Still a lot of time for him to grow into that role and as long as he is shooting 40% from 3 he still contributes to winning basketball.
His defense has been a little disappointing, too, I agree. I hope that’s just adjusting to a bigger role on that end, also.

Mavs playing pretty good D. Lakers not as aggressive going down hill like they were vs the Pacers.

Holmes with 2 offensive boards (6 overall) in 10 minutes of action.
The true backup C (until he gets traded).

Refs just know how momentum works. Gifted the Lakers three points to keep them within reach. Allowed them to go on a run to close out the half.

Vince Carter just called Luka a PG on national television.
just saying
Grant Hill just said Grant Williams’ physicality bothered LeBron in the first half.

Don’t love starting Hardy in the 2nd half.

Don't like the Hardy/Hardaway/Luka lineup.

Lakers avoiding mismatches. No easy matchups for Luka. LBJ on ball. Switch. AD on ball. Using their best players to slow Luka down.

I don’t think Holmes is very good, but I appreciate how hard he plays on the paint at times.

Cannot score right now. THJ is trigger happy but lost his rhythm. Hardy is his usual out of control self. Exum hesitant. Holmes with his best Dampier impression. Missing putbacks.

If the Mavs truly want to trade Hardaway (I don’t), this game on National television is going to help.

Mavs running out of gas and running out of talent tonight, short-handed. Good effort for 2 quarters but now let's get blown out so Luka can rest #ScheduledLoss

Hardy has lost his confidence. Can't even make a chippy..Where's Curry? He started, haven't seen him since.

If he wants to play hero ball he is in the wrong league. Will havt to find a tem in China or Taiwan that appreciates a flashy chucker.

To be fair. His shooting also kept us in the game.

If Williams AND Exum are going to make threes, I like this team a lot.

The opposite, obviously.

Lively with a couple of really bad possession on defense.
