Exum gets hit in the face (although a stupid freaking drive by him) and no call.

They’re playing hard and pretty well, honestly.
It must be taking everything they have to put out this much effort on a back-to-back. That’s probably why everyone is dropping like flies.

OKC is one of the best forcing TO's

Hardy doesn’t quiiiiiiite seem ready for this playoff-like level.

Mavs going small for absolutely no reason
RE: Game 67: Dallas Mavericks (38-28) vs. Oklahoma City Thunder (45-20) - HoosierDaddyKid - 03-14-2024
THJ has found his stroke.

More turnovers.
Really disappointed in pj tonight. Needs to be better on offense. Not a fan going small. Pj and maxi are 0 on offense tonight

PJ has been ice cold from 3 but its not like hes gotten any chance to take a shot.
Mavs need to run him in a PnR with Kyrie and space the floor.

Yeah, you know how much I like the Kleber/Washington lineup, but when OKC went small last time they played, Dallas dominated them inside by staying big. Seems like that might help them tonight, so I’m not sure why it’s not happening. It might have something to do with whether or not Giddey is in the game.

So they need to go small?

Maxi is always a 0 on offense. He’s not a rotation worthy player. Hasn’t been for some time.

Not sure why they forced that to him when the help had already come over. But yeah, he needs to kick it back out in that situation.

Let’s see if Mavs have another run. Feels like a game that could go to 18 in a hurry when Kyrie sits.

This is absolutely what they should try when the Kleber/Washington lineup is in there. Kleber in the corner would be lethal.

No. Just put Lively in the dunker spot and run a high PnR.
Or even a spain PnR. Either one will result in a dunk and we don't give up easy stuff inside.

In the last game the Mavs made their big runs with PJ/Kleber on the floor. By the way still the best PF/C combination since the allstar break if we are looking at +/-.

16% 3pt shooter Kleber post ASB is absolutely not lethal.

I don’t really agree, because I believe he will still hold a defender on the perimeter. Space is important! He needs to hit some shots to keep it that way though.

PJ has never been great from 3. He'll make a few, but doesn't shoot a high percentage.

I have faith. He will find his stroke again.
