Boban starting. Looks like the super fans get their way.

Probably want to try and force the Clippers to go big and play Zubac so they can exploit him again with Luka in PNR
Not a bad move see if KP/Boban can play up front together.
Curious to see if they will also play some zone now

Boban and KP in paint in zone would be nice on defense. Boban can post up and KP can play shooter on perimeter on offense.
I won't believe it until I see it.

Yep. That’s obviously the plan. Lue didn’t take the bait though, because Zubac’s not starting. The first few minutes will be crucial. Will Boban force Zubac in or will the Clippers come out nailing threes, and drive and kick Boban to death?

If the Mavs come out in a zone, I'd be more concerned with the officiating early. A couple of really bad homer calls in the paint can really throw a wrench in the gears if the bigs get a couple of quick fouls. Yes, I'm that cynical and practically expect it to happen.

Is this size and a zone? Am I dreaming that there was a change, (even if temporary)?

2 bigs in a zone doesn't look so crazy now, does it? Who'da thunk it?

No Zubac yet, but it’s working so far. The Clippers have missed a couple of layups. You must be loving this.

If they’re 80% on threes….that’s the zone risk

Mavs don't ever play these guys together, so while they've done well, they've also left some points off the board on some makeable plays.

not going to continue to shoot 80% from 3, but they can sure make 80% of their layups.

notice the Clippers can't miss from 3, but with 4 minutes 39 seconds left, the Mavs have the lead.

It’s pick your poison though with this zone. Every 3 has been wide open for the clips. Going to take some lights out shooting for the Mavs to pull this one off

Clippers are shooting lights out, and they still don't have the lead.

slower game will work to the Mavs' advantage playing a bigger lineup like this.
More rest for Boban which everybody is going to wonder about as the game progresses.

Mavs have to stop fouling when guys make one dribble to the rim

I would prefer WCS in there with Maxi instead of Powell tbh. Let's see if the Clippers start driving the rim with Powell in there.

Boban did his job. Porzingis may not like it, but he hasn’t shown up enough. Maxi and Powell as the replacements means they are doing everything to force the Clippers to play a center.

I can’t stand Hill as an announcer. Instead of watching the damn replay and understanding what I saw THREE times (Morris hitting Maxi in the throat), Hill says he didn’t see it

The difficulty of Lucas 3s compared to the Clips shooting with no one within 10 feet of them can only go on for so long though

Mavs shooting 60% might have something to do with that aka Luka

Can we please get Powell out of the game now? We need WCS and a return of the zone in the paint.

Pandemic P picks up his 3rd personal and is likely done for the half.

Luka isn’t even on the court and still has over half the Mavs points

That's why I don't trust Brunson moving forward
The Mavs need a better guy to run this offense

I wonder why RC isn't using WCS when KP got in foul trouble.

I don’t understand why WCS doesn’t get more minutes.
