Tim MacMahon On Why Klay Chose Dallas, What Mavs Moves Could Be Next | Shan & RJ 

Djj was elevated by playing with Luka. Marshall is an upgrade for sure. He’ll experience the same elevation as djj, green, finney, Dinwiddie, and others have experienced playing with Luka. Excited for what grimes can bring also

As a huge mavs fan, I can honestly say I can't stand Tim Macmahon

Last year klay wasnt into it you cant judge off last season. You saw with kyrie how much being wanted amd happy does for you. Klay will shine in dallas.

Shan wearing a hoodie in the dead of summer is the biggest takeaway

I feel VERY confident that Klay is going to have a TREMENDOUS season this year. He seems to have been insulted so he's motivated to prove something to people. He's in a new environment that isn't NEARLY as toxic as teammates getting sucker-punched in practices and everything else. And sometimes all people really need is a change of scenery to revitalize them. 13 years is a LONG time anywhere. And I'm sure there were many times for Klay where showing up to the stadium felt more like work than having a good time putting a show on for 10's of thousands. It's just human nature to get accustomed to things and take them for granted. So maybe a new stadium, new security people to get to know and be friendly with, new training staff, a whole set of new teammates....it's all fresh to Klay now and maybe reminds him of being a young player in the league & puts a pep in his step. I feel like Klay is just the epitome of a player needing a change of scenery. The pressure of his contract situation was clearly taking a toll on him. The Draymond Circus that went on all season long. The fans & media getting on his case for not living up to his 40m a year salary. So maybe coming to Dallas will help Klay become a better player like it did with Kyrie. Like how Kyrie was able to find peace off the court, Klay can show up in Dallas and find some peace as well. Golden State might not be like Boston or NYC but the Warriors have been a marquee team and I'm sure the media has them under a microscope. And it doesn't help with Draymond raining down extra National Media coverage throughout the year. But the Dallas media is more tame than that when it comes to the Mavs. The Cowboys are a different monster. But the Mavs aren't given that microscope scrutiny.

Klay will get so many wide open 3s he will not believe it. The same wide open 3s THJ bricked over and over.

Tim McMahon if you noticed gets a lot of his info from asking others 🤣 the media is out of control

Coincidence that good free agents are coming to Dallas now that Cuban is not in charge? I don't think so.

Sorry maxi Powell exum😢 totally 18 m + 4 m mle some first and Hardy or omax😊😊😢

All we need now is Alec Burks and/or Spencer Dinwiddie and it's a wrap

Mavs have been in a better position to win than the Cowboys since Cuban came on the scene. These dudes are jealous af.

When Klay scored 37 points in one quarter most of those shots were catch and shoot.

defense gon take a dip obviously but we don't really rely that much on POA defense ... i don't like the fit buy if everything fits klay could be easily and 18 ppg scorer on 40%+ from 3 and play elite TEAM defense since he still Is 6'6 with a strong body sending guys to lively and contesting midranges from the side/back

I like the Klay, Naji and Grimes pickup. It's a few step back on defense but we added more shooting and skill which we lack. Defense will improve as the season goes.

Gonna miss Klay in the Bay Area.

Tim is a GOOOOOOOF

So is shan

You can hate on Cuban all you want if he & Donnie didn't draft Dirk and make the trades and signings they did the Mavericks would not have a championship right now. Donnie and Cuban drafted Dirk then Luka. All Nico has done is draft black players, trade for black players and sign black players in free agency. If he had been GM back in 2018 he would not have drafted Luka Doncic. So if you are fine with an all black team then go ahead and cheer on.

He’s better defensively than Josh green? I’ve heard absolutely no one say that. In the world.

Tim is a hack

I want Dinwiddie Back in a Mavs Uniform. Mavs need another creator. I would also give a draft pick for Brogdon. Dennis Smith Jr would’ve been nice in the start of 2023 when you had Luka, Dinwiddie together after Brunson left, but not now. I need someone better. Dinwiddie would help a lot on this bench as someone that can attack the lane too.

Wtf would Klay feel betrayed by the warriors? They paid him the max when he sat out s season. They offered him more money than Dallas per year. He had the chance to prove himself over the next two years to get more years. He sulked. Shame

Boy is washed.

Luka PG Kyrie SG PG Klay SG Gafford PF Lively C Dallas should get another subs big man like Bol Bol, D Howard, Theiss

Without djj and josh i dont think they can play fast next year

He is still overpaid. He just can't accept the fact that he isn't the same player before the injuries. Ego made him leave GSW. He still believes he deserves max contract.
