Still missed. For the second time in a row, the Mavericks stumbled in the first round of the playoffs on the obstacle of the Clippers. This year, it’s even more disappointing since Luka Doncic and his gang led 2-0, then 3-2 in the series, with a match point at home in Game 6. But Kawhi Leonard has been there…
For the franchise as well as for Rick Carlisle, it is yet another failure. Dallas has still not won any playoff series since the 2011 epic and the Finals won against Miami. A decade of famine is starting to take a long time, especially with a workforce as interesting as the one assembled in recent months.
As in Portland, which has just separated from Terry Stotts, is this the end of a cycle after thirteen years and 1,033 regular season games under Carlisle (61)? “That’s a question to ask Mark. I obviously think I’m the man for the job ” Carlisle replied at a press conference. “But I’ll text him to see what he thinks about it.” “
No need to send SMS since Mark Cuban has already closed the door to a change of coach.
“Let me tell you how I see things for coaching”, begins the owner of the Mavericks for ESPN. “You don’t make a change to make a change. Unless you know someone much better, the grass is rarely greener elsewhere. “
Carlisle, who is also the president of the coaches union (NBCA), should therefore continue the adventure in Dallas for some time. Recall that he arrived on the Texas bench in 2008, like Erik Spoelstra in Miami, and the two men share a longevity, in the same franchise, that only the immense Gregg Popovich (in post since 1996 in San Antonio) can them. currently contesting in the NBA.
