It's not that Doncic needs Kyrie but the Dallas needs a player like Kyrie, or at least a star player like Doncic that could help carry the load. About a big man problem that you are talking, they already got one, and it was Gafford who have been playing impressive basketball ever since he was traded to the Dallas. I think they are very much ready for the playoffs, so let's see how they'll perform this time. I have a feeling that Dallas will end up at least in the top 6.

They are only 3.5 games behind the 4th seeded Clippers, and I guess the top 3 teams in the West might not change anymore unless one of them will have a losing streak in their remaining games.

Aside from that, 6 of their remaining 14 games are against the playoff teams. 4 of those 6 games are against Sacramento (2) and Golden State (2), and I think their games against the Kings will decide if the Mavericks will get at least the 6th spot or not. TBH, their remaining games aren't that difficult because most of their games are against teams that aren't competing anymore for the playoff spot. I agree with what you said that the Mavericks are a playoff-contender team already with the acquisition of Gafford and Washington. It's just they only got them at the 2nd half of the season. If they only got both of them at the start of the regular season, they must be at the higher spot right now. The Clippers are playing pretty awful in their last 5 games winning only 1, and if that continues, that'll give an opportunity for other teams to steal that 4th spot and a possible 1st round homecourt advantage come playoffs.

Anyway, the Mavericks are a fun team to watch especially their lobs.

I just saw this online, and I think this is the most hilarious jersey swaps in NBA history already.

Just don't get too cocky in getting his new contract this has happened to a few NBA stars after getting their max contract they suddenly change and are barely practicing like what happens to Ben Simmons and Jordan Poole after getting their max contract they were truly exposed not having something with the team and a disappointment for them, I think those 2 really fits the bill.


Hopefully, he continues to be an arsenal that you are talking about for the team, especially on their crucial nights, just like what happened in the recent Trail Blazers game and Los Angeles Clippers game where both games were electrifying for Zion Williamson, if this continues their team will surely lift into the playoffs.


That is what I like about Kyrie Irving his dedication to his religion however there are times that he is not performing well but I think his motivation to do something for his religion surely affects his playing and what is he capable of doing, so kudos to him for making it a motivation, while his partnership with Luka Doncic really needs improvement.

From the Kyrie impossible shot to the super dunk of Anthony Edwards. Damn, I love the NBA.
Here's the link.
Antman dunk on Collins link

How many times have we seen this guy do some crazy shit?
He did it before against the Raptors forward Yuta Watanabe on the sideline. He also does this high-flying skill on defense with that winning block recently against the Pacers. Truly amazing. That's a lot of posters that need to be bought if you are a hardcore Antman fan.

Timberwolves won the game against the Jazz and Antman actually made just 5 or 6 points in the first half and then exploded in the 2nd half ending with 32 superb points to help his team claim the win.

Sacramento Kings versus the Memphis Grizzlies also had an entertaining game that ended in overtime with Malik Monk exploding to help the Kings win it.

Look how high he could jump... That could be a big poster if the dunk went in, unfortunately Davis was able to disrupt it and proved that he really is a good shot blocker, but to be able to make a successful dunk against a good shot blocker, that's already a big success. ANT has been so confident this season, not only his game has improve but he had some highlights as well, did this game had already joined the slam dunk competition?

If he did that to Lebron, I believe he could be successful. AD is still not out of his prime, still young and could compete at a high level. One of the best big man in the NBA, posterizing him is almost impossible, unless it wasn't contested.



I think he should joined next all star as the last one has been boring, maybe with the hype he created now, he could bring the fans to be interested in watching the game. I also like Morant to joined, small but not afraid to posterize someone.

It's been almost 2 years since Isaiah Thomas last played in the NBA. Honestly, I'm surprised that he still hasn't given up and is still obsessed with returning to the NBA. Hopefully, he can prove himself in such a short time, and the Suns will sign him to a minimum contract at least until the end of next season.

I don't see it them making a risk because a 10 day contract doesn't cost them must. And they don't make this decision if they are not seeing a potential from him, who knows he will be a big contributor for the team, with his playoffs experience, I'm sure he could help the Suns if his contract will extended.

I saw some players before given a 10day contract that became successful in getting a long term contract.

Most familiar to me is Hassan Whiteside which was reportedly has retired this year.

I like the resiliency of Miami Heat, as long as Bam can play in the playoff, they will be the dark horse team and unpredictable, just like last season and the in the bubble wherein they go into the finals against the Lakers.

For the Lakers and the Warriors, it's a long road for this former champions. Specially the Warriors, there still something that is missing with them. Klay is inconsistent, although they are doing their best to be at least in the play-in. But I do agree that either of this teams are not going into the finals. Time for other teams in the West to shine.

Speaking of jersey swaps, I saw this online which is kind of funny while I'm reading all of them. I just hope that Grady will not really make some jersey swaps with these players because like you said, it would be hilarious.  Well, maybe he can do a jersey swap with either Nasir Little or Trae Young. 


He's capable of dunking with other players. The only thing is that, he has no reliable PG that can throw lobs to him like what CP3 is doing with Blake Griffin at his prime. Well, that's why the LA Clippers was called "Lob City" years ago for that reason.

As for Edwards' dunk, that's a monster dunk coming from him and he's been doing it many times in his whole career, but his reaction when he sees the video of him dunking over Collins is just crazy. Between Edwards' dunk and Jackson-Davis' dunk, I would still pick TJD's dunk over Wembanyama because like what the announcer said, "he put the entire country of France in a basket".
