First unofficial gamethread of the new season! It's time to finally watch some Mavs basketball! 

Going to be weird not seeing Carlisle on the sidelines at least for me. First time in 13 years!

Will be interesting to see whether Kidd sticks with the Carlisle pre-season formula /rotations.

Discord (in game chat), or old style (commentary after the game)?  Well...I am old, so I guess the old style is what I'm used to.  I find that the in game chat interrupts the flow of the game and causes me to miss important play(s).  With discord I have to decide which is more important to pay attention to--the game, or the chat.  Can I not multi-task?  Of course.  I can do many things in an average sort of way--or I can do one thing in a way above average (superior) way.  Normally I have chosen to watch the game first, then read and discuss afterwards.

     However, during the preseason, I will attempt to use Discord and see what happens.  I guess you can say Discord is going to have a preseason, for me, as well as the Mavs, for all of us.  I will still peruse the old style game thread as well.

Very interesting and important times for the Mavs.  New coach, little change in personnel--what could go wrong?  One thing I'm expecting to see this year is the old style Maxi with improvements.  I truly believe covid and nagging injuries took a lot out of Maxi last year.  This year...go Mavs!

THERE IS A MAVS GAME TODAY

Based on the DNP-rest list Kidd is taking the RC approach when it comes to preseason games.

Maybe the rotation guys will rotate in and out of the preseason games and all only play a certain number of the warm ups.

Could be the case but it is difficult to tell because we don´t even know who the starters and rotation guys are. Maybe we are in for a suprise.

I'm guessing 29 teams don't like what they see in that photo.

[BoulderMFFL]

Any news on minutes being limited for KP & Luka to about 15 min?  Or anyone else for that matter.

[DrMav]

1st warmup game of the season. 1st must win game of the season.

[Mavs2021]

He's alright. Don't think he'd survive in the Big 10 though..
