Grade the Mavs Trade for Kyrie Irving from A to F
Starting to feel that bittersweet empty nest syndrome
good move Doe has reach his ceiling and Morris might be a better defender
If the best happemns it is an A but if the worst happens it is an F
great vid, cept the end where you said 3rd ball handler? Joke? are you on crack? We need our FIRST rebounder now. Luka and kyrie are only two mofos youd want running the offense. Why move for a third? who the fk is gonna be anywhere near their level. What is actually needed is that dennis rodman type big that can get us to stop having 25 less possessions per game from lack of rebounding. If anything make Josh green the third, he gonna get a big chunk of the minutes freed up form the trade anyway.

Go Mavs
Kyrie wont stay in Dallas past this offseason. Missing defense, no rebounds… Kyrie will get mad and leave… and hope Luka does too

What assets does Cuban want from the Lakers for Kyrie ?
If we would have given up Bullock and Spencer I would be happy. Doe 😢. I love Spens but he just couldn’t finish his shots, and held the ball wayyyy too long without having a clue on what he wanted/could do. Loved his fire and fearlessness to go to the rim! Him and Doe will be missed. Kyrie will keep his nose clean, and bring the Mavs that much closer to being a far greater contender, possible Champs. We have Powell, Maxi, Wood, Luka, Ky. This may be it guys.
Per MavsCBA the Mavs WILL NOT have close to max money if Kyrie/Wood/Bullock etc leave. The most they can have is approx $25M which is far from max money. In fact its not even enough to replace Dinwiddie and DFS on their current contract let alone the 1st rd pick.
This pretty much has to work with Kyrie for the long term otherwise we will be in very rough shape next year – significantly worse than this season. Plus who's even going to be available this summer? That's just not how the NBA works anymore.
Kryie fought the system and won! Plus why weren't ppl mad…the "anti Jewish" movie was on Amazon…that's worst compared to kyrie just promoting it lol
Name a big name free agent that has ever chosen Dallas. Outside of 2018, look at the last 10 years of draft history. Luka is a generational talent that needs help now. It is definitely risky, but I'm glad the Mavs pulled the trigger on a big name. One of their biggest needs was a PG who could shoot the lights out off the ball. Not only did they solve that issue, they now have two of the ten all-star starters on their roster. The hardest part is done. Now they just need to make a few more moves.
01) Defensive Big Man
02) 3rd ball handler
03) Defensive SF/PF combo player to fill DFS role.
They have expiring contracts and a draft pick should they chose to make another move before the deadline. They will have 2 draft picks next summer. I'm leaning towards the go ahead & make another move. Powell & a pick to the Spurs for Poeltl? Wood to anybody who wants him for a solid bigger defensive wing. THJ for anyone lol.
At the 9:00 mark you act like the guy murdered someone before. I've yet to have someone explain to me how that film he posted a link to is antisemitic, it's on Amazon prime for all to watch. Also with the vaccine, I respect the guy for standing up and choosing not to get it. Why do people think others should be forced into getting it? Think outside the box a little bit.

Kyrie left Nets because the way he was treated for being a free thinker with the jab nonsense.
Dallas becomes a more attractive opportunity for free agents with kyrie, and next years free agency is going to be interesting.
Going to miss DFS
I feel that this is the ultimate mistake that Dallas could make. I am going to support the team and kyrie no matter what but I feel that he is going to destroy the team from the inside and that Luka will be gone in some seasons. You have given too much for such a random player and who doesn't care at all about the Mavs. And even if he doesn't get crazy outside the court we are not among the best teams in the NBA with this defense. But hey I hope I am wrong…

Most important position in modern basketball is pointguard. You need to have good game organizer if you want to compete for title. Mavs now have the best duo of playmakers in NBA BY FAR!!! Now they only need to bring some strong defenders, rebounders that shoot 3pt over 33% and they will be scary team to play against! Also Imagine Hardy right now… he will have on training two of the best playmakers when it comes to handle and little tricks that play in nba right now… he could learn somethign from them, so pls. do not trade Hardy.
This team still in dire need of a big, even more so if they are still going the path of ditching Wood (a mistake).
You just can't make a move like the Kyrie trade and still run Dwight freaking Powell out there as your starting center, its batshit insane.
Kyrie is a fearless true to himself. But i feel he will prove people he can commit
If K. Irving wants to play… This is " the end of doubling Luka Doncic Era" .
Hopefully we can keep wood and still get some kind of rim protector
A-, because championship is in play. We replace Dinwiddie with Kyrie and Do with Markieff. Still need Bogdanovic to bring it home.
A (at the moment) for getting the second star.
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?
Lukyrie
Fake media doesn't like him but Alex Jones like him
The white boy will win championships
The complications with Kyrie relate to him getting played by conspiracy theorists and refusing to admit it. He could have found out that the film he rubber stamped was a Nazi propaganda film to dehumanize Jewish people, but he wasn’t smart enough to know he had to check it out before spewing the crap, and when it became clear even to him he’s too “proud” to admit being played.
Nick struggling to get through mentioning Kyrie's anti-semitism without laughing, multiple times, on the podcast is crazy tho👀
I personally would like to see Mavs move Powell and go get Bol Bol!
funny how you believe an assumption that Luka signed on the trade but you don’t believe when he SAYS he didn’t put pressure for the trade ..
Guys, Dallas Mavericks are actually able to win games without Luka if Kyrie runs the floor. How big it is!
Grow a pair and ask Kyrie if he wants to join y’all on the pod. Get a fresh interview so we can learn more about Kyrie and his mindset.
Luka X Ky best dou in the league. League is in danger!!!!!!!!!!!
This duo is like that one from the movie white man cant jump
Hott take mavs will do better without Spencer dinwiddie selling
This will make you third mavs! Not good enough to win! They haven't worked together.. KY is out after he finds out he is deserving but will never be the star! All about $ dummies. He out.
Did Dirk sign off on Kyrie?
