I wonder what Holmes and Morris did to not see any minutes over Dwigh-T-rex Powell

Paint D is just embarrassing. Kyrie looks full of energy but just missing too much.

Is it Just me or does Kidd have the same rotations(substituion patern) every game?
Every opponent is different,you have to adjust the gameplan,rotations according to that...it seems like he has a minute distribution set in stone

Yup, the guy has one blueprint for everything and 0 capability to make adjustments. No news here.

So you're saying that Luka is tired in week 2 of the season?

Luka is shooting around 35% every season, the biggest reason for that is that he's inconsistent. Good and bad shooting games are pretty random.

He has a secret weapon for bad shooting games, he changes sneakers during that kind of games. ;)


Nah he's not tired but his legs are not functioning properly for some time now. He said before the season he'll try to play injured, so....


You shouldn't believe everything those players say. It's impossible to play competitive basketball being injured. He looks pretty normal to me.

Powell is getting killed on D and rebounds...make some adjustments coach...Don't Just be a spectator, you're paid too much Just to be watching

I still think Hartenstein’s expiring could be something we could get. He’s 25 so we could resign him long term, and he is 7’ 250 pounds. He would give good size in the center rotation.

Powell is a backup who has situational strengths and consistent weaknesses. We need to be prepared when he is having a bad game.

8 TOs in 13 minutes isn't ideal. And allowing what feels like 90% opponent FG isn't either.

Keep going back between them getting another center or wing assuming they could only get one of the two. Hartenstein definitely would be a good target.

Luka and Kai should be running plays...if not them then Exum...Timmy and Hardy should definetely not be allowed to make plays...I Love Hardy but I don't get why they insist on making him a PG...he's a SG :banghead: :banghead:

If Mavs win a ring one day, Powell's face should get the MVP.

Why we always go small and constantly being punished by opponent big players?

And if Powell gets a statue,it has to be him getting hit in the face :lol:
It's riddiculous how many times he gets hit in the face but not surprising considering there's a video of him jumping in the tunel(before game) hitting his face on the ceiling

Yeah I don't get it...the way Cuban was talking about Holmes(before the season started), that he was gonna surprise everybody,show how good of a Player he is,this seems very weird

But then again,Cuban was talking Nikitina was going to replace the loss of Brunson

To be honest, with D like that is very difficult to win, this's totally embarrassing.
