  1. I would put Josh Green at the 3, not THJ. Green might be just 6'5", but he has a 6'11" wingspan, within a fraction of an inch of Dorian Finney-Smith. Just need to get a defensive anchor at 5 to put next to Wood who should be your 4.

  2. A lot of fans are so hypocritical about social justice. They could care less that israels land is being divided, or about Christians and Jews in general, truth/deception about jabs. They get so caught up in the fake media but I bet a lot of players or fans have no room to point fingers by the things they support or believe in. If you lay it out there a lot of people are more the same than they aren't different. Wicked or immoral. I hear nothing about locked on calling out communist, hypocritical BLM or other stuff like kanters takes, or of Darryl Morey. Or what about child labor for Nike. Nobody wants to talk about the hard stuff. A brief mention doesn't really do much for me. Make a whole show about it and actually expose evil if you care about it so much. There's just a lot of things and topics out there, you can really create an entire channel and it will probably have more viees than this

  3. Us giving up Spence leaves us in the same predicament… we still need another ball handler. I really wish they would’ve traded reggie instead of doe. Doe is way more consistent. I’m not mad at losing one of the 2 tho cuz we still have josh green who’s developing rapidly at this point and is basically the same player now, but can do more. I’d definitely rather have doe instead of reggie tho. IM STOKED WE HAVE KYRIE. But we still need another ball handler, and a defensive center and now another wing(or this playoff it’ll be josh and reggie playing 40 min this playoffs). Idk what’s gonna happen on the defensive end with this team, a team that’s been struggling on that end all year. Luka wood and kyrie is gonna be hard to stop. If we can keep wood and add what we need, this can be special.

  4. I wish we stop talking about kyries “off court issues” those issue have only been in Brooklyn and it’s all been circumstantial and narrative based for the most part. There’s a reason all the players love kyrie.

  5. I pray we keep wood. We can’t lose him . He’s perfect fit us and in time will be great in the defense. We’ve all seen the growth. Luka Kai and wood🥹🥹. Now let’s say we trade Timmy and Bertans and a first for bogdonivic 🤯🤯🤯

  6. There is no logical reason as to why you boycott the mavs because of anything kyrie has done. Y’all just assuming something is gonna happen lol. Y’all still talking about a movie you’ve never watched, still quoting “ promoting antisemetic beliefs” but can’t quote or portray 1 antisemetic line or scene in the movie. You people are literal sheep. Still calling a movie racist/antisemetic when you’ve never watched it 🤣🤣. The type to write a book report based off someone else’s report. How is hebrews to negroes antisemetic? How is a movie highlighting the factual preslavery history of blac people, that extends outside of Africa. But somehow, that’s antisemetic 🤣 all these months later and I’m still confused af fr. Can someone who watched the movie enlighten me please? Cuz the Jewish group I watched it with were confused af too.

  8. I'm not saying all the off court issues aren't concerning, but to all the ones saying the Mavs made a huge mistake, let's not forget that both LA teams wanted Kyrie just as much — Dallas just happpend to be the ones that got him. Media darling LeBron even endorsed the idea of Kyrie potentially joining up with the Lakers. Would we be criticizing LeBron as much as we are the Mavs for accepting such a toxic player?

  9. I have a gut feeling we will remember this trade (and extension if it happens). And something tells me not in a good way( Too mush risk, too little upside, and the defence is non-existent right now

  10. I probably have to eat my words later but… this is a stupid trade. Both stars need the ball in their hands and have an extremely high use percentage. Out of all the positions the Mavs should have filled they traded for the position that was already filled. Let’s wait and see.

  11. I'm sure Kyrie will understand with Luka and others, but he is real "maverick" with coaches, GMs, officials and media, so he will stay bad boy, but he has the respect from the players if you look from the playing point of view.
    Sad for Dodo, I like him, but happy that some other recognised his play and I hope he will be decent in Brooklyn.

  12. Regarding the moral problem / Kyrie off the court: I love that you two are two true Church faithfull thrown into covering him.
    It's easy to blame and point the finger, but one of the smartest things I've ever read was: 
    Do not judge (you don't know where they started their journey in life)

    So my question to @IsaacLHarris and @NickVanExit: what passages from the bible, what lectures from church are there to guide us when dealing with (such controversial) other people?

  13. I think it was a good trade. Better then what it was. Maybe Kyrie and Luka will get along, if so we will be unbeatable and a true contender.

  14. Mavs needs one more player to add before trade deadline. And that is a defensive big man. Does not have to be a star just someone better than Dwight Powell.

  15. with all due respect, every single team Kyrie joins, the immediate reaction is "POTENTIAL FINALS TEAM!!! OMG KYRIE IRVING!!!" At what point do people LEARN to stop associating winning with Kyrie Irving??? I am a lifelong Nets fan, and have been a SKEPTIC since day 1 of Kyrie on my team, only to be validated several years later… who in their RIGHT mind would ever think if it couldn't work with KD and company, that it will work with Luka… LMAO

  16. Kyrie makes stupid decisions, but let’s not talk about him like he’s Miles Bridges. Long as he’s able to keep the devisive beliefs out of it and local media keeps it on the court, we should be fine.
