Happy for Maxi and great play by him and Kyrie. I think the Mavs are now 1-12 in game ending inbound play situations, at least I read that. This play was as bad as or worse than the others. Took a miracle by Kyrie to find Maxi with a difficult but open look with .2 on the clock. Gutty win, but not an impressive one. Still, that gives them effectively a three game lead on the Lakers, and many of the teams below that seem to be tanking. The Mavs are looking good to at least get a top 8 spot now, and only need to win one of two to make the playoffs were a very beatable opponent will await them. Just wish Kidd would put a tighter rotation on the floor that keeps Wright (-10 in like 6 minutes tonight) at the end of the bench. One thing I did like from Kidd was more two big lineups.
