Tre Jones and Zach Collins both starting tonight, for anyone wants to go back and relive the glory of the 2022-23 Spurs season.
I hate to be Mavs fan. After being in the Finals, trading Luka for the corpse of AD, and now losing Kyrie for the rest of the season with torn ACL. Damn..
Dallas Mavericks star Kyrie Irving will miss the rest of the NBA season after suffering a torn ACL in his left knee, the team announced on Tuesday.

The only minor saving grace for Mavs fan is they still retain their 25 and 26 first round picks
If I was them, I'd move AD for more picks
What tiny window they had (if they even had one) is gone.
I'd pay more for AD then for KD... it'll never happen though
And being that Kyrie won't be back until his age 34 season, how good can we reasonably expect him to ever be again? Especially since everyone looks like a shadow of their former self that first year back after an ACL tear.
i mean he'll be 33 at the start of next season. you think he's out all of next year as well?
this one dude seems to think that could be the case given the video
he would need another whole season to even get back to form and still would look washed giving his age. An ACL takes 1 year of rehab and another year of playing til you get back to being yourself. The Mavs are cooked.

PHX imploding
Dallas Mavericks in 2025:
- Dereck Lively II suffers ankle stress fracture
- Luka Doncic traded
- Anthony Davis suffers strained adductor
- Daniel Gafford suffers sprained MCL
- Quentin Grimes scores 44 points
- Jalen Brunson named Player of the Week
- Lakers move up to 2 seed
- Mavs announce season ticket price increase
- Kyrie Irving tears ACL
- Jaden Hardy sprains ankle
- Klay Thompson/Dinwiddi/Christie show
they came back and won the game on the back of durant
I saw that. LAC was up 20 plus and controlled portions of the game!
But there feels like trouble brewing in PHX and I'm not sure that win last night can fix the perception Bud may be on his way out and that core, including KD, is a walking extinction right now. Things can always change but there is like over half a billion tied up in Book/Beal/KD grand total and the results are unacceptable yet somewhat predictable. Gotta sense a reset approaching but perhaps they can pivot out of it more smoothly. It's the Suns, I'm not holding my breath.
Cuban put in work to make the Mavs respectable, then sold to some crazy idiotic casino-obsessed Trumper ghouls. Kind of hilarious.
Mavs are bad, Spurs may even catch them now.
So, obviously Kyrie likely opts into the last year of his deal with Dallas, but then they're off the hook from him. They can apply for a disable player exemption and have the ability to sign someone with the non-taxpayer MLE for 1 season, that won't do them too much good though. Definitely a rough spot to be in, going all in around Kyrie and AD, and then Kyrie's career in Dallas might be over.

Mavericks should and probably will go all out tank mode this off-season by trading Davis and Kyries expiring contract for picks. What’s the point in keeping AD next season without Kyrie, that’s just destined for the 10th seed at best and play in exit.
They have their own pick in this years draft and the 2026 draft then in 2027 their first goes to Charlotte top 2 protected.
They’ll get a top 5 pick in next years draft and they have to hope they hit and rebuild from there.
I do think their new ownership is trying to tank the team with the Luka trade so this would all align with that plan.
That is an absolutely wild stat given the Celtics history.
Hope this doesn't cause DAL to reload too soon with regards to the value of SA holding their pick for the 2030 DAL or MIN FRP swap rights
I loved the idea of hording picks at first but now it has made me a nervous wreck trying to anticipate the respective team's collapses and timing them right to exact the best possible value lol
that and dancing around protections like the TOR saga rollercoaster
totally agree. I guess whenever they were good, they were pretty complete teams so any two both hitting 40 would be a bad sign since more distributed scoring would tend to indicate the dominance of their legacy teams?
But how has Brown Tatum not duo'd for double 40s? McHale avg 26ppg in 86-87 though, he could've hit it with Bird one time? How does Garnett/Pierce not hit that at least once?
Crazy enough that Pritchard got 40, but Derrick too, in the same game is even wilder. These aren't even their best players. It's amazing the Celtics have someone as good as Pritchard that low down on their depth chart on the roster. Spurs have no-one like that.
If the Mavs blow it up, what would it take to get Anthony Davis? Would you guys want him?
No. He’s a tease with that talent and ability, and then he’ll play 58 games.
WTF.....Celtics is ing stacked tbh. They have legit 6, 7 players who could score 30 pts at any given nights
Who shall be the last 3 NBA champions>>?
