  1. Agreed. Going to need the other starters to pick it up tomorrow against them. They’re going to get a lot of open looks.
  2. Or the fact that it was the clippers and he always torches them.
  3. Like I said earlier in the thread, we're going to have to wait to see what they ultimately end up doing with these players to know how to grade this trade. Maybe they'll be able to attach these contracts and actually be involved in other deals now. In the meantime, rebounding and rim protection is going to be a constant issue.
  4. This is typical Mavs brilliance. Could have signed Dinwiddie in the offseason but decided to spend it on Timmy. Now they trade for him and probably need to dump Timmy's contract. In the end, we still need time to see how this turn outs. In theory, both of these contracts should be easier to move than KPs. But damn, what a backwards way to get to this point.
  5. I am going to be pretty surprised if we have both DP and Maxi on this roster after the trade deadline. We cannot afford to have them on the books next year and also re-sign JB and Doe Doe.
  6. These past two games have been great but make the two before that all the more frustrating. We should have already passed Utah.

    I said in this thread a few days back that qualification is definitely not a foregone conclusion. Mexico is capable of beating us and then we would be stuck chasing the final two games. I want no part of having to get a result in Costa Rica. That will not end well. Biggest things I want to see in the final 3 games: 1) Most in-form players at the time. If CP is not getting any minutes, I don't want him starting at Azteca in the altitude. 2) Pepi over Zardes (I feel like this shouldn't even have to be on the list). 3) Someone who can get the ball into good spots for free kicks. CP was absolutely dreadful vs Canada in this regard. Acosta really has a nice ball and that makes a ton of difference in a game. I wish he was more playable against the better teams.
  8. And this is why I just cannot get excited even when we have great months. This type of horseshit is why we get stuck with more difficult first round matchups.
  9. What the hell is going on in Tarrant county? All the other major counties are in a nice nose dive but Tarrant has had rising cases the past few days.

    I give zero shits what Stephen A has to say about anything much less soccer. My question is if tonight is anything but a win, does US Soccer have the balls to pull the plug on Greg?
  11. Yep. We have nobody who can get any penetration to setup shots. They’re suffocating us.

    The stupid part about starting Zardes because of a narrow pitch is that it actually makes it worse for him because he doesn't have a good touch. A smaller pitch would mean you want someone more skilled on the ball. After today's disaster, we need to be rooting hard for Mexico on Wednesday. We have got to get some cushion going into the next round because it's going to be a bitch. @Mexico, home to Panama, and @Costa Rica. Yikes. I keep trying to make peace with the fact that this is already a wasted cycle with GB, but I really hate that we are squandering the talent on this team.

    I would just like to point out we are not even in that great of a spot to auto qualify at this point.

    I just want to point out that Canada is missing their best player and starting a ton of MLSers. I don’t want to hear shit about excuses. This is a terrible result.

    About to have another Gerg special. Down but don’t bring on any subs until it’s too late.

    Please get Zardes the hell out of the game. He is bringing absolutely nothing.

    They were talking about this. I’m not sure if he just mishit it or if we just had dudes not in the right position. It doesn’t seem like either keeper is getting much on it. Their keeper also muffed one at the beginning but we didn’t do squat with it.

    Overall I don’t think we played that poorly. It was one moment that cost us. Otherwise we have dominated possession and have made it a lot more uncomfortable for them than us.

    Can we get Pulisic off free kicks? He’s been absolute shit.

    Zardes with his nice donkey touch.
