2023 - 2024 Dallas Mavericks Season Thread - I'm watching, just like you guys

[RexWilson 1345]

Have to stop giving them second chances. Foul on Horford

[Firemans4Horn 18034]

Luka and Kyrie are 1-12 from 3. 

[GenXer 2850]

Terrible

[RexWilson 1345]

Terrible

[bluto 4912]

Just flat out quit job since that end 1Q run

[Bozo_Casanova 26432]

Horrible missing all these 3’s. It’s the difference in the game. 

[GenXer 2850]

Luna looks like he wants this to be over. His body language is horrible.

He’s given up. Not hustling on D or for loose balls. Unfortunately he’s quit when facing some adversity.

Out rebound 44-30 so far this game. 12-6 on the offensive end.

they are getting worked everywhere.

[Billy Pilgrim 1960]

I’m just really surprised at how shitty Luka has played. I was hoping he had more Kobe and Jordan in him than this. 

[Skipper 6127]

Bad time for an awful shooting night across the board outside of Josh Green.

[Henry Hill 3156]

[RexWilson 1345]

Tatum stat hunting now so he can be MVP. 

[dcar00 14148]

embarrassing.

[Firemans4Horn 18034]

Boston loved when we had Washington handle the ball. Human turnover machine. 

[ATXhorn17 1617]

Boston is truly so hatable… 

[MrBig 5369]

I think Boston is going to have more overturned and burned out cars tonight than Kyrie’s point total. 

[Firemans4Horn 18034]

Kyrie was 17/52 from the field and 2/16 from 3 in Boston this series. Yikes. 

[Bozo_Casanova 26432]

Boston is on a different level and a deserving champion. Good for them.

Mavs overperformed, won the western conference is decisive fashion and have a solid foundation to build on. Time to Work hard in the offseason, upgrade a starter or two, and come right back.

Boston the team is very likable. Boston the fans are turrible.

[Pato del Muerto 52484]

 But still, as always, fuck Danny ainge.

Barely worse than Tatum at 27/74. That number is gonna better after the stat padding tonight though.

Only player I’m pissed at winning a title is KP.

[Billy Pilgrim 1960]

Luka gonna go play a million games in the Olympics and show up next season worn out and playing like this.

[RexWilson 1345]

You want to be really pissed, assuming Powell picks up the player option he is under contract for 2 more seasons. 

[Firemans4Horn 18034]

I still hope Dave Portnoy and Bill Simmons get run over in slow motion by the Celtics victory parade.

Don’t forget to throw the Wahlbergs into that crush train too.

They can be the meat of the Wahlburger of shit. Portnoy and Simmons can be the buns. 

[Skipper 6127]

Way too much negativity on this thread for a team that massively overachieved.    Winning a Championship is hard.  Boston hung around the rim for what, damn near the last decade before finally putting the pieces together?  Obviously disappointing outcome and particularly that we didn't play better but it's a learning experience that will make Luka better.  They were clearly a superior team and deserving champ.  

[LTtxfan 49141]

Yeah much tougher road thru the West and great defense by celtics finally wore Mavs down.

Well said. It’s ok to be disappointed but everyone in here would be lying if they claim to have expected a finals run 3 months ago..

All this

[Bozo_Casanova 26432]

Interesting- Luka just told a reporter who asked about the Olympics he didn’t want to talk about it, that he’s got some decisions to make and needs to get healthier.

I can't imagine how hard that would be given what he means to his country and the weight he carries in that regard, but it would absolutely the be the right move for next season.  Obviously we are biased.

[LTtxfan 49141]

Mavs overachieved...   Great Season Mavs

[Sawbonz 27527]

Unbelievable run

You may be confusing Boston with Philadelphia or Columbus.

He's been getting daily injections in both knees for the past 2 months. I think we're going to be surprised at how bad of an injury he was playing through.

[Henry Hill 3156]

Will never forget going to Game 4 with my pops to cross it off his bucket list.

Sure, it was probably a bullshit win…but it was a win at home in the NBA Finals and I got to live every moment with him.

Helluva run and time to be a Dallas sports fan.

Hope we’re back soon.
 

[Ricky Butler 2683]

Luka is so good. Keep building around him and the championship will come. Great season. Go Mavs!

[TornACL 7698]

Sure didn't expect to still be watching the Mavs in the finals after Game 1 vs the Clips.  It was fun!

[Bigpoppapump 529]

Proud of the team, ready for next season!

[closetohumping 17433]

Great season.  Congrats gents 

[RexWilson 1345]

Not sure if true.

I owe Jason Kidd an apology.  What's a good side for crow?  

['stache 21790]

Get Luka paid, then get some depth. Lively will only get better. Kyrie needs to be more consistent. This team is close. Boston has the depth we currently lack. I think Luka will get his ring soon.

West is a crapshoot.  Denver may still be the team to beat the next three or so years
