Ok, NOW they are not playing well.

On cue, the Mavs come out and shit the bed in the third quarter after Kidd’s halftime adjustments. It’s just horrible. What a waste.

Not a good start, I agree.

Suns finding their mojo now. KD wasn't going to miss shots all game.

Could have lived without Grant Williams getting thrown out of this game. He had a great first quarter, and has found a way to ruin it.

lol taunt on DJJ on that but not on Nurkic before

No easy way to say it. They are a weak willed team. They let some bad calls totally get to them.
On offense they have no answer if their threes are not falling.
Just disgusting. Not how basketball should be played.
Withstand Dallas hot shooting and then have your way with them when they get cold.

I actually think both of those things are true, I just want to know which one you meant.
I meant that when they make shots they play harder on defense.

Mavs too busy battling the refs instead of the Suns. That's a losing proposition every time.
RE: Game 44: Phoenix Suns (25-18) vs. Dallas Mavericks (24-19) - ThisIStheYear - 01-24-2024
Please make this Kidd’s final stand.

Seems like something the head coach should do something about.

Our guys will hopefully learn from this how bad it is to play stupid low IQ basketball and shoot with wishes and hope instead of cimpetitive confidence

Booker is on fire.

Dallas has to respond better to bad calls. BUT the officiating tonight and last game against Boston has been extremely one-sided. FT discrepancy doesn’t lie unless fouls are intentional. Contact on one side is a foul while the same contact on other is not. A taught on one side is a technical but a taunt on the other is not. This has totally taken Dallas out of the game.

If Cuban keeps Kidd if they miss the playoffs again...he will officially be worse than Jerry Jones

You can't blame the refs every game. Phx was not getting calls in the 1st half either. The Suns are being more physical with the Mavs, and they didn't adjust. The refs reward aggressive teams more often than not.

The Mavs are a play in team at best without some surprising trade. There's just as good a chance they finish 11-12.
RE: Game 44: Phoenix Suns (25-18) vs. Dallas Mavericks (24-19) - Chicagojk - 01-24-2024
These bad losses keep piling up. Injuries or not…no excuse. Mavs need to start asking the hard questions.
RE: Game 44: Phoenix Suns (25-18) vs. Dallas Mavericks (24-19) - ThisIStheYear - 01-24-2024
The Mavs can’t bring Kidd back. The team has just quit. Luka walking around barely trying right now.
