The most amazing stat today is the Jazz only got 1 offensive rebound.

Helluva win! Brunson is the man and the whole team stepped up. Just great to see.

Yeah they get the luxury to rest Luka until game 5 at least.

Jesus Christ. Brunson about to earn $30M per season from Cuban. $120M for 4 years. Let's get it done! LMAO!!

Kleber, Green, and Bertans were all big for us tonight. The bench came through huge in this game.

We need to talk about freakin Carlisle. With what Kidd has done in barely a year, Carlisle couldn't replicate since 2012. Kudos to Nico and Kidd for turning things around at a fast rate.

And we tied them with total rebounds too. Great team effort. Proud of the team.

Impressive win for us going on the road and slapping Utah around. What a performance! We had seven players that shot in double digits. Excellent team effort.

Great first half for our bench. Amazing.

In the second we fought in a hard court.
Brunson was the man, he was hurt (stupid o'neale) but he makes shoots.
Only big shoots for Dodo. Clutch.
Dinwiddie have to attack the rim, he has 4 driving wheels. Ok that 3 was fantastic but that's not his job.

Utah is broken. Bogdanovic is a beast.

Agreed. If our intention is to go far, we need Luka as healthy as possible.

Me too.

Oh i forgot...the Laser punished them like i said :evil:

Best shooter in the league by far. Beautiful mechanic.

Brunson is going to have a tough choice. Secondary ball handler on the Mavericks with a chance of playoff success or primary ball handler in a team like the Knickerbockers but no probability of team success.

i dont know man, should Luka's first game back be a tiebreaker game 5?

If you can step on their throats in game 4, do so.

Let him play some minutes, maybe even off the bench.

Its hard for role players to have 2 performances like today in a row.

He could really take off some of the pressure from them.

Knicks dont have cap room to sign him. It will come down to Dallas or Detroit IMO.

A deep PO run with a good addition in the OS for be a perennial contender could make the choice easily for him.

He is a winner, he wants to win.
I don't see him taking the big money in a garbage team. That could be good for us.

Agreed, the sooner we can have Luka get back and re-establish his rhythm the better. We can't expect him to come in after 4, 5 games and not miss a beat.

Maxi shooting like Keith Van Horn in this series. Damn.
