Jason Kidd says the plan is to start the "big lineup" against the San Antonio Spurs.

This was the group the Dallas Mavericks started in their final two preseason games:

G Cooper Flagg
G Klay Thompson
F P.J. Washington
F Anthony Davis
C Dereck Lively II

2 quick fouls on PJ and they are ticky tack ones at that.

[SleepingHero]

Mavs defense has been the real deal so far.

Spurs are getting away with so much contact on the other end.

[Deebo]

Need pg. not going to win playing helter skelter. Big slow lineup not going to work.

[SleepingHero]

I am genuinely shocked at how polished Nemby has looked so far.

[Deebo]

Things better with real pg. Flagg not playing much. Needs play better with d and rebounds. That should be his focus

[SleepingHero]

Wrapping up a 40 minute first quarter. Thanks Tony Brothers for the 500 FTs

Wemby is insane. Plays like a SF.

[Deebo]

Wemby so annoying with his 8ft skinny ass. Need be physical and foul him hard. His body won’t last full season

I hate the big lineup already.

Nembhard looks good on offense, but the only thing that really worked was the DLO/AD two man actions.

Marshall first off the bench was interesting. He looked good.

Flagg looks good…on defense.

Lively playing well, but three fouls in the first is dumb.

AD is a difference making player on defense, and a great offensive player if used right, but elbow isos for him aren’t the basis for a real NBA offense.

[Deebo]

Klay looks like trash

[KillerLeft]

Oh yeah, and Thompson has looked ROUGH so far. Forcing everything.

[SleepingHero]

Oh yeah, and Thompson has looked ROUGH so far. Forcing everything.

Looks like he keeps trying to draw fouls but isn't getting the calls.

To be fair he definitely got hit on like 2 of his attempts.

[HoosierDaddyKid]

Klay looks like trash

Megan the Stallion has sapped that energy.

[SleepingHero]

The offense is so bad man. Zero flow or plan. No one getting good looks. Everything looks hard.

[GATA]

This is ugly as hell. Don’t like Davis at all on this team

[Deebo]

How many layups dlo gonna miss

[Deebo]

Sitting Flagg way too much. Get him a shot
