the concept of a 7 year pro taking the "leap" to be as good as a rookie
Ryan Lucas@RyanLucas_LA
Dave with ESPN made it sound a lot (on ESPN LA radio) like after retaining Austin and figuring out Lebron, the next in line to bring back as a priority is ....Jaxson Hayes. Cited his Slovenian national team connection and improved play (how he outplayed atyon most of the season and game 4 v okc, specifically) Im not saying its the move, but i think theres people in that building that believe after a couple years as back up, Hayes can take a "Derrick Lively type of leap" as the starter and they just need to get a legit back up in free agency...

The league absolutely should not bless them again but a Darryn and Flagg pairing could make a generation fall in love with the sport

@ChrisBakerNBA @GrantAfseth Advanced stats like Win share means you HAVE to win to have a higher stat. The Mavs are not winning. They dont consider the context of a team that wants to lose games and maximize lottery odds for the future.
You sound silly discrediting either player in these conversations.

Kon Kneuppel leading every single advanced stat
Kon Kneuppel +3.9 on-off to Coopers 0.0
Kon 128.7 PSA
Coop 110.5 PSA
Kon is 3rd in the Entire NBA in points per shot attempt amongst players to play 2000 minutes.
Identical assist to usage rates.
Identical rebound rates despite Kon being 5 inches shorter.
EPM, BPM, Win shares, plus-minus all Kon>
Hopefully that makes sense

Well, I'm not a "fan" of the Mavericks or any team. I watch the team every Mavs game, though, and your claim that this franchise made the 2024 finals and had 20 games of Anthony Davis this season as your basis is probably one of the worst forms of basketball analysis I've read in a long time.
If we want to talk about illiteracy, you must be context-illiterate if you weigh both circumstances equally for each player. Again, one team is quite literally rebuilding and needing to maximize lottery odds. One team has zero reason to do that. That's not a hard concept to grasp, Chris.
Regardless, you're so biased that you said that Brandon Williams having an illness and being listed as doubtful on the injury report means the Mavs are trying to pad Cooper Flagg's stats. Which...
Chris Baker@ChrisBakerNBA
Mavericks fans twisting themselves into a pretzel with 20 different hypotheticals meanwhile every single data point is on Kons side. Just sad to see people be this data illiterate in 2026.

look at how beautiful this is
pictures like this really make me feel we should bomb each other and charge thousands of dollars for life saving medication and sit in our car all day and work endless hours to eat jalapeño poppers and pay rent to Blackstone

We see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere. That's us, together, watching as our astronauts make their journey to the Moon.

I created a chart to show how the top freshman guards stack up offensively against each other. Here are their shooting percentages for different shot types:

how many jobs are getting lost in a couple months?

An anonymous GM has AJ Dybantsa ranked No. 1, Caleb Wilson No. 2, and Darius Acuff Jr. No. 3 on his draft board, per @MarcJSpears “Real quick on Acuff: I had one GM tell me today he’s moved into the top three. Peterson might be going back down a little bit. He saw AJ as number one, Wilson two." (h/t @OmerOsman200 / @TheNBABase )

@allenanalysis @grok give us the context to said clip and how OP is overreacting

A reporter asked JD Vance what he advised Trump before launching the Iran war.
His answer:
“I don’t want to go to prison.”
That is a direct quote from the Vice President of the United States.
Not “it’s classified.”
Not “national security prevents me from answering.”
“I don’t want to go to prison.”
The man one heartbeat from the presidency just told the American press that the reason he won’t answer questions about a war that has killed 14 Americans — including Major Alex Klinner whose twins are 7 months old — is personal legal self-preservation.
He campaigned against endless foreign wars.
He is now in the Situation Room approving one.
And his reason for silence is prison avoidance.
The American people funded this war.
American families are burying their children.
The Pentagon won’t release a casualty count.
The Baghdad embassy just told Americans to flee.
JD Vance doesn’t want to go to prison.

@BiasedSlightly Who has a better Christmas Day game, Flagg or Doncic?
Could eat crow with a Doncic 60 bomb but let me take the rook!

@BiasedSlightly I saw Kelly Olynyk guy fall to his knees in the Walmart parking lot when he found out he got traded to the Wizards.
