MavsBoard

Like Frank, Wright giveth and Wright taketh.

Big point to start the 4th.  Mavs bench was good in the first half.  A lot of ask for relatively unproven guys in the fourth.

Even the rockets are switching everything. I wonder if Luka will be allowed to run even one more pick and roll during a meaningful moment for the rest of his career. They really need to figure out easy ways to get Wood into scoring positions after those switches. The absence of that in their plan is what results in nonstop perimeter Luka ball.

This team is so not fun to watch.  Not sure why I do it all the time

amazing this team somehow has a payroll of 166 million this year

The kids on the rockets moving the ball better than WCF Mavericks.

Green has some of the ugliest misses and then craziest finishes.

Wish the NBA had hockey assists, we'd have to be among the worst teams in the league in that category.

Bertans is a fast break monster.

.And a corner three monster.

I wish they did, too, because I bet if that was tracked as a statistic Luka would give the ball up earlier more often.

Rim protector!

Smith is so nice.

Again.

Luka is going to play the entire second half to maybe beat the Rockets, isn’t he…

He might get 24 minutes but it's hard to say he played every minute.  He's the reason the Rockets got back into this one.

Luka 47 points

Rest of the team plus me 58 points

Maybe implement the triangle offense during the last 5 minutes of every game.

The more I watch nights like this, the more I blame the (lack of an) offensive system.

So now the finale…late possession contested threes and giving up easy baskets…buckle up

THJ has been trash.  To be fair to him, he usually lights up the Rockets.

At this point, the entire world knows that teams are going to switch every screen on Luka. Surely, there is a better solution than allowing him to go one on one for damn near the entire game.
