RS 20/21 - Mavs @ Celtics (7:30 EST ESPN)

The Celtics have been one of the biggest disappointments this season... it'd be pretty bad to lose full strength.

Still an outside chance at getting into top 6. Lakers lose tonight.

Not sure whether or not Jaylen Brown is playing. Mavs would catch a huge break if he sits, but I anticipate him suiting up.

Hoping we get to see more Green, Bey, Hinton, and Melli

Very sloppy 1st qtr by both teams, horrible close by the Mavs, what was that pass from Brunson?

Melli pays homage for sick WCS and misses the dunk for him.

You can tell Luka and Mello have an instant on-court connection. He’s finding him nonstop open looks

Luka is single handily destroying the Celtics today.

The most bizarre thing about this half is that Marcus Smart played good defense on Luka.

I hope Doncic won't stop driving to the basket in the 2nd half. I know his made 3's are the difference tonight, but every game that he is aggressive, entirely different offense opens up for the Mavs. Also, they need to keep feeding KP in the paint when he has smaller guards on him.

Celts have mainly just been bad from 3. Can't depend on that lasting.

Because they can't get a rebound. It's scary how bad they are sometimes. Much smaller Celtics players are out jumping KP, Maxi and DFS. It's crazy.

Mavs are lucky the Celts shooting has been so off, cause this 3rd quarter would be a lot worse if Celts were hitting their open shots.

What a trash lineup and predictable result. That’s what sh**ty coaching gets you
