    The Championship Window

    I’d say that Wemby is good enough to win it all now and a healthy Fox probably is too. Kornet is good enough in his role. Is the rest of the roster championship level? Castle and Harper undoubtedly have the talent, but we don’t know yet if they can elevate and be consistent performers right...

    The Championship Window

    Is our championship window already open? If yes, what should the front office do to maximize it? (Hint: it isn’t trading away Vassell for picks) If no, then why not and what should we do to open it? I may be overreacting to 3 games, but it looks like Wemby is good enough to win a title NOW...

    I can’t believe I’m saying this but I think Wemby needs to shoot a few more threes. I want the emphasis on interior play to continue but we need him to also stretch the defense a bit.

    This game highlights specifically why we’ll need Fox. Not that there was ever any doubt, but what he brings is what we were missing this game. We can’t have our offense bog down like that for an entire quarter. And until Castle improves his decision making or Fox comes back we’ll see a lot of...

    Maybe there's something wrong with his depth perception?

    Player De'Aaron Fox Expected To Miss The Start Of The Regular Season

    The rotations right now include guys who probably won’t get much run when we have a healthy roster. CB and Jordan M will likely lose all or most of their minutes once Sochan and Fox are back. I’m very excited about Bryant’s potential but he is so raw right now. The question is finding the best...

    Analysis Hello new coaching era...hello defense.

    I generally agree that the Mavs are not likely to be very good this season. And I doubt that other teams will defend Wemby with centers as much as the Mavs did. We'll get to find out if Wemby's improved strength overcomes the wings that were often put on him defensively last season. I expect him...

    Analysis Hello new coaching era...hello defense.

    I can't remember the last time I saw Pop show the kind of urgency and in-game leadership that we saw from Mitch last night. That matters, but it only really works if it's backed up by sound scheme and techniques being taught. I'm seeing some obvious signs that we're using better tactics on both...

    Wemby and Vassell keeping us there. Castle played well but those ft misses hurt.

    Why is McLaughlin even in the game? Give it to Harper

    Much better from Vassell now. Kornet needs to settle down and play his game

    Vassell needs to let it rip. He looks tentative so far.
