    Love the moves Nico has made as general manager. Turning Bertans into Lively and Grant Williams, then Grant and Curry into PJ and Gafford were brilliant moves. Looking forward to growth as the team spends more time together and as Lively and Hardy mature.

    Their role players aren’t good enough. We know kyrie will miss most of the regular season which will overwork doncic and they’ll have to grind their way into playoffs again with Luka gassed. Then expect a 33 year old Irving to be the same guy he was 7 years ago when he’s now chief hella and didn’t seem bothered at all he played lousy in the finals. This teams foundation is Luka & Lively but all the rest to me can be shipped off. Kyrie helped with the late season push but was honestly off and on in the playoffs. Luka had to do way too much of the heavy lifting. Without another legitimate scorer to lighten Luka’s load when Kyrie can’t be found this team will not get back to the finals or have a shot to win the finals. End of discussion. I’m right and you all are wrong including Nico.

    • @ramhaven2322
      @ramhaven2322 3 місяці тому

      I think Kyrie can be kyrie about 25-30 minutes a game in the playoffs if you want him to play defense. He has lot's of miles on him at this point. He seems good in the locker room and the other dudes seem to like him ..Chemistry is important. I'm not even sure who we could get for him at this point...I guess Lebron still want tot play with him but who would they trade.

    The Mavs' only weakness is consistent shooting. They don't have a consistent knock-down shooter on the roster. Their best shooters are extremely streaky. If they pick up somebody like a Luke Kennard, they're set. Most of the team is young and will get better. Even Luka is a few years away from his prime.
