Game 72: Dallas Mavericks (42-29) vs. Sacramento Kings (42-29)

[Jason Terry]

I think the NBA’s new officiating emphasis allowing more physical play is helping the Mavs. It wouldn’t have pre trade but Gaff and PJ are pretty physical, and Luka is the most physical point guard in the NBA. It probably won’t go over well with Luka, but if it’s officiated consistently on both sides, let them play.

It definitely helps us. Luka has not complained to the refs at all in the last 4-5 games. I think this is the longest stretch of his career and he deserves some major credit for keeping his composure and not being such a baby
