RE: AROUND the NBA: ATL, LAL win. Both 7th seeds - omahen - 04-13-2023
Irving would have her thrown out after first one or two screams, leading to an on court fight with DeRozan and half of each team ejected

RE: AROUND the NBA: ATL, LAL win. Both 7th seeds - Chicagojk - 04-13-2023
Different league but if you are looking at wild stabs on guys who can defend......

I don't have the answer for this, but I wonder for a team starved for defense and rebounding how many guys on the G-league team were plus defenders or rebounders? I would guess very little. You would think you would be searching for these types of players and looking under every rock to see if you find anything interesting.

Jay Huff wow. He can really move his feet. I'd be disappointed at this point if the Mavs summer league roster doesn't feature him.

Especially for what they could bring to the Mavs. We need rebounding, shot blocking, paint presence, etc. Dwight gives none of that.
RE: AROUND the NBA: ATL, LAL win. Both 7th seeds - Chicagojk - 04-14-2023
Anyone have any favorites you are rooting for in the playoffs? Care? I think in the West I am pulling for Sacramento and Golden State. Sure Golden State ended our dream last year and have won plenty, but I still really enjoy their style of play. I think I will be rooting against Memphis and the Clippers.
For the East, I think I will root for Milwaukee. I wish I could root for Jalen and the Knicks, but this year has been too tough. So even though I will always be a Jalen fan, I will be rooting for a round 1 loss. I will be rooting against Boston and Philly as well.
RE: AROUND the NBA: ATL, LAL win. Both 7th seeds - ItsGoTime - 04-14-2023
Mil and Mem are my teams I’ll be rooting for. I like the GSW style of play too, but in order to get a shakeup from them they need to have a 1st round exit. Not fully sure I want Green, but the option would be nice to have. I don’t like the outside the game trash talking from some of the Mem players and I don’t like Ja’s outside the game behavior, but they also play a nice hard nosed style of basketball that I wish we would employ more players for. If Markieff was actually a player, he would have been a start to that style.

Can't say I'm surprised at all. Even the amount is a bit low. I'd figure at least 1.5 mil given the coach blatantly said it.
Finally can put this BS to bed. The entire league does it and the Mavs get penalized for 2 games just because we have a loud mouth. NBA didn't want to open the can of worms if they actually gave a punishment that had some teeth.
RE: AROUND the NBA: NBA Fines Mavs 750K for tanking - ItsGoTime - 04-14-2023
Next year, 50% of those fines are going to the players. Kidd is gonna be the player’s favorite coach ever! Cuban will be their favorite owner too!

Certainly not advocating for it but I do want to point out that he'll probably be much cheaper (MLE?) and does fill a need for us as a big wing. Would not be surprised if his name comes up this offseason...
RE: AROUND the NBA: NBA Fines Mavs 750K for tanking - Mavs2021 - 04-14-2023
I wonder whether this could open the league to a legal liability. They basically admitted to bettors that the Mavs/Bulls game was fixed. It´s amazing and disappointing that the league puts up with all the BS of Cuban.

Right.
Bettors generally have no earthly idea whether a team is tanking or not.

Bridges is an RFA. Doubt he's going to be available for free, and I'd rather the Mavs stay away from that media PR nightmare.
RE: AROUND the NBA: NBA Fines Mavs 750K for tanking - ItsGoTime - 04-14-2023
Bridges the player would be great. Unfortunately Bridges the person can’t be an option for us. What is the fallout of them signing him though? Is PJ Wash available? I have him as the new upgraded (starter) Kleber.
RE: AROUND the NBA: NBA Fines Mavs 750K for tanking - cow - 04-14-2023
Miles Bridges would fit in perfectly with the culture that Mark Cuban has fostered into the Mavs organization. At the very least Cynt has a tremendous amount of experience with these types of PR hits since joining the Mavs. I might not have respect for the person, but I do believe in rehabilitation and second chances. It would also be the type of around-the-edges move I've campaigned for us to operate within. I might not be happy with the move but this team should be desperate.

Yeah, he's a PR nightmare in the short term. But depending on his attitude, fans will forgive him. If he shows a little humility and repentance, the stigma will fade. Tiger Woods, anyone?? Kobe?
I think his value in Charlotte is the lowest of any NBA city, simply because the fans there feel most betrayed by his hurtful behavior. So they've got pretty strong motivation to trade him. The question is which team will offer the most.
From a money perspective, he's cheap at $4m for his final year. So Dallas can't send a big-salary player unless there are other players involved. Hayward and Bridges for Timmy and Bertans??
