Glad you feel that way, he's iffy to me.

Dallas still winning the rebound battle 22-17, one of Kidd’s keys to the game.
Dallas with only 5 turnovers - pretty big reversal from game 1.
OKC shooting well, but only 1 offensive rebound.
Dallas leading free throws attempted 7-6.

PJ is a legit 3rd option tbh.

first time seeing this as well, 2nd weirdest injury since Carl Landry implanted his teeth on Dirk's arms

So far the Keys:
Luka---Check (18 points)
TO--Check (5)
Rebounds---Check (+5)
FT --Check (only 6 allowed)
Keep it up second half

Kyrie still really quiet.
RE: GAME 2 2024 Playoffs: Dallas Mavericks (0-1) vs. Oklahoma City Thunder (1-0) - ThisIStheYear - 05-09-2024
It may be Dwight Powell time.

Having another big man who could actually step in for some stretches would be huge (ex: Mahinmi on the 2011 team)
Agreed! I have been banging the drum for this too. My pick for an easily gotten target is Jericho Sims. He does everything that Lively does but is a better perimeter defender and rebounder. At worst, he is someone that could be brought into the game if Lively/Gafford aren't playing well or get into foul trouble.

Dallas has to continue to make shots. The Thunder is not going away. If they do, they can even it. It's Kyrie's time to shine now.

Maybe not. Seeing Gaff was back on the bench and even clapping. Maybe a dinger dislocation they put back in place. Hopefully. They need him.

He's always gonna have mashed up fingers. He's a violent dunker.

RE: GAME 2 2024 Playoffs: Dallas Mavericks (0-1) vs. Oklahoma City Thunder (1-0) - RGP1981 - 05-09-2024
If only Exum, Green, THJ could make timely buckets like Aaron Wiggins...
RE: GAME 2 2024 Playoffs: Dallas Mavericks (0-1) vs. Oklahoma City Thunder (1-0) - Luka77 - 05-09-2024
Who the F is Aaron Wiggins? Can we put a body on him?
RE: GAME 2 2024 Playoffs: Dallas Mavericks (0-1) vs. Oklahoma City Thunder (1-0) - ThisIStheYear - 05-09-2024
Luka needs to show back up. He’s been invisible since the first quarter.

Perhaps, this is a case of the grass looking greener on the other... but if he plays as he has in these 2 games, I think he could be a legit 3rd-4th option on the Mavs along with PJ.
Kyrie, Wiggins, Luka, PJ, Lively/Gaff

I thought we’d gotten past the need to hit a bunch of shots in order to win. But defense just isn’t working tonight.
Is OKC a talented offensive team? Yes. But Dallas needs to slow them down.
