Damnit

We will have to ask @"KillerLeft" about DFS after the game. As good as expected? Even better? Worse?

Let’s F’ing Go!!!

Sterling Brown is a good luck charm in this game....+25 in 13 mins!

It can be both true at the same time that our defense has played well and the Warriors offense has played poorly. Curry is ice cold

[dirkfansince1998]

Mavs still have no idea how to solve double teams and traps.

Luka down. Cannot catch a break.

[Kammrath]

Luka hurt.

Imagine how good DFS would be if he were a "starting level player".

Is there anywhere that is streaming the jersey retirement?

Wow 3 teams in a row held below 90 points
When was the last time that happened? 20 years ago?

I guess that Luka/Brunson backcourt works defensively

and hopefully nothing too serious with that Luka ankle

[dirkfansince1998]

Mavs small ball defense without a traditional big like KP, Moses or Boban is great. Can create more on ball pressure. Quicker rotations allowing for more switches, traps and doubles. Better close outs allowing them to collapse on drives. And all players are really active in the passing lanes.
Mavs defense against the Curry pick and roll/hand off action was great. Really refreshing to see a more agressive scheme after years of drop coverage.

There was no KP. I am not concerned if two of those three are on the floor. All three of them, this is where I have problems. Same as Luka-KP-THJ defense doesn't work. 

Great Mavs game. Interesting enough offense still bad, but defense is really great these last two games. GSW also played great defense, though

Effort, effort, effort!  Help defense was sloppy at times (a few of those on Luka).  Curry also had some really sloppy plays that weren't defense related.

Last 13 games!

I think Luka/Brunson is a bigger problem on offense. Both have no catch and shoot game. Instead of taking the shot they are slowing things down and reset the play.

SOOO much this. They both CAN catch and shoot, but they do it so infrequently and totally let the D get reset. Super frustrating.

Jalen passed on taking a few open threes in the first half.  He started pulling the trigger in the second.
