I feel like this game is a trap game.

Sometimes Hawks can beat anyone in any situation when they decide to play...

Hawks are playing a back to back.
Malachi Flynn (yes the one and only) just dropped 50 from the bench on them. But Hawks won.
Tray Young is still out.

What will Luka do with them?
Somehow I am still scared. The omens could hardly be better, but that is also often our problem

PHX is only a game behind. Can't afford to lose this game or let guys rest. Stomp on them early and rest in the 4th is the ideal scenario.

Looking at the schedule again, we are indeed in a very dangerous spot that makes tonight's game another must win situation.

I don't have too much faith on a B2B tomorrow against GSW + their refs squad.

We have to destroy the Warriors after last game. No excuses.

Hawks coming off a back to back. I have a feeling tonight will be a big Kyrie night. He's due for one. Sun's and Pel's are .5 back i think we blow the hawks out tonight. Luka and Kyrie can rest in the 4th.

Every game is a must win, but losing to the Hawks, who are extremely short handed and on night 2 of a B2B would be devastating.

Mavs need to run away early and give the starters some rest for tomorrow

Yeah these schedules are brutal. 5 games on the road and then B2B at home vs GSW on the 2nd night. It's so dumb.

That scheduling wasn't planned in the beginning. The warriors game is the game that got postponed because milojevic died. That's why it is in a weird place like it is

Luka is going to receive at least one T in this game.

It seems like when someone posts "blow them out and rest Luka and Kyrie in the 4th quarter" we never do that.

Or maybe we just never do that period.

Let's go: the Maxi THJ Powell trio.

Championship caliber!

This cannot be more obvious.

The refs are blatantly favoring the Hawks.

Kidd actively trying to play the worst defensive lineup possible on the team.

Kyrie, Hardy, THJ AND Powell all in at the same time?

Hawks should be ashamed of themselves if they don't win by 25+ points today.
