Ugly ugly ugly game. But a W is a W.

Do you had problems with the LP too?

Didn't watch the Mavs game, watched the Nuggets/Clippers, had no issue.

[Mavrelous]

Just horrible scheduling by league...
The team comes from a 5 games road trip that included massive amounts travel, have one day rest and then play 3 games in 4 days, they already looked done in the 4th quarter in the 1st game.

The good thing is: Usually we lost these ugly games.
The bad thing is: These guys need some rest, but there is no time for that. Hopefully no more injuries incoming

At least or Mavs opponents have similarly difficult schedules.

Mavs schedule in terms of SRS is fairly easy, but they started 3 games in 3.5 days (Houston game is a matinee), after a very long and exhaustive road trip.
I'm not worried about results, I'm worried about injuries.
I hope they win the next 2 games, this way they can totally punt the trip to the east coast and keep Luka, Kyrie and Gafford at home.

I wanted to say that Hawks played on back2back, Warriors will be on back2back too and Rockets are having 3 games in 3.5 days too. I agree that Mavs schedule is exhausting but at least their opponents having similar problems. Just imagine, if they have to play against rested teams. I hope that Rockets will be less eager to play hard with their chances gone.

Yeah, it's unfortunate that Mavs have to do this without their backup big and backup guard.
Kidd needs to get creative with rotations, but not roll out Kyrie/Hardy/THJ, play fresh legs who can defend like Lawson and Prosper in dead minutes.

Do you had problems with the LP too?

I was watching on LP on my phone, probably about an hour behind live action. It froze multiple times and skipped 1+ minutes ahead multiple times too. Not surprised though.

For us from Europe, the best solution is to watch game first in the morning. If the game is not too late, you get shortened 100 minutes version without timeouts, which works fine.

I watched the game at 9am in Italy and freezed a lot of times. Unwatchable.

Yeah, wish NBA could’ve worked out a better rescheduling for the postponed January game with Dubs.

Looks like original schedule was this:
-3/31 finish a 4 game road-trip in Houston
-4/2 home game vs Warriors
-4/5 home game vs Hawks

Atleast the rescheduling put us against teams that are on the backend of back to backs. Otherwise NBA didn’t have much flexibility.

I typically watch games live on LP on Roku TV. Outside of the occasional crash of the app it’s been a better experience than prior years.

I'm watching on TV app and have mostly no problems.
