Kyrie Irving is amazing man. Incredible effort and defense there.

Seeing PJ hit a transition pull up above the break 3 makes me really happy. Can really tell he worked on that this last offseason.

Naji Marshall has brought Jose Alvarado's signature move back from NOP. 2 BIG steals using that sneaky move. Good stuff.

The lead is almost gone. Mavs are damn good at blowing huge leads.

Kidd allows FOUR uninterrupted threes before he calls a timeout. WHY????

Thunder got them all the EXACT same way. Mavs came out sleep walking and just gave away open looks. Offensively played with zero energy. Who does this team think they are?

Kidd thinks he's Phil Jackson or Steve Kerr and his team can play through anything. He's WRONG!!!

No defensive effort whatsoever from this team. Embarrassing.

*every night.

By contrast, Kleber has done a STELLAR job tonight of closing out to contest perimeter shots. Powell tried to match his effort ONE TIME and pulled his groin or something.

Yeah but then you have Kleber performing like he's Ben Simmons on offense on the other end. Not rolling all the way through, not cutting, turning down wide open layups. 

He looks the most unplayable he has ever looked in his entire career.
