Also, I am not ok with Luka playing all the second half. Especially with all our injuries. As great as he was, I think he definitely had tired legs on several plays in the second half. No reason he shouldn’t have had ample rest. The team probably would have been fine. I am sure Luka pushed to stay in the game but this is where Kidd needs to make the decision.
You can really see the size issues the Mavs have on the wings. PF for sure but in the second quarter they had both Hardy and Hardaway in the game. Tough to ask Hardy to guard O’Neal. Exum will fix some of this.
I keep thinking what is the surprise trade for Claxton? I was super impressed him taking the responsibility to guard Luka and do pretty good. Is it OKC? Who else? He could really be a huge addition for a team. Maybe the nets keep him.
