Mavs stuck in SAC for 3 days...
I guess there are worse places to be. Spend this road time continuing to bond and use the mini-break to keep tweaking up the defense.

I’m kind of glad they’re in Sacramento and not someplace distracting, like LA or Vegas. Maybe they’ll get a good practice in before Friday.

I have to be honest. I don't have cable and couldn't watch the game last night - was following the ESPN play-by-play feed. Watched the highlights later (Pandahank). If I had watched the game in real time, I likely would have needed Depends in the first half watching Luka grimace. They took a huge gamble playing him. It was necessary and had a fantastic result, but just imagine if things would have gone south.

Most important thing is getting the Achilles to calm down until Friday. If this thing lingers it’ll scare me to death on every jump or quick turn. KD in the playoffs for the Warriors is the worst example.
I think the NBA’s new officiating emphasis allowing more physical play is helping the Mavs. It wouldn’t have pre trade but Gaff and PJ are pretty physical, and Luka is the most physical point guard in the NBA. It probably won’t go over well with Luka, but if it’s officiated consistently on both sides, let them play.

This is fairly reliable. If it does stop you can usually wait it out...or reload the page. If it takes too long just go back to the starting page. In the event none of that works...try:

Some of these have ads. In that case you may have to click through several times to get to the actual game. You may want to install Adblock plus.
I have tried to use League Pass, only to find out that I can watch only about 1/3, or less, of the games because I'm in Texas. That means, to them, I am in the local viewing area for the spurs, rockets, and Mavs, which, being out in the boondocks--I am not!
I also have youtube TV, which is better than league Pass, but still says the same!
So...I tired of throwing money at them and just watch on those that I listed...and more in the case of a catastrophe.
I know what you mean about the Depends...
Not sposed to post those links here, right?

We had a couple of scares from NBA bots threatening to wipe the site cause of these links.
I wouldn't even PM them. But you can get creative and speak in code so to speak.
To sail the high seas one has to learn the jargon.

It definitely helps us. Luka has not complained to the refs at all in the last 4-5 games. I think this is the longest stretch of his career and he deserves some major credit for keeping his composure and not being such a baby
