OKC injury report has: SGA out (ankle), Roby out, Vit Krejci out (ankle)
Last minute on vacation post, but it’s still a must win game.
AAC looks super empty unfortunately.
This game is basically shaping up to be OKC vs the Dallas Luka's. He's basically been doing absolutely everything on the offensive end. Brunson has largely been non-existent besides a lone turnover.
OKC beating the Mavs might light a fire under the FO to make a trade.
Luka really gets so beat up out there how is that not a call.
OKC is not scared...making every three. This could be their night!

The defense is like night and day with RB/Frank/Green/Chriss vs the starters.
Refs basically letting OKC do whatever they want to Luka. One of the few times I think Luka's been justified in his incessant complaining to the refs.

He fouled Dort on the layup he powered though Luka which didn't get called so it cuts both ways.

Can't say I agree at all.
Powell's inability to defend without fouling is killing this team with KP out.
Defense sagging off Josh and I'm yelling at the TV for him to shoot and then he pulls the trigger on that corner 3 and misses by a mile.

I've been screaming too every time the defense goes under on the screen for him to rise up and shoot. I don't even care if he airballs it. He has to learn how to do it for him to survive in today's NBA.
Green locking down OKC's perimeter game. Play him for the remaining 29 minutes.
How is that not a foul when the guy backs up into a guy midair.
Chriss air balling an alley-oop is something else.
These comic mini movies were cool like 5 years ago but they're starting to become super cringe. Same with those detached head bits where they just paste the players faces over well known movie/TV scenes because the creative department can't think of anything good on their own.
Mavs need to be careful with DFS minutes. Just going with the eyetest he hasn´t been as good in the last couple of games. A little bit overplayed. Maybe tired. Finding another bigger wing to give him (and Maxi) some rest should be the priority if they make a deadline deal.

He can rest on the 7th day.
