I swear, Lauri Markennen turns into Prime Dirk every time he squares off against KP. Someone look up the stats.

KP got hot but the game never got close. And he was 0-7 from 3 with 0 assists.

Man I hope he’s demoralized after that game. I think he gave it all to Dallas. Time for him to ask for a trade

Luka will leave Dallas to join the Lakers in a few years.

Real Madrid pedigree, Kobe and LeBron fan, Dallas not having the assets to build a team around him...

The clock is already ticking.

Why? They were missing like half the roster and KP is still in preseason mode trying to find his rhythm and catch up to everybody. But Josh Richardson was a solid addition to them and he didn't play. THJ didn't play, Kleber didn't play, DFS, Brunson. That team needs time together at full strength for the bigger picture in regards to who they are as a team to be more clear.

Agreed, I think we have to come to grips that they are a good team and just be thank full for these extra losses before they get rolling. In the end these types of losses could be the difference between a 25th pick and a 19th or 20th pick...not insignificant in this next draft.

It took some searching but I found ONE game KP kind of outplayed him. Lauri does show up almost every time against him.
