Hopefully Luka is alright after the assault... an this an easy win and a part of a larger win streak?

Will the Mavs rest Luka and let Hardy and Wood running the show?

Pelicans are up against Suns in PHX midway through the 3rd Q, I **** hate the south west division, worst division to be in the last 25 years.

Pointless tweet. Clearly someone that doesnt watch mavs. What he pretty much says is that he want luka to pass more, which is bs to start with. Do we want DFS and those dribble around and do final passes? Ofc not, so not taking a guy like that serious. Is he complaining that luka sets up the other guys so free that they have to shoot, which gives luka usage? I take guys and takes like this as serious as those media people that doesnt know how to match salaries and throws out impossible/unrealistic trades on twitter.

Are people complaining about KD/Irving after that game? Clearly they dont get others involved when barely anyone else got past 10 points and mavs had 6. If they got other people involved their assists and usage would go up too, but they just aint good enough

Look around the league. It's absolutely incredible how stacked the teams are now. You can't even afford to rest players because you're hunting 6th spot and not just 8th. Mavs are a 1 man team (for now). I still don't like how Kidd is using Wood. And the fact that even Jazz and Spurs, who were suppose to be super tanking, have winning records, you just can't afford to miss games or even lose.

DP starts and disappoints. But anyway, the Mavs does not guard the paint well with McGee. While Indiana is tanking and Turner is effective, it's about time to build Myles back. Indiana is significantly better with Turner on the floor.

As expected, the Mavs starts to get blow out by OKC. The Mavs is sleepwalking against weaker team.

The Mavs is still really bad defending the paint. Not even defending better than Blair, Harris and Barea.
