Klay cannot play iso. But the coach drew an iso play for Klay is a mastermind.

Can we talk about Kidd now? Or not even a L against the worst team in west without Ingram, Zion and Jones?

This team play horrible basketball, no ideas. No offensive schemes. 0 defense.

Just hero ball (Dinwiddie is a cancer).

The last iso for Klay was hilarious, even an alien from Mars knows that it's not his game.

Pathetic. Shame. Thank you Kidd.

Our most creative ATO play of the season (40 seconds left) - pass it to Klay at the logo for an ISO play. Next ATO (less than 20 sec left) while down 3 - draw up a 2pt play.
Beeing in the bonus with like 9:30 remaining and not exploiting that
wow
I think Kidd pushed to sign Dinwiddie, he loves him sooo much. Everyone saw how bad he played in the 4th, play after play on both ends and yet he played the entire quarter (and his FTW layup got blocked). Hardy was hot tonight yet he almost didn’t see 4th quarter, same with Grimes

This game is on Kidd and Dinwiddie.
Losing sleep over fkn Spencer Dinwiddie smh.

Dinwiddie 38 minutes

Hardy 25
Grimes 19

And those 14minutes of NOTHING by Maxi Kleber.


It's all a no sense, i was totally wrong Avery Johnson was way better than Kidd.

We know he is a bad coach. But that doesn’t hurt me as much as knowing that he is going nowhere no matter how bad he does, just because he gained enough credit in 2 overachieving PO runs.
People will say he coaches very good D, but I don’t know how much he is involved in that - for me that’s all Sweeney.
I just think he got waaay too much credit for those 2 PO runs and that is and will keep him alive.

Kidd proved us today that he absolutely can get outcoached by any coach, even Willie Green

The myth of those PO run is already vanished... Just someone outside Mavs world can say that.
Honestly Luka is the best PO performer of this era.

About Kidd D... Well, without the 2 worse defender (Luka&Kyrie) we let those Pels score 120.
I don't think there's much more to add. Right?

Well it vanished for you and me, but unfortunately not for the front office.
Yeah logic says they should be playing better D in this stretch, somehow they are not.

Another embarrasing loss, another mind boggling planning, playing Kyrie against the Nuggets and sit him against the Pelicans.
It's not jist the injuries, this team operates w/o any direction, rexord should be at least 3-4 wins better with basic things.
Defense wins draft lotteries!

No problem Mav, we have just to wait until the PO where our mastermind coach will turn himself in a brillant coach... On the other hand he carried us the Finals last year...

Oh well and how we play better without Luka, everybody shares the ball.
Beautiful stretch of games.

It's difficult to win games, if you play iso without your best 2 iso players and defend worse without your supposedly 2 worst defenders.

Mavs defensive rtg in last 12 games is 113.5, Luka's drtg is 109.3. Mavs offensive rtg in last 12 games is 108.9, Luka's offensive rtg is 119.2. That's 14.5 points net difference. It's normal that team is playing worse without their best player, but not that much. Coach should make some adjustments in offensive side, and if it's difficult to play good offense, than you should play at least good D. Mavs are playing 26th offense in last 12 games, the only chance to win some games is D, but they're bad there too.

I mean.. who doesn't like role players to share the ball and play with a faster pace? Is it more effective? Who cares, it's good for the eyes :D

And they're playing a lot slower too, Mavs pace in last 12 games, with Luka being out, is 99.08. Pace with Luka on court is 101.72. ;)

To sum it up, Mavs without Luka are light years worse in offense, a lot worse in D and are playing snail pace without him.

And over in NY, this guy named Jalen Brunson who puts in the work to be in shape and conditioned, play crazy minutes in a game while having a very heavy workload as the primary facilitator, and barely misses any time

His friend over here, is probably smoking hookah, drinking beer, and eating Å trukljis and is constantly out

Kidd is a huge reason for these losses, he's been dreadful.

But seriously, where are the fingers pointing at Klay? His D sucks and he hasnt shown an inch of leadership to rally this team. Yes we suck without Luka; but what if the guy gave a crap during the offseason to stay in shape like almost everyone else in the league? We probably wouldnt be without him

Yes, Luka is the reason for Mavs losing games, he should have trained his calf muscles better. :lol: Trolls in this board never disappoint.
