Jackson has done a poo job this series. Steve Blake should NOT be playing 17-20 minutes a game in this series. Guy has been pitiful. He is doing nothing to motivate these players.

I don't think it's over, they still have Kobe and Bynum, it's still the Mavericks and David Stern is still running the league.

That's such a relevant stat since all the same guys are still on the team.

It's relevant in that they practically never lose both games at home.

Also you don't seem to question the relevancy of people saying they've learned not to count the Lakers out from past seasons. The Lakers haven't played the Mavericks in the recent past so you can throw all that out.

Obviously each season and each team is different but being down 0-2 when you started with home court advantage is a bad spot to be in.

You can talk about core players and what they've accomplished but bringing up a state from the 70s when none of them were born is a little ridiculous.

The Lakers from past seasons can't be counted out because they have the same core that won them 2 championships recently and they still have Kobe and Fish who have 5 rings each. That is relevant.

Agreed being down 0-2 is shitty.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      He had games where he was a top 10 QB that week, vs Saints, Falcons, Eagles, Chiefs, Bucs.  Amazing performances that I think show what he can do consistently.  He must play with confidence to overcome physical limitations where someone like Cam can struggle all game and then win the game at the end by running someone over. Bryce won’t be that and I am fine with it, it’s time for us to move on to the new era. It’s been 5 long years.

      We both know there's more that goes into batted passes than just the height of the QB. Most people here have readily acknowledged this and there were numerous discussions about it before we drafted Young. But if you are presenting a POV that Bryce's height hasn't tied to issues with his footwork then there's nothing anyone is going to be able to say to sway you and you know this. Even beyond the footwork I recall a redzone play where Bryce couldn't see around his right tackle at all where a receiver was waiting practically alone in the end zone for a touchdown. There are real world circumstances that are going to show up over the course of the upcoming season and it's up to Bryce and Dave Canales to make adjustments and do anything they can to mitigate negative instances and yes that begins with Bryce's footwork again. Thanks for your time. Have a nice weekend.
