His job is also make shoots wiiiiiiiiide open...he, Powell and KP on the court in the same time were been offensively atrocious.

DFS has 18points on 90minutes of play. Bullock deserves his minutes.

DFS shot terribly but still impacted the game positively in so many other areas. Powell is the one that definitely needs some minutes cut. I would much prefer his 25 minutes today be cut to 10 minutes (or even less) and split the 15+ minutes between Maxi and Bullock.

I like Powell but he's not a starter and should primarily be used as an energy big off the bench.

Can they just drop Powell out from starting 5? The spacing once again was horrible. Dallas was lucky that Houston was not good.

Give me this 5:

Luka
THJ
Bullock
DFS
KP

KP at the PF position is clearly not working while Powell without the lobs is absolutely useless.

KP looks done. Ben Simmons or Kyrie Irving might be more useful at this point. Chasing Jokic in 2023 is a must now that they need to move on from KP.

Bullock looks good, Sterling Brown bad and I cannot see how Green will get meaningful minutes in this team, he should play in G-league instead.

KP started the season in the worse possible way, totally ineffective in offense and injury after only 3 games.

Luka is shooting bad, but something is wrong in Mavs offense too. Spacing is far worse, Luka taking mostly very difficult shots.

Mavs are having too big problems with those bad teams. We will see what happens, when they play better opponents.

Also Luka should post more.


Bullock is everything we hoped Jrich would be. I also don't understand why it took Kidd this long to figure it out. Well, at least i hope he did..

Considering 28% from deep for the Mavs, and 41% for the Rox, I'm glad it's a win.
I watched the game in replay, other than bricking endlessly, it was fine, not their best game, but they also didn't look very pressured.
KP isn't hitting his shots, but it'll balance, he took good shots, Powell is lost in this offense, if that's what you're going to use him for trade him, you saw what Eric Gordon is capable of.

Luka played a decent defense in those games.

Defense has improved a lot in general, and Luka is playing good defense, KP is also protecting the rim very well.
