RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - Mavs2021 - 12-17-2022 Watching all the bandhandlers on the floor and not the insufficient interior defense by Powell, Bertans and McGee. It´s so obvious that if they want to win this year, they need to find another center and just let Hardy/Ntilikina/Kemba on the floor. It should be Doncic/Dinwiddie/Ntilikina Green/Kemba+Hardy (splitting games/time) THJ/Bullock DFS/Kleber Wood/Powell + PF/C (Saric makes some sense here) RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - KillerLeft - 12-17-2022 Rough turnaround there for Hardy. Bad shot, followed by losing his man in transition. RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - Jym - 12-17-2022 (12-17-2022, 08:28 PM)KillerLeft Wrote: I’m sorry. I know Wood makes mental mistakes, but I think his defense is pretty GOOD when he’s locked in. yeah just need some solid effort needs to grab a few of the rebounds that would have been an offensive rebound last year and that can kind of negate some of the layups his errors will give up RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - KillerLeft - 12-17-2022 Ugh. McGee is in. Was hoping Wood would go 48. So far, this hasn’t blown nearly as hard as I expected. RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - sterlingmallory - 12-17-2022 We know Hardy can score, but can he do anything else? That steal was pretty good. I'm looking to see if he can do literally anything besides score. Lots of guys can get buckets, he'll have to do more than that to really stick in the league though.

Was hoping Wood would go 48. just wish Luka was out there Seems about as healthy as he can be at this point of the season. I don't get the decision to skip this game at all. RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - Mavs2021 - 12-17-2022 Seeing the positive impact of Kemba, the negative impact of McGee, and the Knicks now 9-5 with Grimes starting: if Kemba/Noel/Grimes for Brunson was ever on the table, the MBT better bury all the evidence. RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - sterlingmallory - 12-17-2022 I thing I know for sure: Theo Pinson is not an NBA player. Pure vibes guy. RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - Mavs2021 - 12-17-2022 Pinson is about as useful as a cheerleader on the floor. Get Dorsey or Wright his minutes.

Yeah, I owe @"ItsGoTime" an apology for that one. I really thought Pinson would be an asset on nights like this when they needed a long guard/forward from the deep bench. He has been the worst player on the court tonight, so far. He wasted a few rare good McGee defensive possessions. RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - Jym - 12-17-2022 the effort is there. just a lack of talent. feels like a 15 point Cavs run could happen at any moment RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - KillerLeft - 12-17-2022 That wood pass to bullock was gorgeous. RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - Mavs2021 - 12-17-2022 I think they actually hit a home run with Kemba. Some things are so obvious. There is a problem, if you pay a 33 year old four time All-Star on a bum knee 40/4. There ain´t a problem, if you pay him a one year veteran minimum to play 15 MPG off the bench. So often fans and even GMs can´t separate between the player and the contract.

RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - KillerLeft - 12-17-2022 I used to really want Lavert in Dallas, but he’s a poster child for “that guy on that other team isn’t as good as you think he is.” RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - SwisherPrice - 12-17-2022 Kemba is not done! He's showing it all with the quickness, the speed...this isn't just a fluke shooting night where a player hits a ton of threes. He looks like he still has a ton of game left.

Totally agree, but unfortunately I don’t think his knee will cooperate like this every night. RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - Chicagojk - 12-17-2022 Kemba has been great. It is only one half, but liked his minutes much better than Hardaway's. Different players. But he looks in control out there. There is a tough minutes crunch, but if he plays like this..... RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - Jym - 12-17-2022 I forgot Mitchell was even out there. You'd think he would want to take out some revenge for last season RE: GAME 30: DAL (15-14) @ CLE (19-11) | 7 PM - BolsDamols - 12-17-2022 Kemba Walker do not go gentle into that good night, rage, rage against the dying of the light! |
