Welcome here, still lock on to the Dallas Mavericks, your team every day. My name is Nick Engstead. Media member coming to the maps for over 10 years. episode brought to you by Fanduel. |

| 0:23.7 | Head to Fandual.com to get started. That's fanduel.com to get started. Fanduel play your game. It's the one more thing. I'm joined by Isaac Harris, the one more thing king himself. We're talking about the Mavs, new two-way guys. The Mavs made some moves over the weekend. |
| 0:36.1 | We talked about them a little bit on the postgame show |
| 0:37.8 | with myself, Isaac, and Slightly. |
| 0:39.7 | We did a three-man weave for the Thunder. And Slightly didn't even say that many good things about the Thunder, which he normally just like raves about them, which is annoying. So you don't have to worry about that in that one. But the Mavs, they waive Tyos Jones. They signed Ryan Nemhard to a contract. We talked about those moves on the other show. But we didn't talk about the new two-way guys because they wave Miles Kelly as well. So now they have two two-way spots open, and they sign these new guys. And they got two guys that have been around the G-League a little bit. John Pulaketus and Tyler Smith. They've been around, and both of them, Isaac, are sharpshooters, which to me, let's just start there. Before we even talk about what they're about or anything, to me that's just a sign of the Mavs learning. They've got to have more shooting on the roster. There's no way you go into next season and want to compete in any way, or even should have gone into this season with the amount of shooting they had on the roster. You have multiple guys that just cannot get you a three. Multiple guys that don't look at the three. You have Max and Clay, and that's pretty much it as your volume shooters. You need some more guys like that. Every team in the top six in both conferences have two volume shooter guys that play, that that are like basically in their all their starting |
| 1:44.7 | lineups you've got to have more shooting and I think the mabs are showing us at least they've learned |
| 1:49.0 | it starting with these two two way guys and they're doing it from the bottom up yeah they're |
| 1:52.8 | 28th in the league and three point percentage as a team this year that's bad yeah and the other two |
| 1:58.0 | teams beneath them are they don't have winning records either. |
| 2:04.3 | And they don't take a lot of threes. That's the other thing too. What are they in attempts? |
| 2:09.9 | Attempts. Well, let's get our intern on this. Hey, can you can you look up the attempts real quick? I thought you had it open my bad. Oh, the, you just say 28th also? Yeah, 28th. He said the 28th worst worst also at that it's funny |
| 2:19.9 | because the rockets are 29th in the league but you know different record there but uh yeah i mean |
| 2:24.7 | the whole thing with this is like hey we're trying to find we're just taking some we're just |
| 2:29.3 | throwing some darts at some guys and if for me i'm like hey if you're going to swing take a flyer, this was the last day of the year to sign a two-way guy. So for them, they're like, hey, let's kind of reset this a little bit. You converted Nimhart, like you said. They waved Miles Kelly. You know, he was a kid was asked pregame before the Thunder game about Miles Kelly getting waived and in the nicest way possible. |
| 2:53.5 | It's like, hey, we kind of seen what we had in Miles Kelly. |
| 2:56.1 | And so now they're getting their chance at two other, you know, shooters, both of them, lefties. |
| 3:01.6 | You know, you look at Pulikidas out of Yale. |
