I still don’t believe Kidd knows how to use Exum
Lively, Green & Holmes for Nic Claxton & DFS.
Nick Angstadt have me on the podcast
Dirk had a bigger heart than Doncic. Dirk at least tried on defense
My trade idea~
Mavs receives: Caruso, Drummond, Doe Doe, Royce O Neal
Nets receives: Maxi, Holmes, two 2ndRPs
Bulls receives: Josh, Dwight, one 1stRP
Mavs gets defensive depth at every position
Nets, more draft capital
Bulls, draft capital, and young a player
Agree on the idea of giving O-Max more time on the floor. Tbh I can't imagine a better time for that because it really can't be worse than some of the other guys and at least effort won't be the problem with him.
The Mavs can’t trade for DFS before the one year anniversary of the trade from last season unless he is traded to another team first
We need to do something the last games should wake everyone up. We need a wing who can score and defend!
Did yall see how pelicans handled the queens ? We make every time look like the dream team .
Caruso + Drummond for Kleber + Green. Isaac for THJ. You get the best on ball defender to play with Luka and Irving. You get a Secundary Center and a great wing defender.
The “alright Isaac” still going strong 😢
No DFS hes washed up and his shooting is horrible. Great guy though but pass
I'm telling ya'll to look into chris boucher he'd be perfect for us!!!
How bout Bogdan from Detroit? I know he's hurt but he'll be back
Isaac is probably getable but he’s not the same player pre injuries
Every year we are trying to figure out what's missing from the roster and nobody ever realizes that the issue is the offensive play style. If you change the play style it'll be easier to fit players in that defend.
It's reported nets rejected 2 firsts for dfs at the deadline last yr….. I think raptors rejected 3 firsts from the suns I think for OG…. We only have 1 1st that we can trade. Caruso worth 2 firsts? Chicago has vehemently rejected 1 first offers so far. They'd really have to love the +1 player (hardy?)
Would you trade Jaden for Caruso? I don’t think Bulls say no.
The Isaac “peace out” button at the end really doesn’t help me feel any better about this Mavs defense 😞
friom seed # 1 to seed # 12..its a shame team in west..mavs team is always weak worst team in nba as always..time to tank now or dispatch jason kidd..worst coach of nba now..😂😂😂
Caruso is underrated some stats show he was best defender last year and last few
Josh Green/SRP for Pat Will/Drummond is an ideal minor move that can help us
Lively joined the club lmao
Maybe Portland will trade Thybulle
They need some interior with a physical presence. Lively is the future, but she needs veteran backup. Players like Embiid, Giannis, etc. score unopposed at the Dallas rim. Isaac, or Drummond could make it difficult.
Outsiders like Fox score too easily against Dallas. A player like Caruso would make them work much harder and reduce their production. With those two small details, and with the signing of Irving and Luka, Dallas would be a contender.
Don't get lost on trades, we all know J. Kidd can't coach at a championship level. We saw what he did prior to the Mavs and there he is just because of how good a player he was. A competent coach, that's it, there's your fix. I truly respect Kidd for what he did as a player, but come on now… I wish I'm wrong but I can't see him getting any team to a chip.
ANDRE DRUMMOND!!!!!
Royce O’Neale is gettable he’s within Dallas’ price range and how about Chuma Okeke from Orlando
Coaching is the biggest flaw. Also, I don't get why you'd get rid of McGhee. Did he suck? I guess. But he did actually rebound and protect the rim. For all the talk of Kidd wanting to pretend he's a defensive minded coach, but he is the one who wanted to get rid of McGhee. McGhee is a career backup and plays that role well.
Doe doe! He can play the small 5 or just replace maxi he isn’t doing so good this year and also Omax isn’t ready yet
Drummond for Holmes and a 2nd sures up the non lively minutes defensively (also a great rebounder) and makes Powell your 3rd center. i also view Dorian + Royce as an upgrade to green + kleber. I’d swap those guys and include 2 seconds if that’s enough to get it done.
overall adds: Drummond, Dorian, Royce
overall losses: holmes, maxi, green + 3 seconds
Why Kidd does not use Holmes and Omax more?
Second unit Hardy and Seth + Omax Green and Holmes. At least 3 of them are committed to defend and can pick rebounds.
theres 1 thing I noticed from the start – Mavs cant win against good teams this year, how ever you wonna slice that its true. Way I understand it if its a team that wont beat itself were screwed. Its enough to be organized and have some quality on the court and know what youre doing to win against Mavs. Im not sure if its only pointing to D.
As for fixes – new coach. We tried new players, even if those are not the greatest it still doesnt explain the D being worst in the league, especially since players are really invested, its not like theyre mailing it in.
