Idk why people keep saying they “gave up/lost” DJJ & Josh Green. they didn’t give up DJJ, he chose to chase the bag. They replaced and upgraded Josh green with Quintin grimes. Ima Josh fan but we’ve been hoping he takes that next step for years and he’s remained around the same. Quintin grimes provides all hustle, better point of attac defender and a better 3 point shooter. I do believe we will miss DJJ but I don’t think nico is done yet. We will not miss Josh at all tho. Not to mention Nani bolsters the defense as well. We don’t need klay to be a superstar. If klay plays the same as last year then that’s enough as our THIRD OPTION. 39% from 3 41 from the floor and he will be getting WIDE OPEN SHOTS. DJJ got the bag he got so many open shots. I’m predicting major regression this year. The warriors wanted klay to attac closeouts, and create his own shot. THATS NEVER BEEN KLAY and def not since injury. He will be playing his position with the mavs. He’s running offball and knoccing down open shots. I would prefer klay as the 6th man, but I trust in Kidd to figure it out. I think a lot of y’all are sleeping on the mavs. It’s gonna take some time to gel and I’m glad they have a whole offseason, but I think they can be special. ESPECIALLY if the secure one final piece wic they have more than enough to do. Derozan said he wasn’t taking the MLE at 13mil, if we can somehow get him on a deal similar to Kay’s then you can guarantee a ring this year. If we can split it and get two players like a miles bridges and Dennis smith Jr then I like our odds. Not to mention we Have Omax on our roster who’s supposed to make a big step this year. If he does then the POA spot is his.

Klay is definitely starting I don't see it as a bad thing at all. He may play 5-6 minutes and one of those hard nose wings that can shoot and play great defense will sub in for him. This is another year that he gets to build his legs back. People like to about his lateral quickness when it comes to his defense. He was never explosive laterally I mean not even close. He played good defense because he was smart and understood basketball. Mavs don't need a savior they just him to hit shots and play timely defense. Even Luka can play defense when he's not getting used and abused by Kidd. You don't need athleticism to play defense you just gotta be somewhat healthy and show good effort. I don't think people realize how much Naji Marshall and Grimes are going to affect this team especially with Lively and Gafford controlling the paint. This team is stacked.

I agree, more was blamed on Luka with three injuries than the horrible performances by EVERY OtHER player. They couldn’t beat the hornets like that much less a super team. And they still won more quarters than they did and held Boston to a 112 off rating. It was the bricked shots that I can’t forget. Wide open bricks. THJ, green, DJJ, PJ, Kai ( in Boston ), Hardy, Maxi. Basically all the players that helped get them to the finals.
@ouicertes9764Ай бұрын
@@backyardbuckets829 If you're blaming effort you're implying he's lazy and didn't try to win. Why would he do that? I don't understand how if you watch the regular season you can say it was an "effort" problem in the playoffs. We have eyes, we can see he wasn't 100%, and it's a damn shame he burned out and couldn't be the best version of himself when it mattered most. The Mavs really have to learn how to manage players during the regular season, Luka played 40min+ every game for two month while averaging 36/10/10 in december and january when everyone was injured, he was burned out by February, started accumulating small injuries. It's not sustainable. Same happened to the Knicks, but somehow no one is saying they were lacking effort or conditionning. Weird huh.

I wouldn´t be surprised if Klay shoots his highest 3p% ever next season
@SouthernDrinkSlingerАй бұрын
0:42 O'Max will not start. He still needs a ton of work to even get minutes in tight games, much less start. Klay will start, but they will stagger minutes soon after so that only 2 of the 3 stars are on the floor at the same time for the majority of their minutes. They will bring in a PoA defender, which I predict will be Grimes. It could also be Naji, but I see Naji splitting mins with PJ at the 4. I agree with you. I think Naji will be a sizeable upgrade over DJJ. DJJ was only playing 18 mins for a terrible Bulls team. He was a vet min player. Then the Luka effect elevates his worth to an all time high. Naji was stuck behind a deep Pelican rotation. When the Luka effect hits him, I think it will be a much higher celing.

Hardy isn’t a bust really, he just hasn’t been given many consistent opportunities to acclimate. If he got traded to a bad team and played 18-25 minutes per game for a season or two, he could become a quality 10-15 ppg bench scoring rotation player that any contender would be happy to have coming off the bench for them. I agree that Omax has future star potential, and that Lively II is a current star with an extremely bright future. I’m so excited to see how awesome Lively and Omax can be in 2-5 years and onward.
