Pop is seriously on to something...

David West left 12million with the pacers to join the spurs at 1.5.

My cousin said "Pop is playing chess other teams playing checkers"

Huge pay cut(desperate) good for the team all the same....yet the Western Conference getting even tougher

Mizzzbeee:
aka everyone wants a ring! But next season wud b something else.... West getting tougher.... Am betting d Championship would come from the west again

Getting Aldridge definitely improves the Spurs offense with some youth, energy and experience all in one but same can not be said about his defense, despite his length, size and wing span Aldridge is one of the worst low post defenders for his position in the league, i expect his numbers to fall because of the style of offense the Spurs play, or should I say the Spurs don't necessarily need him to score tons to win games, there are no primary scorers in that team compared to his previous team the Blazers.

Good thing he is playing for arguably the best coach in the league, his persona fits the Spurs ideology and he can learn a lot from Pop and the three hall of famers in that roaster.

Lol. Ooh Mpa thinks his offense is why spurs got him not defense.

The Spurs defense never clicked against Clippers. They're running on old legs (Duncan) throughout that series and the missing 2 of the "big 3" really showed their lazy bones. We want Spurs of 2012 - 2014 season back and Ooh mpa is really optimistic in this new lineup.

Aldridge can't even stop a teddy but he got the best covering for him: Duncan and Leonard even West. He's brought in to ease Duncan's play under the rim. Giving he's a double double machine any day shows you Pop no come play this season at all

Warriors, OKC and Spurs will run riot in the west. Blazers and probably Mavericks might drop for Pelicans and an underdog maybe Lakers. This is why Ooh mpa dey pity teams like Suns, dem no get option to be in this war zone

But Cavs will have an easy ride in the east if all players are injury free. Bulls second and the others will continue to play back and forth. Na this conference Ooh Mpa dey call "TenTen Conference"

@A40
Duncan,aldridge and diaw can split minutes in the Cener position even west sef in small ball setups.

If Deandre changes his mind I'll lose respect for him why announce if he wasn't certain ?
Whichever way these goes Mavs vs Clippers na must watch.

kliq:
The Mavs got punked

Roland17:


I am worried about the Mavs, The Dallas Mavericks need a miracle in the West as they are gradually losing relevance, T.Chandler, Monta Elis, Aminu have all gone, Cuban has to make pragmatic decisions with regards to the roaster, I doubt you can convince anyone to come to Dallas by selling an aged Dirk as an incentive. many teams are indifferent about this year's free agency, waiting for next year's class which is more talented.

I believe Rondo would sign with a team in the West for a year to prove he is still a premier PG and then wait to get the big money afterwards, there are talks about the Kings wanting to speak with him, I am watching carefully to know how he handles this situation.

The guy look Mavs, na one 37 year old wey dey there, no PG, no SG, no C. Look Clippers, with The Truth wey dey come team plus Griffin and CP3

The modern era of social networking gave birth to unprofessional and immature means of communicating and resolving differences amicably within the business circle, the whole debacle with D. Jordan, M. Cuban and the Clippers organization shows how immature DJ truly is.

Cuban is a successful businessman, I want to believe he is used to buyers remorse but he also anticipates the buyer is classy enough to express themselves when buying out of a business, DJ blew this one for me, I personally believe he weighed circumstances after verbally committing to the Mavs and made the best decision for his career because let's be honest, even if the Mavs succeeded in getting DJ they would struggle for the 8th spot but his chances to the championship are stronger with the Clippers but sending tweet messages to apologize is flat out disrespectful to a man like Cuban and the Mavs nation, DJ is a wimp let me just put it that way, he easily could have met Cuban who I want to believe already knows DJ was backing out and talk heart to heart with Cuban, this whole shenanigans questions his personality.

To the Mavs nation, I feel the pain...trust me, I would be rooting against Clippers all season for this one even when they play against Lecramp and his whining lot..

kliq:


Crazy yeah,just hope he doesn't end up like Greg Oden

birdman:


Putting Cuban and class in the same sentence LOL. Cuban in on shark Tank, and he knows business. Until someone signs a drafted contract, its all hearsay. Cuban knows that. If anything, Cuban on purpose spilled communications that were supposed to be private to make himself look good and keep the fans eyes off him. Jordan did nothing Cuban hasnt done before. He apologized to avoid being the villian Cuban wanted to cast him as.

I wish Nowitzki would go somewhere else to finish his career. I have to think personally, Nowitzki loathes shady characters like Cuban. And dont let me start on the mavs fans. A youtube video is better than a paragraph...This is actually how a lot of mavs fans are (bro culture, borderline racist and very self entitled). If thats what you want to root for, meh
