Life’s been crazy juggling a young family, day job, and side fitness business. Perhaps the less than surprising consequence of that burning the candle at both ends is that I’ve gotten sick a few times along the way. But I’m good, and I’m gonna keep doing my best to deliver.
Very impressed with the win against Okc. Difficult to say, but Kidd coached good that game, slowing Shai down and kudos to the players showing up on both end of the floor! (that includes Luka playing defense!) Mavericks definitely gave a warning shot to the league because even without Gafford and Pj, the Mavs still stuck around with top teams, even beating a few, but it's always been the downfall of the Mavs being small against elite teams. Now, with Gafford and Pj adding more size, versatility, and talent at the frontcourt. Mix that with arguably the best backcourt duo!... This is looking to be by far the best Dallas roster we've seen since late 2000s!
As long as they give and show EFFORT on defense they can go further than what media says. MAVS definitely back in the mix for sure with Gaff and PJ. As long as Luka be Luka, Kyrie does just enough to help scoring wise PLAYOFF KYRIE might be different 🔥 for us something we haven’t seen yet 👀 and everyone else contributes collectively man they are DEEP!
Gobert makes 41 million this year and it goes up to 43 and 46 next 2 years. Lively + Gafford are making about 17 million combined and 18, 19ish next 2 years. So they are more than 2x as cheap as Gobert himself. Lively is on a rookie contract and Gafford is on a very good deal.
PJ & Gafford are who the Mavs wanted Omax & Lively to develop into in 3-5 years. Just need a 3rd option scorer who isn't a defenive liability so you can play them with Luka & Ky, and this team is a Championship contender. A 3rd ball-handler would be ideal too.
@@Rok_Piletic love them both & I think they could develop into those players... But very unproven NBA caliber contributors compared to the rest of the team. I think they make great 9th/10th men in the rotation right now.
LOL where did Brunson come from?? I thought you were talking about Hardy & Exum? Not every player turns into Brunson just because they play for the Mavs... Brunson was ready for this kind of role after 3 1/2 years of continuous NBA experience. Hardy has barely played a full NBA season with plenty of DNPCDs, and Exum was out of the NBA the past 2 years. Completely different situations & players imo.@@Rok_Piletic
Love your analysis, but do you know any adjective other than "fantastic"? You say it at least 3 times a minute and not only it sounds extremely repetitive but it makes the rest of the arguments sound more simplistic than they are, basically because "fantastic" doesn't add anything of value. Try to find some other way of expressing what you feel about it, because it really took me out of the video, which I suppose is not what you'd like
