Mavs need defense. Mavs need a secondary creator. Simmons is doing both at an elite level.

The list of potential benefits adding Simmons to this roster would yield is so long I don't even want to type them. It would basically be realization of the Giannis dream...almost, anyway.

That was FAR from the Mavericks' main weakness...last year, maybe. Gobert can't shoot, either. You're saying you wouldn't trade KP for Gobert straight up? You don't think that would improve the team?

Mavs actually had solid clutch numbers this season. The number one weakness is defense. Has been for the last couple of years. Mavs broke all kind of records in the post season when it comes to losing with historic offensive numbers. RE: AROUND the NBA: Kawhi OUT with a torn ACL | CP3 in COVID protocols - HoosierDaddyKid - 06-16-2021 Maybe Reggie Jackson had to get out of Detroit. Dude's been ballin his ass off. RE: AROUND the NBA: Kawhi OUT with a torn ACL | CP3 in COVID protocols - ClutchDirk - 06-16-2021 What about all the posts every game with fans nervous if the Mavs will blow the lead...shows our fan base was worried if Luka would be able to.drag us to Victory... Also can imagine in the playoffs Simmons defender harassing Luka since Simmons is not a known shooter... RE: AROUND the NBA: Kawhi OUT with a torn ACL | CP3 in COVID protocols - ThisIStheYear - 06-16-2021 And the Hawks may win the Ship. RE: AROUND the NBA: Kawhi OUT with a torn ACL | CP3 in COVID protocols - ClutchDirk - 06-16-2021 2.out 4 shooting...4 out 14 on FTs... RE: AROUND the NBA: Kawhi OUT with a torn ACL | CP3 in COVID protocols - HoosierDaddyKid - 06-16-2021 Jazz/Clippers game is bananas. Everybody hitting 3's both teams.

Of course the fanbase was worried. It´s the Luka show and when he is off or the role players are missing open shots the Mavs can easily blow big leads. But basketball is played on both ends. With a better defense the Mavs could potentially avoid some of the big opposing runs. Not to mention that another legit ballhandler instead of Powell or WCS would really help on offense. Not like both can score of the dribble or shoot. RE: AROUND the NBA: Kawhi OUT with a torn ACL | CP3 in COVID protocols - TXBamanut - 06-16-2021 This is pure suck... https://twitter.com/SportsCenter/status/1405359450689609728 And no one for the Sixers had a field goal inside of the last 6 minutes...no Sixer. That's called "Extreme Butt Pucker Syndrome" or a case of the "Cheek Clamps".

Hawks fans had their pitchforks out for Cappella all night. I'd still take either one of them.

I guess Mavs fans are more reasonable. Because Simmons >>>>> KP. And it´s not even close. I would take the 13/8/9 lockdown defender over a 13/5 defensive liablity. |
