I’m happy about Dinwiddie coming back!
I want to hear him apologize 😂
Dinwiddie should only be forgiven once he says “Mama knows best” 😂
Naturally, he's a momma's boy! 😂
Day 3 of asking for the old intro back
Dinwiddie will be 6th man off the bench. He will start when Luka or Kyrie miss. Exum will drift out of the rotation. This squad has a highest floor a Luka team has had in Dallas.
We need a back up 4 after pj. If pj goes down God forbid maxi is injury prone, marshall is a 3 klays backup but he could back up pj at the 4 , omax isn't ready yet . They are solid for sure regardless. They gonna have to pay hardy next season I see him as trade bait with maxi expiring contract.
Never did and still could care less what Dinwiddie said.
With dinwiddie back now all we gave up in the kyrie trade was doe doe a 1st and 2 seconds.
New intro is pretty fire!
The depth of this team really does look strong, and when everyone is healthy… some players are going to lose some minutes.
01) Gaff & Lively will still half mins at the center. Kleber will pick up the rare 3rd string minutes.
02) Luka, Kyrie, & Klay will all start, but Kidd will likely sub one of them out within 5 mins. My thought is Grimes would come in for Klay and act as their main PoA defender. When Kyrie sits, Klay comes back in. I see those four players playing the majority of the minutes 1-3. They can all be interchanged. The few minutes left behind that rotation will have Exum, Dinwiddie, & Hardy fighting to earn.
03) Naji played behind a DEEP Pelican forward roster, and I fully expect him to excel with the Luka effect. I wouldn't be surprised if he starts at PF eventually. He's 6'7" 220 pounds, and for reference PJ is 6'7" 230 pounds. Then you have Kleber for limited mins at PF.
It gives Kidd soooo many options. If you want a run & gun pure offense – Luka, Kyrie, Klay, Naji, Gaff. If you need a lockdown defense for a stretch – Exum, Grimes, Naji, PJ, & Lively. If you want to go "switchable" – Luka, Grimes, Naji, PJ, Kleber. At any point they can run any combination of offense/defense, think Luka, Exum, Klay, PJ, Gaff for a stretch then switch to Kryie, Dinwiddie, Grimes, Naji, & Lively. I'm looking forward to watching some Mavs games this season.
“ pound for pound best executive” 😂
He didn’t voice it well but all Dinwiddie meant was the lakers was new and the mavs were familiar. No biggie.
Let’s just play that Ozzy song that goes “Mama I’m coming home”.
Care just a lil
You got it both wrong about who will get a lot of DNP and it is not dinwiddie or exum it's going to be hardy and omax lol
He’s Luka magic
old intro is still better
🦝
I wonder if it’s more fun at mom’s house? 😅😂
Anything
Instead of Morris hope we sign Dom Barlow as PF after Lawson cut
Dinwiddie……”I f***ed up 🥲”
Kidd…….”ok go score 30”
Starters: Luka, Kyrie, Klay, PJ, DLive
Bench: Dinwiddie, Quinton, Exum, Naji, Gaff
Lol Exum will have more DNP's because this guy is very injury prone. Also, Dinwiddie will thrive here. 18 months ago he was our 2nd option lol. Even if he fell off, he can easily be our 3rd ball handler off the bench and play 15-20MPG.
I don't care about what Dinwiddie said, he chose the Lakers for more playing time and a more defined role because his contract was up. That said, I think that everybody – including teammates – should make fun of him for coming back to Momma at every opportunity possible… hahahahaha…
exum DNP
Dinwiddie, might cause a problem with the mavs team chemistry due his Mama's comment. He is like saying what Kuzma said in lowkey that Mavs are not yet title contender and LAL was the big deal. He needs to apologize to the Mavs fan who never stop believing
slightly just chillen at his new lake house near the dallas beach. heck yeah
It’s Luka Magic !! Perfect ring to it
