GAME 5: OKC (3-3) @ DAL (2-3) | 111-117 OT loss

[dirkfansince1998]

As far as Luka goes, he probably set an all time record tonight for the most exquisite passes ending with a clank instead of an assist. He also had to do all the dirty work himself grabbing 16 rebounds. Is it any wonder he was out of energy.  Can someone else on this team step up?  I’m afraid the Mavs  made a mistake paying their soon to be thirty something year old players and letting their emerging 26 year old walk. Ridiculous for them to double down on old as the way to build around Luka. They are fubared. Their best hope would be for Cuban to sell to someone who can compete financially with the big clubs.

Don´t make excuses for this garbage performance. I get that some people are overly critical when it comes to Luka but today he deserves it. Mavs played way better when he was on the bench. I am 100% convinced that they win the game if the starters stay on the bench.
