Holy geez. That's the best tank lineup of all time.

So far, it’s not going how we hoped.

Well, they ARE playing Utah...

[Smitty]

Well, they ARE playing Utah...

They’ve certainly perfected the art of tanking. What, four or five years of it now? At least we’re not Jazz fans.

[ThisIStheYear]

Well. It’s hard to tank against a tanker. Terrible win.

Need to trade Klay ASAP! He is screwing up the tank!

[david75090]

The most effort, overall, by the Mavs all season.

Klay is never going to tank.  He's doing this season exactly what the Mavs got him for...which is be a threat from the outside...and he's like 16th or so in the league in 3's this year even though coming off the bench.  If you expect Klay to tank...you got the wrong guy.  But I think you were joking.  I'm just a long-time Klay fan.

Not watching the game but it looks like two of our two ways are playing good. Man, Cisse is making the most of his opportunities. He has really surprised me. I didn’t see it this summer. I still think he is a long ways away and I think the more he plays, teams will find his weakness. But he plays so darn hard. Really promising.

[FireNicoHarrison]

Trade all the vets, the don't tank.

Yes it was a joke.  What I'm really saying is he is playing too well for this teams tanking purposes, he deserves way better than the shit show of this season, and we could really use expiring for his contract, especially if we don't trade AD.

No PLAYER ever tries to lose. Dude was saying Thompson is hitting too many shots for the team to lose.

Yeah...the Mavs thing hasn't worked out for Klay.  He came over to play with Luka and Kyrie and that blew up on him last season.  I'd like to see him go to a contender that could use some outside shooting.

Yeah...I get it.  I'm a long-time Klay fan from his initial days with the Warriors.  I want to see him do well...and contribute.  If he's going to get traded...I hope it's to a contender that can use some outside shooting.

Worst blow out win ever

[RBB]

No matter what...it's been a frustrating season so far and it's nice to see the Mavs put together a good game. They have more games where they go 19-45 (so far tonight) from 3...they should win more games. Last night they were horrible from 3-land.

[Mavs2021]

Only one win ahead of Memphis. They are dangerous. Also nights like tonight should answer whether this draft is special. We still have half the season left and teams are pulling this crap left, right and center.

[myconsumerclub]

Jeremiah Robinson-Earl played how was that possible

[soog]

What are they doing…? Their top 7 players are out right now… I’ve never been more disappointed in a Mavs win.
