Well the Mavs aren't going to win if the Pacers shoot over 50% from three and hit 13 threes in the first half. Hopefully they cool off in the second half.
Without Luka, it is even more apparent the lack of juice in our starting lineup. Two points combined from our starting forwards. Maxi is a wonderful player, but on offense his game is pretty much hitting open threes. Ideally, he is much better served as a big off the bench. DFS is not even the shooter that Maxi is. He is basically an effort guy. Probably best served as a heavy bench player. Even Richardson who scored 9 points in the first half, but feels so hard to get points. If you added one more really good offensive player who can create baskets, I think you can survive with Maxi or DFS starting. Although there are games like tonight where I think we need at least two starters, maybe three. Maybe it is just in game frustration talking.
Good to see a Josh Green sighting. I am hoping he will get some run. Sure, the other team made a run when he was in the game, but I thought he was pretty solid. Might need to throw Boban in the second half to get some easy baskets.
