Can Dexum be more wide open and with more time to hit a 3?
And yet he misses it.
Story of Mavs´s game if they lose it

Edit: well, at least he can make the other one in the exact same circumstances

The Kings really got lucky that Exum missed those two wide open 3s.

I'd say it's more the Mavs size inside that is killing them (like many other teams facing that Mavs team)....that and Kyrie of course

That's the worst way to lose.

An unforced error. Them the yips.

Oh, and if you think that Green’s defense can’t be as night and day as is being mentioned, I’d suggest watching the second half of this game (can’t speak for the first as I missed it). I get the skepticism if you haven’t been watching, he used to be legit terrible*, but the tools were there and imo that part of his transformation, at least, is real.

*not like a diva, he wasn’t standing around or anything, he looked like he was at least trying, just often seemed to come up short even against mid players…I was trying to figure out if he was just too underdeveloped or was kind of a master of looking like he was trying but not actually competing, and I still don’t really know which it was, but he’s about as improved a defender as I can recall seeing from one year to the next. I suppose endurance might be another explanation, but I don’t remember thinking he was noticeably worse later in games.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

33-12 fts.

Missing Monk, Huerter, Lyles, Sasha.

Kyrie was on to end.

Guys fought hard but tough to win like that. Not feeling good about refs giving us any love playing PHX, GS, LAL in the play ins
