GAME 15: DEN (9-6) @ DAL (9-6) | 127-99 win

[Smitty]

I can't tell if it's because McGee is getting better or the DEN defense has been abhorrent and making McGee look like an all-star.

Sit him until he’s tradable now. His value will never be higher!

Kareem Abdul McGee!

[SleepingHero]

McGee hitting a skyhook over Deandre Jordan confirms its just his ass defense letting McGee become Kareem.

[KillerLeft]

I wish McGee was a little more focused on cleaning the defensive glass. I could give up some of the sky hooks in exchange, personally.

[SleepingHero]

lol Luka literally yelling at McGee for passing it to Bullock on the break and not him.

---

VAJ just letting Luka walk right by him sheesh.

[Chicagojk]

The not getting back on defense is so frustrating.

Yeah and then gives it right back to Jordan at the other end. A trip down MBT memory lane of excellence.


Meanwhile BolBol leads the league in blocks at 2M a year. Oh random fact Pokusevski is up to 4th in BPG and #1 in BPM. Too skinny like Luka too slow.

Watching Jordan play “defense“ is giving me post-traumatic stress.

You live and die by Shaqtin. Overall he's been pretty passable this game. Just goes to show how bad VAJ is though.

I agree.  He at least looked like an nba player tonight so far and got some easy looks.  But I agree, a little loose on the defensive side.  But at least some life out there

Strange signing by Denver.  Has he been playable so far this year?  I like the Zeke kid (same school as Josh).   I guess playing behind Jokic you don’t need Jordan to play a lot.  But aren’t there better options?

Can we get a second rounder for him?!

It’s almost as if he is best suited as a limited-minute, bench big to keep around for when you need to play annoying dinosaurs like Jordan every once in a while, earning the league minimum.

[Chicagojk]

So when does the Mavs drought occur?  And are these depleted Nuggets good enough to put together a 14-0 run?

[Smitty]

Anyone else catch Wood staring down Lukas full court heave at the end of the half? That dude is engaged!

[BoredAssistant]

Yelling at teammates, destroying the league.  Luka is going MJ.  Designate someone he can punch in practice and get these championships rolling.

Seems the correct answer is Powell, you know, practice for him too!

It makes even less sense when they had Demarcus Cousins who played pretty well for them. They let him go for free. He's still a free agent. I starting to wonder why the Mavs didn't sign him now...
