GAME 12: CHI (5-8) @ DAL (6-6) | 101-117 loss

[MaxiThreeba]

Why is it RC’s offense with no Luka is just attempting to do the same thing with worse players?

[mtrot]

At least Green will go hard to the basket!

[FunkBoreland]

So far, Bulls bench at season high 51 points!

[SwisherPrice]

Come on rooks, get these garbage time stats at least. Terry's shot just can't fall in the NBA so far

[Hypermav]

Serious question, should a sharp shooter rookie miss all these 3's?

[Thukydides]

I like Green and Iwundu, although they struggle shooting the ball. Green certainly has a place in this league longterm. WCS and Burke are abysmal. My lord

[FunkBoreland]

Lauri Markkannenn has been great finishing at the rim. I thought he was mostly a stretch shooter but his attack-to-the-basket has been incredible.

[mtrot]

Sad.  Mavs rebounding this game:

Mavs' three seven footers -- 16
Luka                               -- 16

You can say the same about all the rookies, including Green.

Terry was the Seth Curry replacement or so we were told/sold.

[ClutchDirk]

Apart from wide-open threes, every shot the Mavs take is about as high on the degree of difficulty as you can get.

And it still keeps happening...

[mtrot]

Another 60% FT shooting performance by the Mavs. Do they not have a shooting coach?

[FunkBoreland]

Mavs simply had a horrible 1st half. The second half they actually made it competitive, had baskets going in, had a good decent run bringing it to within 9. If the second half started 0-0, this would been decided by the last minute.

An ass kicking on the home floor to the Bulls.

That’s promising.

[SleepingHero]

An ass kicking on the home floor to the Bulls.

That’s promising.

Last year the lowly Knicks kicked our asses on our home court. Early on in the season too. 

Hopefully the Mavs wake the F up after this one.

[Hypermav]

[scottsp]

Not exactly reassuring, but ok.

[ClutchDirk]

Don't let half the team being out fool you...we need wholesale changes immediately...

[Kammrath]

I just want JJ and Burke running the offense instead of anyone else moving forward. That was SO enjoyable.

exactly...dfs, brunson and richardson haven´t scored a single point this week. trade them asap.
