I like the lineup change
Yep.. Morris Sr. finally starting was a really good move. Lue didn't have a choice really. Less pressure on Batum now and he played good in the second half. PG shot like shyt but him fighting through it and contributing at the end is a really good sign going forward imo. He also was locking up Luka in the final minutes as well. He's got to stop shying away from the contact when he takes to the hole and get the foul call to get on the line. Buck in his Indy days he would go for the dunk but now he's all finesse. Good game from Zu. He's kind of better as a starter than coming off the bench. Good win. Finally saw some execution down the stretch to end a game

Solid game. Morris lives to crush us from 3. Score was closer than the game felt, you guys were clearly the better team.

Zubac is prime Duncan against our terry cloth front line

See you guys in a couple days

Nah, I like Kristaps. This site hates the entire Mavs roster, but KP is a really strong piece when he’s healthy and in rhythm. He can be a bit too soft at times, but more often than not, he’s an elite floor spacer and pairs very well with Luka

He’ll still infuriate me at times every few games, but dumping him for pennies on the dollar would be a backwards move.

Good series brehs

You guys were clearly the better team game 1

Luka was marvelous game 2

Morris and Zubac need to be schemed for from our side if we meet again in the postseason. Them boys kill us

PG maybe got over his mental block vs us tonight? First time I’ve seen his jumper wet vs Dallas in a minute

I don’t think this is the last these two teams will see of each other this season. They both seem to legitimately hate each other, which you love to see in today’s day and age.

Absoultely nothing from Lou, Morris, Reggie, Batum, etc. Kawhi has to put up more points. All superstars have at least one to two 30-40 point games a week. Also whether people hate Kennard or not he's got to get a look in a game like this when the guys I mentioned earlier aren't performing. Lue is going to end up clashing with the front office. Lou Will is washed and we can't depend on Pat Bev at all. Probably time to move on from both.

When the threes aren't falling, they got attack the paint.

When they do attack the paint and get hacked, fouls don't get called.

If they don't get called, they settle for jumpers. And when they settle for jumpers, they can go ice cold like they have many times this season

Settling for jumpers is the shyt Barkley talks about.

Bev is always injured, Lou is a turnstile on D, Luke never plays bc his defense is worse than Lou & you never know what you'll get from Reggie any night.

We might need a PG 'cause I don't think Kawhi and PG have it in them to set up the offense every possession, but George Hill won't score 20 a night, Lonzo's offense is terrible and Lowry is old & expensive.

Lou Will is washed, Reggie & Batum semi washed, Morris Sr. inconsistent, Kennard not working out, Kabengele not developed right/not working out, Pat Bev not dependable, Pat Patterson and Coffey are borderline pros, passed on Michael Porter Jr in the draft, etc. Basically low key a trash front office. And I know everybody loves ripping PG, and rightfully so when he's trash, but can we please get a blackout 40 point game from Kawhi, or at least a put the team on your back statement game from him? I'm glad he's on the team and I know we need a pg and all but damn give us one of those fukk it games and go off. I just want to see that shyt. You can't demand that trade that we made for you to agree to come here and you can't give us one of those games that all the stars have at least once out of every three to four games. Come on now

Coffey needs more minutes
Kennard needs more minutes (depending on matchups)
Mann doesn't look scared at all...shop the rest of the guys...Bev, Lou & Reggie see what you can get

Unforced Turnovers
Lack of points in the paint
Free Throws

In spite of that there are several things this team has going for it that it didn't last year

Getting the reps as a unit
Stars playing back to back
Stars having by all accounts their best years ever

It's ugly but it will come around
