—Derrick Lively II, doubtlessly parroting what he hears from the rest of the Mavs bench, coaches and players alike, all of whom believe in 6th nan Timothy Hardaway Jr.

And it has really worked out well so far Smile
Mavs average 11tov per game. They had 13 in the first half. They are 4/18 from 3. Feels like all misses were contested 3s early in the shot clock.

They had an abnormally hot shooting game against OKC and thought they could easily replicate that 2 days later.
Luka is forcing the ball to Gafford too much, imo.

Apparently the gameplan is 20pts/20reb for Gafford. Only explanation for the terrible shot selection. More rebounding opportunities for Gafford. More putbacks.
Is everyone gonna kill Kyrie for that pull-up 3, or do we only hate it when it’s THJ and Luka?
WOW GAFFORD!!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE MORE KYRIE GREEN AND PJ

WAY WAY LESS OF LUKA AWFUL 3S!

When only 1 of your 10 shots is bad, you get some leeway
The man can shoot a free throw. I like that.
Luka just throwing it away.

Dude needs to have a long sit. It's crazy to me how awful he's playing right now.
Luka's not taking the game seriously.

Deni for THJ+FRP in the off-season.
Book it.
The shot-missing doesn’t bother me. Some games are like that.

What bothers me are the turnovers. Just some really bone-headed, butterfingered plays out there.

I think some of that is mixing new guys in, but to your point, some of it is just lazy play. And I agree, it is annoying.

Shot selection is the issue. Not shot making.
Why is PJ on the bench AGAIN
The Mavs special. Gafford cannot defend but always gets the rebound. Maxi forces three misses in a row but cannot get the rebound.
It feels like the lineup where Luka is the second biggest guy on the floor is not working against this Washington group tonight.

I kind of wish Washington or Jones Jr was in the game at all times.
This is a 5 point game but feels like a 20 point deficit.
I just don't get it. Why are they forcing so many shots early in the shot clock?
This is frustrating to watch. It's like they don't give a sht
THJ with a horrible 3 (What a surprise)

DJJ and PJ refuse to grab the board
