It was less than a week ago that the Mavs were up by 2 points in Brooklyn. Luka had the ball with 12 seconds left.
Easy win, right? Well, no. Elite perimeter defender Ben Simmons managed a clean steal and assisted on a KD dunk to force overtime. Just pointing out that was a very Kidd-like play, in only his 5th game back after surgery and sitting out a year.
Sure, Simmons comes with baggage, but I wonder how many people who say he's finished, also say THJ, Powell (and Bertans for that matter) are terrible players who should be traded just to keep them out of the rotation?
