Up next, Dana Larson to play that Kidd soundbite 🤣🤣🤣
AD is a cancer on this team and in this city. He absolutely has to go. If this guy is on this team when they open the season, guaranteed a dozen years of mediocrity. So basically Cooper Flagg's entire career.
Trade AD
McMahon's biggest problem is that he frames EVERYTHING said by EVERYONE as a lie, and he's the only one that ever knows the truth. Well, if everyone lies all the time, where is he getting this "real" information?
AD is trash. He is never getting an extension from any team at any time. I don’t care about his wife and kids. I doubt AD cares about his wife and kids. Just get rid of him.
I doubt AD brought his family to dallas. Its a 45 min flight to la from dfw and AD has ridiculous generational wealth. Hes not a journeyman.
Imo a contender who considers themselves just below okc or Boston when Tatum returns should trade for naji
Cooper cannot be included in nicos vision!!
Kyrie to Houston would be great 😊
No one really knows how this will end but CLEARLY it couldn’t get much worse.
They’ll be a market regardless.
A terrible one or a decent one.
AD to Atlanta still makes sense, especially now that the Hawks can just
Absorb him into their cap.
Same for 5-6 other teams.
Because the price now is so low I think they’ll be a big market for him.
Absorb his contract plus a late #1 seems like the likely deal.
Who has a pick in the 20’s and 60/M in available space?
Lakers, Bulls, Pistons, Hawks appear to be the finalist.
Biggest weekend of Mavs year, let's trade AD baby!! For box of rocks I don't care just no long contracts in return
mavs get a top 5 pick … cooper needs his robin
Never forget people that we are cheering laundry and they are going to cash the checks. It’s all about money now and probably always has been
Wait why DID Sweeney leave then?? Wish you two had taken the opportunity to ask him when this came up. Is the reason well known?
GOOD GRIEF. Stop interrupting! Tim was literally going to say why Sweeney went to the Spurs, and y’all were so interested in playing grab-ass that you interrupted and moved onto another topic. Listen, and stop thinking of what you are going to say next. Take meds or something.
Look to ADs exit from New Orleans. That was uncomfortable.
MORE MacMahon!
Haha!! Nick wanted to play the drop!!
everyone hates him but i think hes a little funny
I don’t like McMahon or the black dude on DLLS Sports channel
It seems like Nick is the one pushing to keep AD not the fans. Any trade you can get for him is a win.
30:20 "Not Caleb Martin"? lol Really? These podcasters be acting tough on Youtube, but they be acting real nice in front of these players. We're looking at real-life pussy cats. 😂
Tim is here? I would have brought my torch and pitch fork.
How would you go to criticize people who don't want to trade ad? When your solution is to trade them for nothing.
Avery Johnson was a horrible mistake
Tim macmahon reminds of that guy that tell you something and you hate it because you think he's being better than you but he actually telling you the most realest thing ever and you just can't handle it lmao 🤣🤣 love you tim you call it how it is 🤣
AD needs to not play another game for the franchise when he’s healthy have him on the bench shut him down and then trade them in the off-season. We have young pieces and I would do the same with Kyrie Irving. You can probably definitely get something for Kyrie Irving next year when he’s healthy I wouldn’t blame him. Either. This team was completely in rebuilt mode. The moment they traded Luka Dončić.
I saw the tweets about Luka not wanting to take off his jersey because of the people in the building. Not even a stan, just a Mavs fan. Fuck Tim. He hard a part in all of this since he knew. He rather report, "Luka fat" , than "Nico wants to trade Luka if he isn't in shape". Fuck this guy
AD is untradeable. LOL
Tim MacMahon is an ESPN Dallas sports hating puppet. There is no point in asking him anything.
