Man, if BWill ever develops a midrange game he’s gonna be trouble.

Pretty close at halftime, and I’m not sure how, the way the Mavs are shooting. Flagg, Thompson, Williams and especially PJW played pretty well.

They're not good without AD and Kyrie but that was a somewhat entertaining half.
Way too much Cooper Flagg standing in the corner in the half court. I think if they use him as the pick guy, he can get some stuff going downhill. That is my only complaint. He looked great in transition.

Yeah, for all the complaints of him being too passive (and I agree, to an extent), he seems to be pretty aggressive once he gets going. I agree that they should make more of an effort to set him up in comfortable ways.

Honestly, the guy they miss the most might be Lively, imo. Such a shame that he’s having to miss this stretch because he had gotten off to such a dominant start.

The Mavs have to figure out how to keep from Gafford having to switch on those screens if they’re going to have a good defense. Every time he switches, the opponent gets an easy pull-up. Every time Christie wars through, Gafford is helpful at the rim

There’s so much to like about Christie’s game.

Weird lineup in the game with Caleb Martin and Naji.

Saadiq Bey looks like he's finally back. Do it Nico!

Dlo has played hard tonight. Fairly effective on defense and he has created some nice looks for himself and others, but he’s having a rough, rough shooting night.

Williams with the middy step back!!!
RE: Game 8: New Orleans Pelicans (1-6) vs. Dallas Mavericks (2-5) | 7:30pm CST - KillerLeft - 11-05-2025
Flagg with the effective double team and then going coast to coast!
RE: Game 8: New Orleans Pelicans (1-6) vs. Dallas Mavericks (2-5) | 7:30pm CST - KillerLeft - 11-05-2025
Flagg was doing well during this stretch, until he decided to drive the lane 1 on 2. Still, good stuff from him!
RE: Game 8: New Orleans Pelicans (1-6) vs. Dallas Mavericks (2-5) | 7:30pm CST - RoyTarpleysGhost - 11-05-2025
Finally get Naji and Martin out of the game and Hardy comes in. Always a bum on the court.

Brandon Williams resembles Dwight Howard in the face, in my opinion.

Man, if they’re going to put Alvarado on Flagg, send his ass to the post!
RE: Game 8: New Orleans Pelicans (1-6) vs. Dallas Mavericks (2-5) | 7:30pm CST - RoyTarpleysGhost - 11-05-2025
Can we trade for Alvarado?

He’s looking good tonight for sure.

Gafford can’t even stay in front of Queen. He’s still not right, I don’t think.

Rough stretch. Really bad turnover from DLo.
