Yes, the Mavs can be headdeskingly frustrating to watch at times, and if you have young children, you should just permanently outfit them with earmuffs until the team’s post season play is over. These are all facts we can agree on.
After the fetal-position inducing Game 4 against Portland, the Dallas Morning News‘ Jean-Jacques Taylor apparently wrote a column that, according to former DMN writer Ed Bark, eviscerated the team. Taylor apparently said the team was “gutless.” I say apparently, because the Taylor’s musings are so valuable the paper has put them behind their paywall, meaning anyone who isn’t paying to read the paper or the website is now bereft of Jean-Jacques Taylor columns.
I will pause in case you’re sad.
