    Well I’ve learned we can have the hottest team in the league with massive improvements across the board, and Blazer fans can act like hell has surfaced for good. Y’all funny and temperamental

    We just have common sense and foresight.

    We know we are fucked. Sorry you don't see it yet, but I'll be here when you realize it.

    They will never see it. There was plenty of fans who didn't see it at the end with Dame either.

    Press conference was at 4:45 I listened to it. It was on 620 am

    He said they will be playing to win. The guys deserve their crack at the playoffs he said.

    I mean, kinda... he can't go out and say "we're going to tank."

    He said the win-streak didn't impact how they approached the trade deadline.

    It wouldn't have mattered if we made a trade. The Board GM's would still keep playing internet NBA Guru.

    If we were offered pennies on the dollar then keep it rolling. We've had a history of shitty trades and some good ones.

    In the midst of a pretty good run, i'm gonna go full RIP CITY and continue to pull for this team.

    He said he owes to them to win. So we’re going all in on that play-in. So obviously not resting the vets.

    If you’re going all in on the play-in I’d assume they have championship aspirations. I mean isn’t that the point of being in the playoffs?

    More and more reports are coming out that one of the main reasons why the Mavs made the Luka trade and executed it on the down low is because they didnt want Luka's drinking problem to get dug up and reduce his trade value.
