He didn’t really get it during the omicron wave, was definitely afterward so not sure it’s omicron

My favorite take these days that would cause a meltdown throughout the media is that Booker and Doncic are on the same level. If they swapped teams, would the Suns or Mavs be significantly better or worse than they are now? I don't think so.
The only difference is Luka is a little over two years younger so he would, in theory, be better in his age 25 season than Booker is now. However, I'm not yet convinced that'll happen based on Luka's playing style and off-season habits.

If we made that swap, we’d have to change our 0.5 offense to the 16.5 offense.

Don't follow a ton of national media or talking heads but it seemed like a lot thought that the Mavs had "figured something out" against us late in the game to make it close. We know it was a blowout and the score only got close because we ran the clock while they scored some easier baskets. Hope we can repeat Game 1 but close it out strong to show everyone the Mavs aren't close to our level.

I know JaVale is a rollercoaster when he plays but I love him and want him here until he retires.

"I knew I wasn't going to pass it the whole time."
He drives me so crazy at times, and I love him.

The only thing I can think of is that it is about 2000 miles between San Fran and Memphis, and <1000 from Phoenix to Dallas.
Still, we are only talking about an extra couple hours in the air.

Should’ve just gave both teams an extra day, with warriors/Grizz Friday and suns-Mavs Saturday.

Think I read that there were other events scheduled at Oracle that conflict with the normal playoff schedule.
