If he would take games like this serious the Mavs would be in a way better spot when it comes to regular season success. Just need to watch 2-3 minutes and you know what kind of Luka you are getting today.

Hardy with a beautiful move.
Luka didn't even run back to offense! How gassed is he??

Kyrie basically saved the Mavs that quarter. Gafford's activity is still there and intense, just couldn't get some layups to go through.
Luka just doing the bare minimum right now as is usual against a bottom feeder.
Overall a slightly disappointing quarter, though if Gafford's layups went through this is a 10 point lead.

Basically saw everything good/bad that we can expect from Gafford. Incredible work rate on the offensive board. Great hands. Mediocre touch. Really struggling as the drop defender in the pick and roll. Avdija went right at him multiple times.

This is very frustrating. What is Kidd doing with this 3 guard lineup? Did they trade for PJ to sit on the bench??
Timmy is doing everything he can to be benched right now. Sit the dude.
THJ is shooting the Mavs out of the game against the freaking Wizards.
Insane.

As usual. No sense of urgency. Might as well watch the allstar game. Similar energy on defense. Similar shot selection on offense. Not even trying to run any kind of offense. Just chucking away from 3 or trying to finish over multiple defenders.

Luka stood up and yelled at the coaches. Time out instantly called. Timmy has missed 7 straight shots? He's 0 for 8. At what point do you STOP giving him chances??
Why are we running this small lineup when we traded for PJ? Our size is what won us the last game???????????

Tim with the bricks
Luka with the complaining
Gafford just letting his former teammates score at ease
My goodness. Really hoping for Kyrie to save the day

Is PJ in the doghouse ALREADY?
This is disgusting basketball.
How many threes is this team going to shoot?

Is there some kind of rule that forces them to shoot withing the first 5s of the shot clock?

The Kleber/Washington lineup looks great, imo.

THANK YOU JOSH
FINALLY. WHAT A FINISH
Luka with a transition 3 for no reason. Doesn't run back and instead reaches.
Result and 1 for Kuz. Its these swings that separates the good from the mediocre.
GREAT close out by PJ there. Forces the travel on Deni!!!!!

I feel like Luka’s worst transition defense moments are right after misses he’s embarrassed about.

How many times are they going to run up the floor only to take a contested 3 with 20s left on the clock.

You heard Derrick. I think the message was clear.
