Dallas Maverick’s

[Bostongambler]

They have reached a new low. They are really really bad right now.

The Kyrie effect

[Headsterx]

They lose to a team that even Jordan doesn't want to own anymore.

I had Dallas winning by 5. Was on the Dog there, but not the moneyline.

This is huge settlement day this week. There are many things at stake across multiple sports. There has been so much betting this week that so many different groups have to settle with the give and take of the markets.

Not to mention, there are huge open parlays that need to get busted today.

It's my belief the early NBA upset double digit upset helps to accomplish that goal.

I also know that there are some who really cleaned up this week and will again today.

Thinking about spitting my NBA forecasts when the madness is over, it could be a fun posting topic.

Thanks KVB, very insightful. I just wished I read this before betting on Lakers -3.5 as they're getting killed by the Bulls. Have to clean up those existing parlays.

I have Lakers winning that one by 6 but didn't bet the game.

NBA has crazy point swings, you just never fukkin know.

[Headsterx]

Will the downfall continue tonight for Dallas v. the lowly Indiana +7.5?

[stevenash]

I paid up for Luka at DK's single entry DFS contest at PG.
Go Mavs.

Randle and Luka do look like the plays tonight, we'll see.

Yeah, Luka should have a big night but it won't help Mavs as the poisonous toxic snake Kyrie will even more damage.

[Nate rasta]

I can't believe Dallas might miss out on the playoffs

[Nate rasta]

Dallas is done. Can't see them making the playoffs after tonight and Oklahoma city won

[JIBBBY]

Kyrie curse in full effect. Maybe he should date a Kardashian to see what happens? Double the curses to break them both maybe?

[Kermit]

I think that it is safe to say that the Kyrie experiment isn't working. They lost 14 times in 20 games since Kyrie got there.

[jtoler]

lol kyrie the scapegoat

[IBetYou]

lol kyrie the scapegoat

lol that's sooo funny... He's played awful. Either he is hurt physically or emotionally (all the talking heads calling him a cancer).

3 games left and Dallas one game back for final spot. OKC plays Warriors in SF (loss) and Grizzlies at home but still tough game. Dallas all three games are at home but Kyrie will play in all three. It will be close and interesting.

he had 40 points tonight what u guys going on about

Before Kyrie, Dallas was a 500 team (30-30).

Dallas record with Kyrie: 7-12

[Headsterx]

Now that the kiddies are done playing, let the grown-ups start playing ball and acting like little kids, whining and complaining. First up, Dallas Mavericks.

and since kyrie arrived dallas record when kyrie plays and luka doesnt is 3-1. dallas record when luka plays and kyrie doesnt is 0-2. and 2 things misleading with trying to take anything away from the records you posted the first being the other players you didnt mention that the mavs had pre-kyrie and that are missing post kyrie. when luka has ball the offense is stagnant as he stands motionless pounding the ball into the ground mercilessly until a few seconds left on shot clock when he either takes a long step back 3, a dribble drive attempt to get closer to basket to shoot or kick giving the receiving player a second or 2 to heave a 3 pt shot. when kyrie has the ball the pace and energy is totally different much more upbeat and luka cant play off ball seems to have to have it, kyrie can play off ball fine. yes time for the grown ups to take the wheel.

And that's misleading because the sample is tiny.

Fair to say, Kyrie has not transformed the team into contenders.

Doncic tells reporters re sitting out: "I'm playing tomorrow. When there's still a chance, I'm going to play"
-That's leadership.

Contrast that with Lillard... "It's not necessarily my decision".

ugh y r u like this. "when there's still a chance I'm going to play". therefore if there wasn't still a chance... guess what. blazers have been mathematically out of the playoffs for a while. also, go watch the numerous players talking on youtube such as steph talking about it not being their decision whether to play or not I think referring to b2b, rest, and passing playing protocols before gametime etc. In a playoff situation when you cant make it anymore and youre paying a guy 200+ mil it would be retarded to let that guy continue to waste time on the court playing for nothing. You already know all of this but like to poke.

Well they hadn't been mathematically eliminated at the time... Good leadership by Doncic. Good to show some bravado!

What Lillard meant by his quote was the team wanted him to sit and he didn't want to play. But double-speak is what he knows. He'll talk about being loyal like Nowitzki one minute then he'll be backtracking it or demanding roster moves. I think now he wants to get traded but doesn't want to ask. Ownership don't want to upset the fanbase by trading him. Funny.

As for players not being in control of when they play... how naive are you?

[mjsuax13]

Kyrie might set a record for franchises buried.

The matchup with the Kings should be a helluva game. Do or die, I would think!

Matchup!? They ain’t making the playoffs. 😂

[stevenash]

Why is that stiff Powell starting at center over Christian Wood?

And man that Mavs bench is next level stinky, that bench is about as deep as a puddle.

[IBetYou]

Matchup!? They ain’t making the playoffs. 

They need one more loss from the Thunder and to win out themselves. Then they're in the play-in. Thunder have lost 8 straight ATS!

[IBetYou]

Wow 6pt favs tonight. That's about 6pts off from where I thought the line would be.

[Git Lo]

Sac probably buries them if not then the pelicans will lol. Luka is a stat padder, no one admits this but all the signs are there

[Bostongambler]

Sac is on a B2B maybe they are not playing everyone

[Booya711]

Mavericks are like a YMCA team that is playing for third place.

Mark Cuban is trash and deserves this shit show of a team. He needs to find another team on shark tank

[Headsterx]

Instant classic thread.

[IBetYou]

Lots of low IQ players on this Mavs team but Mcgee has outlier stupidity... His strategy for defensive rebounding is to go flying under the basket.
