"Luka looks better than ever"

I said this and others have said this....watch out for one last... or is it more, JJ Barea playoff run. It is very clear that he is a huge part of the chemistry whether he plays or not. Don't forget, he needed healing time as much as anyone. I doubt that he lost the knack for making plays that are so frustrating to the opponent.

Cuban needs to shut his trap again.

First he´s trying to lecture Dan Snyder on how to handle sexual harrassment after he allowed his buddies to run wild for a decade, then butchered the clean up, only to buy himself out with a record fine. That´s Donald Trump level of delusion and vain to think you should give anybody advice on such a matter.

Now the freedom of speech fiasco, where he got buried by Ted Cruz.

Cuban responded: "Have some balls for once @tedcruz. Speak to me. It's my tweet."

Cruz responded to Cuban by asking his thoughts on the NBA's relationship with China and took a dig at him by asking if his players could use "Free Hong Kong" on their jerseys.



Cuban responded: "I can say Black Lives Matter. I can say there is systemic racism in this country. I can say there is a Pandemic that you have done little to end. I can say I care about this country first and last and.."

At least we got the worst Mavs loss of the summer out of the way early.

Mark Cuban > Ted Cruz

[StepBackJay]

Cubes virtue signaling at an all time high. He has no answer for why the NBA should be cow towing to China despite their human rights abuse. Trump is to blame for a virus but China (hey remember them) that gave us the virus in the first place should not be criticized for any reason. The NBA hypocrisy on all this shows you they are full of shit. They are all brave when criticizing our own country but would not take a stance on China for fear of a 10% haircut in revenues should China close their doors.

Mavs vs Raptors NBA Finals 2020 confirmed

[DanSchwartzgan]

Good Article from The Ringer.  Focus is on O, but it makes a great point at the end about what is needed:


"The Mavs have only one real weakness on either side of the ball. While Finney-Smith is the team’s best defender, at 220 pounds he doesn’t have the elite athleticism or sturdy frame to match up with the best wings. 

The problem for Dallas is they might have to go through Kawhi Leonard, LeBron James, and Giannis Antetokounmpo in three consecutive rounds to win an NBA title. The road to winning in the modern NBA runs through the big wing position. Few can defend those players while still contributing on offense.

The Mavs need a 2020 version of Shawn Marion or Andre Iguodala. They were both elite defenders who also had the scoring ability to average 20 points per game earlier in their careers."

Brogdon's face was like "yeah, not going to get that"

 He has no answer for why the NBA should be cow towing to China despite their human rights abuse.

Right? knowing the way China treats humans, it’s irresponsible for the NBA to tow their cows there

I'm not sure this will be an advantage or disadvantage for Mavs. He was really bad.

The Mavericks’ outside counsel, Winston & Strawn, meanwhile, maintained that whatever had happened had nothing to do with Ronzone’s job, rendering the team not liable. On Dec. 10, they sent a letter to Sarah’s attorneys arguing, “None of the conduct at the heart of [Sarah’s] allegations is even arguably within the nature and scope of Mr. Ronzone’s employment with the Mavericks.”

This was too long to read (in unnecessary way IMO) so I might have missed some details. But few things:

-Why did she go to the Mavs and not to police, it seems weird to me since this happened away from the Mavs as organization. I mean even if this happened it wasn't something the Mavs should be held responsible for.

-There is a lot of infos that goes forth and by between her claims and his lawyer, and I hope truth prevail between her and him. But regarding the Mavs I think it comes down to this:
Was the NDA situation rightfully handled by which side? 
If her lawyer was playing tricks, then it is the Mavs right not to accept their request and they should have handled the evidence if they really wanted justice. If it was a formality and Mavs were trying to cover for him then we will be screwed. Though, with NBA being reported with this, and Mavs public situation I feel I am leaning to the side of the team regarding the legal situation (not the incident)
Though again, I might have missed something.

One last thing, I am not trying to victim blaming anyone here. But woman should learn to avoid going to a man's room like a plague. And the more he insists the more you should avoid it.
