Wood is great on defense the guy has 2.3 blocks per game since he was inserted in the starting rotation and that is top 4 I think in the league. Man does Powell take a lot of hits to the face. It must be like the other teams are betting with each other to see who hits him in the face the most this year and there is a lot of money going to the winner.

He gets blocks because of his length,Just like Luka gets steals cause he can read the game...that doesn't make either a good defender

The first few minutes of the 4th gonna be key. Need Dinwiddie to show up and give Luka a little of a breather to close.

And on queue he appears. Exactly what I wanted to see from Dinwiddie!

Love Josh Green and that hustle. I like Kidd leaving him in there over THJ to close the game especially.

Luka has to be Superman for us to have any shot of winning games. Even against terrible teams.

Really hoping we get some help.

Also, one more negative thing…the Mavs have to be one of the worst teams at executing out of timeouts.

Luka Magic. Again.

Josh with another good overall game and SD with a big 4 quarter... Reggie with some 3s at least.

The others were mediocre/bad/very bad.

I don't know what kind of star we can take for our 6+7 guy honestly :lol: :lol: :lol:

C'mon now. You can't pull that Kidd card every time. If Luka makes nice plays, he's a basketball savant. If he doesn't know how to play off ball, blame Kidd instead of the basketball savant child genius. You have to call it both ways. But I know there is no way to get through Luka fans to have him contribute and play off ball at times, so yeah you are probably right about it. I'd end my comments here just so it won't stretch out the conversation too much.



Luka fans? Is this another argument people make when they think they have it all figured out? If you want to use that argument against me, you better come up with something a lot better than just being scared of having an argument about the team.

But either way, something tells me you're not watching Mavs as close as you should have. When Luka is out or not playing, Dinwiddie and rest of the team have exact same plays, standing around and watching Dinwiddie dribble. How many picks and movement do you see from him? Probably not a lot, right?


You need to first get to the root of the problem then criticize everything else. Why do Nuggets have such amazing screen movements, etc.. It's because Jokic is super athletic dude who runs all over the floor like Iverson, setting up his team or because Nuggets have a lot of sets which involves player moving without the ball?

Why Kobe&Shaq couldn't figure it out before Phil came with his triangle offense which involved a lot of passing and players setting screens? Why Pistons won in 04? Was it because Brown figured out how to use Sheed' and Hamilton as a decoy and ran Lakers to the ground with screens or because Pistons were simply a juggernaut team who won 10 rings in a row?


A lot of it has to do with coaching and yes, i will blame Kidd 100% until i see any improvement in their overall game. But it's a lot to expect from a coach who can't even draw up a last second play, the very basics of any coaching.


It's the same thing Luka did in the Olympics with a different coach. Dont get me wrong, Kidd has his shortcomings for sure. But would it hurt to set a back pick to help your teammate get open? Luka cant play superman for 48 minutes. There is a reason why Josh Green has a medal ahead of him. An honest question is have you seen Luka set a pick this year? In the olympics, have you seen it? Would it hurt if he tried? It would help the team, I assume. Don't you agree? You think it's better if he plays superman for 48 mins or no?

Because I would prefer if he saves all of his heroics for the 4th quarter. Let the others carry some of the load early on. it surely won't hurt to involve other people in the offense. You can only gain from it.


I dont know, im pretty sure had medals and more of them before green got 1 from the stands

So neither use your size or brains make u a great defender... I just got to ask, what in your mind makes a good defender? ESPN studios? Youtube video opinions?
