Mixing up the plays. McGee went out of his way to knee Luka in the thigh/quad.

Another series where the other team's backup center would be a major starter on the Mavs

Wow finally a good defensive possession.
Pathetic by Brunson. Doesn't get back after forcing a bad shot.

Shamet does this:

And it's not a travel.

Can't even run good offense against the Suns' bench. Just 1 on 5 ISO ball

He's a free agent.

Defense is the story for this game. Or rather the absence of it. On the other side of the court I cannot describe how much I hated Brunson and Dinwiddie's effort this game. Holy shit the difference between the Utah series and this one.

Ayton kind of neutralizes what we do well on defense.

Their backup Center just ran the fast break better than our #2 offensive option.
I’m piling on JB but it’s not a lie.

Booker made 2 of his last 8 after hitting 5 of his first 9.
Jalen hits last 3 after just 2 of his first 9.
Starting to figure things out.

Phoenix is just a meaner, more hard nosed team. Where’s the Mavs Javele?
RE: GAME 1: DAL (0-0) vs. PHX (0-0)| 9:00pm CST - SleepingHero - 05-02-2022
The fact we can't convert ANY fast break this game shows this team thought they were closer to PHX than they were. No focus. Gotta be better.

Add in a pinch of overestimating the quality of Utah as an opponent.

Yeah it´s almost like the Suns are the best team in the NBA and Utah is not.
Reality check. Talent wins. No proper asset management, self-sabotaging all these draft positions (#1 pick in January in the Tatum draft --> #9 in the end) and screwing up every draft for 20 years, except one (Doncic/Brunson), ain´t winning you a title.

Putting on a clinic in not rebounding

Interesting to watch them with DFS & Luka as the bigs.

I mean, we are playing Dorian at the 5.

Good block by Luka.

Fucking dumb, Reggie.
RE: GAME 1: DAL (0-0) vs. PHX (0-0)| 9:00pm CST - MaxiThreeba - 05-02-2022
Reggie with a couple of dumb fouls back to back
