Their hanging right there with a good team on the road tho

Pacers are good but not that good.

Plus D-Will is guaranteed to miss about 15 or so games. And Dirk is clearly a step slower. I just don't see them being able to grind out games like they're doing now on a nightly basis. They'll be food for the Warriors, Spurs, Clippers, Rockets, and the rest of the teams chasing the playoffs.

Brown will end up playing Simmons at the 3.


Also, the biggest mistake of Hinkie's career was passing on Kristaps for Okafor, the frontcourt of Porzingis and Embiid would have been god mode.


Kristraps people wouldn't meet with the 76ers.

Honestly my biggest problem with Hinkie is not finding Devin Booker.

but yeah that would have been crazy.

has a franchise done less for their star player than the NO for Anthony Davis.

no way that nikka stays there.

He recently signed that albatross contract. He's a fixture. But, you're right. The Pelicans front office is incompetent as hell.

Yeah, but Mavs aren't going to be able to keep up with faster paced teams like they are tonight on a nightly basis.

Dirk will be retiring a Mav breh. He isn't that type of player to just up and leave to join a "contender".. Cuban aint dealing him nowhere anyways.
