Lively is injured? Why not play him?

Any time we play small, we lose point immediately

He went to a shooting lineup because he was up 20...give him a little slack.

It was 30, and then it became 20 really fast.

20 isn't over in this NBA with a quarter left.

Definitely not if you refuse to play our excellent Cs and insist on playing Maxi instead.

Lively injured. Lower right leg.

Lively has to lay off dance dance revolution.

Then just play Gafford more. He is only 25 year old. 35+ minutes is fine for him

we should have this game. But i agree. Maybe hes been cautious since Lively is hurt.

I think Luka thinks he still at golden corral....out here feasting...

Great game to this point. We're rolling!
Our frontcourt is young but they must be ready for the playoffs.

Go MAVS!

What's the point of putting Luka back in the 4th? Just let him have a breather. You are just risking further injury for no reason.

Hope he's ok. Looked decent enough chilling on the bench though. Fingers crossed.

Just like i ask myself what's the point of having Kidd as a coach.

Though to his credit, this new starting unit is now 11-0 but his clutch lineups with Maxi, THJ, Kyrie and Luka are terrible.

Who minutes do Green take when he comes back? Maxi?

He’ll take Hardy’s minutes. He was playing over him before the injury.

What a fun game to watch. Luka doing Luka things. Kyrie doing 4Q things. PJW shooting 44% on threes last 4 games.

This win helps with our head-head tie breaker chances if we tie with the just the Pelicans. Catching the Clippers for the fourth seed would be wild, but Clips own the tie breaker against us, so we’re technically 3 games back from claiming the 4th seed and home court. Only 8 games left!
