Hurt my soul to see Klay just parked in the corner while someone not named flagg just iso’d in the paint. Kidd doesn’t know how to use him

MrBuckBuck | Trail Blazers

And Warriors made 14 threes on 50 attempts (28.0%)

Mavericks went ⁴⁄₁₄ (28.6%)

w0lverine11 | Spurs

And why was Nembhard glued to the bench for the entire 2H? Brandon Williams was terrible out there even though he got points. I know Nembhard was in foul trouble early, but wtf?

crenzler

12 | 4 hours ago

With AD out the buckets had to come from someone. I didn’t nink BWill was that bad. Nembhard unfortunately gets hunted on every single posession though I like him.

w0lverine11 | Spurs

0 | 4 hours ago

They were -17 in Williams’ minutes, he was dribbling the hell out of the shot clock, missing FTs, and keeping the ball out of Flagg’s hands. He was bad.

crenzler

4 | 4 hours ago

Caleb Martin was +2 although he isn’t a basketball player, Cooper Flagg was -7. Single game plus minus is completely useless. BWill has tunnel vision but without ís scoring the game would’ve been over in the 2nd quarter. Nembhard unfortunately is a negative if he doesn’t score 20 a night because you can’t hide im out there. They hunted him with fucking Mooses Moody at times.

emestoo

8 | 4 hours ago

Classic Kerr rope-a-doped them by leaving Podz with no help and just covered the 3 pt line and rebounded. Mavs maybe shot a bit above average from 2 over the top of Podz, and even made some tough shots over him, but no fouls and no second chance points. The Mavs were so eager to go at Podz life, lol.

SkyCrossSteel

10 | 3 hours ago

Teams keep thinking Podz is shit on defense it’s great. He rarely gets beat super bad outside of obvious mismatches. Plus he never gives up when he gets beat by a bit so he’s either right on them or rotating to the big or shooter.

If he fixes his outside shot, he would be unstoppable. Seems perfect at rim and in the midrange.

Mavs are hopeless with ADs injuries. Dude wont stay healthy.

It’s a shame cause the team looks real damn good with him on the court.

GGs GS, I didn’t think we had a chance.

Hey at least Flagg looks good!

baxmussman | Warriors

10 | 4 hours ago

Haven’t watched a ton of Mavs games but he looked REALLY promising tonight. It’s a shame he’s the first white boy ever who can’t shoot 3s, otherwise he’d already basically be a complete player. The way he works tho I’d be surprised if he doesn’t add that to his game over time.

tactis1234 | Mavericks

Yep I am super excited as a Mavs fan especially after the Luka trade lol.

They could’ve easily done Mavs vs Lakers and Warriors vs Rockets and it would’ve made so much more sense. Or even done a Steph vs LeBron game again because there’s not many left to be had

Gaff is prolly banged up a bit. But at least he makes sense on the lineup. PJ just doesn’t

Familiar-Menu-6182 | Mavericks

3 | 4 hours ago

Idk if its banged up. He got no effort in him.

KaitoDaimon21 | Mavericks

1 | 4 hours ago

Imo PJ still makes sense. SG - Naji/Christie SF - Naji/Coop/PJ/Christie PF - Coop/PJ With this, each of them are gonna be able to rest properly. Coop is great at SF and PF, but he can’t hold the fort as a PF all the time. He needs PJ as a PF, especially if AD is gonna be at the 5, assuming he’s healthy. If not, then we need PJ even more.

crenzler

3 | 4 hours ago

PJ can’t be traded this season

Victor_Wembanyama1 | Spurs

2 | 4 hours ago

How is pj bad

WrongContract8489 | Mavericks

5 | 4 hours ago

Not bad just doesn’t fit next to coop. Coop does much better with floor spacing over another guy who drives.

Victor_Wembanyama1 | Spurs

1 | 4 hours ago

I did think pj might not fit with coop but not with what you said.

Didnt PJ floor space for Luka? Maybe it’s mostly an offensive chemistry issue

WrongContract8489 | Mavericks

2 | 4 hours ago

Floor spacing for Luka and coop is very very different. PJ floor spacing is mainly for explosive drives and the occasional 3. It worked well with luka because if they focused too much on Luka PJ could blow by. That doesn’t work with cooper who needs a legit threat from 3.

Raonak | New Zealand

I don’t think the Mavs “won” anything by trading Luka. But, I think Cooper is gonna be better than Luka when it’s all said and done. Dude has an immaculate feel for the game

DuckDucks | Knicks

I wish Dallas would fully rebrand back to the green. It’s awkward when they use it only on occasion, and it’s better in general. The new logo and aesthetic is trying too hard to be cool. Bring back goofier branding!!
