    I think the Mavs are goin to try to sign Clint to a crazy offer sheet this summer like they did with Parsons. Part of me is mad and the other part thinks it's funny. I don't think it would be hard if we played against Clint for harden and company to abuse him. Clint benefits a lot from the system and our great guard okay. But also the chemistry and continuity of playing with the Rockets for all these years. I dint think he's be a disappointment but it but it's not many situations where he can duplicate the type of success he has had here.


    This could very well be clints last season with Houston. Cuban looked very irritated and miserable watching the game last night like he really hates our franchise and what we built. We essentially succeeded where he failed in trying to rebuilding without losing/tanking.

    What do you mean?


    I think Cuban and the Mavs would throw a offer at Clint trust to hurt Houston and their plans. Cuban and that fanbase for whatever reason don't have the same respext they do for the rockets as they do the Spurs. They hate being outdone by the rockets. they have some sense of self-entitlement over the rockets that I don't understand

    I've already read articles from their insider writers talking about Clint and the Mavs offering him a contract. They like to pair him with Smith Jr and Barnes

    insider writers opinion is worth as much as anyone else. im not worried at all about mavs trying to offer some balloon contract to clint. they got plenty of other stuff to worry about

    Let me ask you guys a question. Why do people from Dallas and Houston not like each other? Just curious

    Good question. Dallas is a craphole. The end.

    Being a California guy you might see it like how some see NorCal vs SoCal. I have friends from undergrad who still swear to me LA and San Diego are crapholes, but Oakland is a great place.

    If Capela asks over 20 million per season, I would rather have DJ.

    Regional rivalries like that might be lost on you then. I mean, can you really trust a city whose highways look like a dick? It's hard to explain the hatred.

    I know a number of people from Dallas, and I don't dislike them. But, I do dislike the teams from Dallas. But, that should be expected. Right?

    Just so you know. Houston is clearly a superior city in every way. So, the two cities are not really equal rivals in my opinion.

    The Cowboys had some success a couple of decades ago, but really that's about all they can brag about.

    you are funny bro...but jokes aside. The nor cal vs so cal rivalry **** has a lot of deep roots...all which are stupid. I love nor cal and my nor cal bros. But truth has to be told Draymond was a big cause of the current hatred...one ******* has a big domino effect

    DeAndre Jordan can't make enough free throws to keep Zhou Qi off the court.

    Because Dallas claims to be the better city, and they had a TV show named Dallas. The only thing I give Dallas credit for is starting the MDMA revolution.
