I'd imagine Maxi plays. Hopefully without bricking his shots.

I just hope they match the energy from yesterday, it'd be great to see it carry over. THJ is due a random big scoring game...hopefully it's here.

Solo 6th...... for now

Nurk blowing a late layup was huge

Anyone know if Davis will be limited to 15 first half minutes again? That may decide the game if so

Quote from a reporter who writes for the Lakers.

"We’ll see if Davis gets a small extension to his minutes limit for Saturday’s game, which will depend upon how he responds to Thursday’s action."

[Mavrelous]

Any references for 2011 are greatly welcomed Dirk, keep 'em coming.

[BlueSan]

Expect him to play 20 to 25 minutes. Porzingis not listed on an injury report? That one is strange. I like it, but it is strange

[ejs78]

Not saying KP will play or how much time he'll miss because I'm not a doctor but in 2017 he said this after rolling an ankle and missed 2 games. Clearly his body is also a little different now

And lizard has missed 160+ games since.

[ejs78]

So we're comparing ankles to something torn now?

If I'm not mistaken lizard can grow back body parts.

[BlueSan]

Technically when an ankle is sprained it is also "torn" meaning that tissue is damaged. It is just about what extent of the tissue we are talking about

Touché

Mavs could potentially be without 3 of their usual starters. Sux big time..

I'm not usually the negative one.
But is missing Richardson realy a handicap ?

Missing Richardson as starter no, but someone will have to play with bench unit, if Brunson starts. Richardson is still better than Burke&co. Mavs are playing with very short rotation, so potentially missing 3 starters is a problem.

I wish Rick would throw rookies into the fire sometimes. Start Green or Hinton for Jrich and and hope for the best.
I mean i get it....you're fighting for the 6th spot. But geting rookies some real play time will be good for Mavs long term future.

[Mavrelous]

We've seen enough of Green in the COVID stretch, he's nowhere near ready to contribute.

Yea I don't disagree. He wasnt very good.
But not playing him doesn't help his development.
Especially now that the G league is done for the year.
Im not saying give him or any other rookie 20+minutes. Just keep them involved in the rotation and see what you have .

[Mavrelous]

The last games have been extremely tight, RC didn't get a chance, in a comfortable game he may give them minutes, the team right now just isn't good or deep enough to build comfortable leads.
