I'm not surprised. Tatum was straight trash vs Warriors.

Why can't they just let Jrue and White handle the ball? Tatum has been bad with the ball since the 1st.

Meanwhile not inserting KP with this league shrinking is borderline Asinine. I've always hated this coach and now you see why.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

This is really on JT and to some extent JB as well for bringing the Mavs into this game. Turnovers, bricked 3’s. **** wake up you two

I wish they’d flash JT to the free throw line or mid post… everything is starting from So Far Out, they’re getting low % looks

On Tatum's defense, the Mavs focus on him a lot.

Never understand how this team always comes out lethargic every time to start the 3rd quarter

I'm shocked and disappointed right now, thinking does he have an injury? Is that tape on his right wrist? I mean, I don't know what to think of this game from him. Win or lose, he's going to get annihilated in the media tomorrow if he doesn't have a complete turnaround tonight.
