3 fouls on Luka slightly over half way of first quarter. Ref is doing a good minute control for Kidd.

LOL the way Luka running from the bench to get Kyrie off the floor, it is almost simping :lol:

I wonder if Gafford will be included in the best defensive lineup in the league.

Gaff is simply amazing. Can't believe it took Kidd so long to figure it out.

A good relationship between those two is very important. Its good to see.

Gafford has the top 2 consecutive FGM streaks in Mavs history. And this is only his 28th game.

This is the most confident I've felt about the team since 2011. Even in our WCF run a couple years ago, I was never confident since we were always the lesser talented team, often by a large margin. This team is signficantly more talented then that team. Just about health and hitting open shots.

Maxi has been really good on defensive end lately. Just has to pick it up on 3s and we good.

Not a fan of the current lineup (3 guards + Luka and Maxi) so hopefully it changes after the TO. Maxi should never play C unless PJ is also in there with him.

Took him way too long to call a TO aswell. Just let Heat almost get right back in before he stopped the run.

When Kyrie and Luka have big quarters in the 1st half, Kidd has to learn to run some plays for THJ early in the 3rd to keep the defenses on their toes. And get another guy going on offense.

This team needs Lively, can't get a rebound.

Derrick Jones holding his shoulder.

We are doomed if DJJ is hurt.

GermanFan120 · Post #36 » by **GermanFan120** » Thu Apr 11, 2024 1:51 am

DJJ seems ok. Thank god.

Would hate to see Green gets his minutes.

Win number 50, we've clinched 5th. Tiny chance we could get 4th. Clippers it is.

15 3s by Luka is way too much. If he’s hurt and can only spam 3s, then just sit him until the playoffs.

I didn't know the Heat played a double OT game yesterday, that's why they looked gassed today in the first half.

Once upon a time, Mavs fans were used to 50+ wins in regular season. Finally we are back. :cry:
