I'd rather Fedex express deliver your ass to the Staples Center than have Powell out there.

Lively put a lot of sudden pressure on his left foot. But there wasn’t any unusual movements/breaks.

Hopefully, he isn’t out that long.

Looks like his mom is at the game too. Sitting court side on baseline.

Teledoctor games... he fell hard on his hip...and put no weight on his left leg... so any sort of fracture in that area would probably be a 6 month sort of recovery? Hopefully it's something else.

He looks 6'7-6'8ish to me too visually but he plays big. So probably is 6'10 but runs hunched over or something like that.

Worried about Lively, didn't look good at all...

Yeah,maybe that's it...he kind of looked almost the same as LeBron or Luka,maybe a little taller

Powell swinging on O when the defender already grabed the rebound is funny and sad at the same time :roll:

Can't let Kidd fall in love again with Powell...

Powell is such a disaster

Definitely hard to tell. Such an awkward fall.

Hopefully just a hip bruise and an ankle sprain.

He kind of caught himself by putting his hands down. But that left foot planted and then jolted once his hip touched the ground.

At first I thought hand injury but yeah very concerning. Going from Lively to Powell is like going from a new Porsche to a 1993 rusty **** with 400k miles.

With Powell on the floor we can lose...

dirkules_41 · Post #52 » by **dirkules_41** » Thu Nov 23, 2023 5:22 am

Powell sure has the skills and ability to ignite any home team being down by 20

Read on Twitter

If it's only a contusion I'll gladly take it.

We need points...

BliscoSantos · Post #55 » by **BliscoSantos** » Thu Nov 23, 2023 5:27 am

The Lakers making the shots closed the gap...the game is wide open...the D is gonna get more physical and that doesn't favor the Mavs odds...gotta stop relying on the three,try getting some easy baskets,get to the FT line

Gotta start moving the ball again. It's all 3s and drives into 3, 4 defenders. And a bit of bad luck. And Powell vibes.

This team is not a serious contender with the way the roster has been assembled.

The Mavs get virtually zero points at the rim and it allows teams to constantly get back into games even if they have huge leads. Watching a team have to chuck threes when they’re up by 15 or more points is painful. I have no idea what the solution is.

BliscoSantos · Post #58 » by **BliscoSantos** » Thu Nov 23, 2023 5:33 am

I don't think we win this game :banghead:

The team is to F-in small

dirkules_41 · Post #59 » by **dirkules_41** » Thu Nov 23, 2023 5:34 am

5 minutes of Powell is all it takes to let the opposing team back into the game and then you're ice cold and got the home crowd against you.

kacey ring · Post #60 » by **kacey ring** » Thu Nov 23, 2023 5:35 am

I’m a few mins behind. But why no challenge on the LBJ baseline play?

His body language even indicated he dribbled it out.
