Anyone else know what Brad's doing? Why is Nader out there? Jaylen die or something?

Sorry but if you want guys like Rozier, Nader, Ojeleye, Theis etc. to score then you need an uptempo backup point guard.
Marcus Smart give me the ball in the post doesn’t cut it.

He's fine if he keeps his shots low, but he's killing the offense playing like this.

Right, I forgot to add Horford too. Horford, Kyrie and Jaylen all sit together for 9+ minutes.

It’s the Mavs and they were up 15. If there was ever a time to experiment

I'm sorry but you can't slump harder than being the worst shooter of all time.
Smart is killing the team as the linchpin of second unit. I really don’t know what they do. You just can’t keep running him out there without Kyrie on the floor.
Nader looks like he wasn’t ready to play. That’s a problem.
We need another wing scorer.

Me too. He is a player you have to make plays for him and he is useful that way but if you allow him to make decisions he will make one stupid one after another. Basically he needs a smart play-maker playing alongside him at all times.

I’m mean, the Mavs may suck, but they’re playing their starters and we’re giving Abdel Nader minutes with under six minutes in the 2nd.
Not much of a surprise a lead shrinks.
Can’t keep doing this and letting crap teams hang around just so you can give Kyrie and Al two extra minutes of rest.

Next evolution for this team is to replace Terry with a competent shooter who can come off the bench for 15-20 and hit a shot. During the regular season we can get by but Smart and Terry playing together in the backcourt...it's just too much. It doesn't work.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

This bench unit is so damn inconsistent. One game they hit a ton of threes and play great like the GS game, the next they effing suck like this one.
Game should've been over by now.

Okay 4 point game, please Brad just don't play Smart the rest of the game.
Larkin is at this point clearly a better player than Smart is.

Smart leading the team in shot attempts is a disaster

It’s the regular season against a weak opponent, these are the times you tinker with new lineups

This comeback from the Mavs is on CBS. Kept KI and Jaylen out too long and kept the offense stagnant. I thought he didn't want the team to dig a hole? It has to start with him.

Why is Jaylen allergic to free throws?
