Mavs @ Warriors Game #2
I didn't see a GDT started yet so thought I'd throw it up! If that's a problem or if someone else wants to do it, feel free to delete! No problemo!!
Game 2 tonight at 8pm CST.
Hopefully Luka isn't sick anymore (apparently - via Kevin Harlan)
Make open 3s, be aggressive on both sides of the ball, and communicate on D!
LETS! GO! MAVS!!!

Back in my day, if you post a GDT and the Mavs win, you post the next GDT as well and try to run up a streak. But once they lose, someone else starts the next one. So you're fine posting this as long as you'd be willing to continue to post provided they win.
It's been a few years since I've been here, so I don't know if this is a thing anymore. From the history though, it looks like it's still on.

Yeah I've noticed that as well in the past and recently. So, in that vein, I hope I'll be creating the GDT for Sunday! Go Mavs!

I was not surprised the Mavs lost game one...most teams that win a game 7 lose the next game one. The Warriors had days to prep to defend Luka, while the Mavs just had time to fly in from PHX and settle into their hotel rooms.
I expect Kidd will have game planned a better defense by now, and, for a change, we have enough defensive minded players to be able to execute it. I won't be surprised if we lose tonight as well, but in a 7 game series, you only have to win one on the road. These Warriors have been in 5 championship series and lost 2...both times to LeBron. Luka is the closest thing to the next LeBron. I expect him to figure out how to be more effective. But maybe not by tonight.
If the Mavs win tonight, they'll take this series in 6 games. If they lose, it will take 7.

I'm hoping to see less Luka on Wiggins (Mavs aren't wining that matchup defensively). On the flip side of that more Luka touches in the post because it'll be easier for him to beat double teams that way. He can distribute to open shooters when the warriors come down to double.
I'm hoping to see someone up front on our team match Looney's production or limit his production.
I get it we are weak up front but man it's not like we are playing Gobert or Ayton anymore.

I honestly think dude was so intimated by Gobert blocking his shots in that 1st round that he has become some timid inside now even on point blank layups

Yep, he looked sluggish because he was sick. He has that extra step already tonight and is getting by the first defender. Very positive sign.

I guess Kidd has decided to let Wiggins beat us as opposed to Klay or Steph
If that's the case Luka just has man up and play better initial defense on him until help comes

Exactly. If only Frank could shoot. He literally had 3 wide open shots with no one near him.

That’s the best shot he could come up with to end the quarter?

Luka should begin attacking at 6 seconds instead of 3.
No excuse for that type of shot.

Yeah I thought he could have went earlier to get a better shot
But he most of the time in that situation he's going to settle for the tough 3

I think Dinwiddie and Frank need to start joining the party by driving the ball.
i know they aren't good finishers buy they essentially allow the Warriors to rest and relax on defense when they jack up a three with the paint wide open for them
