Jalen Brunson probably had two words to say at some point after his New York Knicks got past Cleveland in their first-round playoff series. “Immaculate vibes.” We heard that a time or two from the former Maverick last spring when he and Luka Dončić were leading a fun run to the Western Conference finals. And […]
We had several inquiries/responses to our mavs.com story last week about players who set themselves up for better years in 2023-24. It got us thinking here at the mailbag about which Mavericks would be the choices if we had a team-wide honor roll. Then we thought about it more and wondered if a team that […]
Going into this season, Josh Green had an inkling his minutes would increase and he would be counted on to be a much more productive player. So, he prepared himself accordingly. Instead of playing on the Dallas Mavericks’ summer league team in Las Vegas last summer, Green was in Sin City working out with his […]
The Dallas Mavericks community relations team and Mavs Foundation had an upbeat celebration at Union Gospel Mission’s Center of Hope on Tuesday afternoon to unveil a brand new Ford van that will serve local families. Union Gospel Mission (UGM Dallas) was a 2021-22 Mavs Foundation Grant Recipient, and their request was to receive a new van […]
They say you should never make any big decision or deep analysis when you are emotional. So now that we are roughly 10 days removed from the end of the Mavericks’ disappointing season, it’s OK to take stock of what happened and why. But mostly, it’s better to look ahead, not back. The 38-44 season […]
The NBA playoffs are here and what’s a Mavericks’ fan to do? The Mavs, you may have heard, are not involved in the postseason. So we don’t have a dog in this playoff fight. To be honest, we don’t even have a team we can root against, simply because for the first time since the […]
When asked earlier this week what type of progress multi-talented Dallas Mavericks rookie guard Jaden Hardy made this season, the eyes of general manager Nico Harrison lit up. “Oh my goodness!,” Harrison said. “Amazing. Literally, month-to-month you saw the guy progress. “At the beginning of the month he learned how to be a pro. The […]
Dallas Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison said there was a distinct difference between last year when they traded center/power forward Kristaps Porzingis as opposed to this season when they traded for guard Kyrie Irving. The Mavs were 32-23 when they traded Porzingis and a second-round pick to the Washington Wizards on Feb. 10, 2022, for […]
As he addressed the state of the Mavericks Tuesday afternoon, general manager Nico Harrison mapped out a clear itinerary for burying the disappointing 2022-23 season and driving forward to better times ahead. The GM will be going into his third season as head of the basketball organization, and he doesn’t intend on anything close to […]
Luka Dončić doesn’t like what happened this season, just as none of the Mavericks do. He’s a proud warrior and missing the playoffs doesn’t sit well with his competitive DNA. At times like this, he should consult with perhaps the only other person in Dallas who can relate to what the new face of the […]
