Much better defense in the 3rd. Not overreacting with help and just letting the switch happen. Karl loved seeing Dallas go with 3 guards I'm sure, ha ha. The switches are working very well with the the 3 guard lineup.

Could it be another J Kidd mistake in this one? Carlisle rolling with Felton, Harris, and DWill in return. :lol:

That wasn't a foul on DMC! on DC if anything.

Omri guarding Dirk, Collison on Felton...and we switch a ball screen...Dirk thrives on shooting over smaller players...especially guards...that's a lay up to him

Defense has looked good since the 2nd quarter, but especially the 3rd. Let's see if we can close out this win without drama.

Haha what is Carlisle doing? Keep feeding DMC down low!

Well, the season ain't over yet! Must win and got one. A lot of good adjustments in the 2nd half.

I guess Carlisle was on our thread during halftime. Stole my idea !

I wonder if Wes Matthews feels Carlisle had good intentions assigning him to guard Cousins down the stretch?

We came out with great effort on the defensive end. Great coaching thru out. Took advantage of the mismatches and played like we should vs a good team. Was hoping for a triple double from Rondo vs DAL but will take the win gladly. Great to see Seth getting more minutes.

Great pace offensively. Opportunistic in our running. Patient offensively. We have a lot of guys who can contribute and Karl did a great job today in playing with combinations and changing them when they've reached their peak. Defensively, we did a great job overall. Cousins really is our anchor

Post game Karl hinted at Bellinelli's sickness tonight is why Curry saw an increase in minutes.

I was really hoping to hear "yeah (Darth Vader breathing....) The kid is lighting it up and deserves a bigger role (Darth Vader breathing)"

Really good to see them close out the game as we should w/o being careless. Good game overall.

Curry eating into them Belinelli minutes, and I can't hate on that. Belinelli has to earn my confidence again after his play this season

Nice win guys. Was going to be a tough night for us regardless with Boogie there, but would have been nice to make a couple open shots.

Hilarious end-game where Rick just said screw it and played 5 guys who can't dunk. Boogie seemed to almost feel bad just dominating down low. It looked like when I play with my son and his friends out there.

Interesting to see that Karl seemed to want to protect WCS by essentially not playing him at all. Was he afraid trying to deal with Dirk was going to hurt his confidence? Or did he just realize WCS simply wasn't going to be able to guard him so why not get some better offensive players on the floor? Was a little odd to say the least.

And Rondo looked good. Obviously wasn't a fit for us, but he's certainly showing in Sacramento that rumors of his demise were a tad premature.

He hasn't played him consistently all year which has been pretty frustrating to me. He's looked really good when he has played, he gets in some foul trouble pretty often but that's what comes with being a defensive rookie, he'll learn to cut down on that. I think he probably could have done a decent job on Dirk too with his length but apparently Karl really just doesn't like playing rookies much.

^^ To me he just needs to be more assertive. Like he rebounds & just looks to pass it. I'd love to see him try to throw down a monster put back or something. He's just like doing his little role, & while he's looked solid at it so far, i think this guy can be a game-changing role player.

He needs like some KG tutoring lol. Let him switch out on the pick n roll & slap the floor, bark, let ppl know how good he is defensively. Toss a shot out of bounds & let em know about it. Throw down the opp & hang on the rim. -- He has the ability to the igniter & he's just not as assertive as he needs to be.

-- & Yooooo McLemore kills me. IDK how you guys watched him for 3 years now. This dude straight up glidesss all over the floor. & Idk if I seen him dunk it once yet this season. Why does he try to be all finese?? Get me so mad. Like mannnnn, just jump over that man lol. He's gonna have his head over the rim, & try to twist & turn finesely lay it up lol. Man up Ben.

Sac's now what 6-4 when DMC plays? If they can get these dudes to be more assertive, they're gonna be fine.

Goal for December .. Get to 2016 at .500. Start Fresh in Jan at 16-16 & be ready to make moves.

I get you. I think with WCS. It's typical rookie overthinking, he doesn't want to make a mistake. I would definitely like him to be more assertive every now and then. He has some tools we've yet to see. He'll be fine though. McLemore on the other hand....Ben, Ben, Ben. He's highly frustrating to watch. This kid wants no part of ball handling whatsoever. I don't think he even uses the 50% off the athleticism he has. I kept hearing about how the benching did this and did that. He looks like the same Ben to me, maybe slightly more improved. I just don't see a guy who plays with any confidence and I don't know what can be done to wake him up.

I am pleased with this game because we shot 30 threes. Although ideally 14 of those attempts aren't coming from Rondo and Cousins. Oh, and Seth played.

Should be a good game Thursday. How into this team am I that I'm legitimately thinking of being in attendance? If this is a home game for us I'm assuming there will be another game on the road in a non-partial venue
