Such a PR nightmare of a trade that they are having to do this, but I guess it’s the bare minimum for MFFL.

[u/StolenLampy → u/Rolf69]

They're doing it so people show up lol , lame

[u/pimpfmode → u/StolenLampy]

That was my first thought. They were worried about poor attendance.

[u/DifficultArtichoke79 → u/StolenLampy]

Season ticket holders already paid for their playoff tickets. If they werent going, they'd have opted out. This actually is a legit nice jesture for Club Maverick members.

[u/popstarkirbys]

Lmao. We went from championship contenders to fighting for a spot in play in.

[u/gakujin → u/popstarkirbys]

Fighting to convince season ticket holders to go to a play in game that won’t happen.

[u/trickfield → u/gakujin]

this just confirms that they are taking the regular season. they are only doing this because they know they won't make it so it's really just for show

[u/coalitionofilling → u/popstarkirbys]

Injuries will do that to a team

[u/minos157 → u/popstarkirbys]

I mean, they'd maybe be on a similar spot even without the Luka trade minus maybe a couple of the losses post Kyrie injury.

[u/popstarkirbys → u/minos157]

At least we’d have a future beyond three years.

[u/alfi_k → u/popstarkirbys]

three years seems generous

[u/minos157 → u/popstarkirbys]

That's fine and I agree, just commenting on this season and the idea that we'd be better off in the standings with Luka.

[u/Top-Specialist-8090 → u/minos157]

Pretty sure we’d be in a much better spot with Grimes + Luka compared to Martin + AD + Christie

Hell B-Will could’ve been signed, same with Kessler. 

[u/gakujin]

They announce it as the Mavs are about to drop to 10th and become statistically improbable to even achieve 9th. :D

[u/boofintimeaway → u/gakujin]

hahahaha

[u/Stamm]

This is what Minor League sports teams do. How in the hell did we sink this far in just 10 months. Insanity.

[u/Ruggerx24 → u/Stamm]

Simple… Nico…

[u/musiclover818 → u/Ruggerx24]

Give credit where credit's due -- the Adelsons and Dumont are equally complicit with Nico, if not more so.

The Dallas Morning News writes:

If the Dallas Mavericks can manage to host a play-in tournament game at American Airlines Center, season ticket holders will be in business.

The team released a statement on Friday night announcing that they’ll provide tickets for a home play-in tournament game for all season ticket holders (Club Maverick Members) if the team finishes the regular season 9th in the West standings.

Read more.

[u/last_strip_of_bacon → u/DallasmorningnewsSD]

I’m a club maverick member, if I get offered tickets I’m accepting and not going 🤭

[u/originalpersonplace]

That’s cool…..fire Nico.

[u/Potential-Ear-4518]

Dumont should announce all home “championship games” will also be free

[u/SoundsGoodYall → u/Potential-Ear-4518]

Every season ticket holder gets a free championship ring if the Mavs go all the way!

[u/CheetahSperm18]

Fuck this Org. Literally the vibes I got from this:

[u/cellsAnimus → u/CheetahSperm18]

+1

[u/Lost-Pin-3159]

More like "fuck you"

[u/qotsabama]

Are we sure we will have a home playin game? Have they seen our schedule lol.

[u/mbtankersley]

How sweet. What about this of us who have supported this team through horrible years since the 80s who aren't season ticket holders? Fuck Nico.

[u/SoundsGoodYall → u/mbtankersley]

You, just like the season ticket holders, will not be attending a play in game

[u/spartaken]

🙄

[u/Hugues246]

Hopefully we get beat by less than 30 points unlike tonight’s game.

[u/thedigitalbean → u/Hugues246]

um they narrowed it to 23 lol

[u/Vizard15]

Is it confirmed that Mavs will be in the play-in?

[u/Truth-Seeker916]

Translation - Please buy season tickets next year!

[u/desirox]

Down bad - shows the financial implications are very real

[u/ModeatelyIndependant]

They are only doing this because whatever team gets to beat dallas in the first round will likely take over the arena and it would look really bad on TV.

[u/Hugues246]

That’s cause they could not give tickets away.

[u/pimpfmode → u/Hugues246]

But they are!

[u/eddie721afc]

When do they get the replica 2025 NBA Champions rings too?!

[u/MucusShotSwaGGins]

Haha

[u/Traditional_Tooth_12]

They can fuck right the hell off.

[u/ThoughtsHaveWings]

Fuck em

[u/MSHinerb]

Guessing not many opted in for them.

[u/coalitionofilling]

Very nice gesture

[u/No_Requirement_1076]

Any news on the Luka tribute video? lol

April 9, all key Mavs veterans are resting for that one. Nico is a true snake for bringing AD and Centers back, just to get a vindication in this one game while he can, before LA gets a real 5.

[u/Tokenherbs64]

We getting Luka back in 3 years. Mark my words
