Got to get Frank out of there. Only Bertans, Maxi and Spencer should come off the bench. This is an elimination game, we shouldn't go 9 or 10 deep.

Again, Luka needs to go up stronger and force the refs to have the blow the whistle.
And he needs to get back on defense. I know it sucks not getting the calls but jogging back on D vs these Warriors is always going to be a recipe for disaster.

the score reflect how much help Luka get from the supporting cast. In the Finals, Dirk playing through flu, the score is really close. GSW put effort in paint defense. The Mavs has to answer. Driving one on three in paint is no answer. It's 5 on 5 on court. Kidd hold the team back by being outsmarted.

I don't get why Kidd went back to Frank. It never worked in this series. He's so pig headed, just like starting Powell. (Frank did hit two 3s, but it's not sustainable.)
Luka has a bad attitude out there. Maybe he should do some yoga after doing cardio this summer.

Maybe we're wrong. Frank now has 2 3s out there. Haha.

Luka is gassed, until we doesn't work on his body he will never win a title. Never.
Embarassing first half.

I think this is the worst so called "defense" I've ever seen Luka play. Outright embarrassing body-language. I thought he played pretty decent defense all year but this is just embarrassing.

Only Dinwiddie and Maxi have shown up so far. Particularly Dinwiddie who is red hot out there.
Everyone else needs to show up. I'm sure hoping Luka steps up in the 2nd half because this is looking like the worst game of his career right now.

It's about time to do something Kerr does not expect. I think it's about time Marquis Chris's is getting a go. The paint defense is awful. Brunson has to step up while Luka needs rest to heal and stay calm

The red will not be kind in homecourt

This game reminds me when Slovenia played Australia and Luka was dead in that game. He's playing very similar tonight. He just doesn't have any legs anymore. Was a good run though, great season for the team.

Luka was injured in 4th quarter last game.

Dinwiddie is the perfect 6man. Keep him.
Brunson is the worst guy to pairing with Luka, i'm sorry but he have to trade him.

Dirk performed much better playing through pains.

In attacking from top of the key doesn't work, the Mavs could make the same adjustments against Pheonix. Do Kidd learn at all?

It's good timing getting Dinwiddie and Maxi in shape, tho. Kinda ugly allowing 70 in a half.
