    Mavs are settling on THJ.

    I think Powell is back.

    that place is a cesspool. why so many people from the team and national media follow it is a mystery to me.

    They’ve around forever.

    you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villian!

    I like my Jones+ for Thad. That's all the room they need.

    It would be lovely to see him have a career year, but we have had been hearing that for quite some time. I think that at this point, I fall squarely in the "show me" category. If he does not improve massively, he is not worth more than JA, simple as that.

    We're definitely going to get a good player! How do I know? I've got a pattern.

    Whenever we get a new player, I youtube them, watch the highlights, get overly excited about the new player, then cement my feelings by liking positive posts about the player on s2.

    It's obviously some sort of psychological addiction - I'll just call it BlazerMania!

    I agree. Nurk isn't that old, and he hasn't played BBall as long as other's his age. He's still learning, and has potential to add to his game & get better. Dame has added something every year. There were many in here 4 years ago said Dame is what he is, and won't ever get better. Calling him a Monta Ellis type.

    I'm also anticipating a DJ trade today, either to DET or CHI to help facilitate moves from those teams.

    Link?

    I remember people calling CJ a Monta type player. Never saw someone call Dame that.
