Bazemore playing so poorly he is being benched for Herzonja

Hezonja was playing so bad we have to bring Bazemore back in with 4 fouls.

I'd prefer Turner back over Baze... And I couldn't stand Turner.

Actually, the reason Mavs are getting outside shots off picks is because we aren't showing with our big man. Hezonja is chasing Doncic around picks. He has no chance of defending those outside shots.

We are totally out of sync right now and are only down by 9. Problem is, I don't see how we are going to get in sync. We lost a third of our firepower, and our defense is awful.

In all honesty I would have put in Little to get him more game experience. I would prefer to move on from both Bazemore and Hezonja. They just haven't fit in

I wouldn't mind Turner back on the vet minimum. His passing would help the bench unit(especially Simons) and he could be a 3rd string sf as well

Simons needs to have one of his good games to make up for CJ. We also need Tolliver and Trent to hit some open shots

Mavs should put their best defender on Melo. He's the only scorer we have on the floor and he's being defended like a third wheel.

I don't think that was even a foul. Two guy got tangled and one guy decides to flop. How's that a foul?

They are going to lose this challenge. It was a bad call because the offensive foul was missed. It's not reversible.

I hope CJ's injury isn't serious.
