MAVS 98, SUNS 105

I think your A- for KP is kind.  After making three of four in the first few minutes, he was 4 of 16 the rest of the way with some of the worst misses you'll ever see from an NBA player.  He tried to do too much and missed every single shot that he tried to create for himself except one.

Powell and KP were +6 when on the floor together

Frank and Burke were the bright spots for me.  I'm fine if Sterling never sees the floor again if it means more minutes for Frank (same for Willie when Maxi returns).  As good as Frank and Burke looked individually, the team fell apart in the minutes Brunson was off the floor (-12).  In the minutes Frank was on with Brunson the team was +5.

This team really needs Maxi and maybe even Maxi plus another Maxi-like player.  T. Young of C. Boucher would be nice so we could keep size on the floor in games that require it.  Powell's best role is probably backing up KP.  Phoenix is one of those teams that make it really tough to go single big.  Ayton made things really tough.  Heck, McGee got 10/8 in ONLY 12 minutes.  Obviously we missed Luka down the stretch, but Maxi would have been a big help in this game.

I get why they tried the zone as it felt like things were about to slip away. Maybe it was the zone's fault, maybe it was the Suns finally hitting their shots. 

KP's shot creation ability is really poor.

Frank needs SB's minutes, though I am fine with SB in a pinch for defensive effort.

The team without JB sucked ultimately....frankly the story of the season.

Mavs absolutely would have won with a healthy Maxi. I think he would have made that much of a difference.
