegr0 · 04-12-2024, 08:19 PM

We need to get Gafford out of the game. We will not get the 4 spot.

blessednegr0 · 04-12-2024, 08:21 PM

Also, the fact that the Clippers with no starters can blow out the Suns the other night... Even though they didn't end up winning. Shows exactly why Luka is the MVP. How the hell we losing to Detroit with only Luka, Kyrie and Lively out?

Because the team doesn't care and you can see it. This is a rest and get ready for the playoffs game.

I get it. It's frustrating to see DETROIT going ham right now even against the backups. Detroit has a shit squad.

DevinHarriswillstart · 04-12-2024, 09:15 PM

OMax with a good game.

Josh Green bleh.

DevinHarriswillstart · 04-12-2024, 09:16 PM

Wow, Hardy scoring points. Never saw that coming...derp.

Thespiralgoeson · 04-12-2024, 10:15 PM

Small sample size, but it looks like Omax is gonna work out just fine.

Also, if Hardy isn?t our go-to 6th man next year, something is really wrong. I can easily see him being a 15 ppg Type of guy with consistent minutes.

Kinda bizarre we lost when Omax, Hardy, AND Powell had big games. I mean, Powell grabbing 10 rebounds might never happen again.

Well PJ, Exum, DJJ, THJ and Gafford all did pretty much nadda.

This is frustrating, because the Clippers just lost to Utah. HCA may have been unlikely, but if they Mavs had won this game, it would have still been possible. Oh well..

Odds Omax is better than Green by next season?

SMC0007 · 04-12-2024, 11:57 PM

The Mavs suck! They cant even beat the Piston! Psh.

He might honestly be better than Green right now.

Thespiralgoeson · 04-13-2024, 12:06 AM

The seeding of almost everyone outside of the Mavs and Clippers really is gonna come down to the last game of the season. With Denver losing to the Spurs, OKC is now the top seed, and we definitely want it to stay that way. OKC is by far and away the best matchup for us in round 2.

So we better make sure we lose the last game. (Deja vu.)

You realize next to no one is taking the booster or the vaccine anymore because they realized they didn?t need it then or dont need it now. Talk about living in an alternate reality? anyway, onto what?s more important, Mavs baby!

WOW that's the stupidest comment I've ever read. Congratulations, you won the award.

Go Mavs.

PS- You also have the glorious distinction of being the first user EVER to make my ignore list in the damn near 20 years I've been posting here. Impressive stuff.

Seriously though people, I'm actually trying to move on from this. I'll take responsibility for initiating it in the first place- even though it wasn't my intention, I was only commenting on Kyrie's perception around the league.

Anyone who wants to keep bringing it up though, that's entirely your responsibility.

If Prosper can work his way to fill the 5th starter spot on this team and be a near 40% 3pt shooter next season, we should be one of the scariest teams in the league.

We are darn near close to being one now.

I'm not sure we'll need to make any major moves this off season.

I?d say he?s almost better than Green now. And Hardy.

It?d be nice to package thj and josh green for an upgrade. Sucks cause I really like them both as players off the court.

I really hope we don?t lose this place right before the playoffs (or at all for that matter). Are there any other message boards worth a damn?

The only other decent one is mavsboard.com. It's Mike Fisher's old people which...it's ok. Don't really feel like I'm "heard" when I post something.

I did add you to our twitter group chat today and anyone who wants to join is welcome.

Full regular-season grades for all 30 NBA teams

Dallas Mavericks
Grade: A-
Midseason grade: B-
Everything clicked for the Mavericks after they added starters Daniel Gafford and Washington in deadline deals around the same time Kyrie Irving got healthy after missing 22 of the team's first 49 games. Add in an MVP-caliber campaign from Luka Doncic and Dallas was one of the NBA's better teams after the break, moving up to the fifth seed in the West a year after finishing outside the top 10.

Not sure GSW would do it, but I wouldnt mind THJ/Green for Wiggins.

Green seems like he needs a change of scenery to continue to develop. I dont see an upside for him here.

I appreciate the add. I never use twitter, but I?ll check it out in the event we lose this place.

mavsboard.com was started and run by a few from the old Fish site. But it is way better than the old Fish site. There are also lots of posters that came from the lonemavsfan.com site. LMF however is also sill up and running with a few from the old days still around.

blessednegr0 · 04-15-2024, 12:18 PM

Not complaining but just curious if anyone has had issues with the site going down over the weekend?

dallas-mavs.com has been listed as day to day with non specific server issues.
either that or it's being rested for "load management" prior to the playoffs.

yes - it's been in and out a couple times the last couple weeks.
Hope it stays up and running for our playoff push!

I figure it was so ashamed of THJ's shooting that it took a vacation to Cancun

As long as we?re good to go starting Sunday April 21. Looks like we?re getting the prime time game of the day.
