The Season From Hell Rolls On...

In this episode we discuss the Mavs' 115-114 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, their 10th loss in the last 15 games. The game was perhaps overshadowed by the devastating news that Dereck Lively will miss 2-3 months with a stress fracture in his ankle, adding to this “season from hell” which has seen several Mavs starters suffer significant injuries. We talk about how this news changes the expectations for this season and how it might alter their approach to the trade deadline in two weeks. We also share our thoughts on the strengths and weaknesses of Jason Kidd as a coach and how he may not be elevating the team to their full potential during this depleted stretch. Finally we debate where the Mavs should consider punting on this season and focusing on draft positioning.
