@coopmavs
One final pre season game before it tees up for real. Mavericks-Hawks will see Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving playing their regular rotational minutes (Likley through 3 qtrs), We're also likely to get our first look at Red Oak's Marcus Sasser as he tries to wedge his way into the rotation. @MPeasley pre at 6:30. Tip with @Bdameris and me at 7:10 @1053thefan

Gafford in drop defense isn't it. Pull up shooting drill for the Hawks.

I guess it takes some time to implement a new scheme. Effort is good but more often than not they end up in scrambling mode.

Hawks get calls on 3 pts and knocking down lots 3s. Are they that good? On paper looks like a bunch of no names to me.

Good to have real basketball back. Sort of I guess. Good for preseason

Getting in early foul penalty tends to really screw you up. 16 free throws by Atlanta. Mavs had some poor fouls. When u do that the 50/50 calls really hurt.

I like what I’m seeing from Sasser. He’ll get a lot of playing time this year.

2nd time Flagg is called for a foul on a 3-point attempt. Needs to stay on his feet.

They haven't been switching the pick&roll all game long and now with Sasser and Kyrie on the floor they start doing it.

Second quarter has been ugly. Offense with no fast pace looks really rough
Atlanta playing well. Hitting their threes. Mavs making some bad fouls which slows the pace hasn’t helped.
