GAME 63: NOP (26-36) @ DAL (38-25) | 127-123 win

[mtrot]

WCS successfully guarded Ingram.

dont know why you guys hating on lee. hes gettng owned by ingram but we have no DFS and at least he's coming back down and being a factor on offense. if it was JJ, id lose my mind cause he is ass defensively and on the boards and can't shoot anymore

6 points left at the FT line so far and losing the boards battle by 5. 29-34

Pels hanging around...

Has anyone on this forum finally reached the obvious conclusion that the Mavs just are not that good? Since the second month of the season, the Mavs have pretty much been a .500 team. As the season progresses, they are slipping below even that threshold.

7th seed in the West. Pretty much where a lot of people put them best case.

Talent-wise this team has a LOOOONNNNGGGG way to go. I doubt Cuban comprehends that fact though.

[Hypermav]

Both teams want this win, exciting game

[mtrot]

Crap, Luka biting on the shot fake again, which led to the layup.

[bartlettbear]

Rick Carlisle is atrocious

[DrMav]

Fantastic start to the 4th...

[dirkfansince1998]

Injured Luka in the game for 12+ minutes without a break? Don´t like it.

[bartlettbear]

We are going to lose this game if we can't hit threes like we did in the 1st half.

Coaching not talent is the issue

Jump ball

[mtrot]

Wright should've taken that drive on in to the rim, instead of pulling up and losing the ball.

DELONNNN 4 333333

[DrMav]

Can Delon actually be willing to take and make shots routinely?

If so, maybe it won’t be such a need to upgrade from him this offseason

[dmavs4life03]

Delon is so much better when he doesn't hesitate. Also think he's better with Curry or Hardaway than Luka because he's not a true shooter like they are.

He's playing well, made a couple of 3's. Not going to castrate him for a turnover or two. He's usually scared to shoot.

Yup.   It seems like hes always been afraid that he'll make a mistake for the last couple of months.

[dmavs4life03]

gotta slow down here. quality shots pls

Takes out Curry and leaves in lee

Down 2 because of coaching

Please explain why.

Favors scores in the paint against KP and Doncic.
KP pulls the trigger on an early shot clock 3 and misses.
Ingram hits a contested midrange jumper over Lee. Good defense. Better offense.

4-point swing. Do you think an even smaller Curry could do a better job against Ingram?

[mtrot]

The Mavs are just getting destroyed inside tonight.  It seems to be a completely foreign concept to Rick to have his players put the opponent on the line.  Pels leading 42-26 in the paint.
