Yeah Luka destroyed JJB there, lol.

 

I'm actually glad it's the Clippers, and not because I think they can win.  I was worried that all this talk of "Moving up/down to avoid the Clips" would backfire anyways.  They'd just get beat by Denver or Utah anyways.

At least this way the Mavs are the underdogs, with nothing to lose.  Luka/KP and a couple of other guys, will get a taste of probably the actual best team in the league in playoff mode.  Let Luka get the shit beat out of him by PG and Kawhi and Beverly and let him earn earlier than later what it'll take to win the playoffs.

 

Jordan learned it later when the Pistons were beating the shit out of him.  This will be good for that Young Mavs IMO.

Listening to JJ on “Freddy and Fitsommons” on ESPN.  And he is just lauding Dirk.  Kobe v Dirk games were epic. And as a lifelong laker fan I’ve always been impressed as to how the Mavs seem to always get the most out of their team.  Because while you have some talent, it’s rarely enough to make noise.  But the Mavs always do make some noise.  And I pin that on your coach.  I think Carlisle is going t9 go down as maybe the most underrated coach of all time.  That dude gets more out of less than a one I may have ever seen.  I promise this is not a backhanded compliment.  Honestly he is perhaps the best coach in the league that given the talent could have had an epic run.

BTW, Luka is going to be scary good.  If the Mavs draft smart around him, whoa.

Hopefully we can steal one of these first two road games, right?

I wonder if this even counts as playoff experience for this young team. The atmosphere and playing on the road are huge experiences for young teams. They will get none of that this season.

I mean those first games back in the bubble, were NBA allstar level defense intensity.  I remember flipping to the Mavs/Rockets game and seeing it in the 80's at halftime and going WTF.

I just don't want to see Luka drive and dish to SC/THJ and having them laying bricks during crunch time.

How are you Mavs liking King Boban?

He was only with the Spurs for one season, and that was already four years ago, but he left quite the impression.

Good luck tonight against the Clips. It would be extra special if y'all did something terrible to Kawhi. TIA.

It’s a little obvious when kp gets hammered with no call then runs down and gets a clean block and has a foul called. 

Worst part was it bailed the clips out on the other end because the shot clock was out.

Such bullshit!  Fuck, and we need this win with Clips rusty. 

I’ve never seen such a weak technical in my life. 

The first one doesn't happen if the bitch ass refs open their fucking eyes on a block
