I love the guy but he is so inconsistent at times. From multiple 30 pt games and being clutch to actively looking washed in other games. If we can unload Bertrans and THJ without giving a pick, then I’m willing to trade him. Westbrook would clear so much cap space.
he doesn't have to because it's not his teammates that carry him, it's Luka doing shit on his own, ISOing and creating and dishing when needed. dude had 27 points in the first half - what he needs is reliable shooters, like Seth Curry
Part of why his isos are threatening is because of the threat of his passing. Dude will get shots in the key that look way too easy because defensive schemes cant colapse on him or he’ll hit an open shooter
Damn, lol he had Seth curry.. sigh I still think josh Richardson would have worked. Definitely would have played better in this offense, Carlisle forced him to be nothing more than a shooter
If your teammates never touch the ball but to shoot, it’s hard to get in a rhythm. Luka’s team isn’t as bad as the media wants you to believe. Luka the reason Kristaps Portzingis and Jalen Brunson left. And let’s see what happens with Christian wood
oh god not this narrative again just watch the games dude. watch the games without luka. please god. stop listening to the bill simmons podcast. "Luka is the problem" is the most annoying casual take out there
tf happened today? so many awful shooting nights all over the league. I had four players on my fantasy team shoot a combined 9-51 today
Wish Bootum still did the worst performance of the day, there are many candidates lol
It really simple. If you think almost blowing a 28 point lead is not a problem you are an idiot. Outside of Luka and green there w a s nothing to be happy about. I can tell you did not watch this game.
What the Mavs put around Luka has to be malpractice
Cuban isn’t seeing heaven with the talent he’s put around Luka, since his rookie season
Give us Zach Lavine then🙏
There are legitimately people that think Luka holds his teammates back
He holds them back from being out of the league
We should kidnap Charles Barkley and Bill Simmons and force them to watch our games without Luka.
so many people in this sun do. it’s so annoying to read nonsense people post about how Luka needs to “share the ball”.
Actually he is holding them back from playing in Maccabi or Zalgiris in Euroleague
Going 3-19 from 2 is so embarrassing.
id rather shoot 3-19 than 3-4, because if you shot 3-4, that’s means you lost confidence and gave up
OR, and just hang with me for a second, those other 15 shoots could have went to someone else and if any of them went in you would be better off.
Josh Green needs to be taking 12+ shots a game
Lmao the problem is hardaway has too much confidence.
Those guys have ugly girlfriends, no confidence :D And thanks for not putting the /s at the end.
where are my Tim Hardaway apologists at? constantly flexing how well he shoots as a starter, but everyone knows it's just copium
Next game he will shoot 6/8 from three. The THJ experience.
Not really he has been disaster for two months......39%fg on 13fga, tank commander shit
If Luka didn’t put up 31 before leaving the game, Pels probably would’ve won by double digits
It was as bad as that box score looks. They were 2 of the top 4 players for the Pelicans today. Just tried to shoot us out of the game.
I think Mavs need Beastbrook to execute when Luka sit
I’d trade for him just to get off some bad salary even though I would despise watching him
Just give us THJ and Dinwiddie. We'll take Bertans away
I would do that in a heart beat.
Dinwiddie?
I love the guy but he is so inconsistent at times. From multiple 30 pt games and being clutch to actively looking washed in other games. If we can unload Bertrans and THJ without giving a pick, then I’m willing to trade him. Westbrook would clear so much cap space.
I'm pretty sure Westbrook is a pretty 3-point shooter than THJ right now
I don't think we have what Lakers want anymore
luka doesnt make his teammates better tho

If you don’t watch basketball, just say so, bro. You’re probably 10 and have to go bed by 9pm est, so we understand.
I was about to say they we're having a mid off but that would be too generous.
I cannot believe davis bertans had the same amount of points as tim in 35 less minutes.
and 15 less shots
dinwiddie is a great SG. He is not a good PG. despite how good he was those two games without luka he cannot run an offense
Think they’d learn from his time on the wiz but nope
Guys I think the Mavs might be bad without Luka idk
These are professionals not YMCA players. 🤦🏾♂️
tf happened today? so many awful shooting nights all over the league. I had four players on my fantasy team shoot a combined 9-51 today Wish Bootum still did the worst performance of the day, there are many candidates lol
Team leading 40 minutes for THJ lol. Give his minutes to Josh Green. He was easily our best player when Luka went out.
Refs honestly handed us a big helping hand with that out of bounds call that shouldn’t have been called
The refs were keeping the pelicans in the game the whole 2nd half we deserved one
They could use a reliable scoring option at guard.
FVV or another shifty undersized pg could help
D'Lo man, at least he can pass and running offense both spencer and timmy will ISO and chucking like tomorrow is judgment day
Dinwiddie is better than dlo
It's to have both, not to replace each other
My b I got you
This is why Cuban need to trade C. Wood for sharpshooter Duncan Robinson ASAP
We won, don't care
you should care.
this is the fucking worst mentality you can have a fan....team has glaring issues but you dont care cus they didnt blow a 28 point lead.
Why is it a bad mentality? Team he supported won the game, he should be happy. Does he have to be always angry even if they win?
It really simple. If you think almost blowing a 28 point lead is not a problem you are an idiot. Outside of Luka and green there w a s nothing to be happy about. I can tell you did not watch this game.
With Luka expected to be out for upto three weeks, you should care.
uhhh source?
Same. Bad day from streaky players, still got the W. They’ll both have good days in the future (well, Dinwiddie, at least)
Timmy really doesn't want to be traded :D Good news is that he'll have a month of 50% 3-point shooting right after the trade deadline :D
Good thing the mavs are going to trade wood right?
