Both have been indefensibly awful.

Lol, Brook Lopez grabbing rebound after rebound is pathetic.

Sportstudi · 03-20-2013, 09:18 PM

Yeah, let's sit Dirk...

MrScottMcKenzie · 03-20-2013, 09:18 PM

Poor free-thow shooting tonight..

MrScottMcKenzie · 03-20-2013, 09:19 PM

Leaving Joe Johnson open? Yeah.. Goodnight.

Sportstudi · 03-20-2013, 09:19 PM

That's game.

Bayliss · 03-20-2013, 09:20 PM

Dirk should just tell Cuban and Carlisle fuyk it.

nowhereman · 03-20-2013, 09:20 PM

OJ Mayo, Elton Brand, Vince Carter, Jae Crowder, Mike James on the floor in crunch time, give up a wide (10+ feet) open 3 to Joe Johnson.

They may be wearing Mavs jerseys, but these guys aren't Mavericks.

nowhereman · 03-20-2013, 09:22 PM

Oh yeah, why the hell is Kaman our starting center and getting touch after touch throughout the game if he's not good enough to close the game? I'm not saying he should be back in the game now, I'm saying don't start the guy if he's unplayable down the stretch.

nowhereman · 03-20-2013, 09:24 PM

I wish the fans at the AAC cared enough to boo this shit.

oilfieldtrash · 03-20-2013, 09:25 PM

At a loss for words.
Thanks Cuban?

MrScottMcKenzie · 03-20-2013, 09:25 PM

Dirk don't care so I don't care.

Rick41 · 03-20-2013, 09:27 PM

I'm starting to lose my patience with Carlisle.

This. Since the ASG (including tonight) Dirk is shooting 51/49/96. But his teammates refuse to give him the ball and Carlisle has become senile. If the coach isn't able to draw up a play for your best player, you know that something is wrong.

Really? Tell me the coach that gets Mike James, Collison, Kaman, Mayo, Brand, Roddy, Dojo (he was here most of the year), Wright, etc.. to a better record. I mean that lineup is laughable. If anything Carlisle should be in the coach of the year discussions with that amount of talent at his disposal.

You can draw up whatever you want but when your best player is continually sucking air and too fatigued to fight to get open there isn't piss RC can do.

yahyes · 03-20-2013, 09:33 PM

This is what happens when we don't have Shawn Marion's help defense.

You mean Chandler controlling the paint? Good job Mavs.

At least 5 plays designed for Dirk in the fourth quarter, Collison or James just completely ignored Nowitzki.

Sh*t, lets just throw Vince at PG and run with Mayo, Dirk, Wright, and Brand out there. I don't want Collison or James anywhere near the court.

Dirk shot 8/10, dipshit.

Tell me what you see wrong with that stat line.

I'm aware that Dirk needs a breather from time to time. But if your best player is shooting 80% from the floor it's inexcuseable to let him have only 10 shots in almost 36 minutes. Look at Brooklyn. Deron Williams had 25 shots. Brook Lopez had 22 shots. Probably it's a foreign concept for you, but I think there's a bigger chance for you to win if your best player shoots a lot.

Also true. But as I wrote, it's not only the coach (because Rick failed to draw up plays in the first three quarters, Dirk had only 6 shots until the 4th quarter), but also the inability of our guards to give the ball to our best player.

Aggie E · 03-20-2013, 09:40 PM

Brook Lopez and Reggie Evans went BEATMODE on the soft Mavs interior. Cuban was right about not resigning Ty Chandler...

I'm not piling on Carlisle at all here. Guy got dealt a shit hand. When you don't have a point guard that can (or sometimes just refuses to) get the ball to Dirk, it's tough. But if neither James nor Collison can or are willing to get the ball to Dirk, screw it and bench both of their scrub asses.

Then let VC run the point. It can't be worse. Heck, even Roddy with a broken hand would do better than James or Collison. At least he tries to get the ball to Dirk and knows his sweet spots.

Yeah, that was what I said in my original post. Get Vince to initiate, and just leave Mayo, Dirk, Wright, and Brand out there down the stretch. Crowder is a black hole on offense, but I'd sub in Marion there for Wright when he's back. Screw it, it's worth a shot. I'm starting to feel that I'd rather have no point guards than two incredibly shitty ones.

markus1234 · 03-20-2013, 10:14 PM

Mike James is here because Mr.RICK CARLISLE wanted to keep him till the end of the season.

Let's not forget it.

And this is why Mr.RICK CARLISLE keeps playing Mike James and keeps stubbornly proving a point that his decision was right...

No kidding. They made our 4s and 5s look like Junior high kids. Make total destroy.

Ty is the ONE they should have brought back and it was the biggest mistake this team ever had. The perfect fit next to Dirk got corporate downsized.

Instead of collison? Are you serious?

purplefrog · 03-21-2013, 01:51 PM

I kind of agree with the idea of playing VC at the point. It might work better than anything they have going right now. I'd also give Morrow more pt. Might as well see what you've got there.

DevinHarriswillstart · 03-21-2013, 01:58 PM

Neither VC or Mayo have the handles to play pg. Of course, if DC or James get injured, then I suppose the team won't have much of a choice.

Shocking to say, but the Delonte nutso business really did hurt this team.

Surely the team has a dusty notebook or two detailing Don Nelson's point-forward schemes.

Lols.

I have thought before about VC running the point in certain situations. You would be able to have a slasher and shooter as well as a great passer. Also, he has a little more ref respect so taking it to the rack might yield more calls.

They'll throw Chris wright out there who is probably better than both James/collison.

Mayo!!!!!!! Have you forgotten what happens when he's pressured.

Vince? I like Vince but dirk would probably get less shots with Vince out there. There just aren't many good options on this team.

Someone mentioned the point forward and I don't see that candidate either out there.

Nice going there Donnie, good team building ( at least contract wise ).

dude1394 · 03-21-2013, 03:26 PM

Morrow last night was a shot hunting dog, he's a shooting guard period.
