Carlisle has no idea what he’s doing and it just goes to show how much Dirk and Luka have carried him

The f*ck is wrong with that team? They keep letting Payne wide open!!!

At least they're choking in the 3rd and not in the last 5 minutes...

They have to win that game, I can't even believe Phoenix are ahead. And the Mavs are getting the benefit of the whistle.

Luka’s shot is looking really off and this game is starting to look like another L.

Typical Mavs underestimating their opponent

I hope Mavs are aware that they are losing to the Suns 2nd unit. It's hillarious. Everything is 1v1, no real gameplan, no ball movement. Doncic literally carried the 1st half by taking out Booker and Ayton in the process. Now they are lost in space.

5/26 from 3.... at this point, no one but Curry or KP should have the right to shoot a 3.

What was Rick's gameplan for this game? 1st half attack the rim, get some ball rotation in.. well worked like a charm. 2nd half vs Suns 2nd unit, go 1v1 and take the most idiotic long shots you can think of?

Horrible coached game. The 3s weren’t falling yet he never had them focus on drives where they had success all night and let them shoot themselves out of the game.

Mavs are going anywhere with this idiot coach leading them

Why is THJ still in the game? Can't play defense and can't make shot.

The Mavs stopped being aggressive. ATTACK THE RIM!

I don't understand KP sometimes. He can be such a good defensive presence and then he has plays where he doesn't even put his hand up and just backs down.

So DFS is going to get a flagrant over nothing in a tight game? This team seems to have way too many players that are mentally weak.

EDIT : Now two stupid plays in a row... Why did he slap him from behind???

Giving them two extra chances to foul on a 3-pointer...

It's hard to believe that Doncic didn't have a shot there instead of passing back. Not 100% clean, but he has moves and he was really deep.

THJ for the win???? Is that a joke?

I just can't understand how anyone thought that could make sense. He was 0/7! He was the worst option and should have been out of the game.

These are the two best plays you could come up with Rick? Ok.

Congrats to the Suns 2nd unit, totally destroyed the Mavs. And for the people who say Mavs are a winning team without Doncic, yeah sure.

Couldn't buy a 3 today. Another W trashed away.

With this loss we are pretty much locked into 7th.

Return to Dallas Mavericks
