Luka against his favorite team.

Interesting article from Reddit.

Mavs are 9-3 when Luka scores 30+ this season

0-4 when Luka scores less than 30 (counting the game he didn't play) 3-0 when he scores 40+

But sure, Kidd gets very defensive in the interview when asked why Wood doesn't play more. And then gives the most stupid answer that you can give "Mavs are deep at the C position" ...... Really???. :banghead:

2nd best option should be fighting minutes with Powell and McGee? :lol:

And then people complain about Doncic ballhogging. Funny thing is, according to record posted above, it actually works.

Keep calm guys, this season is hopeless... Our roster is not so good.

Let's enjoy to see Luka win the MVP.

Tatum is questionable to play because of his ankle. Celtics coaching staff playing 4D chess. They must know the proven formula to beating the Mavs this season: Just rest your best player(s).

And Luka saying he'll stay for at least 5 more years lol. Well it's basically 4 more, since this is his 1st of the new contract.

Let's see how many minutes Woods plays tonight.

Boston are 9-1 in their last ten games.

Everything is ISO. Even bench unit. Just stand around and watch. How does a coach who plays like that still have a job? A freaking monkey could do a better job ffs...

Nope

We've seen this the last 3 years even the one where you said
they couldn't make the playoffs being only 3 GB after about 20 games. You know the year where you thought they couldn't pass OKC.

Making playoffs with MVP candidate is something really special.

Good job glossing over they couldn't pass OKC.

Pretty sure you said the season was over last year at 17-19 too.

The difference between you and I is I can be both positive and negative. You on the other hand.... well we all know.

Dallas getting blown off the floor tonight, just as I predicted. Boston might be the best team in the league and Tatum should be the MVP if they keep playing like this.

I was very positive last year, when was evident in second part of the season, specially after the trade, that Mavs have something with that 3 guard lineup. Unfortunately that ended soon in offseason, where they didn't only lose Brunson, but didn't address obvious lack of guards capable of ball handling. This game just shows immense difference between Mavs and good teams. Watching Bullock, DFS and Josh attacking the rim is something else, difficult to find similarly one dimensional team.

I opted to not watch this one as I didn't feel like watching them get crushed and become more frustrated than I already am. At least Wood is getting minutes.

It's impossible to win when a team is shooting 50% from 3 and you are shooting in the low 20s.

A close game would be nice. I don't mind them losing to superior teams, but the last few losses have taken a toll on me.

So basically you crapped on them the first part of the year.

Maybe we'll all be lucky enough have a positive Bob the second half of the year again

Is there a reason why Bullock still plays that much more than Green? Is there really an argument against developing young players over washed inefficient chuckers??

Unfortunately positive or negative Bob won't change anything for the Mavs. Nico and Kidd should do something, but that looks like twilight zone at the moment.
