What a crazy game! We break down the Mavs' win, their crucial 3rd quarter run, and what this means for the series.
The Mavs lost Game 3, which sucks. We talked about some adjustments the Clippers made that helped them win this game. We also talked about what went wrong for the Mavericks and what they need to do in Game 4. (Fair warning: If you’re a Kristaps Porzingis fan, it’s probably best to not listen to this episode. It’s not all Kristaps hate, but I do think that was a key to the loss.)
It's been a while! But how can you not talk about the Mavs right now? We took a break from the pod, but we're back to share our totally biased fan reactions to what the Mavericks are doing to the Clippers right now. We talked about Luka being all kinds of a jerk to the Clippers while putting on a show for the fans. He is KILLING them. We also talked about comments from the Clippers, Clippers fans, and head coach Ty Lue. They are so...
We talked about the Mavericks' loss to the Spurs, why they didn't double-team DeMar DeRozan, if they could have gotten a better shot to end the game, and whether or not Kristaps deserves more trust. He's asked for more shots, specifically in the fourth quarter, but has he earned that right? We break down the numbers to see if Kristaps shows up when his team needs him the most.
Yeah, that game pretty much sucked. We talked about why. We also announced the winners of our Homage.com t-shirt giveaway! Listen to see if you won.
The Dallas Mavericks gutted out a tough win against the Knicks. A lot of things went wrong, but a lot of things went right. We talked about Josh Richardson and Jalen Brunson's key role in the win plus Kristaps' utter trash of a game. Does he only show up in meaningless games? It's a theory we discuss. We then pose the question of whether or not the Mavericks are only one piece away from contending. I know that sounds crazy, but hea...
Luka was ballin' tonight. We talk about this big game and some weird things with Kristaps, as usual. We also talk about the JJ Redick quotes about he didn't want to be traded to Dallas. Should we be worried? We then looked to the upcoming back-to-back and try to guess which one the Mavs' will rest Luka and Kristaps on, plus why we dislike that plan so much. Lots to cover, and a rant. Thanks for listening!
Sydney talked to Pelicans Mason Ginsberg and got the scoop on what JJ Redick is like at this point in his career and if Mavs fans should be worried about his age and his heel injury. We also talked about some ways Nicolo Melli might surprise Mavs fans. It's a good interview all around with some interesting nuggets.

We talked about how boring this game was but also fun because Kristaps was good even though his play style is kind of boring. We also talked about the trade deadline and our usual tinfoil hat theories about everything.

Luka put on a show AGAIN tonight and, well, so did Kristaps. We talked about Luka Doncic being stupid good, Kristaps Porzingis having a "moment", and what all of this means for the Mavericks.

Dr. Raj from 3CB Performance joins the show to talk about Kristaps Porzingis' knee injuries and how it's affecting him on offense and defense. I know no one wants to hear about KP's injuries anymore, but Dr. Raj explains some really important details about these injuries that reflect issues we're seeing on the court. We also talk about when we can expect KP to actually be himself again. In this episode, we talk about the Mavericks'...
We had a pretty deep and lengthy conversation about Kristaps Porzingis and what's going on with him. We talk about the issues, the defense, the offense, possible solutions, his long-term outlook, and whether or not the Mavericks should trade him. We cover pretty much everything with each of us taking opposite sides of the debate. We also grade the Dallas Mavericks through their first 20 games of the season and play games of Buy or ...
We talk about the Mavericks' improved defense, Luka Doncic's case for MVP, the Mavs' tough schedule in January, Kristaps Porzingis' struggles since returning from injury, and our game predictions for this week. I also interview Evan Zaucha from Premium Hoops on why Luka Doncic has such a high basketball IQ.
(2:49) The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
The Good - The Mavericks’ defense and resilience, Luka’s defense, Luka breakin’ re...
Sydney had on Noah from thenbaunderground.com to do a deep dive into how Luka scores so efficiently. This one is pretty in-depth, so get your thinking caps on.
We talked about
- Two techniques Luka Doncic uses to score
- How he uses his weight and his ankles (yeah, we talked about his ankles)
- How Luka can improve his 3PT%
- Why duos are better than trios (you probably didn’t think of this reason)
We talk about the Mavericks' new starting lineup and why it works so well. We go through the entire week and discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly. Luka has returned to MVP form and the Mavs' defense is now 5th in the league! It's not all great though. COVID has hit the Mavericks pretty hard these last couple of days, and it's about to get ugly. Can they win without all these players? We then read and respond to some listener com...
