So much iso ball…so little movement.
Total opposite of what’s happening on the other end.

If I am Kidd I am genuinely considering sitting Brunson the rest of the game.
If he isn't scoring he's getting absolutely torched defensively. Not rebounding. Not focused. Bricking everything.

Heard some stat that Phoenix is 50-0 when leading after 3? so, yeah..

The Brunson offseason is going to be incredibly interesting.
RE: GAME 2: DAL (0-1) vs. PHX (1-0)| 9:00pm CST - Jommybone - 05-04-2022
6 points going into the 4th. Good news for Mavs fans. If the reffing shifts like it did from 1st to 2nd Q, Mavs are gonna win this. And they might even if it doesn’t.

He looks overmatched so far..
Suns perimeter defends are in a different stratosphere than Utah. Once JB got past a Utah defender, he could just dance until he got his shot against the interior defense. JB's already been blocked twice from behind in this series doing that and it doesn't have a ton of shot attempts in the first place.

Brunson and Dinwiddie just are not threats out there. If they are supposed to be THE guys, they should be dominating out there vs. the Suns second unit but they can't even do that. So they are no match out there for the Suns' starters
Both of those guys should be 6th men-type scorers on a true contender/Top-4 NBA team

Hopefully that short rest was enough for Luka to finish the final 12 strong because the Mavs have no other offense against this team.

Any $$ he thought he earned after UTA he's slowly taking away with each terrible minute this series.
RE: GAME 2: DAL (0-1) vs. PHX (1-0)| 9:00pm CST - Jommybone - 05-04-2022
Neither are getting ANY whistles. Lighten up on the criticism. Luka looks bad when they let him get mugged too. Just doesn’t happen so often.

Brunson is a winner. He’ll show the doubters here in the 4th

I'm right back to my original position of having no feel for what he is really worth.
RE: GAME 2: DAL (0-1) vs. PHX (1-0)| 9:00pm CST - HoosierDaddyKid - 05-04-2022
Suns are 51-0 when leading after 3 qtrs. Damn.
RE: GAME 2: DAL (0-1) vs. PHX (1-0)| 9:00pm CST - SleepingHero - 05-04-2022
FINALLY BRUNSON BIG THREE!
RE: GAME 2: DAL (0-1) vs. PHX (1-0)| 9:00pm CST - MaxiThreeba - 05-04-2022
Please be the one that gets JB going!!!

The Chris Paul effect
RE: GAME 2: DAL (0-1) vs. PHX (1-0)| 9:00pm CST - SleepingHero - 05-04-2022
Luka looks totally out of it. Throwing stupid passes, no rhythm.
RE: GAME 2: DAL (0-1) vs. PHX (1-0)| 9:00pm CST - cow - 05-04-2022
Luka letting the crowd get into his head. Just really weird.
RE: GAME 2: DAL (0-1) vs. PHX (1-0)| 9:00pm CST - HoosierDaddyKid - 05-04-2022
CP starting to take over.
RE: GAME 2: DAL (0-1) vs. PHX (1-0)| 9:00pm CST - LifeAquatic - 05-04-2022
He's had several lazy passes, even when not turnovers. Just looks out of sorts.
He needs to get mad if he has the gas.

I don't even think it's that. He thrives off that kind of energy. He just looks exhausted. No legs.
LUKA HUUUUUGE THREE!
