Saw an article on SI today that says Dirk's injury rehab is taking longer than expected and he may not be back until January. Ugh...they gotta be around .500 till he gets back. Even that might not be enough given how deep the West is.
Considering they were expected by everyone to be like 1-7 at this point, and have been compe ive in every game they have lost while beating quality opponents like Portland and LA with games missed by 5 major rotation players (Kaman, Dirk, Marion, Beaubois, Brand), 4-4 is nothing to be too ashamed about. If anything, it's agitating because they could easily be 6-2 or 7-1, even without their top 2 players in Dirk and Marion. The Utah game is the only one they flat out got beaten in, and that was the result of a complete 3rd quarter meltdown.
I don't think anyone is saying the Mavs are a le team. Just that they are a team that you cannot sleep on, or they can make you pay, and can have a solid playoff run, considering so many people don't expect them to make the playoffs (which is re ed to begin with)

Then say it and tank,although I think that's not what Dirk meant.He just thought he could beat the 3-6 weeks time frame but it seems he can't.
lol almost losing to the Wizards. How much suck is in this team? haha
you should have thought this way ever since dallas fell in the Deron conquest..
I doubt if the Mavs want to tank and base their future around that nappy headed jig from Kentucky.
They ing suck. I doubt Dirk can save this group.
Dirk is full TOSB, and there is no coming back from that. Mavs are 1st round fodder. Nazi Dirk will come back, for sure, but to only give mavfan false hope in order to increase ticket and merchandise sales, IMO TBH.
deluded mavfan
fluke championship
dirk living of fluke championship glory
Dirk should pull off a 1996 DRob tbh or should I say Nelson/Carlisle pulling off a 1996 Pop
lol boy overly optimistic and leaving chat
Omg another loss?
Mavs
better watch out, back in like '05 or so i got banned for calling Dirk the same. lol
Just thought of something: mavs are relying on a bunch of has-beens and never-will-be's.
fluke championship
Mav fans in here trying to make excuses for their sorry ass team when it's their owner's inability to reel in real talent that did them in
Losing out on the D-Will and D12 sweepstakes
Sup, 21_Blessings.
getting blown out by the gangbanger-less Chicago Bulls
Shouldn't have shipped out all their first round picks, tbh
Mavs are becoming slowly but surely one of the worst team in the league
I don't think they're gonna be that good even when Dirk comes back, even the 2011 version of Dirk, if that's something that even still exists. Probably better to tank for a lottery pick, resign Mayo and use the rest of the cap space to get another All Star. The ceiling for this team when Dirk comes back is a 7 or 8 seed and a quick first-round exit. And Dirk's return doesn't at all guarantee a playoff appearance, not with how deep the West is.
Who Dirk supports is none of our business anyways.He can support Hitler if he wants.
We're just not very good anymore... but it's okay, we got the championship.
I'm predicting less than 40 wins this year.. and was thinking 40-45 the start of the year.
gonna be a huge upset if the mavs miss the playoffs somehow tbh. the team hasn't been playing too bad even w/o dirk and they will have an easier schedule come the second half of season, where they'll be going on a winning spree with dirk back
