  1. That really sucks. He was playing very well. We’re going to miss him.
  2. I think Gafford is going to be playable this series which means we should be able to get back to getting some lobs that the clippers took away with Zubac. Lively and Gafford being big contributors again would offset the loss of Maxi.
  3. Agree. Really do not want to go back to LA. That's too much like the last series we played them. I expect the Clippers will play desperate and shoot closer to their average in Game 6. It's going to be a tight one. This really comes down to not falling behind by 20 and then I like our chances.
  4. Seems like the Clippers have won 2 halves in this series and that’s what has kept them in it. If the Mavs would have had even just subpar halves in those games, this would be over.
  5. Luka has played 37 minutes. Time to see if we can keep the lead around 20 and let him rest. Quick turnaround for Friday.
  6. Apparently nobody on this team is capable dribbling the ball up the floor other than Luka and Kyrie.
  7. Yea, a big issue is usually Kyrie does not get going until the 2nd half. They have to find a way to get him going earlier. I've been very surprised Exum has not gotten more run. He handles the ball reasonably well, at least enough to play 10-12 minutes. Even if you only bring him on for 2 minutes at a time, it seems like they could find ways to keep the ship afloat without running Luka and Kyrie into the ground.
  8. Apparently, Harden did not take many floaters this year so they were banking on him not being very efficient with them. The problem is they should have adjusted after he hit a couple in a row.
  9. I think Luka playing 45 minutes is hurting more than helping at a certain point. At the end, he was getting blown by with ease and he was also shooting like shit. I realize they were having to chase the game, but you have to find a way to give him 1 or 2 minutes. The Mavs also need to find a way to not be way behind at the beginning of these games. It's happened in 3 of the 4 games.
  10. Bad ass win. Still didn’t shoot the ball well. I feel like we’re about to open one up on Sunday.
  11. Also, need the gif of Luka calling the clipper crowd fucking ass holes.
  12. I don’t mind ugly offense if they make their layups and free throws. If that happens, this game isn’t very close at the end.
  13. Sometimes this game isn’t as hard as we make it out to be. The role players are going to have to make shots or we’re going to lose. That’s all there is to it.
  14. He is known for doing this shit and they give it to him anyway. Then Luka get hacked by harden at the other and nothing. Regardless, we have left a ton of points on the floor. If we make layups, this is a 4-5 point lead.
  15. If we didn’t see Maxi the rest of the series, I would not be mad about it.
  16. Luka, PG has three fouls. Stop settling for a 20 ft 2 pointer. Put his ass in the paint.
  17. Another missed layup. That combined with shitty free throw shooting. Not liking this.
