Good for Maxi..
but... Theon Pinson on the last play?
Really Kidd?

Great game
He literally draws up the same play every single time. EVERY. TIME.
You would think after he's gotten scouted he'd change up, but nope.
Now Kidd is going to act like he did everything right

Yep.. it was a play at the moment.
not a drawn up play by Kidd.

Kyrie makes a significant difference.
AD is truly living up to his face. He just has that stupid look.
Theo Pinson in for Christian Wood.
With 6 seconds to go.
This sticks out to me as 1Dl0tic coaching.

It was nice of a AD to double in the paint with a two point lead to give Maxi the wide open three. And there are really fans (not here) that think that bum is better than Dirk.
Davis blew the game for them. He didn't stay with Maxi throughout the play, and his missed FT didn't help neither. Great pass by Kyrie. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.
In a game like this, the win is the important thing.
But, Mavs were so incredibly lucky. Arguably most crucial game up to now and Lakers shot 25 % from three and 61 % from free throw line. Mavs almost 50 % from three. Mavs pick and roll defense and rebounding was beyond horrible.

Davis just threw it away, but Maxi made an incredible shot off of an amazing pass by Kyrie.
Omg. I prayed hard for this W
This is why this board might die. I come here as always, this time to enjoy a fun win. What do I see? Mavs fans more interested in trashing their coach and trying to prove their point than anything else.
This board absolutely always has someone identified that you hate and spend ridiculous effort offering your proof that your points are correct.
Sometimes apologies show up on the board which I like. But I guess discussions work better if we both have a scapegoat and argue how right we are.
Sorry this really irritated the fire out of me.

I was actually depressed at how far Maxi is from playing his best. Maybe this will light a fire under him. A scary memory: last time Maxi had a game winner he got hurt like the next game.

Yep. It’s becoming unbearable. Not sure if I’m gonna stick.

Maxi has around 30 games per season where he is at his best. Rest of games he is either injured, recovering from injury or in a slump. Mavs were lucky they got his best version in last year playoffs.

I saw how hyped he got after the game and I immiediately hoped this will be the spark that gives him his mojo back. Dude was integral tonight.

I feel you on that broesph. For what it's worth I was screaming my heart out when Maxi hit it and went straight to copy pasting his name everywhere.
One thing I liked tonight, Wood played an incredibly good all around game. He did have a really awful stretch in the mid 4th, but he stuck with it.
Love Maxi and hate the Lakers, so no matter what, that was satisfying..

Come on guys! This is a discussion board. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. We don't need to agree with each other. If I don't agree with someone I just go on. I "like" some of those that I agree with and give thoughtful consideration to others. That's the way of life.
There are still some really good posters on here with in depth knowledge of basketball and the Mavs. They deserve to have their say--just as you do. Sometimes I agree with you. Sometimes I don't.
There are things about the Mavs I don't like. Sometimes I voice them. I appreciate your comments...and I'd hate to see you, or anyone leave. You can make a difference just by joining the discussions with thoughtful, informed comments. Or...totally uninformed. Heck!...I'm just a fan. I never played beyond high school. Now I'm just a driveway point guard--but--it is a big driveway...
