You would think a team coming off two losses, two awful games by Paul, and coming home would be showing a lot more energy.

Every team in Nba should have Luka on their roster

Maybe I went to far ( Knicks excluded)

The key for the Mavs is still not Luka... Its the roleplayer being comfortable and knocking down their shots

What is going on with the suns defense lately? I know the Mavs are a great offensive team, but the suns are a great defense team as well. It should not be this easy for Dallas but they are literally scoring at will

It was a miss communication for the PnR play. Maxi was late or he never got there.

Control the game Luka. They should be starting every possession in the post so a little less dribbling from Luka.

sure is, if it was the 4th they'd be in more than 'trouble'

i'll admit I didn't think Dallas had a real shot at the upset, so to me this is def troublesome territory :P

I'm not sure you want your superstar to be a great first quarter scorer. Save that for later in the game.

It reminds me of Josh Howard with the Mavs. Avery Johnson knew he had nothing in the second half so they would run play after play after play for him in the first...... and then Dirk would be closing with Terry.....

Once Dinwiddie is on the court they should always be resting Luka. Let Dinwiddie do him because Luka doesn’t move much off the ball.

Booker really tried to sell a foul on that shot without anyone near touching him
