We're winning by 10 guys chill... They aren't gonna score 10 in a quarter (they can get 11 however)

This may sound silly, because even this version of Collison didn't do much in he way of the boxscore, but if we could replace 2016 Collison with 2012 or 2013 Collison, I'd feel a lot better about this team.

Payne in during the 1st quarter!

Payne checking in

And he comes in and drills a three.

We're playing perfect defense on Dirk and he's still hitting ridiculous hots circa 2011.

Dirk is unreal still

Didn't like the defense in the 1st

It was OK, the Mavs were just hitting shots.

This. The defense wasn't great in the first, but it was fine for the mos part. Dallas hit a handful of really tough shots.

Billy still fiddling around with his rotations and lineups at this stage of the season is really something.

Two offensive rebounds leads to a wide-open top of the key three for Dirk. Should'v had the ball up three, instead we're up by a quick 5-0 run by the Mavs.

I'm completely befuddled. I don't know what possibly could've happened in the last four games to finally make it apparent Camshould play. Durant being garbage is the only thing I can think.

Poor defensive rebounding and Dallas hitting a decent number of tough shots is the only reason this is a 10ish point game instead of a 20ish point game.

That's it. I've been saying it all day long (and the stats back me up): KD needs Cam to help him out with the bench. The load KD has to bear is just smaller with Payne out there with him.

Dirk drains a contested three. Eff me. I know he's Dirk but, considering he's 37 years old, you'd expect him to miss some of these shot.

You have to live with it to some extent and just make it hard on him I guess.

Well yeah, but we've known that for two months, I don't know what could've made the idea suddenly pop into Billy's head :lol:

So Payne pivoting and throwing his butt into Payne isn't an illegal screen/offensive foul?

Pillendreher · Post #880 » by **Pillendreher** » Tue Apr 26, 2016 1:03 am

Another Payne sighting. Billy's trying to make up for his mistakes.
