GAME 7: ORL (2-6) @ DAL (5-2) | 107-106 win

[Mak]

Luka is back. 


Now we just need KP to show up and this’ll be a proper blowout.

We need the guards to get KP back into the game. Up to Luka/JJ to find KP spotting up. 

Or if Carlisle actually wants to run a play for him.

lol, ya know it’s okay to acknowledge a star player is having a bad game.

His last three possessions: missed a layup and then got blocked by Issac. then finally  hit a 3 to end the drought.

That was a damn selfish play by THJ

[903Mavs]

“Nice pass” THJ
-said no one ever

He is insufferable to watch

[TheSportyChannel]

THJ makes nice lucky 3 at times but he's a ball hog at times

Ah that three was fine. Got a good block. Had time, set his feet. Just missed.

But if you read my last post I already said KP was underperforming tonight. 

What I said wasn't covering for KP's bad performance tonight, its how KP gets back into the game. He doesn't create his own offense off the dribble. Its not his game. Guards setting him up and set plays is how he'll get back into it.

I know Isaac made a 3 earlier, but let him shoot that

[SleepingHero]

Ah, here's the bad THJ. Knew it was coming. 


Why does he wait for the defender to close out?? Its so frustrating.

[BigDirk41]

Wow Orlando in the bonus real early. Thanks THJ

[SleepingHero]

I really really dislike that Kleber is sitting down and Powell is staying in.

[Mak]

Pretty obvious Luka, Maxi and KP are just more comfortable playing with each other. Doesn´t really matter, who plays with them between Curry, Wright, DFS, Jackson and THJ.

Not sure how this is obvious at all. 

As far as striclty being confortable and having chemistry with each other — it’s obvious Luka, Maxi, and Powell are all very comfortable together. They’ve even played an entire season together already. 


KP is clearly super talented and we need to integrate him but he’s been the awkward fit thus far imo. It’s gonna takes some to make it all work.

THJ back to looking like a d leaguer.

[BigDirk41]

This is where I would like to see Boban and runa a zone since Orlando can't shoot.

[TheSportyChannel]

Dwight Powell ruined Luka nice pass. Never like Powell

[SleepingHero]

Powell got fouled there. Refs are trash. 

Powell then with the stupid frustration foul, 2 free points for Magic

[DrMav]

Not enough shooting on the floor with that lineup

Good here comes JJ

FWIW -
I think KP believes he can be that type of player and the Mavs are open to giving him the opportunity to become that type of player.

[SleepingHero]

LUUUKA WHAT A 3!

[BigDirk41]

Luka for 3

[mtrot]

It looks to me like Wright and Hardaway are afraid to take the open 3.
