PLAYOFF ROUND 2 GAME 2: DAL (0-2) vs. PHX (2-0)| 109-129 loss

[VintagePejav2]

Powell can’t play anymore. We’re getting more from Bertans than Dwight - a lot more tonight. Hopefully we’re finally nearing the end of Maverick Dwight Powell.

5-out. DFS at the center. More drives by Luka SD and JB

I mean you have 5 out with Maxi too, who happens to be a better 3 point shooter than din, and a much better interior defender.  I'm fine with the death lineup occasionally, but not sure you want to start the quarter with it.

[BolsDamols]

By the way, Ayton also has 3 fouls. Luka needs to attack and not pass up shots once he is deep in the paint as the broadcast said. These usually result to turnovers.

[VintagePejav2]

Brunson also needs to wake the F up. This is looking more and more like last season’s Clippers series. He’s not a reliable sidekick to Luka yet.

I want to attack the rim early. Set the tone. Maxi is great but I want 3 guys to attack and set the tone

Suns have 1 offensive board. Just 1. Wow.

[MaxiThreeba]

I will say one thing for Brunson.  Luka is on Crowder, as he should be, because he’s the only Suns player that really doesn’t go inside the 3 pt line and helps limit foul trouble. 

Because of that, JB has to take on Mikal.  That is a lot to ask of JB and no doubt takes a lot out of him. 

That, coupled with the Suns length defensively is an awful recipe for JB.  Unfortunately, nothing to do to change that unless you put Luka on Mikal some and that just doesn’t seem like a smart option with the heavy lifting Luka has to do on the offensive end.

Well, refs didn’t get bored of hearing their whistles at the break

[SleepingHero]

Big shot by Luka.

He's a day late and a dollar short every time.

Thanks to Cubes he will never be a dollar short

[SleepingHero]

Brunson cold again.  

Powell getting lit up. WHY are we wasting our time with these guys on the court.

[DrMav]

Mavs gonna have to realize that if they don’t pay attention Bridges is gonna sneak in for those boards

[SleepingHero]

That's a flagrant 1 no?

[DrMav]

Hopefully Suns will have blown their challenge here

[SleepingHero]

Hopefully Suns will have blown their challenge here

Didn't challenge it. Automatic review triggered by the refs.

[BolsDamols]

Thanks for the TO Luka! Flagrant 1 and 4 fouls

[DrMav]

Didn't challenge it. Automatic review triggered by the refs.

Couldn’t hear what the refs said on the initial review, thought the Suns wanted to challenge at first based on what the commentators were saying before they saw the replay
