Side note to my fellow Knickas, Rest in Power to the GOAT

Gone way too soon

We're the only team you guys wake up to play against. I'm sick of this

That's not true...see our last game. Also...maybe you're not that good

 

[Wargames]

Powell’s set some dirty as picks… is this how he normally plays.

 

[g-ice]

And this is why teams comeback easily on these fools.

The shot selection is

 

[Derek Lee]

Randle's been dreadful tonight. A bunch of ugly misses so far

 

[storyteller]

Gotta get Deuce and IQ back in there to set the defense right. The second-unit rotations were soooo crisp.

 

[Knicksman20]

Too much Randle ball. He did this in the 2nd quarter too. Taj's has a solid game last one out & now Jericho Sims is back on the bench lol

 

[g-ice]

 

[scorpino]

Noooooooooooo

 

[Derek Lee]

These idiots surely can't blow this lead

 

[N.Y. State of Mind]

Offense was looking good in the first half running through RJ. Fast-forward to the third quarter and we're turning the ball over with stagnant offense and RJ sitting in the corner with Julius as the focal point. Like clockwork.

And why aren't they doubling Luka? Nobody else on the Mavs is doing anything. They're letting him go 1-on-1 and cook. Meanwhile RJ is being doubled.

 

[Derek Lee]

IQ playing well recently

 

[g-ice]

Nice move from IQ

 

[N.Y. State of Mind]

Really smart double there by Deuce to end the quarter

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

Last three minutes of this quarter is why I absolutely love this team despite the season record. Four possessions of straight bully ball.

back to back layups by Juju
IQ attacking finney and getting the three point play
RJ Barrett going straight at Luka.

It’s ugly but hey 2 points is 2 points
