Not sure why but the spacing was terrible last night. So strange to see guys running into each other all over the court. Keystone Kops out there.
I haven't checked but the Mavs took what had to be a season high of long 2s.
Lakers just played 2 v 2 in the paint and stayed home on shooters. Mavs looked tentative, small and a step slow.
Dwight Howard was a beast and Boban didn't show up.
Doncic was clearly not himself.
Porzingis post ups make me cringe. Turnover machine. He didn't finish well or draw fouls.
Wright & Curry were forced to be first or second options. Neither played like they wanted that responsibility.
Brunson was out of the early rotation and didn't respond well to ball pressure.
Jackson's shot doesn't look close and his body language is terrible.
Lakers put the Mavs away with size and physicality on offense and smart pick & roll defense took away shots at the rim and threes.
Overall this was a total dump of a game and looked like most of the team had a big Sat night in LA.
