SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 22/02/2025i’ve really enjoyed watching as a neutral observer. kinda feels like a weight off my shoulders 100
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 22/02/2025not really that active lol. i forget about the app most of the time and when i remember, i come here to get out my long winded thoughts lol 110
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 22/02/2025my mavs fandom was bc of dirk and i stuck around bc of the sense of LOYALTY he instilled in the org. they broke that and that’s what tainted my link to the org. idk how that link will be repaired for me 1100
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 22/02/2025i evaluated my sports fandom as a whole and i couldn’t imagine dropping the liberty (for eg) even tho i feel some type of way about org/fan relationships. had to really think about it and i actually figured out my issue this time lol 230
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 22/02/2025after more reflection, i still feel this way but i was wrong for attributing it to why i’m good on the mavs rn bc that’s not the reason 130

SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 16/02/2025there have been like 10 bad things that have happened since i last updated this…that franchise is doomed and ruined. 370
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 11/02/2025and now they’re running that shit like a dictatorship. feel bad for the locals. as long as they have this setup, they will never get another cent or sliver of support from me. i really mean that 270
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 10/02/2025the dude they sold their soul for out after barely 3 quarters. i’m telling y’all…hand to heart, there is a bad energy around this franchise right now. extremely bad energy. 1131
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 08/02/2025if i didn’t absolutely hate everyone on the other app rn i’d do a space or something to let this all out 090
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 08/02/2025yeah i don’t want to be apart of this at all. this idea that they can do whatever and we have to just sit there and take it and pour our money and support into them bc that’s what a real “fan” does…idk i don’t want any parts of that 010
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 08/02/2025i can’t speak for anybody else other than myself so i honestly don’t want how i’m feeling roped in with others bc this isn’t even about luka like that for me. the franchise feels dirty to me now. i feel dirty for even thinking about rooting for them in this current state 4181
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 08/02/2025folks are doing the “it’s not that deep” shtick but i genuinely believe that whole situation is a microcosm of the state of affairs in society. i can’t explain it all here but this was very much “know your place” from all angles 3241
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 08/02/2025it’s a shame we retired the pod bc i feel like i know how to articulate my thoughts now on the mavs. the final one we did was more raw but i know exactly how i feel now and how to say it 1140
Reposted by SJtimely buckets @timelybuckets.bsky.social · 04/02/2025For anyone who wants to unpack the Luka trade from a reasonable Mavs fan perspective, there isn't a better meditation on it from all angles + laughs than @sjbasket8.bsky.social & Uncle Block's final Mavs pod, esp. the first 45 mins.

SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 02/02/2025i’m not done with basketball btw. the mavericks just lost a fan in me. will probably be a better viewing experience for me to just watch hoops without a true rooting interest. we’ll see how that goes 4310
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 02/02/2025this is why i believe in omens. it’s like i felt it even tho i couldn’t see this coming at all 020
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 02/02/20251 more pod episode coming y’all way and then that’s it folks. i’m cool on the team. 3220
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 22/01/2025lively fracture, out for 3 months…it is not our time to shine 2142
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 20/01/2025i also believe that a lot of this bad luck can be traced to the new owners lol. like all billionaires are ghouls but the typa evil the mavs brought in was just a little too much lol. this is divine intervention 3232
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 20/01/2025y’all should know this by now but i’m big into signs, omens, and just overall spiritual feelings and it’s just not our year. i was holding off on calling the season cause it’s still january and we’re still in the mix but the feeling is starting to rise now 3120
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 20/01/2025mavs aren’t a well coached team. a better coach would’ve made sure his team won that game. they really have no excuse for that one, like none at all 1163

SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 15/01/2025yeah i think there’s a misconception that you have to be stuck in misery with the team lol. like you don’t turn your back on them and you still give them support but you don’t have to let it control your life to the point where you’re actually miserable lol 110
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 15/01/2025yeah i see people get so upset and i’m just like you can turn it off lol. like playoffs is one thing but this is the regular season man lol 010
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 15/01/2025i’m saying all of this over here bc it’s so easy for things to get misconstrued over #there and i don’t want people to think i’m talking at them or being condescending lol. i also keep forgetting about this app lol 080
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 15/01/2025yeah i realized that ruminating after Ls is just not something i’m willing to do anymore on the regular lol 150
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 15/01/2025this is turning into a longer thread than i thought but it’s just so freeing lol. i hope some of y’all can get to this point too. this is supposed to be fun. if it’s really stressing you out, remove yourself! 2110
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 15/01/2025this have been a slow process since the 2023 season since that one was so miserable lol. i’ve fully figured it out now lol. watching the sport is supposed to be fun. there are gonna be highs and lows but once i feel like the fun is gone, then i’m checked out lol 1110
SJ @sjbasket8.bsky.social · 15/01/2025on some real shit, i’ve stopped being a prisoner to basketball and i’ve felt so much better bc of it lmao. if i’m not feeling a mavs game, i just turn it off lol. like i really don’t have to watch, i have free will lol 3441
