A little different to start the game. Dallas showing grit and hitting some shots. Suns missing easy 5 ft out shots. Ultimately, Mavs will run out of gas mid 3rd into 4th most likely.

Luka is shredding "DPOY" Mikal Bridges.

If he can keep this up it opens it up for the rest of the team to have easier scoring opportunities

Luka is a tank but it takes a lot of energy to play bully ball in the paint. Not sure if he can do it all game long.

Is the "smoke" gun smoke or chimney smoke?

Luka always gets tired out in the 4th quarter, I hope tonight's 4th quarter is an exception

Who would have thought mavs would perform better when luka allows teammates to be involved more.

Mavs came out and are executing a lot better. Suns look awful in just about every way

Seems like Luka changes his form when he takes a step back three.

I want JB back. Why is Kidd playing him so little. If he can play LD all the time, he can play JB more too.
