NAW and Naz too. I am surprised by our defense. Thankfully our offense is picking us up. Hopefully we improve in the 2nd half.

I don't think defense has been good..we have had some miscommunications in various possessions. Need to tighten up things

Ant settling for 3s when he needs to drive and kick (or go all the way to the basket).

Dallas make a run each time Rudy and Mike sit. Naz is still inconsistent. Some games he play so well and some so bad on both side of the court. Go wolves !

Mike sits, offense sucks.
Rudy sits tonight, the defense falls apart.

We got some stuff to figure out, Luka and Kyrie having their way with us tonight.

Kyle > NAW. NAW has been barbecued on defense and he's been a zero on offense. I'm not sweating him leaving after next year anymore.

I'd like to see a NAW, Ant, Jaden, Kyle, and KAT lineup where they just switch everything on defense. The half step Irving and Doncic are getting off of screens is killing the defense.

We've had multiple chances to build double digit leads and let them back into the game every time. I hate it when we should be separating, but let them hang around.

Very embarrassing defensive discipline by Anthony Edwards.

Dallas's bigs are doing great and they are killing the offensive glass tonight.
