WHAT A WIN! Mavs had so much going against them. Luka and KP had bad games, Carlisle with the most weird rotations. YET Brunson, Wright, DFS, THJ and Kleber all pulled this game out. Even Curry had a solid game.
Dirkie to all of them.
Hard to accuse Carlisle of "weird rotations" if you win the game.
The rotations were weird. He tightened them in the 4th which helped secure the W. But make no mistake the Mavs barely squeaked this one out. If just 1 player didn't show up tonight like they did against Portland this was a loss, and that's more on Luka and KP not showing up. Rotations were a net negative on the whole (I mean cmon how is Wright not starting? Bringing Powell back against Denver?).
But hey the Mavs won. I'm happy. I didn't like how Carlisle played it but he fixed it late in the game and it worked.
