Oh no... We're already coached by Kidd 2.0 now this guy who's suppose to be defensive coordinator with Mavs.
Out of interest: Has THJ ever put on the USA jersey?
Don't give them anymore "brilliant" ideas, i beg you!

During the 7 game win streak we had the best defense in the league.

@MavsMuse
?
16m
Dallas in the last 6 games:
? #30 in Defensive rating
? #26 in net rating
? #30 in 3P% allowed
? #29 in PTS allowed
? #29 in FG% allowed
? #26 in FTM allowed
Should be obvious the coach needs to go like yesterday, but nothing happens. I guess Cuban really is still in charge.

Don't know who to root for in the Lakers/Kings game, I'm leaning towards rooting for the Kings who are winning anyway.

Well, Mavs have departed from the 5-8 group, and are now part of the 8-10 group.
Make no mistake, Mavs control their destiny, they play the Kings twice, Dubs 3 times, and have tie breaker with the Suns, and can have the tie breaker with the Pelicans by beating the Spurs and the Rockets, but the way they look, holding onto 8th is wishful thinking.

Spurs lost the lead of could've been huge night standings wise.
I don't see the Pelicans dropping, they are a good team when Zion is healthy, so it's Kings and Suns who Mavs have to beat to get to 6th, while they have to fend off the surging Warriors who are angling for top 8 seed.

Wow Dinwiddie with the block! It looks like Lakers got the win without Lebron and AD getting injured.
D'Angelo Russell also made such clutch plays to get the win. Those floaters were not easy ones. So many skillful small guards in the league for scoring, but they also pose a defensive liability. Lakers subbed D'Lo out for defense but Doc Rivers didn't do such for Lillard.

Wow! Ws lost to the Spurs at home w/o Wemby and Sochan, Suns expectedly lost to the Celtics, but they put up a good fight, they seem to have found their groove.

Spurs also should have beaten the Kings apparently. Leading the last minute and some crazy stuff happened.
Suns have a brutal 3 games coming up. And hopefully Grant Williams goes for 45 on them in the easy one.

Reading the room is not one of Grant Williams best traits
**** the Cavs, they go on an insane shooting spree to beat the Mavs and fumble the ball against the Suns.

Another Wizard having BIG SUCCESS away from the Wizards.
Gafford is just a bench player that will get limited minutes in the playoffs. He’s a terrible pick and roll defender and he can’t shoot, two critical skills that bugs need in order to succeed in the playoffs. Dunkers spot big men usually get played off the court.
You’ll see once the Mavs play that guy in Denver or even the guy in Houston. He gets owned by even the slightest offensively talented big man. It’s why he comes off the bench.
They hated Rui ,KP ,Beal and now Gafford BUT LOOK the Wizards are 11- 53 and think they're on the right track to an NBA Championship.

Bucks get routed by the Kings, Mavs took care of business 3 games, but just like their 7 games streak, they nearly don't gain any ground because everyone keeps winning.

The last 16 games :
Denver & New Orleans 12-4
Lakers ,OKC , Mavs ,Suns 11-5
Minn 10-6
Clippers , Sacramento 8-8
Just to put in context how the Mavs and their competitors in the West are playing . It's winning time now and we'll see who wilts and who steps up for the teams and their stars .
