It seems the tide may finally be turning on the Nico Harrison era of Dallas Mavericks basketball. After months of outrage, protests, billboards, chants, and awkward public encounters with the Mavericks GM, it seems the owner of the Dallas Mavericks has finally had enough.

Let’s play a game of fill in the blank. “Don’t overreact. The season is still young. The Dallas Mavericks have only played (insert your number here) games so far—so there is still time to turn things around.” What is your number? Is it 5, 15, 30? I have always believed that by the time an […]

The Washington Wizards couldn’t complete a season sweep of the Dallas Mavericks, but last night’s loss was back to the competitive, feisty, entertaining brand of basketball they played for the first couple weeks of the 2025-26 season.

While there were a lot of unfair criticisms lobbied his way, one of the more fair — and persistent — critiques of Luka Dončić has been his defense. Throughout his career, Luka’s defense has come under fire time and time again. While there is no expectation of him being a top defender given his offensive […]

Holy cow the Dallas Mavericks are 2-7! Their worst start to a season since the 2018-19 season! Earlier this week we ran a two question poll which asked two direct questions. The first was centered around All-Star guard Kyrie Irving and whether Dallas fans thought he’d be back soon. This one was overwhelming in that […]

The Dallas Mavericks (2-7) put on their most putrid, pitiful, pathetic performance in Friday’s 118-104 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies (4-6) to open up NBA Cup play at the Fedex Forum. The defense was listless and the offense was hopeless in a stunning display of cowardly ineptitude for the team’s fourth straight loss. To call […]

They say it is always darkest before the dawn, but no one tells you how dark it can get. Or how long the dark will last. Fitting that the darkness for the Dallas Mavericks hits as we entered daylight savings time, turned our clocks back, and settle into the darker days. If you’ve been watching […]

The Dallas Mavericks are 2-7 and currently sit at 15th place in the Western Conference. There are 15 teams in the Western Conference. For a team with title aspirations and a luxury tax bill, this start is a disaster of epic proportions. The team has already been ravaged by injuries, which, given the personnel, is […]

Giddey was coming off the worst season of his career, which ended with a very public benching in the postseason. When the ball wasn’t in his hands, he looked completely lost, so much so that the Dallas Mavericks considered him a non-factor when looming behind the three-point line. To be sure, fans and analysts alike were not co...
