The question is how do you try and lose against the Kings? Play Mejri at pg?

Not gonna lie. If we win this game I'm going to be rly sad for the next 10 days. With the sole exception of watching DSJ shit all over ppl in rising stars and dunk contest.

Same for me.
This is a MUST lose, especially after we beat SAC in SAC 5 games ago. If we win this game, there's virtually no chance we finish with a worst record than SAC this year. Also, if we win this game, in all likelihood we go into the break with the 6th worst record at the break. Oy vey!
If we lose, then we can go into a tie with ATL for the 2nd worst record in the league & only be a half game back of PHX. We better lose this game!!

Sit Barea, Barnes, and McDermott if he shows up. Matthews if he's making shots. Anything. This is a must-lose game

Never fear, we will find a way to lose the game in the last 4-6 mins.

I have a feeling we're going to win. Which likely means we're going to lose. You're welcome.

Who will be the Queens of Tanks tonight? Will it be the Queens of the Far West or the Kings of the South West? I bet the Queens of All Tank Queens get a spanking from the Kings of the South West.
Mavs - 107
Queens of Tanks - 97

Optimal tanking strategy imo.
You limit DSJ, Barnes, Wes, Powell, Dirk, McDermott under 25 minutes. You keep Barea & Ferrell at 10 min, and you let Collinsworth, Kleber, and Mejri all see 20-25+ minutes. Plus, you get Jalen Jones & Motley time on the court.

Not so fast. Mavs haven't won yet in their City jerseys. That's a good sign for us at least.

I seriously can't for the life of me see anything I like about collinsworth. There has to be someone out there more worthy of the roster spot.

He's physical. I like how he gets up into his man when he's defending & doesn't give him any air to breathe. He's a good rebounder for his size & I've seen him make a few dishes here or there.
I'd like to see more of him to form a more educated opinion. I don't think his upside is much more than 3rd string PG, but I don't see him as having nothing to offer, either.

I stand corrected he has one use.
I'm sure he could be a 3rd pg somewhere but we are using him as a wing instead of using jalen jones who is an actual wing. When Collinsworth gets it in a drive and kick situation he doesn't shoot, because he can't, so he drives again and almost always the possession ends in over-passing and shitty shot.

I thought he looked pretty good playing defense on Harden the other night.

I'd say DSJ is shooting too many 3's but I'm not sure what I'm watching is a NBA team anyway.

Yeah. SAC has been clogging the lane & contesting shots very well this game. DSJ hasn't been one to let that stop him in the past, but he's settling for shots tonight.

What's the point of having Dirk and Barea out there now?

I'm guessing Dirk and JJB are playing because it's a home game and they are still fan favorites who want to be seen on the court. Honestly, the most enjoyable part of the game was watching ZBo drive on Dirk in slow motion as was stated more than once and then Dirk taking a 3 point shot over Vince. It's like watching the Granpa League and I was loving it!

Oh yeah, I posted that midway through the 4th qtr. I was referencing why were JJ & Dirk playing with 6 min to go in the 4th & the Mavs down by 17 pts or whatever it was. I honestly wasn't even worried about the Mavs making a comeback (I guess I should of been as it turns out). I was legit wondering why the young guys weren't getting PT in a blowout loss.
