An abomination of a game. Maybe the worst player on the court today.

A lot of hope based on the first half tonight, slowly drained in the 3rd and just jumped off a cliff in the 4th.

I just hope Luka gets traded to a real team soon.

cow c'mon my man.
I know DFS is your guy, but the dude laid an egg tonight. 3 fouls in the 1st quarter. Got torched by Booker to start the 3rd. Got blocked by Biyombo. Literally has taken 2 shots the whole game cause the Suns are making him take 1 dribble.
He played like shit tonight. 3 guys showed up again. DFS wasn't one of them tonight.

Gotta make a lot of smart decisions this offseason. Be careful not to turn this team into the Utah Jazz 2.0 with a second round ceiling every year

We can talk about center all we want but none of it matters without a second legit scorer who commands respect from defenses. Brunson is not that guy and will never be that guy. It's not his fault, he's always been a player with a lot of limitations
Yeah. They made Luka work for it in the first half, wore him down and now they relentlessly attack him on defense, with his legs gone. It´s always the same stupid discussion. We have no legit Robin. We have Alfreds and Batgirls. Until we improve the high end quality of the roster, we are not going to challenge for the title.
Maybe 1.5 wins for the Mavs was a bit optimistic. Let´s start with trying to win one game.

What a strange series. Mavs aren’t even in game 1 but lose by 7. Mavs are competitive in game 2 even leading at the half but lose by 20+.

Refs took him out of the game. What do you expect? I'm not defending him. He might as well have not suited up.

Luka just got lit up tonight. That was the difference.

Yeah idk. Talk like that screams to me you're mentally weak and lay down at the first sign of adversity and WANT to be a loser.
Luka is on a real team already. A flawed one. But a real team. Actively wanting Luka to be traded is a beta mindset.

There was a stretch of time where he played some of the worst defense I have seen, over and over.

Phoenix took their foot off the gas, when Mavs lost by 7. They were dominated most of the game.

That goes to Brunson for me. I would actually bench him for Dinwiddie game 3.
Powell is a close 2nd.
Luka/Dinwiddie/Bullock/DFS/Maxi should be the starting lineup game 3. Bertans comes in for DFS. Brunson comes in when Paul goes to the bench.

11 straight losses to this team.

Yep exactly what I meant when I said they weren’t even in the game.

This franchise is nothing but Mark Cuban's worthless toy. Put Luka on a real team and he has a title already.
