GDT: game 8 - Mavs (3-4) at Nuggies (3-4) 9:00 FSSW
Late game
Nugs favored in Vegas
Both teams underperforming
Both teams come in at 3-4
Who underunderperforms more?
injury report
Burke - sick (non-Covid?) - did not travel
KP - knee - practicing but not cleared for full contact?

In light of TB not playing - I hope that Brunson continues his scoring the way he was the last 2 games.
Will we see WCS with the starting unit again tonight? - I hope we do.

If WCS does not start tonight, I'm going to pull my hair out! Wait -- I don't have any hair!

I think Burke being out is more ammo to bring THJ off the bench. The offensive firepower in the 2nd unit will be needed.
This could be a valuable experience for Willie starting but it's hard to ignore Bobans last effort vs Denver. Boby definitely expected the rocky mountains to be a little more rocky than that...John Denver is full of shit man.

Agreed, but there was something interesting i've heard from RC on YouTube on practice report.
Sometimes we think that its stupid to - for example send WCS out of the game for no apparent reason.. But Carlisle made a comment regarding the game vs Rockets. He said WCS asked him to get him out of the game after six minutes playing because he was so exhausted. As if he gave 150% into those First six mins of the game.. And then he send him back on court after some time.
So maybe this is happening more often to all players when RC makes some (for us) "irrational" decision or so we think..
I think that he will not change the starters until KP comes back next week. I am almost sure that WCS will be a starter along Luka.. Hopefully along KP and Luka too!

Does anyone else think it's unfair that Jokic isn't getting any MVP support?
Dude has been nothing short of amazing this year. Read a report where that he was embarrassed about how he started off last year out of shape and this year he made it a point to start off right.

I mean they have a losing record which is partly why but even Doncic has gotten some talk and we have the same record.
24-12-12 is a heck of a line to go with 61% shooting and 47% from three.

MPJ listed as doubtful but also completely cleared from Covid protocol apparently?

If we had a healthy KP I wouldn’t be worried about this game because I do think Denver got a little worse losing Grant. If MPJ can’t go I feel good if we get a repeat performance from Houston.

Pumped to be able to watch this game on TV and not some shitty stream. Not sure I’ll make it to the end of this one. These late tip offs are killer.

Too many extra passes seems to be the issue right now
They are passing up shots trying to make the extra pass

WCS 100%
Rest of team 0%
We just need three Willies and we’ll shoot 60%

Denver is getting in the lane a lot, while the Mavs are messing around the perimeter.

Luka with an open midrange jumper and passes the ball. He needs to just drive when we need a bucket.

On pace for a 32-88 loss
Keeping them to 88 is excellent

What a concept. You CAN shoot inside the 3 point line. Maybe even take it to the rim?

Why is Luka chucking step-back threes, now that Boban is in the lane? Now THJ chucks a three and misses while Boban is in the lane.
