GAME 1: DAL (0-1) @ PHX (1-0) | 105-107 loss

[dirkfansince1998]

Doesn´t matter who they are putting on the floor right now...one tov after another. Green with his best Simmons impression. Not even looking at the rim and instead of finishing the layup he throws it away.

[cow]

What the hell Josh, turn and take a layup attempt.

[Razzmatazz_Hopskidillydoo]

Green cuts and passes it out. LOL.
So much for the hot potato talk.

[SkenfromLMF]

Get through the qtr with the lead... Finish this qtr strong as opposed to the end of the half.

[Razzmatazz_Hopskidillydoo]

There are no plays for Wood?

[KillerLeft]

@"mvossman" it’s the first game, so no rush to judgement, but there doesn’t seem to be an ounce of chemistry between Kleber and Wood, so far. I have much preferred Wood on the floor without Kleber tonight.

[SwisherPrice]

All it takes is the second ball-handler in the rotation to get into foul trouble and the offense turns into garbage. We all knew this was going to be a problem when they lost Brunson and missed out on Dragic but they decided to not do anything else.

[cow]

Not really happy with Kidd either.  You need to settle the troops down.

[MarkAguirreWrathofGod]

Luka is 9-9 and we are 61% from the FT line

[MaxiThreeba]

The Mavs are an NBA team with two guys on the entire roster that can dribble a basketball.  That’s impressive.

[dirkfansince1998]

Three turnover in the first half. Six in the last eight minutes. I don´t trust them to make a pass right now.

---

Finally a stop. Good defense from Maxi and Luka.

[cow]

Call it both way refs.

[SkenfromLMF]

Losing Dinwiddie was huge to the 3rd... did what needed to be done to close out the qtr and now you get Din back.

Luka gonna get minutes tonight

[Razzmatazz_Hopskidillydoo]

Wood makes things happen. Luka should involve him more and not play hero ball so much when his shot isnt falling.

Yeah if we lose I'm going to put a lot of blame on him
Absolutely had to call a timeout earlier and get Wood in there quicker

Nervous that SD has sat so long. Usually ice cold when that happens. Need a 3rd ball handler in a bad bad way!

Could be the story of the season. If one of them misses more than a couple of games the Mavs are in trouble.

[BolsDamols]

Wood is a much more physical presence than KP, its like night and day.

Same as their free throw shooting, its seems like

[dirkfansince1998]

Watching Powell shoot FTs was hard enough. I am not ready for a season with Wood and McGee.

CW!!!!!
