Let Green shoots, give him miles of space. No matter.

No easy shoots for Looney, send him to the FT line.

Attack Curry and Poole constantly and make them in foul trouble.

Defense rebounds defense rebounds defense rebounds.
And make our 3s.

Pray.

Under such situation, I just recall the memory of the old man and the sea. It's not about how strong the shark is or how tiny the old man is. From the moment one give in, then it's finished. If not, just step up and compete with tons of energy.

This game feels weird, I had hope and anticipation before games 6 and 7 against the Suns, and game 4 agains the Warriors, my feeling is that of acceptance that the journey is over, I hope I'm wrong, it was a beautiful journey nonetheless.
Thanks for everything Mavs!

rooms for error is really limited and the Mavs are less gifted and experienced. And Kerr won more championships but Kidd gets swept in Finals. Facts won't go away. But focusing on what one cannot is not the right way in life. Just learn and grow up. Face the situation and the dark in mind. When the fight begins, all inner self-defeating messages will gone. Just stay in the moment. Punch back like Van Exel did against the Kings.

Luka needs to go up and dunk that ball. I know he's not the most athletic but we can't leave easy points like that on the table.

Can someone tell Luka to stop shooting those 3 when it is not falling, and play DEFENSE.

Luka shooting badly to start the game... Again. The team needs him, he can't miss easy shots at the rim like that and he has to find his 3pter, if not just pass the ball.

Yeah some of the set 3s he has to take and just missed them. He NEEDS to play better defense though. Can't just get blown by so easily.

But seriously though, Luka is getting hit quite a bit. Refs have swallowed their whistles.

Unlimited Luka 1 on 1, and this is proved to be very low efficiency offense against GSW.

Luka is just giving them the game in the 1st quarter. Did he need to take 10 shots and 4 3pters in 12min?

Incredibly frustrating to watch. Completely off to start the game.

Luka's injury is bothering the efficiency out there, somebody has to step up. The Mavs get help from Durant, Finey and Smith tonight. Somebody has to help the playmaking on the other end. No more Powell, please.

Bad quarter particularly by Luka but those Dinwiddie 3s were huge. Game could have easily gone away without those.
