It's kind of unfortunate. Kidd will live to coach another day after Dallas inevitably fires him. Dumont will sell the franchise at some point for a ridiculous profit. Nico will be forever NBA radioactive.

One thing I lose sight of regarding that trade is Doncic is only 26 years old right now.
 


Shoot, I kept nodding off during this one. Thought Clark would have gotten more minutes. (Edit:brain dead. I looked at points and thought it was minutes)
Did watch the 1st quarter of the Houston/Cleveland game. Thought the Rockets looked good.

Did you look at ESPN box score? They recently changed the order and it's got me all screwed up

His shooting form from distance is so wonky that it's impossible for him to replicate it consistently. He seems to release the ball as part of his jumping motion which resembles a 12 year old not strong enough to release the shot once in the air.

I'm not holding out much hope that he'll ever be more than an average backup PG in this league.

Weight room time. Until then he's going to have to live in mid range world

They drafted him as one of the best shooters in the draft.

It's too bad, because if he could shoot, he'd be a force. He can get is shoot rather easily.
 



4 of the next 5 games are against teams with winning records. Edwards and the shooting slump might have to part ways.
 

There is lots of speculation that Connelly covets Kyrie Irving should the Mavs continue to poop the bed and make him available.

Naz and Dilly for Irving...would you do it if that's all it would take? I've never been a fan of the guy who believed the Earth was flat.

Pass unless we're getting draft capital in that deal (not going to happen as I'd expect Dallas would demand the opposite). He's 33 and coming off a major knee injury and has had prior history of knee and shoulder surgery. That said, he has always been one of my favorite players to watch with the ball. he does many things few guys can and has the ability to take over games when he wants which would be a plus on this team if he's still able to get to that level.
tbh i actually expect more that the Mavs hold him out this year, tank, and enter a pretty strong draft class looking to rebuild around Flagg (Naz and Dilly don't help that) and to move AD and/or Kyrie for picks given they're currently hard capped at the 2nd apron with injury prone aging stars and a way past his prime Klay Thompson. They're so far from contending that they'd be wise to find a buyer if they can to try reload like OKC did and pick accumulate heavily
