RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - Jym - 02-25-2024 well PJ gets the Georgie tonight RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - juanc - 02-25-2024 The Mavs are tanking this game on purpose. Just dumb play after dumb play RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - ThisIStheYear - 02-25-2024 It’s been like watching a schoolyard team against a team that has an idea of what it’s trying to do, RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - DallasMaverick - 02-25-2024 (02-25-2024, 07:04 PM)juanc Wrote: The Mavs are tanking this game on purpose.

RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - SwisherPrice - 02-25-2024 No reason for the starters to still be in there...for a team that needs to stay healthy you can't risk any additional wear and tear when the game is clearly out of reach RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - GATA - 02-25-2024 PJ Washington is not a winning player. Should not be starting RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - DallasMaverick - 02-25-2024 I also have to give credit to Indy for an outstanding defensive plan. Stayed home against Luka. Never let the big guys roll for alley-oops. Did a nice job contesting threes. RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - ThisIStheYear - 02-25-2024 This was as close to must win as it gets without actually being must win. A 2-2 road trip is necessary for the Mavs to reach their goals. Not a good way to start with a game with no structure or scheme at all. Just a lot of one on one play and no defense. THJ needs to sit. Give someone else a chance. RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - Chicagojk - 02-25-2024 Skipped around the game but don’t like seeing Lively with so little minutes. Was he bad in the third? He is our future. Give him a long leash. RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - omahen - 02-25-2024 Watching the game it seems like Indy couldn't miss a shot. Than I look at the stats and Indy is 38 % at the time I am writing this and Mavs are over 45 %. 15 turnovers by Dallas, 11 of them coming from non Luka/Kyrie guys, which is inexcusable based on how little they have to do. THJ has been absolutely horrible.

Stayed home against Luka. Never let the big guys roll for alley-oops. Did a nice job contesting threes. Whenever Luka picked up his dribble, he struggled to find someone open. Seems like he was rarely doubled, but when he was, didn’t convert to easy buckets. Also seemed like his little pump-fake was ineffective. Most of his shots were tough and contested. JamesConway912 - JamesConway912 - 02-25-2024 Gafford -23 in 19 minutes Kleber -9 in 25 minutes Lively +9 in 14 minutes RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - Jakeospikez - 02-25-2024 PJW needs a little work with Shammgod on the handles but he'll be fine. RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - Chicagojk - 02-25-2024 Well Dallas got their beat down on an early Sunday game like OKC did against Dallas. Since then OKC has not lost. Let’s see how Dallas responds. OKC is the better team and Dallas has a rough schedule but hopefully they come out better their next few game. Lively needs more minutes, Tim less and PJ needs to get going. His offense has been pretty bad and his turnovers tonight were really careless RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - BigDirk41 - 02-25-2024 I think PJ will thrive here, but he looked like he didn't care today. I didn't like his effort or body language today. Hopefully he corrects that. RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - HoosierDaddyKid - 02-25-2024 You know RC is quite satisfied beating his old team.

They've got Cleveland next, then Toronto, and Boston I believe. Mitchell has been out, and they've dropped a couple, but I'm sure he'll be back. Two tough games and a pick em. RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - omahen - 02-25-2024 This version of THJ is really damaging. The only chance for "the other guys" to get serious touches is when one of Luka or Kyrie sits. But then THJ comes in and takes most of the shots while converting at a very bad rate. Not to mention his "defense". Phoenix won and NO has Chicago at home (02-25-2024, 07:28 PM)HoosierDaddyKid Wrote: They've got Cleveland next, then Boston I believe.

Than Boston RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - loki - 02-25-2024 Exum can't be back soon enough. Hopefully he's taking all of THJ's minutes before long. RE: Game 57: Dallas Mavericks (33-23) vs. Indiana Pacers (32-25) - Chicagojk - 02-25-2024 One more thing, that a reason we lost but let’s be careful with the maxi at center thing. He may very well close important games at center. He has had a good stretch. But his role needs to be mostly PF, I believe. Dallas front office (with the coach influence) have a lot invested in two centers (lottery pick and a future pick swap). Lively deserves a lot of room and Gafford needs at least 20 minutes. Maxi could see minutes at center but the organization made a big decision that they want to be biggger. Can’t fall in love overplaying the maxi at center. |
