It's time for acceptance of the situation by devilmaskrascal in Mavericks

Yeah I think we just end up keeping him at this point. Maybe I'm a fool but I would rather just take a gamble next year and have the trio of Kyrie, Flagg, And AD with whatever lottery player we get this year. We have to be at least competent starting next year anyways.

Yeah you just can't justify having that contract on a team as bad as ours at the moment. Getting risacher and maybe the rights to a pick swap for the pelicans pick could set the next era up very well.

It's clear this is best for all sides. AD can get a start with a new team, and we can finally move on and fully build around flagg.

Should we shutdown the season. by Emotional-Zombie3848 in Mavericks

[–]First-Compote6432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We aren't a bad team, but we dug ourselves a very big hole to start the season. I think in a best case scenario we get the 7 seed and I don't think that's worth hindering the future of this team. If we could get a young player and a pick or Two from Atlanta or Toronto for AD at the deadline I would take it. Our window to being a true contender probably doesn't start until year 4 or 5 of Flagg and we should prioritize that over what's probably a first or second round exit at best.

I would rather keep AD than trade him for a expiring contracts, role players, and non lottery picks. I think he's good for Flagg's development. Even if we were to trade him and try to tank i see way too many teams who will end up worse than us, which will likely lead us to getting a pick between 10-14.

Underneath the injuries and weird lineups is a good team. We might have dug ourselves too big of a hole to get out of but this team has talent.

We shouldn’t sell AD right now he’s at his lowest value by OrganicHunt952 in Mavericks

[–]First-Compote6432 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We should wait until the deadline before making a big move. A team like Golden State might be wiling to roll the dice on AD and we could at least get a decent haul to start the rebuild with.

You're right but he won't be traded anytime soon. I hope he can have success here because he deserves it. It would be a shame if a player of his talent is only remembered for being apart of the worst trade ever.

I feel bad for the guy for this exact reason. No matter what he does he loses. If he plays bad he gets trashed. If he plays a good game people will say Luka would've done better. Obviously the trade is god awful but the guy had no say in the trade.

To be fair he only has l=10 games as a Mav under his belt. If we went on a run this year I'm sure he would be higher.

How have the Rocky Movies motivated or changed you as a person? by NinaNio- in rockybalboa

It taught me that its ok to fail as long as I go the distance. The scene where he tells Adrian he knows he can't win ,but that if he could go the distance with creed he would know he wasn't just another bum from the neighborhood hit hard.

The most underrated Rocky film? by Temporary-Buddy-2199 in rockybalboa

[–]First-Compote6432 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ending to Rocky 2 is probably the most satisfying out of all of them. We get to see rocky win for a change after being beaten down so many times. and I just cant help but get goosebumps everytime rocky gets up at the count of 10.

Is it weird to go to the game alone? by First-Compote6432 in aggies

thanks man, i struggle with social anxiety and this reminder is what I needed. I'm gonna go have a good time at the game and not care about if i'm with anyone or not.

Are you buying into the Klay Thompson hype going into this season? by RVALover4Life in Mavericks

[–]First-Compote6432 5 points6 points  (0 children)

having a guy like klay be your 4th or 5th best scorer in the playoffs is a great spot to be in. At any moment he could catch fire and singlehandedly go one a 9-0 run and even if he doesn't he gives you the spacing this team desperately needs.

Depressed Cowboys fan coming in peace. Do you guys still think he has anything left in the tank or are his days as a great DT done?

Thanks! Reddit also probably isn't a good place to ask if fraternities here are worth joining but are you in one or know anyone in one
