How do we feel about this? We need defense so I’m hoping he can bring that. 

[Drew 2,331]

Pretty much like Willie.  More of a Flier than anything.

[Post Oak 20,184]

Ringer article about CHA playing MKG at the 5.  He's got some defensive positional flex.

I've seen enough of Jackson. I hope they either sign MKG or bring up Reaves.

 

[Dropout 355]

Sign me up for MKG. We have enough offense. MKG will defend the best player on the other team. That is what we need.

[Bigpoppapump 529]

We beat a bad team without donic or zingis? I don’t know how to feel about this.

So are we basically a lottery team at home? 

[Dropout 355]

 

[CBT 1,281]

Just get past the break and get healthy. I think MKG will be a nice pickup.

Stacking up the hyphenated names now.  

[RexWilson 1,341]

I wish they would have waived Lee instead of Broekhoff

[CBT 1,281]

Same, but money.

i would've cut justin jackson, no hesitation

Wow this Luka guy seems to make a difference.

[markstanco 12,504]

Wow this Luka guy seems to make a difference.

He is fun to watch but not a difference maker.

[LurkingHorn 1,044]

Finally a game where KP and LD have good nights. Please inject more of it into my veins.

The Mavs have won 64% of the games Luka and KP have played together.  And last night was the first night it looked like KP was fully weaponized.

KP looked like a beast out there last night. Hopefully a sign of thing to come. I would still like to see more aggressiveness out of him on the defensive side of the ball. 

[markstanco 12,504]

With KP making 27mm and only going up, and luka getting paid in a few years, tim jr will have to go, yes?

[threesheets 1,652]

You can do whatever the hell you want with no hard cap.

KP's contract is going to end up being a steal (no jinx).

THJ's deal will be up after next year.

He has a player option for next year.  Prior to the season it was pretty much guaranteed he would exercise that option, now I’m not so sure.  

[CBT 1,281]

That's true. I was assuming too. Will be interesting to see how that plays out.

He seems to like it here, and we seem to like him.  It’s a very thin free agent class this year,, but there also aren’t a lot of teams with cap room, and hardly any of the contenders have any space.   I would bet they work out an extension.  He’s only 27 y.o. so a 3-4 yr extension shouldn’t have too much, if any, dead weight on the backend of the deal, and as long as it’s a reasonable number, we shouldn’t have any problem moving him if that becomes necessary.

[Drew 2,331]

Yeah I saw they're like 28-12 with both KP and Luka starting, and one of those was the Miami home game where Luka played 2 minutes before he rolled his ankle, and they lost it in OT.  Pretty salty.

[CBT 1,281]

how awesome is this...Obama was lucky enough to meet Luka

 

 

[Knoxtnhorn 5,929]

Just got "Texas College Night" tickets for my son and me.  March 8th.  Pacers.

[Drew 2,331]

Was a good night for Luka.  Fun stuff.

Can't wait to see him play a few minutes as a starter.

So fucking clean

[Drew 2,331]

Fun game to watch. Need more of that from KP/Luka together.

[Pato del Muerto 52,340]

So KP has played one game in like 8 days and he needs rest on a back to back?  At least Luka had all star week work.

Mavs score 41 in the second half to secure the 4 point loss. 

[Knoxtnhorn 5,929]

Uh oh.  Cuban just went off on the officials on Twitter.
