Maxi Kleber & Jason Kidd Discuss Maxi Return, Dejan Milojevic Passing, Dallas Mavs 2024 Potential

Crazy is this is yall’s first practice in like a mon uh well the schedule was kind of crazy um so yeah I mean but it is what it is you know it’s preset so we just make the best out of it what did y’all focus on today um you know overall I

Want to say to this like we obviously stay true professionals we’re going to focus on basketball getting arrest and and doing the things that we have to do but you know on the other side the reason why we practice you know I want to express my condolences for for

Families involved um friends involved and everybody else cuz you know it’s it’s a very sad tragedy so we we we stay professional we do our work but um I think you know that’s a little bit bigger right now and that’s why I leave the practice out okay thank

You I know you’re just now back into the grind of kind of playing every other day but what do you see is the benefit of practice when you don’t get much of it uh just going back to the basics you know and then getting that back into the

Into the game um you know when you don’t get the time for that especially with a lot of guys out that we had um it’s tough to just go back and and and and implement the basics again that we didn’t have time for you got a long

Injury like you had and there’s not much R this time what’s that like for you just to try to keep yourself engaged and things like that you watch a lot of film um you know you try to focus stay mentally at least in shape if you can’t

Do it physically and then you know the hard hard thing is to to come back and just like find the conditioning and Rhythm and everything in in practice but uh in in the game um but overall I think we did a great job with rehab getting me

Physically ready to step back out there Max when you see the team at full strength and the ceiling that’s there because it’s been really good when you guys TR how excited is this group about the potential of getting to that level again and showing that it’s better than

What you guys have been able to show to this far with the limited I mean it’s it’s very exciting but at the same time we got to stay humble because you know just because everybody’s back doesn’t mean everything is going to go right so you know we still got to focus on our

Work everybody got to focus on their role and what they have to do but obviously the potential is there especially with kind Luke on the offensive end running the show um you know like everybody else got to know what we have to do and especially get on

The defense end uh defensive end a little bit better you’re trying to win every game I know but what do you think the stand starting to become more important January one before that is it up I personally think that they’re always uh important you know because you

Want to win you want to position yourself in the best way possible for the playoffs um so I think we should take every game series no matter what yeah kind of going off that here are playing the Celtics coming up uh what do you think it’ll take to just win that

Game what can you learn from that game uh you know mental composure staying together playing hard and physical you know meet them first set a tone um just going out with the right energy do you view those kind of games as a MAG stick in anyway I mean I I think everybody

Does you know like um it’s been like the one year when we had a good run and the next year everybody tries to come in here and uh try to test us I think that the same thing happens to to Boston and they play really great basketball that’s

Why they are where they are um and you know we just got to approach it with the right energy as I said max you said you know what this team has to do defensively what are some of those aspects on on the defensive end you have

To improve on uh one thing is like overall energy um and then you know everybody individually taking pride in like making the right place and the other one is like just communicating better you know there was like especially last game like there were a lot of miscommunications that can happen

Like in basic rotations and stuff like that that’s why we got to clean up and stay consistent with it and then Al also you you’ve been back for three games just how do you feel physically and ment uh I feel good you know obviously it’s going to take some

Time to get like the old conditioning back in the Rhythm but overall I’m just very happy to be back out there and I guess this is ancient history but we really haven’t had a chance to talk to you so you came back one game game reinjured it to the extent you can what

Happened we uh so the first game it happened I don’t remember the exact date against Chicago um and then you know we took some time off because it happened in the same game again um then we took a week off um treated it and everything

Was fine and uh then we taped it tried to like stabilize it in that game it happened in in the second half again so the first half was all good we took the risk of seeing um if it if it should stay stable and didn’t so after that we

Knew it needs a time to and become again and so that’s why we had to take the time unfortun just had a question about luuka pass to you last game that ever catch you by surprise or you are you ready for that that one caught me by surprise did

It thank you Ma thank you guys thank you go ahead guys how’s Kyrie’s here good he practiced okay yeah and we saw saw hex getting us some shots except he’s getting closer uh he did everything non- contct wise today so um it was good okay was everybody else

Able to practice who’s been practi or I wouldn’t shouldn’t say who’s been practicing because you haven’t practiced in a month right but who’s been playing yeah everybody practice everybody uh who’s been playing practice okay plus so how did it feel to actually not the circumstances you would want to have a

Practice but yeah were able to get out there and have ATI yeah unfortunately uh with the you know passing uh of the coach uh we’re we’re having practice because of the circumstances um but I think uh being able to uh get some practice in uh to review some of the

Concepts uh both offensively and defensively uh was good today just going up against the Celtics team very talented team what can you guys learn from that game uh from the Celtics yeah I think uh they’re one of the best teams in the league uh they’ve

Been to the finals here uh a couple of times just understanding uh they’re well coached uh they present uh with Tatum and brown being able to score porzingis uh you look at white he’s uh playing at a high level so uh you know they they have a they’re a very talented

Team um and so it’s going to be a great test for us on Monday Jason the coaching world is such a small circle so you guys know each other so well when when something like this happens a tragedy like this does it just the whole community and that you know people

St you speak to that a little yeah I think uh you know life is fragile and just understanding uh not just for players but for coaches uh for an organization and unfortunately the passing of uh Deon here um you know it’s you never want anything like that um to

Happen um but just it puts things in perspective uh quickly and uh we all understand uh you know it’s it’s something that we have to take Serious in our health uh again not just as players but as coaches we have to be able to uh you know make sure we do our

Medical checks um because anyone can you know be touched and unfortunate it’s the Warriors that are going through this right now Jason with all the injuries this season a lot of them uh you still find yourself six games above 500 what what areas have you and the coaches that have

Grown um throughout those injuries yeah I think uh we always talk about the next man up mentality uh you know understanding uh injuries are part of this uh League uh every team is going to go through it at some point it just happens that we’ve gone through it here

Early uh but I think you give the guys credit uh they’ve been prepared uh uh not just the players but the coaches helping the guys understand what’s coming and uh and to be six games uh above 500 is is good now do we do we

Want to be better yes um but uh we are where we are and I think the big thing is as we get healthy it’s going to be another you know opportunity for rhythm to change again because you know we have been hurt um and so sometimes when you

Do get healthy uh minutes go down um rotations change so we have to go through that too the sooner we can go through that the the sooner that we can uh be judged I apologize if this question’s been asked but we see Dante back out on the court um how just how

Good does it feel to see him progress to help your team out yeah it’s great that he’s uh going in that direction when you talk about being out on the court uh he’s he did everything non contact today uh and so hopefully tomorrow uh will be another positive day where he’s not sore

And that he can do a little bit more but um again he’s going in the right direction so we’re excited to see him back on the floor kind of back on the subject of evaluating I was wondering the other day I was trying to think the other day like

Who how good are the Mavericks who are the Mavericks do you have you seen enough on the floor to actually know the answer to that question or the potential yeah I think uh the potential is uh we have the potential to be a really good

Team um being healthy is uh is going to be key uh shooting the ball is also going to be key you know when you look at being able to produce the third most threes in the corner and only you know being only shooting it at a 25 um you

Know we’re 25th in percentage you know that’s not going to you know we got to be better you know and so shooting is a big thing for us we’re a team that shoots a lot of Threes uh but also I think just again our health when without

Di we get small uh with maxi back we get a little bit bigger um but just uh we’re going to have to once we get whole we’re going to have to go through it again of understanding our roles and and understanding the rotations um and the

Sooner we can get healthy the better off we’ll be one more question you don’t mind you you haven’t complained about it uh just the lack of practice time it’s obviously a subject as you said the other week or about a week ago it’s messed up the schedule’s messed up for everybody

Meaning everybody in the NBA what is do is there a fix in mind I mean would you would you propose opening this the season window a little bit than I think it’s 171 days what would be the solution to fix see lack of practice time that’s a great question um just thinking off

The top uh you know maybe if you only have 170 days I think you said or 171 I think it would have to be more back to backs to be able to get the two days in between um I’m and I’m uh just thinking out loud um now do the players want to

Play more back to backs uh but um there’s just not enough practice practice time and and and unfortunately you’re playing every other day um injuries are a part of this but there has to be something has to be looked at of being able to have more two a days in

Between games uh at some point for practice um the the league is as young as it’s ever been um and so I think practice is is important um but right now there is there’s no time to practice appreciate it thank you coach thank you
