The D-League call up Theodore Cruzoe will dress for tonight's game on the Dallas side because of injuries.

I'm going to be pretty bummed if we manage to lose this game given the situation.

Just awful. Joffrey and Kanter shouldn't play together

Grant drove and didn't fall down!!! He might have even scored. I don't remember.

Jerami grant is an awful defender. That trade was horrible.

Our players may suck, but by god we will make sure they are young.

Earlier, Kanter got subbed off and slammed the bench with his hand. Grabbed his wrist immediately after. Got looked at by training staff then was taken down to the rooms. Now there's talk of x-rays.

That was a pretty mediocre first half.

Everybody is missing everything & all the turnovers. Robes is scared to death to shoot now. Russ isn't really setting anybody else up. Mavs playing the dumbest lineups possible & making everything.

They hit at least 4 bull threes

This game isn't that critical that he needed to react like that. Kanter has a short fuse. I've seen it several times.

I missed the 1st half. Aside from the BS threes, what the hell is going on? The Mavs are playing Harrison Barnes, Andrew Bogut, and a bunch of D-Leaguers. How in the hell are we losing to them? They don't have 80% of their top 5 scorers.

He was acting like 4 year old that whole sequence. Guess we'll get to test pils theory.

Russ has no assists so no easy baskets. Grant can't guard anyone. The bench was godawful, enes couldn't make anything. We're giving up easy shots and when we don't they just bomb threes that somehow go in. Actually don't feel too bad about the prospects though, they're gonna lose their legs down the stretch.

We are just inexplicably bad sometimes. The complete lack of a plan B when Westbrook is off kills us...Which is what happens when you pass the ball so little and have so little structure outside of Russell's insane usage rates.

Edit: And I don't want to get started on the defence situation
