GAME 46: PHX (35-9) @ DAL (26-20) | 109-101 loss

[dirkfansince1998]

Javal falling asleep on a backdoor cut. Some things never change.

[SleepingHero]

Super glad @"SleepingHero" sold me all of his land on Porzingis island for super cheap a few months back!

Glad the investment has worked out. I also have a bridge to sell if you're interested...

---

A Luka-KP two-man game? Looking promising.

Just saw another flash of that Luka-KP two man game.

---

MAXI OH MY LORD/

[KillerLeft]

You can tell they are on the second night of a back to back. The defensive intensity has already diminished, especially relative to their recent great third-quarter efforts.

Hopefully, they have one or two more super hard pushes in them tonight.

[SleepingHero]

Luka putting Bridges in the blender.

---

These refs are letting PHX flops sway them.

[SleepingHero]

Ah there it is. Mavs energy has all but gone. Sloppy basketball.

[KillerLeft]

That last stretch of time was not as enjoyable as most of the rest of the game.

---

Like I always say at some point in every game, they need to get Porzingis back out on the floor!

[dirkfansince1998]

Bad stretch from Luka. Two life balll turnover leading to easy points for the Suns and the lead is gone.

Side note: Can somebody tell Crowder that RC is gone. There is no need for any further revenge games.

[KillerLeft]

Yeah, this is B2B stuff…Back to not running hard in defensive transition again, all of a sudden.

[SleepingHero]

Luka has killed the team with turnovers right now

[dirkfansince1998]

I hate careless Luka. Mavs should introduce a fine for life ball turnovers.

[SleepingHero]

Where is Chriss? We need some energy.

---

Really terrible 3rd quarter by Luka

---

Powell has gotten really good at nifty finishes.

---

It's sad that I know THJ is going to shoot it just by how he looks at the ball.

[KillerLeft]

Powell is single-handedly keeping the Mavericks in this game. So many of these open shots are short. Hate to beat a dead horse, but you can tell the team has tired legs.

[fifteenth]

Powell for the Dirkie

Powell for the Dirkie

with 6pts :-D

Not like they are shooting any better in other games. 9/29 is basically the average Mavs shooting night. I guess DFS and Maxi are flat. Both are on a downwards trend in the last couple of games. Luka is spraying it left and right. Thankfully Timmy is looking a little bit better.

Two for one. Not a fan of it if they just chuck it up but the analytics favor it.

---

Brunson giving CP3 the CP3 treatment. Mid range turn around.

[SleepingHero]

Brunson hitting some huge shots right now

---

Josh Green had some great D how did they call that a foul

[dirkfansince1998]

Terrible transition D. Stop the ball. If necessary foul.

[SleepingHero]

Huge effort by KP there

[KillerLeft]

I cannot believe Chris Paul is still this good.

[SleepingHero]

Amazing ball movement by KP THJ and Kleber

[KillerLeft]

First Tim Show of the season?!
