I have a feeling we drop this one. KP has sucked, but I have a feeling he'll turn it around against us. Luka is just that dude. And we're down to just Harden out of our big 3.

Oh well, it's cool. Go for 40, James.

[Prokorov]

Well Timed off day for Kyrie. Long road trip and big minutes during this streak. Glad to see they didnt just see the all-star break and push his maintenance day. His three has been short. needs to get his legs back.

Should still be a win with just Harden. similar gameplan to the magic/lakers. Let Luka get his empty 30-40 points and make their role players beat you. Harden should feast. Should see more Shamet/TJ who have both been playing well.

I mean Harden >> Luka and it snot like their roles players are antyhing special outside KP who like you said hasnt been great. Luka is mostly empty stats. let him get his, dont let the other guys play above their head by over commiting to luka. I expect a win. Mavs are a below avg team that you can bump down to awful when their role players dont go off

He’s also not getting any real time off considering he’s starting next Sunday during the All-Star game.

I would’ve rather rested him against San Antonio and Houston but I get it.

No Kyrie tonight. i feel like you put so much effort into these for all 30 teams but starting lineups are often wrong?

[Hello Brooklyn]

I don't really care if we lose this game.

Kyrie needs some rest. Mavs will probably be more hungry and take it.

[Stone]

Guessing Shamet gets the start. Or maybe also a possible lineup tweek with Brown coming off the bench and Jeff Green starting?

This will be a good test for our bench tonight. We are the new big dogs so everyone is going to give more effort against us for the recognition.

Yes Harden is better than Luka, but what makes Luka’s stats empty? The team around him is legitimately not good, his 2nd best player is probably Tim Hardaway Jr right now. KP has been injured and unreliable.

The fact they’re around .500 in the West despite all that speaks to how great Luka is, imo.

Let’s be honest, he gets a complete pass compared to any other star in that situation or at that age.

The roster was good enough last season to post the best offensive rating of all time.

[GTR11]

I want Bearded one roster for two weeks. I don't care about win, role player production is more interesting right now.

[MrDollarBills]

Could have rested him when we weren't on national TV but whatever. It's disappointing as a fan because I was hyped for a Saturday night game but it's about May through June so it is what it is.

OT: Richard Jefferson is going to get himself fired from ESPN one day

[MrDollarBills]

Let's GO

[CalamityX12]

Give Harden the MVP

[DarkXaero]

TLC garbage.

[DarkXaero]

Really poor start.

[Paradise]

I don’t personally agree with going small tonight to start honestly

Nash has done very well since the start of the month.
