Live and die by the three is what’s keeping this fn game close!!!! Sometimes you have to roll with it and switch it up.

Tatum stop settling for trash shots vs Exum

Tatum 6 for 18 is nasty work.

Think that was it for the non Luka minutes. Big wasted opportunity to put the game away

Major lol to have Pritchard in there to start the quarter.

Getting points off drives so what does JT do? Fadeaway Time!

I'm thinking he wants him fresh for the last five minutes, since we can't count on Tatum to score at the end

Tatum's shooting is a **** disaster.

Joe has coached well. Players gotta finish it.

Come on Tatum, you have a guy 4 inches shorter and about 45 pounds lighter and you settle for a fadeaway that far from the basket… you have to attack man, get out of your head and attack

I dunno, maybe better to save his minutes for later.

Letting Kyrie keep them hanging around while Luka rests, KP on the bench.. not my fav

He doesn’t know how to take an easy jump shot. He just needs to bang and bang and just jump straight up. He’s making it hard for himself.

It feels like we should be losing right but honestly we might be losing if the Mavericks hit their FTs

You’ve got a 10 point lead. Who cares about the final five when you can step on their throat now.

He's mostly been attacking all night.

If Dallas matched us in FT% but our guys were shooting 30% from 3, the lead would probably be a little bigger.

Yes and no.. calling a time out just gives Luka more time to rest.. But it's all because we are sucking or should I say Tatum And his shooting.
