2023 - 2024 Dallas Mavericks Season Thread - I'm watching, just like you guys

Lively ruled out for game 4. Maxi upgraded to questionable. Would be a huge coup to close this out tomorrow and give Maxi/Lively a full week of rest.

In his rookie year there was a tweet that said something to the affect of 
Luka is 20lbs overweight, fat faced, wears an olineman's number, looks like he gets his haircuts at Great Clips, and will cut the heart out of your favorite team and there's nothing you can do about it.
All of that is pretty much true today. He's not chiseled or athletic in terms of an NBA body and when he dribbles, he's not making all these highlight reel moves, but damnit if he's not putting all his opponents on skates and hitting shots right in their face

Luka’s game is like a movie about an ex High School star who works at Bank of America before being discovered playing pickup at the YMCA by a down-on-his-luck basketball scout* and ultimately leads his expansion team to the NBA finals.

Sounds like Lively is out but Maxi will be back. You have to think Maxi is going to be on a restriction, but even if he takes Powell’s minutes, that’s better than nothing. 
Maxi probably gets 12-14 tonight which like you said is better than Dwight getting 12-14. I think the wolves come out playing 5 out.

With Boston already having swept, thanks to some big Indiana chokejobs, Dallas really should get this closed out asap. Boston already home and resting. Dallas needs to get Lively and Maxi some needed rest to be ready for a potential Finals matchup.

I remember in 2003, Mavs were up 3-0 on Portland. They took a game 4 and kept the series alive. Then took the next 2 and had to get extended to a game 7. 

I am pretty confident Dallas ends up winning the series but it's best to put a team out its misery as soon as you can. Especially with all the traveling done between games 4-7 with alternating back and forth every game.

Scott Foster is on the whistle tonight, so you got that going for you..

Don’t know about you guys but I’m starting to think kat might not be a smart player. 

Starting to understand why he doesn't play aggressively. Because if he did, he'd foul out of every game.

Game 4 for the sweep

and it’s a Scott Foster episode of one team can do whatever they want and the other team gets penalized for it

they are gonna fuck Dallas next series too this is just the beginning of the shenanigans 

The NBA is a joke

NBA doesn't want 2 sweeps and a bunch of dead time but we are gonna win this despite them.

That should be flagrant and embellishing.  And reacting weird like a teenage girl.

Towns is so zesty combined with the eye makeup it’s crazy
