Hopefully Powell can be decent against Ayton.
Really don't want to let the Suns start strong and get confident

I won't like seeing it if Ayton abuses Dwight in scoring at the rim but, OTOH, those are two point shots.  What Powell MUST not do is to foul him and facilitate Ayton getting and-ones/3 point plays.

Wow, according to FSSW broadcast, the Mavs' defensive stats from last season are abysmal. Sad  I knew they were bad, but I didn't realize HOW bad.
Wow, the Suns' are fielding a pretty impressive set of defensive guards!

JRich had a good contest there. Refs called it a foul but I'm okay with it.
I dont see why Luka can get destroyed but no call but Booker gets some contact and gets the call.

Yep. Mavs shooting looks very off.
3 airballs so far and 2 THJ shots that resemble JR Smith lol

Sigh....  Are the Mavs going to yet again devolve into an offense of primarily chucking up three pointers?  We seem to have no inside game at all.

The Suns just have our number for whatever reason the last 3 years. Each game against them we look like the Knicks.

Luka looks a little disengaged.

Lol Suns. You had so many chances to pull away. It's still only a 3pt game. When Luka wakes up.......

Our inside offense last year was completely predicated on Luka getting to the rim.

Luka is extremely out of shape.

Agree, time to flip that trend.  I feel pretty good about only being down three.

True that. Luka 0/5 so far and the Mavs are only down 3? Christmas miracle.

inside game or midrange?.... and we slouch and slump when the refs are being lazy with the calls instead of doubling down and making them call something. Nope lets shoot more 3s. Its 2K style lazy basketball.
