Chicago big wings were just waltzing through our paint and Markkanen looked so good that a fantasy trade proposal of KP for him straight up would be rejected by Chicago. This has nothing to do with the offensive limitations, because Green and Iwundu were arguably better defensively than any of the missing guys.
There were a lot of live turnovers, I´ve never seen on a RC-coached team. This kinda killed the defense and gave the Bulls enough confidence to shoot bad shoots and hit them.
I really hate to point at the Refs, because I know I have blue-colored glasses on, but boy did I hate the calls against KP. After he was benched because of his 4th "foul" we never got anything going on defense again.
We also missed DFS, Wes is nowhere as good or even better than him on either side of the ball.
Giving Green minutes is a good thing, but he is a rookie and not really ready yet and you can see this sometimes. I loved how the other Mavs supported him though.
