Thanks! I need to go set the League Pass recording for this. Sacramento looked bad when I saw them but I still want to watch our progress.

I didn't make it to church Sunday, but never fear, I tuned in to the Mavs/Suns game and was given an in-game social justice sermon by the broadcast crew.  I'm now wondering if there is going to be such a sermon delivered every game this season.  I don't tune in to sports events to be lectured about social justice, or anything else, and it's really starting to turn me me off of watching the games.

If you are really getting turned off by the main stream commentators the NBA is adding Podcaster\Blog boys as an "Influencer" commentator option on NBA League Pass.
Watched Nate Duncan and Danny Leroux commentate one game and they just talked about bball, took questions from views as well.
But the NBA is just giving them the games ESPN and co don't televise, ie Orlando vs Nets, not sure if they will do any Mavs games.

Actually the Mavs vs Suns game had an Influencer option but I had no idea who they were , possibly Suns podcasters

Winning this game is turning into a must to give the team some kind of confidence and momentum.
Even if it is looking very unlikely to move up getting some rhythm and chemistry has to happen before the playoffs, which start in less then 2 weeks.
The level of play from the role players is very concerning and would lead to a massive blowout vs the Clippers in the first round.
Hardaway and Curry playing well in the same game would be a big boost.
Maxi contributing something on the offensive end would be great.
Wright doing something useful when he has the ball would also help, doesn't seem like he fits in the system and needs to be moved in the offseason.

Oh good, a non-holiday Tuesday 1:30 game. Not sure we’ve ever played one of those, guess that makes it a must win game!

Yes! My day is made just as I head for bed.

It will be at 4am here in Oz

It’s starting to feel like the Mavs may only win one or two games in the bubble, including the playoffs. This should be one of them.

Well, at this point and with the Mavs playing the way they are, I'd just as soon see another guard get some run, anyway.  Change things up and see what happens.  We're locked into 7th, so let's see who can get the job done right now.

MKG prediction 6 minutes 4 fouls

MKG prediction 6 minutes 4 fouls

6 mins/ 0 points/1 rebound/0 assists/4 fouls/ -25 on the court.

Starting the game with two Luka post ups.

[SleepingHero]

Yikes. Tough start.

[Jannemann2]

elite perimeter defense as usual

[bin610]

Good job so far leaving the Kings completely wide open.

[Hypermav]

All you can do is just laugh.  Our best defender (the rim) is doing a poor job.

[dirkfansince1998]

THJs defensive effort in the bubble has been beyond pathetic. JJB sucks as well but he at least tries.
