RS 21/22 - Mavs vs Pels (Mon. 8:30PM EST)

[Maverick41]

KP at center with Luka and Brunson sharing the ballhandling duties is definitely our best line-up. At least offensively.

I think so as well. Kidd played that lineup with DFS & Bullock at the wings to supplement the defense for a good stretch of the 4th last game. I want to see more of that lineup.

[leolozon]

The team is winning by 12 and Luka is -6...

DFS and Powell -1.

EDIT They finished strong.

[Maverick41]

I believe I saw a stat somewhere that the Brunson + Frank combo has one of highest +/- in the league whenever they're on the court together. This game showed it again.

Our starting lineup has it's best +/- when Brunson is in it as well. Luka closed the game well and has the best stats but imo Brunson was the MVP of this game.

Shoudl have just kept the bench in. A 20 pt lead has become 8 in 4 minutes.

True. Guess Kidd wanted see some more Luka + KP mins. Worked out in the end.

I don't know if Brunson should be in the starting lineup, but I would take him and Bullock over Powell and DFS.

If you move Brunson to the starting lineup, it could be wise to move THJ to the bench.

I don't know if Frank is fool's gold, but I wouldn't mind him in the starting lineup if he keeps shooting 3s like that.

I'd be curious to also see Luka + Frank minutes. Frank being the full court point-guard that can get the ball up faster and pressure the defense.

Yeah our bench is our biggest strength so far this season and JB has been great. He should start over Powell.

The bench might suffer but I like the fast starts more.

This is because Powell is on the bench and KP can play 5, which is the best for this team when they can just stretch the floor. It gives them a lot more chances to create plus defense is better with Bullock and Luka mostly playing at the 4.

But yeah, Frank and Brunson have both been amazing so far.

7-3 but this team just feels so unmotivated to me and aren't fun to watch right now.

JB +26, he gonna get payed. Frank +24, probably wonders if he signed for too little. Timmy 80% from 3, nice af.

Parts of the game was good. Got a bit pissed when we almost dropped a 19pt lead because of overcomplicated things on offense. Would probably been better to given the bench guys some run when up that much cause starters didnt do a good job at the time

[Pinkyring]

Its clear Bullock is the best wing on this team outside thj, brown has been awful so Bullock should get all his minutes or some of dorians who's been bad as well. No reason dfs should be at 32m and Bullock at 20m

I didn't say iirc i said all our wings suck which is still true but Bullock is the best of that crew

The next 5 games should be telling : Bulls, Suns (2), Nuggets

Let's see how the team responds. The starting lineup is certainly lacking and Kidd has the 7-3 excuse to not try another combination.

Yeah those team will probably kill us in the paint.

We are good at beating bad teams this year.

at least we have that going for us this year

[41Dirk41]

Good W against a bad team...7-3 is great.

Bullock played great.

DFS, Powell and Brown are trash. I don't know if is possible trade them in some way.

[arkuo]

THJ needs to come off the bench.

C- Porzingis
PF - DFS
SF - Bullock
SG - Doncic
PG - Brunson

That's a disruptive starting lineup
