What do the Mavs need to change without Maxi for the next few months?
Day 5 of asking for the old hardy party song back
you forgot about frank. big mistake.
They should look from other struggling n underperforming teams like bulls wolves hawks or raptors.. r there any realistic trade options from there?
Get free market agent Nate Nelson.
Time to tank. Time to tank. Time to tank.
anything below
They adjust by tanking for Wenbanyama
We need a massive change. Put everyone up for trade except the bang bros, Luka, Maxi, Green and Dinwiddie. Dont go for a star, instead get multiple GOOD NBA players. Someone like Jordan Clarkson and Bojan.
This season is just a Luka season now for him to get as many personsl accolades as possible maybe the scoring title nothing else with maxi and green out we are a play in team now.
Really bummed about Maxi, hope he bounces back and will be back for the last half of the season and playoffs- he’s desperately needed. Time for some trades let’s go Nico show us what you can do
Maxi is gonna be out much longer then 6-8 weeks, never seen a big man with a torn hamstring return, with any impact, that quick.. unless we trade for someone we will finish .500
All these people saying to just tank for Wenbayama remind me of the same people who were so hyped by the chance we could get Giannis back then.
Well obviously we didn't get Giannis. So tell me, what will happen if we don't get Wenbayama and we put all our eggs in that basket? What then?
More sensible solutions please.

Well, without Maxi I think this season is somewhat over. I dont think we will tank, but I also dont think we can reach a Top 6 seed. So MAYBE we should be sellers, not buyers in the trading market. For example sell Wood for someone like Bamba+2nd. Sell Dinwiddie/Bullock for Russel/young filler, or THJ for LeVert… something like that! Lateral moves that bring in either younger Talents and/or open up cap space next summer.
Next season play the young guys and try to steal some talents from oter teams with the cap space. If we do all 3 trades, we would have around 25 mio in cap space. That should be enough to bring some younger players in. After that we know in 2024 if Green/Hardy and the other younger guys are good enough to compete and we can go in for a true co Star, cause we have all future picks available.
Atm I just dont see any realistic possibility to make a trade that puts us over the line to become a real conender.
So sometimes its better to take a step back and recalibrate.
The only possible good thing with Maxi Kleber's injury Could be that they aquire the starplayer we need on the team sooner
Issac, STOP HATING CWOOD for God´s sake! Stop it!
Frankly, tanking is the best, this team can do
So, try to explain to me how an entire team has no defense dominant players. If this was managements objective, their plan sucks.
Isaac said it, "We don't know why Jason Kidd is doing what he is doing." That's it he's the problem and nobody wants to talk about it.
Wtf are these comments smoking 🤣
We have literally no assets. No good young pieces, no picks. What on earth could we offer in a trade lol
