Not cool. Rick Carlisle needs to realize he's not above Luka or Porzingis. Finally we have a team where the player is greater than the coach. That was just a plain rookie move by a veteran coach RE: GAME 7: ORL (2-6) @ DAL (5-2) | 107-106 win - DirkFan9 - 11-06-2019 (11-06-2019, 11:02 PM)speedkilz88 Wrote: Orlando was dumb there. They were only down 1 and shoot a 3. They could’ve won the game if Vuc posted up. That’s why big men should still post up instead of shooting 3s. Its an asset if they have the range but they should know when to shoot the 3 and when to take it inside. RE: GAME 7: ORL (2-6) @ DAL (5-2) | 107-106 win - SportPsychMav - 11-06-2019 Thank God Orlando can't hit from 3 point range. Fultz shot is really messy. Jonathan Isaac had a great game but Luka made the same pass multiple times which Isaac stole multiple times. Well glad I can enjoy a win after spending my night watching this. RE: GAME 7: ORL (2-6) @ DAL (5-2) | 107-106 win - 903Mavs - 11-06-2019 One last point... What a difference From the recent past... On a Wes Matthews-led Mavs squad, this would have been a glorious job of near tank commanding. Now, it just feels gross. But in fairness, when you play 82, you’re going to have a couple of these RE: GAME 7: ORL (2-5, on back-to-back) @ DAL (4-2) | Nov 6, 7:30 pm | Mavs 7.0 pt favs - j0Shi - 11-06-2019 Bullets:

THJ doesn't deserved 26 minutes while Brunson, Curry and Wright combined for 26 minutes. Brunson got dogged because he isn't stopping his hero ball antics. Hardaway Jr had his best game this season, not many mistakes to be honest. Carlisle went with the bigger players beside jj who had a great game.

RE: GAME 7: ORL (2-6) @ DAL (5-2) | 107-106 win - SleepingHero - 11-06-2019 Mavs 80% from the FT line tonight. Was pivotal them hitting their FT's.

Mavs were struggling offensively early so he went to Powell and THJ. Then it seems like he forgot for the rest of the game that we have better players on the roster.

Would be a littler simpler to have a reliable 3rd "star". At least now we have all these player contracts in various sizes that we can at least legally construct every trade, whether it´s a 10M, 20M, 30M or 40M dollar contract coming the other way.

Brunson and Curry need those minutes I really wish this hater posts against Powell and THJ would tone down a bit. THJ was actually one of better players tonight with a team highest +-. Powell also had a good game. It was obvious RC pulled small guys out of rotation after the rebounding issues in the first minutes (so no Brunson and Curry). Barea was in as a surprise shock and it worked. Isaac killed KP who was worst player on the floor for Mavs, taking into account the salary. It is getting obvious he has problems against smaller athletic players as he has 0 post game. But he is keeping opposing defense very honest just by his presence, which is making much more room for Luka and other guys. Despite his bad individual performance, his presence means a lot. Luka won the game despite really bad decision making in the last two minutes - he should have shared a ball a bit more in that time. Orlando plays very tough, but has horrible offense. Toughest team Mavs played so far this season. They will not be just a walkover team as obviously some of you thought. This team made play offs last season... Good win for Mavs. RE: GAME 7: ORL (2-6) @ DAL (5-2) | 107-106 win - BigDirk41 - 11-06-2019 The way I look at it is Brunson, Wright and Curry are a big part of the future here. THJ isn't and will be traded before his contract expires. They need their minutes and they need to get comfortable in their roles.

He is trying, you can't say he is not trying to give his best. He makes occasional stupid plays, but all in all he was a positive contributor and deserved his minutes tonight. You need to showcase him a bit if you want to get some value when trading him. RE: GAME 7: ORL (2-6) @ DAL (5-2) | 107-106 win - BigDirk41 - 11-06-2019 Maybe I came off wrong in my wording. I don't hate THJ and I especially don't hate DP. I didn't like DP got 14 more minutes than Maxi. I think they should get pretty even minutes. As far as THJ I agree with everything you said about THJ, but I do want Curry, Wright and Brunson to get their minutes. I guess the real issue is the amount of depth and options RC has. That's a good problem to have. THJ does frustrate me at times, but he does make some good plays too. He's just very unpredictable.

THJ isn't and will be traded before his contract expires. They need their minutes and they need to get comfortable in their roles. I guess curry could technically be part of the future here but I think folks are way too hyped about him as *the* answer at shooting guard. He’s going to be a niche roleplayer off the bench and we should be happy if he can become consistent and remain healthy in that role. He’s a helluva weapon to have in the arsenal. I’ve got high hopes for Wright. Agree he should have a more consistent, sizable role in the rotation. Hopefully his current role is at least partly due to the need to ‘showcase’ a guy like THJ and whatnot. Brunson could go either way as far as the future goes. I’d pencil him as part of the future core simply due to his age for now but I could also see the Mavs moving on from him relatively easily given the right opportunity coming along. Luka is the long term PG of this team, which essentially automatically makes any other PG on the roster much less valuable to dallas.

I agree Brunson needs way more minutes (along with JJax) but THJ has earned his minutes so far this season. RE: GAME 7: ORL (2-6) @ DAL (5-2) | 107-106 win - BigDirk41 - 11-06-2019 Mavs signed Curry to a 4/32 contract meaning they plan on him being part of the future. He was also here in the past. THJ won't be here long term. That's more of my concern. I agree Jackson needs more minutes too. We'll just agree to disagree that THJ has earned his minutes. He's a volume shooter. Any of the players mentioned can do better than what he is doing if they have the green light to bomb away. RE: GAME 7: ORL (2-6) @ DAL (5-2) | 107-106 win - 903Mavs - 11-06-2019 I think the frustration with THJ is that if he would show even a little discretion with shot selection, he could be an exceptional player. It’s frustrating to watch a player with so many tools be so self-destructive. I know all players have their warts, but his appear to be completely correctable, but he seems unwilling to play within himself RE: GAME 7: ORL (2-6) @ DAL (5-2) | 107-106 win - jesusshuttlesworth82 - 11-06-2019 (11-06-2019, 11:32 PM)Fuerza1 Wrote:LOL WAT(11-06-2019, 11:18 PM)BigDirk41 Wrote: The way I look at it is Brunson, Wright and Curry are a big part of the future here. THJ isn't and will be traded before his contract expires. They need their minutes and they need to get comfortable in their roles. He's shooting 37% from the field this season and he's a bad defender. He's an offensive specialist with a PER of 10. (although I'll grant he had a couple of huge defensive plays tonight) He's one of the most garbage players in the league. RE: GAME 7: ORL (2-6) @ DAL (5-2) | 107-106 win - Fuerza1 - 11-06-2019 Isaac stuffed Porzingis into his locker and took his lunch money. Then slapped him for the hell of it. What a defensive clinic he put on tonight. His statline was pretty crazy too if y'all take a look. The day he leaves ORL, he's going to make a championship caliber team very happy. Hopefully it's us. |
