1:24- Powell gets blown by on the PnR which leads to an open kickout. Mavs get put into rotation where Exum DJJ, AND Kyrie are all late. Wide open 3 but SAC misses. Murray gets his rebound because DJJ is ball watching. Then Monk gets the kickout and THJ just lazily closes out, easy 3 for Monk.

0:55- quick contested mid range pullup by THJ. Swish
101-94
0:36- I have no clue why DJJ and THJ just decide to not switch, but DJJ basically stops guarding his guy and THJ doesn’t switch off. Wide open 3 for Monk. Both are at fault, but DJJ is 51% of the blame.
104-94
0:21- Smooth Exum pullup off the Powell screen
104-96
0:10- Exum helps off really far off his man, quick pass puts the Mavs in rotation. Kyrie helps smartly, THJ rotates corner but wildly closes out. DJJ again chooses the wrong rotation and it leads to a wide open 3 for Murray

End of quarter.


Decided to compile the last 3 mins of the 3rd quarter. DJJ lost us this game. Powell and THJ tied for a close 2nd.
