Jason Kidd says Luka Doncic is questionable for Game 3. Will go through his pregame routine to see if he can play.

Seems OK. Not saying he isn’t in discomfort, but it would be a shock if he doesn’t play.


Luka with a noticeable limp. He's an absolute monster. Playing through obvious discomfort. I hope he's good to go.

I thought Conley was a real factor in game 2 against the Mavs' drop coverage. It will be interesting if they make an adjustment.

Shaq singing Slovenian music to Luka is everything I’ve ever dreamed and then some.


Not sure I can qualify this as "singing" but as long as it makes Luka happy.

LETS GO MAVS!

Need good Green tonight

How was that not a foul on Gobert? Brothers swallowing his whistle.

Already Brothers a factor. Kyrie out of bounds(no replay) out on Minny called their ball, no and 1 for D-Live. Interesting.

Different game. Wolves blitz every single time and help off the shooter in the corner. Mavs hit a couple of 3s but PJ still looks shaky.

And Edward’s travel. brothers again.

[GATA]

Green with the energy

[Jym]

I wonder when we're going to get that game from hardy where he scores 20 points in 15 minutes
tonight would nice

[dirkfansince1998]

Love those relocation threes. Kyrie never stops moving.

[The Jom]

I’m gonna say it. It’s so true. Second best player on the court is Dereck Lively II. Second best. And it’s not close.

[GATA]

Luka was fouled twice at the end there with no calls

[dirkfansince1998]

Feels like the Wolves hit a big three at the end of every single quarter. Not even a good look for a mediocre shooter. Mavs just cannot close quarters. I guess they are using all of their end of quarter magic to close games in the 4th.

[dirkfansince1998]

Also wonder how the Mavs lead impacts the flow of the game. Wolves had the lead 77% of time in game 1+2.

[GATA]

Should be a flagrant

[dirkfansince1998]

Brothers ruining Kidd's perfect challenge record. That's not a normal motion.

[BolsDamols]

Lets go Exum, give us something!
