All while Luka is away? Gotta think our boy wonder has had some input here. I'm a huge Rick fan so this one hurts.

After going 2-0 and losing every game after that in the playoffs?  You definitely stand by your man!

We didn't lose every game after that. Look at our roster and then look at theirs: massive talent discrepancy. We pushed a team whom many favored to win the west to 7 games.

Agreed.  Carlisle is a heck of a coach.

Maybe not. He is a big supporter of Nelson. Could be interesting when he gets back

Carlisle goes to Indy.

I know this has been mentioned, but should we be worried about McCasland going to the Mavs?

Carlisle said he wants Kidd to take over, so we may be off the hook.  However, I haven't heard who Kidd wants on his staff.  I mean, it would mean McCasland doesn't have to move his family, so............

Kidd is signing. Wonder what happened between Carlisle and his previous assistant?

Personally, I think it was a rope a dope.  Get the Mavericks to sign Kidd, and then he can hire his previous assistant.

Being away from DFW and not a big follower of the NBA anymore, tell me about Nico Harrison and who is the assistant?  Wouldn't Carlisle take his assistants with him to Indy?

I know the folks in our Indy location are happy to have Carlisle back.  I am afraid Cuban is going to screw this deal up.

Kidd as the Mavs HC sounds awful.  Someone give me optimism.

There is no reason for optimism. He is a Mavericks legend but his actual game management skills are god awful. He is not known as someone who develops players either. Below is a real quote from him after telling Khris Middleton to purposely miss a FT up by 4 with 1.4 seconds left.

“We talked about it as he walked to the free throw line,” Kidd said. “My first response was to miss the second one. We’ll take the bet of someone making it from the other side of the floor. … If we did make that free throw, our luck they get it in-bounds at half-court and we foul the 3-point shooter and it’s a four-point play. We’ll take our chances with them heaving a full-court shot.”

The Ticket can bring back the fake Jason Kidd.

There are a lot of things the Ticket needs to bring back.  the Overcusser, reproman, the Burrito Jimmy crew, Ticket Compound, Charity Challenge on Ice, and the list goes on.

      What is this program missing?

      Right but if we hadn't done anything since the 60s, we wouldn't have a football program today. We were one vote away from dropping football 20 something years ago. Our adminstration basically told the Athletic Department that if the next guy didn't turn things around, that was it. The next guy that was hired was Art Briles.

      I hate to help you out in any way, but Houston had some pretty signature wins back in the 60's that got them noticed. They beat #3 Michigan State 37-7 in 1967, in 68 they tied #4 Texas and #7 Georgia, and beat Tulsa a NCAA record 100-6. Those were the days of Warren McVea and the veer.

      We can hate on him but I do think he makes solid points. It is somewhat helpful to have an outside perspective that isn’t drinking the green kool-aid. (Although it crosses a line if that person starts kicking us while we’re down-which I don’t think he’s done in this post). So this offseason/next year looks like the following: -give morris another year to see what he can build -hire a new defensive coordinator -hopefully hang on to Chandler Morris and Sheffield -pray for a healthy RB room Anything I’m missing? This year: Still think a bowl win gives the program some momentum going into next year. Maybe my expectations grew too large after that 5-1 start, but man there was a glaring need defensively that was not addressed. The offense has also just fallen off a cliff.
