Who's saying it's an excuse? It's a reality.How's that a good excuse?
You really have Memphis at 7-8?Mavs been depending on dudes like Maxi Klieber, Dwight Powell and Reggie Bullock for years. Yuck. They should be fighting with Memphis for 7-8 this year IMO.

Overall the west is pretty much the same landscape regarding the playoff teams
They had a worse roster last year when they missed and everyone clowned them. Rightfully so because in reality their roster simply wasn’t good enough… but nobody wanted to hear that “excuse”
So this year with a better team (Williams and Holmes replacing bullock and McGee, curry byke) and full year of (happy) Kyrie- it’s accepted that they have no help, have trash roster, trash coach etc
ok Denzel gif
I don't even think the roster is worse. It's improved and it's unquestionably better set up for the long-haul. than it was to start last year But it absolutely is still fairly lopsided in terms of talent disbursement positionally.Overall the west is pretty much the same landscape regarding the playoff teams

I expect Luka to run the offense and guard the other teams best player.
Each night he should want to check Shai, KD, Steph, Kawhi etc.
My main gripe is that people change up from the end of last year when “luka has no excuses” to now months later= luka has no help and his coach sucksI don't even think the roster is worse. It's improved and it's unquestionably better set up for the long-haul. But it absolutely is still fairly lopsided in terms of talent disbursement.
And whether people like it or not they are probably going to heavily depend on 4 guys that are 22 or younger to address some of the gaps they've had for several years.
The Mavs rotation had subpar guys from 3-10 when Brunson was there.Mavs should make the playoffs. They really should
They should at least expect to make the second round if they don’t face off with Denver or Phoenix
You know damn well this thread loves to talk out both sides of their mouths.My main gripe is that people change up from the end of last year when “luka has no excuses” to now months later= luka has no help and his coach sucks
When again- the roster improved and the same contending teams are vying for the playoffs
We compared him to Harden not Kobe![]()
I would still say this team is better than the brunson roster. Talent wise. As cohesive? TBDThe Mavs rotation had subpar guys from 3-10 when Brunson was there.
Then he leaves and they have to put a first rounder & a couple of those guys in the trade to replace him
If the Mavs aren’t fighting for the play-in then that means we’ve witnessed another injury plagued season.
Yes you’re right. i don’t wanna go back to the brunson thing either but it went downhill even before that with porzingis not panning out health wiseYou know damn well this thread loves to talk out both sides of their mouths.
I ain't gonna go rehash the old Brunson **** again - I was wrong on that whole thing in hindsight and it is what it is.
But if we're honest with ourselves - even if he'd stayed, some degree of roster overhaul was an absolute necessity at some point if they were gonna consistently compete.
Yep. No Tyus Jones and Ja is gone for 1/3 of the season. Team doesn’t have enough offense IMO. They should be around 42-40You really have Memphis at 7-8?
No it is not, especially with how Luka is analyzed and judged.
His grace period is up.
