pbrewer+FollowMy Trip to Dallas Proved How Much a City Can Change Depending on Your Skin Color Dallas was the first city where I felt like my experience was completely different from the person standing next to me — just because of race. At a high-end restaurant, the host ignored the Black couple ahead of me for almost five minutes but greeted me instantly. They exchanged a look — like they’d seen this a thousand times. Later, on a city tour, the guide talked about “Dallas wealth” while driving past neighborhoods that were clearly neglected. When someone asked why the city felt so divided, he just said, “Every city has bad areas.” Travel is supposed to show you beauty. Dallas showed me inequality wearing a cowboy hat. #Travel #Dallas #RaceInAmerica7130Share
Pamela Owens+FollowIs it safe to say that Nico is the worst GM in NBA history?Him trading Luka Doncic to the Lakers might go down as one of the wildest front-office blunders we’ve ever seen. The Mavs went from having a generational talent to watching him dominate in purple and gold... while Dallas looks like they're drifting at the bottom of the league. Is there any GM in NBA history who’s made a worse move? #NBA #Mavericks #Lakers #LukaDoncic #NBATrades #Dallas #LosAngeles 163Share
Edwin French+FollowTwo Weeks In: “Championship-Caliber” Mavs Sit Dead Last in the WestAfter trading Luka Dončić last February for what GM Nico Harrison called a “championship-caliber team,” the Mavericks are off to a nightmare start. At 2-6, Dallas ranks last in the NBA in both Offensive Rating (103.6) and PPG (107.3) after losing to the Pelicans tonight. Harrison’s defense-first vision hasn’t clicked — even with stars like Anthony Davis, Kyrie Irving, and Dereck Lively II sidelined, the offense has looked historically stagnant. Last season they finished 39-43 and barely reached the play-in. This season? They’re dead last in the West — and running out of excuses. #Dallas #Mavericks #NBA #NicoHarrison #Lakers #LukaDoncic #NBANews #Basketball120Share
