Hopefully Kyrie wakes up. Dwight and Luka can't do it alone.

What excuses will JKidd use on not playing Lively in this game . Wembanyama and Holmgren are learning on the court by playing .There is nobody on both their rosters who can teach them to play as there is no one with their body build and style to match them .On court play is their teacher. Similar with Lively ....... Powell and Holmes are built nothing like Lively to be able to tell him how to play in games.
Lively needs to start and play .

They will. No more of this DJJ starting experiment. We gotta stomp on these guys early.

J Kidd said that he was gonna use the 1st 10 games of the season to figure out rotations but I’m already sick of this ****.

Lively needs 25+ minutes. Why can’t we just play our best lineup to start the game? **** this DJJ stuff. Just play Luka/Kyrie/Green/Williams/Lively

You sound like a Powell lover

How dare I, a real Mavs fan, actually cheer on a Dallas mavericks player. I know crazy right.

Going to need one of the other ball handlers to step up today with Kyrie. Smart will certainly be all up in Luka's grill and there will need to be someone that is aggressive and able to relieve some of that pressure off.

Mavs 3ball heavy early. On the flip side don't mind the Grizz taking about the same amount especially Smart.

JJJ blocked them twice...
Hardy is rusty and a bit hesitant TBH

Defense was pretty good to start the game and drastically got worse once the bench came in.

Rough start for Hardy in particular on both ends.

Maverick41 · Post #14 » by **Maverick41** » Tue Oct 31, 2023 12:35 am

Man Hardy's been abysmal on D. Looks lost on rotations and just not boxing out. Thankfully he hit 2 3s or I doubt he would have played another second.

What a horrible ending to the quarter...

Luka with the TO and then I don't care I'll give up a 3 on D.

That’s the Derrick Jones Jr effect.

A 36 point quarter is unacceptable. If Luka doesn’t get ultra aggressive I can’t see them winning this game.

Hardy needs to be benched. My dog makes better decisions with a cat and a squirrel nearby.

Nobody will convince me that what Mavs are doing is winning basketball. No systems whatsoever, who gets the ball first shoots. Too late to watch this kind of basketball.
