Luka really has to speed this offense up. Hell get his going slow but no one else can get going

All of them are playing like ass tonight too. Powell is so bad you can’t even play him with Ayton on the floor.

63%/57%
And we’re shooting 42% and 46%
Our threes are raining but that defense

Honesty if Luka is that passive and stupid, we don’t deserve a win

Looks like we ran into a better version of the Clippers defense
Suns are loaded with long wing defenders, and they have legit big who can actually shoot
Not sure Brunson or Dinwiddie can really combat that size

Powell has to be worst defensive big in the NBA
He's either giving up an open shot or not boxing out on the boards

If we can’t get a passable big this off-season, we’re in trouble
Suns know we don’t have help so they figured us out

Had it down to 6 and gave it all right back. Luka playing hero ball. Only in this because Maxi is on tonight.

Looks like we are right back to where we started
Luka vs the entire other team
I'm not sure that trade has done anything now accept clear up a little more money because Bertans and Dinwiddie are reverting back their Wizzards days

With Paul, Ayton, and Booker on the floor, the Suns can get any shot whenever they want.

I picked Suns in 5. Maybe that was too generous towards the Mavs

Not many do. Chris Paul just shot 14-14 in a series clinching game. He’s playing the best basketball of his hall of fame career.

We got rid of KP only to add two more bad contracts on top the bad contracts of THJ and Powell
Nico needs to work some magic this summer

Just utterly pitiful. Mavs has been a second half team under Kidd, so I will give them a chance to show that they care.

Would you bench Powell and insert Kleber as the starter for the rest of this series?
I would even give Chriss a test run at some point

is anyone surprised by what's happened? i'm not. I mean going in the Suns are heavy favorites and they're showing why. Mavs need some bad shooting by suns and they need to hit every wide open shot to stand a chance. I'm surprised we're only down 13 with brunson and dinwiddie not contributing.

Regular season is all about showcasing your strengths
And you’re right, playoffs are about your weaknesses and we have plenty.
Most notably we don’t have a big worth shit

Luka 2-9 but he never meets a possession with 20 second on the clock that he doesn’t like to shoot them

Even Luka acknowledged it saying we have to play perfect games to win

Seems like every 3 is nearly dropping. Otherwise it’s 20+

Can't have Dinwiddie not score and expect to win. Series will be a sweep if he and Brunson turn into duds.

Too bad refs hate us so much there’s no home cooking when we get to Dallas

Brunson may be the only guy we have who hasn’t been disappointing in the playoffs and he’s on the bench with fouls and has Bren totally underwhelming

Honestly Kidd should have tested guys in the third
We’re just not playing with any intensity and none of us think plying Luka 48 min would give us a chance

No point in getting too upset as we knew we were outmatched. The Jazz series was the season for me. Pretty great season considering the midseason trade.
Phoenix just has our number. Hope we in game 2.
