RS 22/23 - Mavs vs Suns (Sunday, 1PM EST)

Post #1 » by **Dirk** » Fri Mar 3, 2023 2:47 pm

KD has returned.

Playoff game.

“If I had to pay to watch someone play, it would be him for sure,” Doncic said of his fellow All-Star starter. “Because some of those moves are incredible.”

Another 40 points performance from Luka and Kyrie EACH to give us a chance for the W!

Homer would think this is definitely possible! :lol:

It's a whole different team now, Mavs knew Booker very well and could stop him and Bridges was a non factor on both ends, keeping the score low won't be possible, they'll need to score a lot.

First team to 150 wins.

If this game goes double OT then the scoring record will get broke.

Oh you thought I was talking about the most team points record held by Pistons-Nuggets? Nope.

I’m talking about LeBron’s scoring record. Luka will score 29,688 points in this game. Count on it.

Do you mean Bullock taking a seat for Ntilikina?

Will the Mavs start both Maxi and Wood to keep Ayton away from paint and keep KD busy on defensive end? The supporting cast has to be way more assertive against Pheonix.

Do McGee gets playing time against familiar Ayton? Will the Mavs finally realize Powell can't play big role against playoff teams?

Kyrie / TH against CP
Ntilikina / Holiday against Booker
Green / Bullock against KD
Maxi / McGee against Ayton

Read the pumpfakes before the game.

Hopefully the Mavs don't one up the Celtics with a 29pts blown lead

Don't sleep on Okogie. Dude is damn underrated.

Hopefully Powell will play 5 minutes at most. His minutes should go to Maxi and Wood. And Green should play at least 38 minutes and no Bullock please.

Mavs went on a huge run with Powell in the lineup, you better be ready for Powell to start and play big minutes again. Bullock made some shots in the 2nd half and was semi-good on offense. His defense is non existant so i don't know why he's still guarding opposing best guards, it should be Green at this point, but he's 100% starting like Powell.

Unless we somehow get very good C and a forward, Bullcok and Powell will start until Kidd is here. His rotations are well weird this season, I don't know what happened to him. Maybe he is back in the bottle, who knows.
