Game 71: Dallas Mavericks (41-29) vs. Utah Jazz (29-42)

[BoredAssistant]

I don't know why but I just remembered Calvin Booth and beating Utah in the playoffs. That was awesome.

[RoyTarpleysGhost]

Just got in and we’re down to the Jazz. Come on man.

[SleepingHero]

Some great defensive possessions marred by some awful offense.

Luka bricking everything. Everyone else can't hit a 3. Refs are basically letting them play football.

Despite that, they're only down 5. It feels like they're down 20.

[GATA]

Lively and Maxi both playing great

[Chicagojk]

Tough to beat a team twice. I would like to see some better defense and rebounding in the second half. They only gave up 24 in the second but it felt worse.

3 point shooting is an issue again. Without Hardaway 3, they would just have one. Luka looks labored. Passing well though.

[GATA]

PJ is just awful

[Chicagojk]

If pj and Maxi don’t shoot better fast, the playoffs are going to be rough when good teams game plan to leave them wide open.

[SleepingHero]

LUKA AND KYRIE ARE WAKIN UP!

[Chicagojk]

Good run by the Mavs but then got cold. 4-5 threes in a row. Ok shots but would like to see some drive and kick.

This lineup is going to struggle to score if Kyrie isn’t going to do it.

[SleepingHero]

If pj and Maxi don’t shoot better fast, the playoffs are going to be rough when good teams game plan to leave them wide open.

Hurts to watch Maxi shoot sometimes. Dude has fallen off so hard.

[GATA]

Why in the world are we challenging this?

[ThisIStheYear]

Kleber slow as molasses, no athleticism, and can’t shoot tonight. He’s painful to watch this season

[SleepingHero]

TIMMY HAS GROWN!

TIMMY IS A NEW MAN!

WHAT A PASS BY TIMMY TO LIVELY!

[Chicagojk]

Some good looks at three late that didn’t go in. Some questionable ones too.

If Kessler is not in the game, Mavs need to attack.

[SleepingHero]

Why in the world are we challenging this?

After the review do you see why we challenged that?

[SleepingHero]

Timmy has been one of our best defenders tonight and has hustled like crazy.

Kyrie also diving everywhere.

Luka looks gassed with his hands on his knees.

[SkenfromLMF]

This is a gritty game and shots just rattle out.

[ThisIStheYear]

A little too much isolation for Luka and Kyrie tonight. They’re throwing up some difficult shots.

[SleepingHero]

These refs are horrible.

HOW THEY CALL THAT BLOCK A GOALTEND????

Exum and PJ have been playing incredible defense.

PJ HITS 2 THREES!! LETS GO!

[Chicagojk]

I can’t believe how good Gafford has been. Pair him with Lively and they put up elite numbers as a combo.
