To be fair, the Mavs are missing their 7'3 unicorn who definitely helped in that area. Carlisle should put in Boban, but is refusing to for some reason.

Terrible Timmy back at it. This team is winning nothing with THJ playing #3 scoring option role.

THJ laying the biggest egg of his entire career.
Mavs offense has died.
If I was Carlisle I'd take out THJ and go Luka/Burke/DFS/Maxi/Boban.
Shake things up

Again, The Mavs are all perimeter, and no Mavs following up our shots.

Live by the three, die by the three. It's Rockets Basketball and why this will never work in the playoffs

I can't wait to get better players around Luka to come back next year and kick the Clippers butt.

And still no Boban! How could you not at least try him in this second half? You know what they say about continuing to do the same thing and expecting different results.

That timeout was about ten points too late. Players were hanging their heads for several posessions.

Well. If this is the last game of the year, I'm glad the role players are shitting the bed so freaking hard. Should make Donnie's job easy if he has to choose to keep some of them.
THJ, Wright, Jackson are definitely must-go. Powell can be added to that group solely because of his contract. Before this series, I wouldn't have traded Kleber short of a star, now I'm more open to that convo. DFS, Kleber, Brunson can all be had for the right price. Only Luka, KP, Boban, Seth, heck even Burke should be back for next year for sure.

Isn't one of the options to score in a 5 out is to slash to the basket?
It seems were stationary outside, and the double team to Luka is when the closest player makes the cut in. Haven't seen that at all.

Luka needs to learn not to keep whining to the refs. It's not going to get him any more calls.

The one thing you could do to force the Clips to collapse that perimeter defense a bit would be to post up Boban down low, but RC refuses.

Short of the miracle comeback, I'm going to be conclusively done with RC.

The Wizards would beat us with this shooting, much less the Clips
