Cuban on JK trade, Mavs future

[jack sommerset]

They were the 6th seed and in the middle of a massive tailspin. Granted, the Kidd trade didn't take them out of that tailspin this season, but there's a lot of ridiculous revisionist history being spun about how Dallas was some unstoppable machine before the Kidd trade and then suddenly everything went to after the trade.

I don't think they were in a tailspin. I still don't know why the trade happened. They had a winning record against the top teams in the west before the Kidd trade. After the trade they went like 2-16, not sure but some ridiculous number.

And to think what they gave up for Kidd is what still makes my head shake. Don't get me wrong. I don't think the Mavericks would have won the Championship this year. I do think they would have been in the top 3 of West and without question would have beat the Hornets with there old team. Just my opinion.

How the does Dirk choke?Yeah he missed the freethrow in game 3 but even if he did make it,it would've been OVERTIME which means the game still could've been lost.The MAVS choked,not Dirk himself you dumbass.

And anyone with a half a brain knew how to shut down Dirk the way GS did.

Put an athletic defender on him and bring the double from the blindside.His passing skills aren't great so shut Dirk down,the mavs go down.

Nash is probably one of the worst defensive PG's in the league and when your in the west with young,quick pointguards like Parker and CP3,you need speed and defense(something nash doesnt have).

Dirk is the worst defensive power forward in the entire NBA. Seriously, shut the up.

[Holmes_Fans]

Didn't Nash LEAVE?

He wanted to much money and mark wasn't going to match. Great teammate and friend Nash!

[pauls931]

Phoenix made the same mistake with Joe Johnson. Imagine if the Suns had kept that 04-05 team together plus beef up thier bench. Sarver was the worst thing to happen to Phoenix.

agree, pissing off Joe to where he insisted leaving set the team back bigtime. Since losing joe, they had a serious dropoff in performance when nash hit the bench since they haven't got a guard that could play the point worth a crap since.

Yup, phoenix showed him more money and Cuban thought it was too much.

Amare Stoudemire would like to argue with you.

Agreed. Dirk is a joke.

He wasn't going to win in Dallas with a mentally weak who chokes annually in the playoffs in Dirk.

Cuban is a ty owner.

America, eatin' my lunch from a single bowl in my parents basement, where I'm livin'. Happy Birthday, I'm forty-three.

Don't want to waste those precious calories...chewin'. Jesus come move my jaw for me, help me get my sloppy food down my throat.

Go back to Forum Blue and Gold or Lakersground. You're the worst poster on Spurstalk. Seriously, shut the up.

So says the Whornets fan that started paying attention to basketball for the first time ever around March of this year.

New Orleans in the Spring: a pleasant diversion until Saints training camp.

Seriously, did you even watch the NO-Dallas series? Dirk, Terry and Bass were the only guys who showed up for us.

[Findog]

Don't watch your own team much, do you?

Pau Gasol can't guard an empty gym. Dirk has historically face-raped him.

How does a 7th seed w/o HCA "choke" to a 2nd seed that is a better team?

Hangover from a 67 win team ting the bed against an eight seed.

Either way, Dallas is a terrible franchise with an overrated, farce of a MVP winner. Now that they are going to hire Carlise so we can expect more playoff failure for years to come.

At least you Maverick fans still have Cuban's blogs to read.

Right, the Mavericks were clearly superior to the Hornets and just the bed against an inferior opponent. Right. Typical Faker fan.

Dude, do us all a favor and get the back to the shallow end of the pool where you belong. This is Spurstalk, not the ESPN messageboards. It's pretty hard to do on a board that counts da_suns_fan, Holt's Cat and AggieHoops among its members, but it bears repeating: you're just about the worst poster on here. Your trolling attempts aren't even funny or make us laugh. Seriously, is this all you've got? How old are you, 12? Did you know that that old guy that hipchecked Steve Nash into the scorer's table used to play for your team? Did you know that slow fat guy that plays for Phoenix was once the best player in the League and won three les with the Lakers? Did you know Pat Riley used to be somebody other than "that old guy" in Miami? Did you know Byron Scott used to be famous for something other than being the head coach of the Hornets?

You suck.

Really? I thought that old dude was just the guy who threw that towel in Ainge's face and won two rings with The Dream. He played for the Lakers, seriously???

Did you know that slow fat guy that plays for Phoenix was once the best player in the League and won three les with the Lakers?

"I was injured on company time so I will do my rehab on company time."

Did you know Pat Riley used to be somebody other than "that old guy" in Miami?

Yeah, I remember when he guaranteed a back to back championship (something Spurs fans will never experience). Then he turned into a huge in New York/Miami.

Did you know Byron Scott used to be famous for something other than being the head coach of the Hornets?

More proof that Jerry West is the greatest GM to ever live. Norm Nix for B-Scott was highway robbery.

You suck.

You fail.

I ask you again, how does a lesser team "choke" against a better team? Did the Jazz choke last night against the Lakers? If you don't like being called out as stupid, stop typing stupid things. It's as simple as that.

Ask Dirk. When he's not getting slapped in the playoffs by a 'superior' team he is choking in the playoff to 'inferior' teams.

I guess you're right. The Mavs didn't choke against the Warriors since Goldenstate was the better team, with the better coach.

Where the are all the Laker fans coming from this year? Seriously, I haven't seen this much -talking and bravado out of any of them in ages. It's like they were ashamed of their team until they started winning once again and felt brave enough to come out of the woodwork. 21 Blessings is nothing more than a front-runner. (cue some bull story about being a fan since he was 8 or something.)

[Purple & Gold]

Mavs might wanna think about trading for somebody who can score from the post.

Yeah, 27, 12 and 4 is getting " -slapped." The Mavs got slapped by the Hornets, Dirk did his part.

I guess you're right. The Mavs didn't choke against the Warriors since Goldenstate was the better team, with the better coach.

Considering he was hurt against the Warriors and played through it, I wouldn't really sweat it. But yeah, playing hurt against the Warriors because its the playoffs, coming back on one leg and saving the Mavs from the lottery, he's soft as charmin'.

If you want to spout off on something and be taken seriously, you at least need to know what the you're talking about. Otherwise, I'm just going to point out how dumb and full of you are.

21 Blessings has been a Laker fan since February 1, 2008.

Cry more.

You're the one who registered during the Mavs 06 playoff run. The only front runner here is you.

Oh, and Nellie absolutely coached circles around Avery in that series.
