PGDT: Preseason game 3 - Mavs (2-0) at Hornets (1-2) 5:30pm Bally Sports/ESPN
Mavs have all players available other than Tyrell Terry, who is away with his family. Is this a preview of what the regular season will look like?
Mavs split the season series last year (1-1).
Mavs play their last preseason game Friday vs. the Bucks.

Kidd said that he will play the starters > 20 min.

Now that RC is gone, the Mavs have discovered the fast break
It’s preseason, but it’s a hell of a lot of fun so far.

Crying at Luka and KP using the two man game. Defense sinks he kicks it around to the corner. Brunson steps in hits a baseline jumper.
Beautiful.

IT's a great sign when we can wreck teams when Doncic is cold

Want to see more aggressiveness from Green - he had one play where he got past his man then tried some weak pass that got intercepted. Loving the dunk, the defense, and the look off pass to KP.
He did take a pull up jumper on the baseline that didn't hit, but liked that he attacked the close out and took a shot.

Loving the ball movement, even if we ended up overpassing a couple of times. Defense has been pretty solid as well, not many open looks for them tbh

KP looks like a different player though which has nothing to do with preseason. The shackles are finally off.

Even the missed shots are confident ones. Players aren't hesitating.

Yes he needs to trust his off hand for a little left hand flip shot, and turn his body to shield the defender on a drive like that.

Just started watching, but it looks like the green light is back on for threes. 39 of 68 shots through 3 quarters are threes.

I’m guessing kp and Luka won’t be seeing the floor again as previously planned.

Man, we are so good and we're having fun.
Last year the only guy that looked like they were having fun was Luka and even that waned 1/3 of the way into the season

That was Hunt, right? I like him, but he’s too skinny, and there’s no space for him. Someone will pick him up, and make him a two way or something.

We would have won even if we didn't score in the second half
Moses Brown is a big,long, dude - I hope he sticks and that we keep developing him. If he can learn to knock down a 15-18 footer man...
Wow KP looked spry - even crashing the offensive boards. Still don't like him shooting off balance turn arounds (though he made it). I mean most guys he can just turn around and go straight up and shoot over them. Why do it while falling away and twisting at an angle?
Nice to see Frank hit a 3 - would really like to see him on the team - having a good defender is something different to bring to the table. Needs to work on his ball-handling but he wasn't terrible.

People are making too much of this either way. It's not whether you take them or not, it's how you take them that counts.

When's the game? All I saw was some G-League team go against the Mavericks. That couldn't have been the actual game.

It’s understandable that you’d think that but Mavs just make NBA teams look that way.

KP looked great. I know it's preseason but I loved how he moved the ball. Too often last season he would shoot basically anytime he caught the ball because he might not see it again for a long time. This season he touches the ball during almost every possession and he moves it when KP doesn't have a good shot
Great stuff

Hate to accidentally jinx this. KP looks...healthy. not saying Rick's system would have been successful with KP but the changes to his body and hoe they're using him is a big deal.
Iterally everyone looked good....again.

If this is the real KP, then it's going to be a good season.
Everyone just looks so care free. That's all I've wanted for a long time. Care free and fun.

Haha nice. I know it’s silly ranking stuff but Zach Lowe had his watchability rankings up and I expected the Mavs to be like 4th just for Luka alone but he had them 14th! Or some crap and he had Charlotte way high like 4th. I agree with him our designs are whack. But the occasional Ball to Bridges highlight ‘Oop is not enough to make them more watchable than Dallas or Portland who was also really low. Just Dame and Luka alone = better than Hornets.

KP looks great, he’s moving much better. And everyone appears to be having more fun. Nice to see us make an effort to run more. Got sick of walking the ball up every possession.

Watching a faster pace team sprint down the floor will be fun. KP looked great, and def looks to be moving better. He should be able to get some easy buckets if he runs down the floor and can post up deep in the paint. Just bury his guy under the hoop with his height.

I know it’s preseason, but you can’t look at the team’s energy and attitude and say letting Carlisle go was a mistake.

Anybody know the parade route for the preseason champs?
In all seriousness, I like how we look!

Carlisle let himself go. He knew it was time.

Lets just say I'm a happy camper now that he's gone and it was for the better IMO.
He might be a better coach than Kidd but when half your roster doesn't want to play for you or aren't motivated to play for you than it was just time to go.
But I've felt that way with RC for the last 3-4 years that players just weren't fully engaged with him anymore.
