Great rebounding, Dennis Rodman would be proud

That would be just an incredible otter win

Mavs are so clutch. They were really struggling in the first but really came up big in the final minute

RC was asked about Kleber, and he said he played well but then he was quick to point out, he ended up a minus and minus's get you beat. Uhhh only Dirk was a positive. Kleber was a minus 1 ffs. He has a serious obsession with plus minus, and oddly enough he ignores plus minus with certain players.

Maybe... Or maybe communism was just a red herring.

God Brooklyn tried their best to give us that game. Their defense amd decision making was atrocious down the stretch. Clutch point blank miss by Barnes

I like Jarrett Allen’s activity. Smart player for 19

I really hope Rick is just kidding because that sounds like something someone on db.com would say. Kleber did have 5 fouls, so I'll be OK with it this time. Otherwise, coach's sense of humor is a bit grating here.

We lost which is the most important thing.

Kleber kills it and then disappears. Classic Rick

Small ball otterly saves the day.

Rinse, repeat.

At least Powell is still playing well.

To be fair, Nets adjusted and Kleber was not effective in the second half.

My ambien kicked in, maybe I missed their noticable adjustments. You gotta see that adjustment coming is my alternate default respose to that also.

I thought Rick just forgot the Kleber was on the team.

One of our best losses of the season, it gave me hope again.

Kleber was out there for a while and never contributed for 3-4 minutes. Didn't get a rebound, steal, block, or assist for a long stretch. Didn't get the ball and/or score either. Didn't really make an impact after making a huge impact in the first half.

Some of that is on him. Some of that is on the Nets for adjusting. Some of that is the rest of the team, because he can't score if teammates don't look for him.
