KP on Wood should be a fun matchup.

Worried about the Mavs playing down to the competition though like they tend to do

Wood didn't play yesterday and isn't playing today.

Olidipo is also OUT & Wall is PROBABLE.

They do have some shooters who can catch fire in McLemore and Gordon - and good shooters in Tucker and Brown.

Yet i think Cousins can be the key. He has played like absolute dog-crap all season, but for some reason i have a feeling he might dominate this game. The 3 minutes he played in the first game before the ever so soft ejection, was domination from him. That's a very small sample size, but still..

Should win the game no matter what though.

I think this is a game I’d expect the Mavs to win but second night of a back to back, I don’t know. This team is tired. I would not be shocked if the Mavs lose this one.

The only reason why i think Mavs can win this B2B is because they didn't have to travel far. Still don't trust Doncic in these type of games, he never has legs under him the next day without a proper rest :(

Rockets also played last night so Mavs really have no excuse. Silas does know the Carlisle playbook though

Yes.
And also know right knee sorness is a bad sign. And sure lock the thread if you dont want to talk about it.
Better yet I went and deleted. Let us not speak of his knees and rather say. Today Dallas will win and Porzingis will be amazing this season his knees will be fine.

There the attitude has changed all is great

You know this code for rest right?

The guy basically never plays in b2bs so why is this shocking.

You played sports? In the season there wont be a single player that isnt sore somewhere every game, specially after 7 games in 11 days, so dont see the fuzz. Only reason they might rest him and not others is that he is 150m and just got back from surgery. There is no reason to play him. I mean, I didnt think he woulf play back to backs at all in RS

It is not. We have a guy who will be skipping b2b in the future which is normal for many players in todays nba.
His knees are fine he is great and Dallas can be extremely happy and relaxed. No problem. My bad

I played basketball with Goran Dragic. Luka Doncic first coach was my coach. So yeah i played sports.
Sore legs, sore ass etc is normal. Sore knees = ligament damage

But like i said no worries. I was stupid and generally foolish to bring it out. I apologize

Exactly, and he's played pretty much without minute restrictions - averaging 30.2 minutes. Pretty impressive really coming off an injury.

Return to Dallas Mavericks
