Man I get so sick of Powell
IT's like they keep try to justify extending him that damn contract.
This dude wouldn't see the floor for about 20+ other teams in the NBA if he wasn't in Dallas

I don't think Kidd gets enough credit to have this team winning games despite being the worst defensive rebounding team in the NBA and one of the worst FT shooting teams in the NBA.
That's a bad combination to overcome on nightly basis.

Powell is so goddamn awful. Like, I find so many fans that don't give him the shit he deserves. Get rid of him already. I would rather play Lawson at center than Powell. Or anyone really.

Great offense game
It?s just our defense and rebounding (-12!!!!) that lost us this game

Sit the damn starters and play Hardy. We aren't going anywhere this season. Develop the youth.

Shaq was a laughingstock when he shot 42% from FTs
Luka has a 17% game going

I don't know how anyone in the Mavs FO can justify Powell being on this team.
That last defensive rebounding possession by him was fucking pathetic.

Maybe Luka should sit for a while
35% 0% from three (0-5) and 17% on FTs
Hard to get worse

IT's actually embarrassing that he continues to not value FT shooting
Youd, think he get a personal trainer like Dirk to help fi these things.

Ha! What youth? Poorly coached Hardy or ?
We need to rest the starters because we?re half way through the season and Luka is playing like a broken down Hyundai

Mavs have a golden opportunity to finsish with a top 4 seed this year but it's like they don't give a shit about taking advantage of the weak west this year.

Fuck Kidd for even having this team in the game to start the fourth. Now THJ is hurt and they have a game tomorrow which will almost certainly be a loss if Luka has to sit

Green when he gets back. Even Lawson because why not.
I seriously am contemplating not watching anymore games if Powell gets minutes. I can't watch that guy anymore. He has to be the worst rebounding big man in the history of the sport and that's not his only serious flaw.

Unfortunate the west is so weak this season, this is not a top 8 team in a normal season.

THJ out tomorrow
Wood likely still out
Luka has been pulled for a lot of b2Bs
Still no Green, DFS, or Kleber
Mavs May start the worst starting five the NBaA has ever seen.

Yeah so Hardy will play 27 minutes tomorrow being tired from a back to back and then be blamed when he doesn't save the team from the obvious loss. This has already happened.
Meanwhile, the guy who shouldn't be on the Knicks is destroying the league right now. I was over the Brunson stuff for a while, but it's basically impossible to ignore now. Can't let that kinda talent walk for nothing.

Just hilarious to me the way Kidd thinks. They know Luka will sit the b2b so they keep the starters out there down 20 until the 6 min mark in the 4th.
I get trying to make a run but you continue to grind down Luka and he?s clearly playing his worst game of the season, and you decide yeah more of this.
It?s about to get real rough for this team now. Low key expect them to drop around 7-10 seed.

This team can't defend the pnr and can't get rebounds. It's fn disgusting to watch.
Make moves

Luka listed as questionable. Don?t think it?s worth playing him tonight. Wood is also questionable

Stop playing Powell. Play McGee. Even if Mcgee is dumb and terrible, he is still a better defender than Powell.

1000% Powell is fine as a back up. I'd also dump the valley in to McGee in offense to jeep him engaged on defense and rebounding. He can actually get some buckets.
