And if you\u2019re interested in placing a wager or two, <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsbook.fanduel.com\/navigation\/nba\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FanDual is the best place for that<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Last week I asked two loaded questions and I\u2019m honestly very surprised at the results. It focused on if our readers want changes at the top. The first question had to do with the front office and our interim general managers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">After the Anthony Davis trade I am shocked that this is right down the middle. One would think they earned some leeway after getting out from under that albatross of a contract, but apparently not! The voting fans were split down the middle here.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The second question asked if fans want to keep Jason Kidd.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Again, this one favoring keeping Kidd surprised me. He was arguably more involved with the Luka Doncic trade than the interim GMs and he\u2019s only ever led Dallas to a winning season with Doncic at the helm. I think he\u2019s a good playoff coach, but you need to make the playoffs, something he\u2019s failed to do in three of his five seasons here.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">These next two questions were part of the national survey.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">This one makes sense given what we saw out of Tatum. He looks incredible and is going to lead the Celtics deep into the playoffs if the seeding breaks right. The East is weak and the Celtics are good.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Now this one makes me wonder if the voting fans are mostly Spurs fans. I don\u2019t see the young Spurs holding up for two months, the playoffs is a diffferent grind than the regular season. But they certainly are talented enough to win and they\u2019ve beaten the Thunder repeatedly this season, so getting to the Finals is the actual hurdle, not winning them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Look for another survey tomorrow!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Dallas Mavericks\u2019 season is essentially over, but there\u2019s still plenty to talk about both within the team&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":659887,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5135],"tags":[5229,1596,28510,358,3187,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-659886","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-dallas","10":"tag-mavericks-roster","11":"tag-texas","12":"tag-tx","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-united-states-of-america","15":"tag-unitedstates","16":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","17":"tag-us","18":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116239411859051849","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/659886","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=659886"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/659886\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/659887"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=659886"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=659886"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=659886"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
