You realize the Mavs are playing down 2 starters plus rotational players, right? They were down 22 and battled back to actually have a 1 point lead with 5 minutes left in the game.

Really???!! I thought both Kyrie and Lively were playing the whole time!!!! :rolleyes:

Do you realize you always have an excuse whenever they lose? Read what I said again. IF they kept up the defensive effort they could have won, but it didn’t happen for the millionth time with or without Lively in there. I see no lies with what I said
 
Clips have won 9 in a row. If them dudes can stay healthy, in the words of Doris Burp, “they’re gonna be a PRAWBLEM!”
 
Not sure I've ever seen an athlete go from such extreme confidence swings as early Celtics career Derrick White, to the recent version of him

The former played like the smallest guy on the court at all times. The latter plays like he's got the biggest dick in the arena

Same guy, just the difference is confidence. It's fuckin nuts.

You expect unrealistic shit man, you ALWAYS do. The Mavs are playing a team with 4 or 5 future hall of famers that are on an 8 game win streak and they go up by 22. By the 4th qtr. when the Mavs took a 1 point lead with 5 minutes left in the game they were exhausted and undermanned. The entire way they overcame the 22 point deficit was defensive stops until the final 5 minutes of the game when they ran out of gas but you do you man, keep rockin that Mavs AV.
 
Westbrick isnt what he was. That's not fair to just lump him as future HOF because he's a vet min role player these days.

With that said, its also impossible to defend the clippers.

I’m the unrealistic one? Lmao. I expect them to beat the shitty or average teams and lose to the top teams which they have done the entire season. How the hell are my expectations wrong?

Everything I have said since the preseason continues to be proven true, while you continously make excuses for them after every single loss. It’s funny I am the one who brought up injuries possibly occurring and hurting their record and now you are using it as an excuse every game they lose lmao.

Keep telling us how good this roster is when they can’t beat a top team (still haven’t btw and we are nearing the halfway point of the season), guys you said would be great like OMax and Holmes were either sent down to the G-League or can’t even sniff playing time even with the injuries of others, etc.

I also EXPECTED them to end up at the 5-8 seed and was laughed at (it’s just an opinion too lol). Would you like to tell me where they are at the moment? Yeah thought so. So again, what have I said that is unrealistic? Seems like I’m the only fan in here that actually knows about this team and not overrating them.

You are wrong because the Flerps are a loaded team that have now won 9 consecutive games. The Mavericks are playing without their Center as well as second best player in Kyrie Irving as well as rotational players like Green and Kleber. Its a depleted roster. The fact they even overcame a 22 point deficit was a miracle. You FAIL to understand that the reason they lost last night was they ran out of gas after going down 22 in the first half, by the time they took the lead in the 4th with 5 minutes to go they were GASSED and playing without the best 4th Qtr. scorer in the league. Like I said, you do you though. You always do.

Quote where I said expected them to win this game lmao. Just because I had hope they could complete a comeback when taking a lead in the 4th doesn’t mean I expected them to win from the start. lol at saying I failed at understanding from the guy consistently being proven to look foolish when trying to argue with me. AGAIN, I am the one who brought up injuries to you previously because you made an idiotic statement about how easily they can win games this season when they were only 6-2. Try again.

Also Love how you ignore every other point I made because you know I’m right lmao. I will continue to do me and post the actual truth about the team instead of constantly making excuses for losing (you did it 3 times now for this one game alone) and overhyping them.
 
For reference. I also didn’t get a response for this so i assume you had nothing intelligent to respond with like usual.

They won 38 games last year breh, you can't easily think they are going to be better this year after a 6-2 start?

You continously make it so easy to counter any of your points lmao. I’ve been right every step of the way so far this season.

The answer is no, I don’t easily think they can do that. It’s a long season and Injuries could happen, they haven’t beaten any good team in 8 games so far and to further prove my point….






They started 5-3 in their first 8 games last season and won only 38 games. So saying they will easily surpass that number is not guaranteed.

Oh now you don’t want to argue when the facts are all out on the table, you are asked to prove something and the quotes are shown. Remember you replied to me first with an argument lol.

I will continue to rock the AV as a realistic fan and not one that only blows the team. Try again next time <45>

They aren't out on the table. I tried to point out the reality of that game which you still refuse to accept. The Mavs are playing with a crippled team, against the hottest team in the NBA and ran out of gas down the stretch and you had to derp in again with your dumbass arguments about getting stops in the 4th. The Mavs got plenty of stops until the final 5 minutes when they were obviously exhausted.

Says he doesn’t want to argue after starting the argument, then argues again with meaningless points. Yiiiikes make up your mind. Facts are out buddy, in the multiple points I have made that you continue to ignore.

Excuse galore and 4th time you brought it up with this game lmao. Calling me a dumbass and not understanding what the word IF means is hilarious. Read my statement again if you can’t comprehend what it meant. I never said they didn’t get tired nor should have won this game before they had the lead. I had hoped that they might have won after getting so many stops but they were a revolving door on defense like in so many clutch stretches already this season which led to my correct observation.

You are trying to argue about nothing in particular really. Sue me for having hope that they could continue to play decent in the last 5 minutes. But in the end, hope and expectations are different things. I still didn’t have a lot of faith they could close it out. /your argument

Hey at least it isn’t last season where the practice squad plays because of load management. Lebron is out for today?
