Yeah for sure. Bad 4th quarter. They looked great for about 2.5 quarters of the game. They just need to get more consistent. I can't stand Beal. He was being a punk.
Perfect description. Mavs played like a playoff team from the 2nd quarter till about 6 minutes left in the 4th. Then the Wizards started to play super dirty, and the refs let most of it go especially with what Beal was doing. And the Mavs missed easy shots.
But they looked legit when they put distance between them and the Wiz. Luka with an incredible opener. Kristaps started super cold, but after his 0/4 start he went 7/12 which was fantastic.
I'd like for Curry to get more minutes. And it's quite obvious that we need a starting center, so that Maxi can be the backup instead of DFS. I hope Powell can be that guy, but I have doubts. Also honorable mention to Jackson for the Dirkie. His 2nd quarter burst along with Curry gave the Mavs a huge spark.
