The Dallas Mavericks went 2-1 in a week that saw them beating the Grizzlies and Magic but losing in embarrassing fashion to the New York Knicks. It was an interesting week of basketball but there was plenty of off-the-court news as well. This week the Mavs got Jason Kidd and Kristaps Porzingis back from health and safety protocols prior to the last game of the week. Prior to this, the team also waived JaQuori McLaughlin and Willie Cauley-Stein. The team also signed Marquese Chriss to a two-year deal. We currently have zero players on the injury report for what feels like the first time since the start of the year. We also have an open 2-way contract still. We are in a great position right now as we make our second-half push. 

Now that we can breathe, Reese and Bibs decided to have a little fun and have the audience send in their trade ideas. We graded your trades (harshly) but we did have a few winners. This was a lot of fun. 

Of course, we cap it off with Reese's Unsung Hero and Bibs' Weekly Forecast.
