@Fullcourtpass @Krisplashed He knows the Knicks bout to get blown up Podcast boys coming to an end

Mikal Bridges was holding back tears after the Knicks game 3 loss to the Hawks, per @Krisplashed (nydailynews.com/2026/04/24/kni…)

@LegionHoops @billoram @TheNBABase I am open to nikola jokic joining the mavericks

The Blazers are “ready” to pursue trading for Giannis if he’s open to signing with them long term, per @billoram. Dame, Jrue Holiday, and Giannis 🤯 (h/t @TheNBABase)

I really hope the Knicks lose round 1 so they can do even more stupid stuff in free agency/trades Desperate teams make stupid decisions

I would have really liked a Kuminga swap for AD and ultimately I think the Mavs would have done it as well I think the financials were too hard too make it work.

@mandomaverick From an Achilles tear in 10 months KD didn’t lose a step either at age 34 .? I think primes will be extended as we go forward I expect stars to play meaningful basketball up to age 35 probably.

@mandomaverick Disagree, Almost all players are playing longer and extending prime, seems like every superstar has held or maintained a extremely high level of play into early 30s Bron, KD, curry, AD, Kawhi James Harden, Jimmy, Giannis Paired with modern medicine We just saw Tatum come back

peak nba prime now is 23-29 not 26-32 anymore miles since kid + game becomes faster and more physical

@MavsHighlights I want Isaiah from duke or maleek from Arkansas at pick 30

how would you feel about this on Draft Night?

@CooperFMuse Drop step dunk on Dillon brooks It was beautiful

What was your favorite Cooper Flagg moment from this season:

@BiasedHouston @517to214 Where does Houston go from here ? Seriously I can’t imagine the value anywhere but Amen Thompson everyone else tanked their value I wouldn’t give up a 20 dollar bill for sengun rn Milwaukee looking at Houston ready to take the whole house down.

3 years of tanking, 4 top-4 picks and we can’t beat Marcus Smart and Luke Kennard. Flatout pathetic.

@MavsHighlights Portland is looking goofy recently First time playing meaningful basketball in a long time and their owner decided to be cheap

It's me, being a little relieved that there is a more embarrassing ownership narrative in NBA circles than the one for the team I love

Patrick dumont is a lot of things, But he isn’t cheap.. to my knowledge This sucks if your a blazers fan

@517to214 Or timberwolves if they lose the series, For kyrie and the mavericks I think it’s best for both sides But I would love it if he stays

I love Kyrie but the Pistons and Rockets might be talked into doing something stupid for him

I always believed scoot

@MavsFilmRoom I would take cam tho lol, Would be selfishly happy if we move up to 4th and take Caleb and we can move past all the wrong choice or who was the better player nonsense He is my favorite player in the draft but long term fit with coop is shaky they both can’t shoot fr

@MavsFilmRoom I Think cam boozer is a better fit and better player, his shooting and scoring is much needed on this team. But I want Caleb just for the sole reason of running a front court of cooper Caleb lively the defense and rim protection would be crazy.

Better prospect for the Dallas Mavericks

@LockedOnMavs I like DP and Caleb Wilson the most out of the top 4

Caleb Wilson should be the #2 option for the Mavs in the 2026 NBA Draft

@517to214 If acuff measures 6”3 he goes 5 and it’s a lock

If Wagler tests poorly at the combine I don't think he's going 5 and if Acuff isn't at least 6'1 barefoot then I'm not sure he is either. When we talking top 7ish picks it's about being able to explain why the kid didn't work out if he doesn't and keeping your job.

I’m happy with brown acuff Wagler Philon One of them have to be available at 8/9 I hope.

@N88TRAORE @NickVanExit Agreed

@NickVanExit 8-9 are literally both fine spots, even 10 wouldn’t be the end of the world

Dallas Mavericks Fans' Chances to be happy on May 10th 6.7% -- EXSTATIC, RIGGED IT AGAIN!? 7.0% -- HERE WE GO, SILVER KNEW 7.4% -- THE LEAGUE ISNT READY 7.8% -- THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT 32.9% -- Man... 31.1% -- Oh hell... 6.6% -- It's over... 0.4% -- What is the meaning of life?

@MavsHighlights I worry about hawks and Milwaukee I really like aday to to the warriors tho

@CookCourtside Thunder aren't taking Philon, neither are the Dubs...

Mavs trade their 8th pick to OKC for the 12th and 16th... Are you happy w Philon & Carr?
