GAME 8: DAL (5-3) @ SAS (2-6) | 109-108 win

[SleepingHero]

Luka is again team worst -17 after the team wipes out almost all of SAS's lead immediately when he goes to the bench. When he isn't playing ALL five Mavs players are playing with a collective energy, effort, and scramble that is just not there when he is playing.

Why??

Luka is forced to play with guys like WCS, Powell, Sterling Brown, and DFS. All of them are non-factors on offense and all but 1 were pretty much non-existent on defense tonight. 

I feel like you're missing the forest for the trees with +/- in this case and it's leading you astray.

I am being tough on Luka but that is because he wears the crown.  You can't give up a three up four at the end of the game.   

Lonnie Walker was clearly out of bounds and the refs missed it.
