Only half joking. Do the Mavs need to watch Bullock play like this for the entire month of november or can they just bring him back around christmas. Does he need to brick 100+ 3s early in the season to find his rhythm?

At this point, I'm scared everytime I watch DFS pass a ball.

Maybe he is my new don’t like dude but some of Hardaway defense miscues are maddening. On that fast break he was slow getting back. May have had a chance to not allow them to get the rebound and score.

FFS. Some of these misses on wide open shots aren´t even close.

You are right though, the others are getting WIDE open 3's.

The degree of difficulty of shots they are taking is as easy as it gets. Last time the Mavs had as many wide open 3s was in the playoffs against the Jazz. Magic aren´t even trying to contest them. The fact that the Magic are getting away with their scheme is embarassing.

For sure, but I'll take 40-50% 3 shooting (degree of difficulty be damned) over 20-22%. One more make (as opposed to a miss) from all of them and this game is a blow out though.

Bigger problem might be that even with all the time and space in the world they struggle to get shots off.

Any fans who paid their hard-earned money to see THJ launch up shots got their money's worth today

FT shooting might be worse than the 3-ball.

Roster just doesn't have the firepower without Wood. Wizards should beat them easily tomorrow too

I had to answer a work call and when I come back I find that the game has gotten out of control.

If Luka is not transcendent, Mavs lose. Spence was good, but there's not just much else on this team.

I'm not sure why THJ gets to be on top and Green stays in the corner.
THJ keeps on chucking while Green can't even get touches.
Get Green THJ's touches and see what happens.

Get Green THJ's touches and see what happens. Green is 0-2 on 3's.

10 games into the season and I am completly done with THJ and Bullock. 3&D players that cannot shoot or defend. And I know that I have to wait for Bullock´s post christmas stretch. That THJ is coming back from an injury. But this is just super frustrating.
Add Luka playing like he just wants to keep the 30pts streak alife and this might be worse than blowing a double digit 4th quarter lead.

Bullock doesn't make things happen.
I know Green has a lot of time in without doing anything, but the Mavs at least have a chance to get on the break with him.
And they fouled at the last seconds. Right.
Nice Kidd/Bullock.
