Call it a scapegoat, Maxi has been horrific.

Maybe because it is your singular focus...Maxi has been bad but he isn't the only one. Kyrie's shot is off. Green is getting cooked by Tre Jones.

Great D by Maxi to close out the quarter.

Good for Maxi. Was worried about him in preseason and has been bad tonight but battled for two defensive rebounds and hit a three at the end of the quarter

OK Kleber finally! Makes a three and plays big inside on the defensive glass.

Green with the big three...Mavs survived these minutes with the terrible defensive lineup of Kyrie/Seth/THJ

Hardy and Powell were both questionable with injuries so hard to say if they’re completely out of the rotation

You do got a point.

I disagree with Green though.

Kyrie is 6/14 which isn't great, but 6/12 on 2's. He's been very quiet though. Needs like 6 more shot attempts. Perhaps the 4th he will wake up.

Maxi played some D, assisted Kyrie on a back door layup, and nailed a 3. Pretty good final 2 mins after, yes, pissing himself up till then.

Best stretch for him the entire game the last 3 mins in the 3rd.

Loved Green taking the initiative of taking that shot at the end of the quarter. He typically defers. Stat sheet won’t show he banked it in Smile

Doubt Green called glass, but I love to see evidence of juevos and I’ll take the points.

People watching for Wemby but they’re getting the Dereck Lively show whether they like it or not.

Side note. Kidd being mic'd up really shows how little "coaching" is happening. Mavs defense has three commands. Ice, stay in front, rebound...

If we can’t pull away from the Spurs without Wembayana playing at all…

Garbage shots from Luka and Kyrie. Work the offense and move the ball...
