BREAKING: Dereck Lively II will be OUT for the Season with a Foot Injury | Dallas Mavericks Plans?
Oh man, the news we had feared since it happened. Derrick Lively is going to undergo season ending surgeries and be out for the season. And this is just another reminder of some of the failings of the past regime. Derrick Lively is supposed to be this young exciting center that we knew that could play in the NBA finals that should be next to Cooper Flag and be like the one of the cornerstones of what this franchise can be going forward. And now I don’t think that’s the case. You just look at his track record over the last couple of years. His rookie year he played 55 games. He even missed time then and then he was available for most of the playoff run and you go okay well this is a guy that can play in an NBA finals and you feel excited about him and you see the potential and obviously you know all the great things we saw through that playoff run and then he plays 36 games last year has a foot injury and we’ll talk about that in a second and now this year he’s only going to play seven games which now all of a sudden you look at that those game logs and you go oo that’s an injury-prone player he’s still very young still just 21 things can change in a guy’s career but you go back to last year and one of the big stories from that year was the Mavs medical staff and how there was somebody on the the Mavs strength and conditioning coach didn’t even have the right credentials and then you look at this Derrick Lively situation where he almost played with a fracture in his foot and so then you’re like how has this happened? Somebody in the team said somebody should be fired for this situation with Derrick Lively and you hope that he can recover from this whole mess of everything that happened with his foot because now this is the foot that he’s now getting the surgery on. And so this is a big deal for the Dallas Mavericks. Derrick Lively should be a cornerstone, but now I don’t think you can plan around him being a big part of the Mav’s long-term future.

How is this on Nico , how you guys have clown subs is beyond me
Thank god let him take his time, Not his fault that he was drafted into unreliable org that don't care about his health he need to separate himself from all the negatives and focus on healing and come fresh next year either way this year was done for, every mav fan know that except ad stans whos throwing everyone under the bus to justify ad situation
Moronic take, LMAO đ˘đ˘đ˘
This poor kid. Such a great rookie season & things havenât be right for him since. Sad
Dude always hurt. He hasnât worked on his body. Need to change his diet.
The true is you had high expectations for the guy , understand Luka made his place and lobs on teams centered role
Even when they had the double big line up with lively and ad defense was mid and offense was beyond garbage not dramatic statement, lively is not that guy and wasnât ever
He was only good because Luka passed him the ball đ
We trade him
Itâs wild that yall feel like yall gotta blame Nico for every wrong doing. nobody is blaming the spurs medical staff for Wemby not being able to Complete a season since he been in the league.. Lively played more games than Wemby so far. This happens to alot of players.. He was literally injured throughout highschool and college. Steph was injury prone for his first 4 years.. Some guys gotta change shoes.. itâs not like yall can get the man locked up, whatâs the point in even bringing up Nico anymore, heâs gone lol
Really can't trade Gaf or AD unless we go full tank
Medical staffs fault
Can we waive him at the end of the year? Injury prone. Get him outta here!!!
As we trading our best player ad and trading gaff this team is a joke
Full tank les go!!
The only thing is he should get traded or waived just like exum solid players but too much baggage
Our own Greg Oden.
Use his injurys at our favor and get him on a cheap rookie extension
This may take trading Gafford off the table.
KYRIE WHERE ARE YOU?
Nico got rid of our top notch training and medical staff because Luka liked them.
Dude lost all his trade value đ˘
G League shopping might find a diamond in the rough
Failings of the past regime? Look. I didnt like the luka trade. I love luka. But if youre to be honest. Every other move Nico made has been awesome. We got cooper and ryan nembhard. Dereks injury is nobodys fault. Nobody criticized the move up until right now. And i dont think nico was alone in the laker trade. Getting the number 1 pick only solidifies the fact that adam silver probably pushed for the luka trade. Its possible that nico was the mastermind behind the trade but if not. He might be one of the best gm's that got done the dirtiest
Told everyone they shouldâve packaged him w ad for jjj or bam
Bro looks all of 7'3 in this picture
Welp, looks like the tank finds you
Sooooo, the medical staff is incompetent, right? This amount of injuries is ridiculous
Most useless player in the roster next to Exum. Get rid of him as soon as possible.
Even glass is more durable
Big men with foot problems….not good, not good. Here is your chance Cisse'!
Bring back Casey Smith!!!!!!!
He was good because of Luka
âpreciate yâall, we love our Cason Wallace đ
This is good. Given the medical staff disaster over the last two years, hopefully this is a reset get-right fix. I look forward to seeing him in the court next year.
Robert Williams 2.0
Dude is just injury prone, period. Unreliable, can't trust him to stay on the court. Gotta keep Gafford.
Trade D-Live, keep AD? Seems logical so we get a better pick in the upcoming draft and donât have to tank because we can keep AD, let Kyrie come back, and maybe get 40 wins this season if the team gels and picks up Wâs more consistently.
Thr basketball gods are not done with Dallas for their travesty, huh?
I love lively. But at one point do we need to cut our losses and get what we can for him?
