Worst part is we are on track for 100+ with pretty good %'s. good amount of FTA's. good rebounding, good assist numbers and low turn overs but the Mavs are just on fire.


This describes our circumstance perfectly, I'm proud of the players tonight.

The whole starting lineup was out a good bit of the second half. MKG splits most of his minutes when Hinder-son is moved to SF[/quote][/quote]

Good point. Either way its sad. I honestly think that Gilchrist is the best player on the team right now as we speak. But Dunlap being a college coach ( yes I know he was an assistant under Karl in Denver ) tends to favor veterans. Reminds me of Larry Brown. Gilchrist had a nice 1st quarter only to get subbed out for 9 minutes. Irritating.

MKG is going to get his minutes. its a long season. no major harm in dunlap taking his time with him. we arent fighting for a playoff spot. dunlap will probably slowly increase his minutes over the next month.

last thing i want to see is mkg getting run into the ground and injured

he's only 19. no point in rushing him into minutes that established vets can't handle

Statistically, it appears as if MKG is a superstar when Hendo is on the bench 8-)

...and most definitely the 'Cats biggest difference maker based on his +/- stats

Now, you aren't by any chance the same Bence from the MixMakers forums, aren't you? I found out that it is a common Hungarian name with a quick google, but I just had to ask.

Anyway, welcome to the board.


Hi!

Nope, I'm not that guy, sorry :)

It wasn't that common when I was born, but nowadays one of the most frequent names, yep.

I couldn't catch the Mavs game, but from stats and videos, MKG was a beast on the defensive end. Someone said Dunlap should give him extended mins, but I'm with the other side in this: slowly increase his minutes over the next month. I'm totally fine with him getting 35 mins in december, but for now 25 is all he need.

From the first 10 matches, 4W was a dream for me (G3 @Suns, G5 Wiz, G6 @Min, G10 Raps), now the guys get one unexpected, and lost one highly expected. Good enough for me.
