The only thing I see is prior to the All Star break but is that 2/4 or is that 2/13?

Has there been any news?

Just realized that Dwight Powell has 1,667 FTA per FGA, which is almost 3x as much as the number 2. Who knew we have a free throw merchant in our midst lol. Obviously I know that this is a statistical anomaly that comes from his very low total field goal attempts, just thought it's funny. Also: 3 of the top 7 in this category are mavs players (DP, Omax and the landlord)

I know back in dirks day a 50 win season would get you a 5-7 seed some years with some .500 teams missing the playoffs. I just looked at the current standings and there are teams in the west with .500 records not even in the play-in?! that's crazy.

Luka has been injured for a while that’s understandable. But no Kyrie is just robbery. Will be boycotting this years all-star. Allstar games in general has been declining over the years.

As if the 30 game gap between Klay and Hield weren't enough to put into perspective just how far ahead of the pack Klay is in this stat, here are the top 20 players and their number of games:

1. Klay Thompson - 91
2. Buddy Hield - 61
3. CJ McCollum - 54
4. Nikola Vucevic - 52
5. Chuck Person - 44
6. Jrue Holiday - 42
7. Gary Payton - 41
8. Michael Finley - 41
9. JR Smith - 37
10. Stephen Curry - 37
11. Dell Curry - 36
12. Mookie Blaylock - 36
13. Shawn Marion - 36
14. Joe Johnson - 32
15. Malik Beasley - 32
16. Ray Allen - 32
17. Paul George - 31
18. Antoine Walker - 30
19. Jason Terry - 30
20. Jordan Clarkson - 28

Breaking down his 91 games further:

• Games with 40-49 pts and 0 FTAs: 3
• Games with 30-39 pts and 0 FTAs: 11

Even cooler/crazier, particularly given all of the "he's washed" rhetoric post-injuries, 27 of the 91 games have occurred since his return from injury with 10 of those 27 occurring in the last year or so (13 months to be exact). Further, the 27 games that have occurred since his return from injury include 5 of the above-mentioned 14 games wherein he scored over 30 pts with 0 FTAs:

• Feb. 6, 2023 vs. OKC - 42 pts
• Mar. 12, 2022 vs. Bucks - 38 pts
• Mar. 25, 2022 vs. Hawks - 37 pts
• Apr. 2, 2022 vs. Jazz - 36
• Feb. 8, 2023 vs. Blazers - 31

Just absurd 😂

It wasn’t too long ago when I seen a few of you guys on here suggesting we trade Gafford and Maxi in a package of a POA defender or whatever back up power forward you guys wanted. Im honestly glad this has happened because it looks like he keeps tabs and it has definitely lit a fire under him. Without Gafford on our team im sure we would be under .500 by now. His presence in the paint is felt, on the offensive and defensive boards. I’m know once Luka gets back it’ll only get easier from there.

CONTINUE COLLECTING RENT LANDLORD!

The surest sign of all though that he's finally hit his groove? He averaged 43.8% on tightly contested 3s in December and 50% on tightly contested 3s in January.

His "without Luka" 3P% is now up to 37.1% and his season average from 3 is now 39.6%.

"Jake Fischer of Marc Stein's Stein Line and Jovan Buha of The Athletic, have reported picking up on chatter — not necessarily from the Pacers' front office but from others in the industry — suggesting the Pacers might not be willing to pay Turner the money he's expected to seek and might be willing to move him at the Feb. 6 trade deadline as it's their last chance to get something for him before he hits unrestricted free agency June 30."

Carlisle might still has a soft spot for Maxi, and Gafford gets them a legit starting center for half the cost of Turner this season and next. Might the mavs finally be able to bring home the DFW kid and land their true stretch-5?

Maxi+Gafford for Turner works. We use Maxi's contract to swap Gafford for Turner. Obviously the mavs have the big question about whether to pay him also, but with Lively on the books for just $5m for 3 more years, we can afford to overpay for his backcourt mate imo.

What do y'all think? Crazy?

Wondering if somebody would be able to show me some of Omaxs current defensive advanced stats and a player or two with similar numbers. I’m bored before the trade deadline and want to see if he has trajectory to become a serviceable and playable PF

I'm not sure exactly when it happened (I eventually stopped checking every day) but I feel like it's a relatively recent change. I believe it was on DirecTV proper but not on their streaming product for a while. Anyways, this is just a PSA for those who may not have noticed. I was able to cancel my MavsTV subscription so that's nice.

After the first quarter of the wizards game, they finally made a business decision and started guarding Klay like their life depended on it. It was already a blowout but the floor opened up so much that we were attacking at will getting to the bucket and Klay was dishing out some assist too because of how tightly they were playing him.

This is the formula, Klay has so much gravity that it’ll open up the floor for everyone. Once Luka comes back it’s going to be insane.

Boxscore

A head-to-head comparison between PJ Washington and Kyle Kuzma tonight:

PJ Washington (Mavericks):

• PTS: 19
• REB: 9
• FG: 9/14 (64.3%)
• +/-: +23

Kyle Kuzma (Wizards):

• PTS: 7
• REB: 6
• FG: 3/11 (27.3%)
• +/-: -31

Dallas originally explored trading for Kuzma, but the deal didn’t materialize. Instead, the Mavericks landed PJ Washington and Daniel Gafford in a separate trade.

The decision seems to be paying off, as Washington shined in tonight’s win for Dallas, while Kuzma struggled in Washington’s loss.
