Must win, simple as that. But it might not be easy. Utah can score
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - omahen - 01-01-2024
Both Luka and Kyrie will play tonight

Im so excited to see our real starting line up for the first time tonight.
Hopefully Luka/Kyrie/DJJ/Exum/Lively is as good as imagined.
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - SleepingHero - 01-01-2024
Mavs PR (@MavsPR)
Luka Dončić (left quad soreness), Kyrie Irving (right heel contusion), Dante Exum (right heel contusion) and Seth Curry (illness) are AVAILABLE for tonight’s game against the Jazz.
Maxi Kleber (right small toe dislocation) will be OUT.

I think GW would start instead of DJJ for this one with the task to guard Markanen. I think DJJ is too small to do that

While your idea definitely makes sense on paper, you forgot one key thing and that is Jason Kidd is our head coach.

Will be interesting to see. Kidd named the starting lineup when Kyrie gets back, and it didn't sound like he was going to mess with it for matchups.
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - SleepingHero - 01-01-2024
I like Green is trying to be aggressive, but Luka yelled at him bad after that horrendous drive. Even forced Kidd to take a timeout.
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - KillerLeft - 01-01-2024
Not a great start.

Honestly hard to predict this random scrub Fontecchio going off for 14 points on 5/6 shooting. He's (hopefully) bound to cool off. Mavs just have to weather the storm
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - SleepingHero - 01-01-2024
Mavs are ICE cold from deep.
OK GRANT! BIG AND-1
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - KillerLeft - 01-01-2024
Missed FT’s are a drag.
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - SleepingHero - 01-01-2024
Really rough 1st. But Luka had some rest. Maybe he has a big 2nd.
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - KillerLeft - 01-01-2024
Green HAS to finish that
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - KillerLeft - 01-01-2024
Lively gives up a ton of wide open threes. That could be a problem in the playoffs.
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - SleepingHero - 01-01-2024
Mavs are refusing to beat the zone. 2 in the corner. Lively flash middle. Go to work. Theyre sitting and waiting for these lazy cross court passes.
Time for these guys to wake the f up.
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - SleepingHero - 01-01-2024
Luka heating up. Great move by Kyrie there
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - KillerLeft - 01-01-2024
Pretty sick of those Luka threes at this point.
RE: Game 34: Dallas Mavericks (19-14) vs. Utah Jazz (14-19) - SleepingHero - 01-01-2024
Luka had a few threes go through and now I feel like he's settling like crazy. Is he not driving cause of his quad injury? Did he party too hard on NYE?
Mavs feel so disjointed right now with so many missed layups. No rhythm.
Dante out for the rest of the night. Heel contusion. More injury unluckiness.
