    God I love Doncic till this day I will never understand how he doesn’t get his shots blocked.

    The way he plays is so slow and methodical I would have sworn the athleticism of the NBA would have been way to much for him…

    The best I can say about him is that he has motor function and all his limbs.

    looks like a total mismatch. Sometimes, that means a come back is on the way.

    yeah, I know...but I still can't root for Blazer losses during a game

    Chauncey Billups. Same old, same old. Go with the guys he "trusts". No matter how small or how sucky they are.

    Mavs have Marquese Chriss. Moses Brown and Boban all on the bench.

    We could use any one of them.

    Been saying this for awhile too. The guy stays injured. He’s always grimacing and overreacting on plays he falls too. He reminds me of AD, soft

    I'm wondering who else is on the bench that you want Billups to put in?

    I hate to butt heads with the CJ2 bashers but Elleby is an NBA player.

    This shows Elleby and Watford could have been in the starting lineup like some suggested. But that would have left out one of our small guards. And Snell! Ant or Norman would've been pissed and Chauncey don't want that.

    He's playing more like an actual NBA player recently. For quite some time, he was not. Things change, so can opinions.

    Norman Powell replaces Nassir Little and the defense goes down the toilet.

    Yes, even I doubted him at one time; I thought he had lost his confidence. I've got a good guess as to who helped him find it again.
