Pels with their big lineup and agressive D ,are giving a lot of problems to Dallas on Both sides...they can't get to the basket so they have to rely on their 3 Point shoot...that's why this team needs bigger Players...too many guards

I think they’re eventually going to trade THJ. He’s played better than normal this year and they should trade him before he regresses down to where he typically plays. I also think that’s why they went after Curry and Exum in the off season.
Dallas is fully capable of going big with the personnel they have now. The problem is that Kidd refuses to do it. He hasn’t played Maxi or Powell beside Lively this year and I feel like that has been stupid.

I think that is the plan,with all the guards on the team..Maxi looked done this year and he was terrible last season
Terrible finish to the half...instead of cutting the lead to 10 a bad shot by Timmy and a dumb foul by Exum to give Pels a lead of 16

He's definitely made it more difficult but a lot of it were just careless turnovers.
He needs to get it together or just bench him. I'm convinced he's drunk or hung-over because this is embarrassingly bad.
Luka is still too immature, just like Zion, when the ball is not on his side, he tends to give up. Coach Kidd has no game plan or courage to bench Luka. Imgaine if coach popvich is on the side line, instead of Kidd.

Coach Pop from TD days would have probably smacked him. Hard to not watch that half by Luka and not want to do the same.
Hopefully he's back to normal in the 2nd half.

Mavs back to its true self.
Everyone has a right to be stupid. Some just abuse the privilege.

Yeah I'm just done with Luka this game. The lack of scoring, the lack of control, all the turnovers, the complete lack of attention on defense. It's too much today. He needs a 20+ point 4th quarter and win for me to forgive him for this crap. Which he's certainly capable of so at least there's hope.

Just put in the garbage time line up. This game is over.
Pathetic showing and the absolute worst Luka game ever.

What am I watching here? I mean you can lose... but they're hitting everything and there's 0 viable defensive concept.

Alright officially time to turn off the game. Kyrie, a 90% free throw shooter missing 2 straight free throws? Yeah it's over.

Time to sub in Markieff to knock someone out.

Wow that defense is shocking. Sleepwalking around, 0 positional discipline.

this will likely be a 40 point loss... meaning this in season tournament thingy is definitely over too.

So Exum has played 9 mins and somehow is a +2. Even after all the crap the team did today and being down 30+. Serious question, has Exum ever been a negative on the court this season? Feels like the guy has constantly been a positive throughout.
Edit: He's -1 now since the team seems intent on losing by a higher margin.

On a serious note... how is nobody stepping up and sending a message like this. This body langauage is unacceptable.
