Welcome to the Mavs Quentin, stay healthy 110% and get redeem yourself from bad season and injuries

This guy can turn into Derrick white for the mavs , I’m so excited

This video has me convinced this man is the best defender in the history of the NBA. I love that delulu feeling after a Panda Hank welcome vid.

I cannot stress enough how much of a big upgrade it is to go from someone completely erratic like THJ to someone stable who won't make crazy decisions and can play on both sides of the ball.

i'm half way watching the highlight... i like the defense... woohooo...

Great trade and upgrade from Timmy.

I like this guy. You know his best season is 24-25. Long strong arms. Gritty. Perfect fit for Luka and Kyrie. Such a smart move that no one is talking about. To me he is the kind of player that Green could be. Championship teams need players like this. Mavs get their man and save $12M so actually they can sign another good player for same cap space as before. Best to Hardaway. Good moments from him.

This dude is an absolute play maker, JG does not compare to this man in the least, package JG and another and make another steal of a deal niko, Niko is the true genius master mind, best addition to this organization ever

Welcome to Dallas young fella, let’s go win a championship. I believe that the Dallas Mavericks just got a lot better.

Nico continues to just absolutely kill it. The fact we got this for THJ and some who cares seconds is awesome. Get back to that 38% from 3 he had his first two seasons and that would be insane

I was at the 12/27/22 mavs vs Knicks game, Grimes was going off and it ended up being his career high at the time and current second (33 points). Was always a fan of his after that, happy we've got him now

Reminds me of Nellie and Cuban's old philosophy that "if you always have a good game against Dallas, you must wanna play for Dallas." They usually reply, "Yeah I do"! Then we sign 'em.

I’ve liked his game since he was at Houston. He will be a great fit for the Mavericks.

ooooh if this guy can defend the best player at spurts, and we can keep DJJ, we'll be having three good defensive wings.

@@tyrq he won’t unless it’s a monster deal. They like him and he’s a perfect fit with Luka and Kyrie. Shoots, defends, finishes at the rim, can pass, willing screener, good teammate and decent contract. He’s not going anywhere. More likely Grimes and Hardy leave because their contracts are up. Those two, Maxi, OMax and Gafford for a playoff tested monster like Draymond because you can make the contracts work (he makes 24.1/M). Him and maybe Gary Payton for a collection of Mavs, but I hope they just make it work with this bunch. Great guys. I don’t know how much better they’d be with Draymond and they might not want to invite that type of manic behavior into their locker room although he might be the only guy we can afford who would have made a difference against Boston. They are the gold standard. To beat them is going to be really tough.

@@fijianwonder well if that were true he would not have been available. He’s young and they would have hung on to him. They clearly chose Sasser and Ivey over Grimes and it didn’t help that he’s in his option year. He was also awful in six games with them and then got hurt. He fell out of favor in New York as well. I like him but don’t pump him up. He’s a good player who has a ways to go before he’s a full time starter again. He won’t play ahead of Jones. Hopefully they find minutes for him AND GREEN. I don’t see any minutes for Hardy and maybe not Exum either. Wild because they both have played so well in stretches. We are incredibly deep.

Extremely talented and hardworking, doing the dirty work of guarding the best in the NBA. Mav's management does it again finding talent.

i was very sad that my Mavericks lost Josh Green but this video makes me feel a little better

Thank you Panda!!! Grimes looks great! Should fit in well. I have visions of him making those inside passes to DLive and the Landlord.

I watch him since his Houston Cougars days , he will love Dallas

I like him, he seems like he's a smart player which we need

Dang bro I can't wait for next season

Great defense I like it🔥

If he can stay healthy, he is an awesome addition to the team. Nico is making a hell of a job.

Welcome to dallas!

PandaHank always comes through!

Mavs just got their Derrick White...Fabulous trade

I’m excited to see how he does in Dallas. I think he’ll bounce back in a big way after a down season. I hope he stays healthy. I think it’s redundant to have Grimes, Green, and Exum all together on this team, so I’m guessing someone gets traded at the deadline, if not this summer.

I think he eventually starts for us, we’re already a better team than we were a few weeks ago

Sheesh, he’s nice!!!! It’s up! Let’s go!

Now im hyped!!

Grimes, Naji, and Klay. Klay knows what he's doing 😂

Lol, panda even included Luka being lazy to get back on D after getting stripped by Grimes

We simply got better with this deal...however much you want to quantify it, he is a better option than a THJ with the "yips" at this point. 😊

I feel like Josh green be missing those layups that grimes is making

Those passes 😤😤 tough man. Also i definitely see real shades of Josh Green in there. Almost the same player lowkey. Also from the little highlights i saw he might be a Jimmy stopper 😅 owned him

Looking forward to the highlight from Melvin Ajinca

He plays exactly like Green that's crazy. Grimes and Green together on court as our 2nd unit would be hell for the opponents. I really wish we don't trade Green or Hardy...

He has a real chance to grab that starting spot. Haven't seen that level of stick to quick footed guys like Trae Young and Donovan Mitchell since Marcus Smart and Bruce Brown. He also is a strong finisher which is another plus

@reececisneros1622 Cause if he is even average from 3pt land with no defensive liability, then he should start. We started DJJ based on his defensive potential, and we made the finals.

Good pick up

His shooting form reminds me of Brandon Roy.

welcome to dallas

Grimes, Klay, and Marshall will all contribute significantly to the Mavs' passing, playmaking, and court-awareness, and collectively should be good enough to make up for the loss of DJJ on defense. Mavs unfortunately did lose a bit of athleticism from DJJ and Josh Green. But the Mavs' problem in the Finals was offense. If Luka buys in to more of a ball-moving offense, problem rotundly solved.

Good video. Can you make one about Grant? Especially how okay he is with being poa. Im excited about Grimes he’ll be a good piece with Hardy. I already have a nickname for them: HardRimes Hard Rhymes as sound)

I’m not saying he’s there yet, but Grimes could really be our Derrick White one day

Welcome to the team! He can only make it better since you really cant be any worse than THJ lol 40% 3pt on 3-4 made and good D for 20 mpg would be fantastic 💪🏽

Hopefully he can put it all back together. He is young and has a lot of basketball left.

QG for most improved next year

think we are gonna end up in a deep playoffs run again.

Looks like the inevitable Dante Exum or Josh Green replacement, depending on which one eventually gets traded.

Defensively he is more consistent than green and has a higher ceiling. Josh makes some wild loose ball plays sometimes, but he also gives up turnovers in crazy ways too. Offensively I would say they are very similar. It's mostly the defensive consistency that makes him clearly somewhat better than Josh.

He can average double digits with his skill set. Maybe a 3rd team all-nba team defense potential too.

already a big upgrade from thj 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Grimes is a better shooter than numbers say. Watch how players close out on him, teams don't want him shooting threes

so is Grimes basically Josh Green 2.0? lol

if we somehow fail to resign djj, is there a posibility that he starts as a 3? Or is he too small for that spot.

Is he a good ball handler or creator? As in can he play PG off the bench if Kyrie or Luka are out

Thank you Panda!

Better shot selection than timmy with ball handling and defensive skill.

no matter how many defensive players Dallas gets... if Luka dont defend consistently then he'll always gonna be a target in pick n rolls and off ball screens...

Need to respond with Josh Green’s highlights now Panda.. see how he checked other team’s best players

JG goobbye soon

How does Nico keep cooking? You mean to tell me that he got this kid for Hardaway and a couple of 2nd rounders? Grimes is everything Hardaway should've been. What really surprised me was how aggressive he is and his passing. He really enjoys driving it to the cup & can make some great passes along the way. He's really gonna fit in with the Mavs bigs. Those are aspects of the game that don't really fit Hardaway. Hopefully Grimes can shoot like 37% from 3. That would be huge. And his point of attack defense is really impressive. Another aspect of the game that just ain't Timmy. It's got me wondering if Grimes might not come in and compete with DJJ for the starting spot.

if healthy he can guard 1 2 3 position

​​​​​​@@brianhenry7983but that's because holmes was always only ever about moving bertans contract and getting omax in the process. Most smart mavs fans understood holmes would likely never see minutes and was just an easier contract to move than bertans. It's extremely unlikely we ever would have sniffed getting someone like gafford if we were trying to stuff bertans shitty contract in to the deal. Dante exum has well exceeded his contract value. He is basically the end of the bench guy, and frankly you could do so much worse I am borderline shocked anyone would have a problem with 3m for a guy that makes the contributions he has. Hardaway's contract actually was not bad when nico re-signed him and continues to be a fair contract for a team who needs a player of his type. Frankly he was an impact player for us prior to the TDL. He became expendable on this roster once we became more defensively minded, though. Grimes is literally only someone we traded for to come off thj's contract. The fact that grimes could potentially actually be useful is just icing on the cake. Are you aware of the alternative options that were out there to move off thj's deal to free up the MLE? Grimes is the only remotely useful player that was on the short list of guys mavs could trade for that fit the financial situation they were trying to get out of. I'm going to refrain from saying anything completely rude to you, but you're simply missing the point if you think this has anything to do with bringing in a marginal player like he is going to save our team. Furthermore, you're blasting fans getting excited from watching nico cook like we didn't just make the nba finals.
