In the meantime you lean on your defense to get you going. We have to keep Fk starting our offense by getting stops IMO.

No worries mate. Frankly, I knew you weren't gonna try and answer that one.

Got a hard laugh out of this one lol. Especially the detail of Manila paper

[LukaMagic]

If you sit on the bench and get a moment's chance while the big guy is out, it is not easy to keep your composure. Make all the proper decisions. Especially in absence of a system.

[LukaMagic]

Say what you will, RC HAD A SYSTEM.

[LukaMagic]

Ntilikina wasn't played last season. He needs confidence and a system.

[LukaMagic]

Bullock taking a poor shot too. 3 and d should be a clinical player. Taking your spots. That's what RC was all about.

[LukaMagic]

But hey, Dallas is on the run, and I could be wrong.

[Dallas41]

All the Kidd hate and yet this team is playing much better defense and finding ways to stay in games when those 3 point bricks aren't falling

It's Kidd hate by either casuals or newcomers to the site. Probably ones that have been fueled by Mavs Twitter garbage.

Loved what RC did for a while but it got rough. Idc I'd he's a decent coach still or not, I'm just happy it
will be elsewhere.

Regardless of what the circle jerk about Kidd might be, we have a strong supporting cast around him.

[LukaMagic]

Kidd was only an assistant before? Right?

He’s been a head coach on two previous teams.

[Dallas41]

Oh lord Powell is back to anchor the middle

[Dallas41]

OMG Powell

[LukaMagic]

How about trying to correct my Bullock comment? Was that one false too? A running clock?

Or, are you, you know, p i c k i n g a n d c h o o s i n g. lol

Still love your comments though.

[LukaMagic]

Or is now that Dallas41 gonna jump in? And then you can comment on him? So you can talk to yourself basically, oooooops, sorry, to each other. lol

[LukaMagic]

How many of y o u are here anyways? lol

Did this dude ever post a coherent comment????

[tap2390]

More Ntlikina, less Powell.

Lol. Rough start. If I'm trying to get involved in posting more on a board, I'm not trashing the team and the new coach right off the bat. Imo.

I really want Kidd to work out obviously, and if it doesn't then slide Igor over and give him a shot. I love that Kidd has a good supporting cast and he's Green enough to almost have to listen to the assistants as well as the team.

Bottom line about Kidd is that it makes zero sense to me to point fingers at him this early. Even if we had Malone, Snyder, Monte, ...anyone of our collective top 3 talent coaches or likeable guys like Silas or Moseley, it would still take time to iron out the new wrinkles.

I think we are almost always going to have rotation issues with whoever the coaches do or don't give mins to. I think we all want more Moses, Bullock and Frank, and less DP.

[Dallas41]

This starting lineup has been garbage all game.

Mix it up again

[FreshJive]

You thought this was Kidd’s first coaching job.

[SMC0007]

.

[FreshJive]

What happened to Harper?

[Dallas41]

I see you Frank

[DevinHarriswillstart]

Sucks that Moses can't get a chance.

[SMC0007]

Need more Mose and keep the Frank mins coming. That defense is truly elite.

Yep i think Frank is a very underrated pickup

Incredibly very

Yo, whoever is behind Dallas41 and SMC0007,
You really need some new user names. People are onto you !!!! And onto the fact that it is one and the same fuckin' person paddling in circles.

I mean no harm dude. I wish you all the best. But you do need some fresh user names to continue, you know, with your paddling.

Ah yes. If two people agree on something it's gotta be the same person because what are the odds. Especially if they just so happen to disagree with something you've said.

I guess I've been fooling these idiots here since 2007. Lol. You're gonna end up in my sig, Captain. No harm though dude. It's not how you start, (which hasn't been good) but how you finish.

[Dallas41]

Powell gets his junk blocked again at the rim

[EricaLubarsky]

LLuka

[FreshJive]

Maxi and Brunson saved our starting scrubs.

[DevinHarriswillstart]

Brunson player of the game. He basically single handedly got us back in with the second unit.

[EricaLubarsky]

Franky Smokes with the best +/-

Luka -19

Dear god, we gotta fix that starting five. Can’t give the other team a 15-20 point lead every single game and expect to be okay.

I'd suggest Maxi. Which is about as reactionary as it gets after tonight. But I think we found out by process of elimination that the pics DP has of someone that keeps him steady in the rotations must be of Cuban.

[EricaLubarsky]

Pay Brunson!

[DevinHarriswillstart]

I would also add that Pop is very much in the Rick Carlisle ilk of not making adjustments. That's why they blow 20 point leads. Both of them are coaches of a bygone era.

[DevinHarriswillstart]

I'm not worried about the coaching.

Roster worries are still legitimate. You can tell we are trying to hide the lack of overall roster talent with playing as tough of D as possible. It's working so far, but I think there could be some ugly games if the offense doesn't start clicking.

But on the topic of D, I think Luka is really starting to take pride in playing it.

[EricaLubarsky]

Also was a pleasure to see yet another game where a big German wrecked the Spurs
