8/5/2023 0 Comments Sure cuts a lot program![]() Q: Eddie, who do you see getting the last two-way spot and do you see us signing a plyer from camp to the 15-man roster? Adrian A. I still believe there are other destinations the Suns would rather send him to if it comes to that. I have heard nothing specific about the Crowder situation as it relates to the Maverick. And if an injury were to happen, filling that position might become a priority. They are playing the waiting game to see who might be cut and who might slip through the cracks. And I know the Mavericks are keeping that 15 th roster spot open for a reason. We’re pretty sure it’s a joke but either way, it’s funny. At a certain entertainment spot in Rockwall, the building has a sign on the door that reads: These people are not allowed on Shenaniganz property: DeAndre Jordan, Rajon Rondo, Lamar Odom. SEFKO: Interesting that you mentioned Rondo. Q: Any chance we see Jae Crowder, or even Rajon Rondo, as a Mav this season? Eric Bledsoe also available and I think he had a good rapport with J-Kidd in Milwaukee. This is a new team and, frankly, I’m not even sure Kidd and the staff know exactly how the rotation is going to break down until we get into the season and see what’s what. JaVale McGee will be the starter for the start of the season, but let’s see how things evolve. It seems clear that Wood will be finishing games, which usually takes a player’s mind off of not starting. Wood has lost so many games in the early portion of his career that it sounds like he genuinely doesn’t care if he starts or comes off the bench – as long as the team is winning more than it’s losing. And it doesn’t sound like Kidd has any inclination to play the two big men together. I’m on record saying that my opinion is that Wood will be a starter before Christmas. SEFKO: I wouldn’t read a lot into it, personally. Was Wood really OK with that? And does Kidd have an agenda for making that statement now? Joe, via email. Q: There’s a lot of noise and talk online about Jason Kidd’s decision to say that Christian Wood will not be a starter, as of now. Let’s hope this is the start of a trend that lasts, oh, maybe the next 20 or 30 years. While it cuts down on the window for evaluating players at the end of the roster or who might be fighting for a rotation spot, it’s a huge win for the heavy lifters, who probably will sit out at least one of the games, if not more.Īnd let’s face it: Even the most diehard NBA fans – of which, I am one – grow tired of watching foul-ridden, turnover-plagued exhibition games. This year, the Mavericks have three preseason games over 10 days. There was a time when teams played at least six preseason games, sometimes as many as eight. The exhibition season has begun and the players may not realize just how lucky they have it. One thing about this week before we move along to questions. Welcome to this week’s Mavericks’ Mail-It-In question and answer session.Īs always, we’ll be giving away a Mavericks’ hat to the question of the week, which this week went to our email-pal Joe.
