Smart doing all the little things. Those threes helped too. Get your head in the game, Kyrie.

That Trae Young-Doncic deal was so lopsided, surprised Danny Ainge wasn't involved in it.

Spoiler:
Danny would have gotten a pick with Doncic, instead of giving one up. ;-)

Just give it to Tatum and get out of his way.

Down only 6 at the first stop. Small miracle.

Wow Baynes gtfo with this soft ****. Your ass is standing at the three only and at first you were getting in Tatum’s way the previous possession and then you got thirsty and chucked a three when the possession should have been for Tatum who has been red hot. Stop trying to look to score unless you’re the last resort or get a clean look from a pass

We haven't been perfect. But the Mavs are just making buckets. If we keep pace with them through the dreaded second quarter, I like our chances.

I don't think it's an accident Baynes is left wide open..

I hope Stevens gives Williams some time in meaningful minutes and not just garbage time. It's important to develop the kid, and he may actually help immediately.

For all the Brown fans that thought Jaylen was a future star, just look at Doncic. THat’s what a future star is.

I hope people can see the differenc

Confident we win this unless the Mavs shoot 100% from 3 like they were doing.

The score isn't too bad considering how they shot for most of the quarter

I don't understand how Tatum is not taking all the shots in this line up. Stevens really needs to create a hierarchy so Smart and Baynes are not taking more shots than Tatum. I know it is working out in this game so far but it doesn't on most occasions.

Both team are hot. Only difference - every shot Mavs took was a 3 or at the rim. Not a single midrange shot. Haralabos effect.

Boggles my mind how bad Smart is on offense. A clean look and nowhere near going in.
