@FlaggMavs Who cares about scoring in the end. It’s all about which player is delivering championships. That’s all that truly matters in the end.

Luka Doncic is light years ahead of SGA offensively. SGA can score. Luka scores at a higher clip while being a better passer and playmaker

NBA writer Zach Lowe on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: “This is Michael Jordan but in this era. That’s how good he is on offense.”
English
@KirkSeriousFace @joinoffside The Mavs are doing exactly what they are supposed to be doing right now — losing! It’s all about that draft lottery pick. Flagg may be a little tired at this point, but it’s certainly not harming his development. He’s already exceeded expectations.
English
The #dallasmavericks are an unwatchable mess and it’s getting to be too much even for me. Is playing #cooperflagg in games like this even helpful to his development? Or harmful? @joinoffside
English
@MavsFilmRoom It’s painful still, no doubt. But thank goodness there are teams far better than the Lakers. I detached myself from Luka so that I could continue to be a Mavs fan. Flagg is our future. We’ll be fine.
English
My thoughts on Mark Cuban’s comments about Jason Kidd’s involvement in the Luka Dončić trade.
At the end of the day, it sucks for Mavs fans who now have such negative feelings for a key figure in Mavs history.
English
@FlaggMavs Haha. Not happening. Relax. It’s just the Regular Season Lakers and the James Harden Special by Doncic right now. That’s all it is.
English
The Los Angeles Lakers are going to win an NBA championship this season. Despite not building a good NBA roster.
Luka Doncic, Reaves, and LeBron will just be that good when it counts.
Pin it.

@Mavs_FFL Most of us have always felt that Kidd and Finley both signed off on that trade. I’m actually surprised that Kidd has avoided this topic for so long. He should have been under massive fire for that trade.
English
Kidd on the accusations that he was in on the Luka trade:
“When are we going to move on? We have to move forward. We're focused on the present and the future and we've got an incredible opportunity to build.”

@NorthShoreNine Is this game number 164 from the 2025 season? Same problems exist from last season.
English
@JMackey_PGH Unfortunately, this team just doesn’t have enough talented hitters. For them to win they need the starters to be almost perfect in every outing. I personally think thy are headed to another losing season.
English
FINAL: Mets 4, Pirates 2 (11 inn.)
Luis Robert Jr. 3-run homer does it
Keller: 6 IP, 3 H, 3 K, 77-49
Mangum 2H, 2B … Gonzales 2H, RBI
Tough for Hunter Barco, who takes the loss
PIT now 0-2
English
@jmarshfof @ChrisMuellerPGH Dubas was on quite an impressive role until the Kulak trade. Right now that trade doesn’t look so good.
English
This Letang/Girard pairing is not going to turn into a functionally useful pairing unless you have a fair godmother sitting around that can turn this thing into a mustang until midnight.
I do not know what is the driver behind continuing to put them out there.
English
@MarkMaddenX As with a lot of teams, you only go as far your starting pitching. And for Pittsburgh it’s everything! We’ll see how things go going forward.
English
It’s only 1 of 162.
Not worried one iota about Skenes, for example.
But the Pirates will be a bad fielding team.
We saw that today.
It won’t get better.
You got a 1B in RF, a RF in LF, a 3B at SS, a 2B at 3B& Cruz can’t play anywhere.
English
@MarkMaddenX Murashov would do no better. His save percentage has been bad over his past 7 games. I’m not even sold he’s going to be the Pens future goalie. There are no Matt Murray’s coming to save the Penguins this time.
English
This time of the season…
How many NHL teams still have a legit card they can play like Murashov?
English
@MarkMaddenX A fun season that most didn’t expect to see. But the flaws are being exposed now. Goaltending isn’t good enough and those overtime/shootout losses are looming large now. This team may not make the playoffs. And that would be disappointing after all we have seen.
English
It’s not bad goaltending, per se. But the goaltending never robs, never steals. Never.
English
@NorthShoreNine Absolutely the right decision. But the left side of the infield is terrible. This will be a major weakness for this team early on. They should have addressed the 3B issue already, and now you have a SS issue.
English
@RichieWalsh SS early on will be a weakness for the Pirates. But the Pirates made the right decision. If anything, the concern is that the Pirates will have the worst left infield in baseball. They should have addressed this by now.
English
@PaulZeise A good decision by the Pirates. He may have hit home runs in spring training, but he didn’t hit very well overall. And getting him some reps at AAA will help with his development.
English
I’m sure this will be well received…..
Pittsburgh Pirates@Pirates
ROSTER MOVE: We have reassigned INF Konnor Griffin to minor league camp. There are now 34 players remaining in Major League camp.
English
@Lillicotch @MarkMaddenX No question. This was a rebuild year and no one really thought we’d have a chance at the playoffs. Murashov is the future, and there’s excitement about that. Regardless of how the season ends, this season has been a pleasant surprise.
English
@jbailey69 @MarkMaddenX To be honest, no one expected a cup this season, not even making the playoffs. The future is staying in WBS barring injury.
Who knows? Matt Murray did it
English
To repeat…MAKE A ***KING SAVE. 5 goals on 15 shots = Jarry-esque.
English
@MarkMaddenX Those losses in overtime and not winning those shootouts, are really coming around to hurt this team. If they miss the playoffs, that’ll be the reason why.
English
Another absolute horse***t turnover winds up in the net. WTF? You wanna make the playoffs or not? Also…MAKE A ***KING SAVE. 4 goals on 13 shots = unacceptable.
English
@KDPomp The Penguins aren’t true contenders with their goalie tandem. That’s just the truth of things. But they should at least make the playoffs this season, and we all should be thrilled about that.
English
@TejedaBrad Brad, I really appreciate the work that you do. Big fan!
English
The fact we were able to RETAIN the RB AND CB room is HUGE‼️
English
@bobbykaralla All good. No more pain in my eyes. Flagg is all that matters now. Luka is on a mediocre Lakers to begin with. They are not competing for anything this season and likely the seasons to come. That alone helps the healing process.
English
Luka closed out this game with some scoring and then drawing a charge. Mavs fans won't soon forget the motto.
