TJD having himself a good string of games while Donkey is out... solid double/double with 2,5 assist, one block and a steal in 20 and change minutes... draft in the later picks is not rocket science... never understood why we (or someone else) did not pick him up earlier after that college carreer

Also, the Exum revival is kinda fun, too bad its for dallas next to Luka - but that just shows you how truly great players make others around them better

Haliburton turning into an ATG is yet another nail in the coffin.

Jones and Sarver really **** up.

Clippers are bad can’t even beat the Pelicans at home. Nobody should be afraid of them.

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

George had a terrible shooting game...3-15..started 1-13...0-8 from 3. I was surprised he was taking by far the most shots of anyone.

All the Pelicans in the starting lineup shot well.

Judging by box score Cam Payne with another good game as a starter. Honestly I think he can be a starting point guard if you allow him. He's an emotional player, he needs minutes so he gets in a groove.

He did well as our backup starter when CP3 was injured.

OKC team is overrated. DAL is a lot more dangerous playoff opponent especially with the new additions. They were thin at C but now with Gafford will be a lot better defensively and he already got a few dunks on Luka passes in his first mins for the Mavs.

i was looking at the score and it was 108-100 Dallas and next thing I know it's 113-112 Dallas, then the Cavs hit a 3 and were up the rest of the way and had the lead and the ball with 8 seconds left (1 pt lead) but they had to inbound it and didn't have a timeout. Well they pulled a Brandon Knight move and inbounded it off a guy and it went out of bounds, Dallas ball.....Luka makes a nice pass to Green for a dunk with 2 sec left...Cavs have no timeouts so they inbound and Strus takes a shot well behind half court...probably 2/3 of the court shot and swishes it for the win.

Is Mikal Bridges trying to break some negative record from three?

Last three games:

Probably just a cold stretch. We've seen it from Crowder, Booker, Beal, O'Neale, Paul, etc.

even towards the end of last season after the trade, Mikal had some rough shooting games, just not quite this bad.
