Bridges is not bulky, so if someone is going to play bully ball, that's where you can get him.

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

Literally no one. This style of NBA game needs ball movement to get deep in the playoffs and win a championship.

Luka allows? Cmon man Luka was great the first two games. Brunson’s turribleness those first 2 was his own doing.

Fact suns have played this poorly and only down 7, not awful position if they can right the ship

Except that whole staying healthy and playing basketball thing. Minor stuff. Sorry. Continue your Raptor giddyness, it's well deserved and more importantly well timed in a thread about 2 Western teams in the playoffs.

Offensively mavs are actually worse than in the first two games so Luka's teammates being supposedly more involved has no impact at all.
It's more CP's turnovers and mavs overall defense that is totally different in this game.
This said, Mavs won't win with Luka shooting like that

Probably why OG and his team is watching this on his couch instead of playing out there.

Stop kidding yourself as if Luka wouldn’t give him the works too.

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

this time he got quite a bit of rest in the 2nd. suns may regret being down so much.

I didn't say Luka wasn't great. In fact he was just about unbelievable.

However pretty clear Brunson needs the ball to create for himself to be effective.

Is an extension cord an acceptable substitute?

Y’all know how many times we’ve seen this? You’re gunna have to play 49 minutes to beat us. I’d be pretty worried it’s only a 7 point game with the Suns playing the way they are.

Post #155 » by **og15** » Sat May 7, 2022 2:43 am

Mavs need to try and keep a decent lead going into the half. While possible, it is unlikely they get the same turnover differential (0-8) in the 2nd half

He still has the ball most of the time and is on pace to average more shots than in the past two games. Are you guys even watching the game? Or just like to complain?
