You mean nobody plays defense to the ineptitude of the mavs

Boston. Cleveland, Milwaukee, Miami, Chicago, LA Lakers and Memphis will all play some form of defense especially in 4th qtrs when the urgency picks up.

So yes its an offensive tailored game but there are still some teams who will contest shots in the paint and close out to 3 point shooters when it matters

Dallas just so happens to be one of the teams that does neither.

[Dallas41]

Powell doesn't contest a single fucking shot at the rim

Dude doesn't even jump half the time to try and alter the shots

[JTmoney2424]

At home vs a bottom 3 team in the NBA. How low can this team go and how is Kidds job not on the line anymore? This team clearly has checked out on him.

[Dallas41]

Derek Harper

"Mavs are 5/20 on threes and yet they continue to shoot them instead of attacking the basket"

[JTmoney2424]

Christian Wood is the king of dumb fouls. Such a low iq player.

Dude has been losing teams his entire career

When you start adding guys like that to your locker room winning doesn't become a priority

Those types of players only care about their numbers and their money

At this point I'm all for playing guys like Pinson, Frank and that other rookie pg because they all play hard

[Dallas41]

Hornets played last night

So I guess this was another schedule loss for Dallas unless the hornets decide to tank in the 4th

[Dallas41]

Luka sometimes pisses me off

He never bothered to look for for kyrie on that last possession because he was determined no matter what he was going to Jack up the shot


That's why I said in that lakers game kleber would have never got the ball had that been Luka

[BPo001]

Does Frank not practice 3?s?

[BPo001]

How the fuck does Hardy not get more minutes? Guy is a walking bucket.

[BPo001]

Frank iso? Wtf was that

[DevinHarriswillstart]

Hardy's 27 points last game gets him 17 minutes.

But all the wheels have fallen off so whatevs.

[Dallas41]

As soon Powell, Luka and kyrie get back on the floor together the lead goes back up

They trio just doesn't work together especially when you need stops

[JTmoney2424]

Luka with another dumbass TO.

[BPo001]

Lukas careless turnovers are killing us

[Dallas41]

Luka with another dumb ass turnover

[BPo001]

How do the refs miss that push in the back of wood?

[BPo001]

This team is fucking pathetic.

[Dallas41]

Small lineup no zone defense

26% 3 point shooting but let's keep jacking them up

[BPo001]

Hardy?s face foul the guy?

[Dallas41]

Lol


Now Luka drives

Dude could shoot 60% every night if he didn't settle for 3's so easily

[BPo001]

No travel?

[Dallas41]

Notice any time Powell is out team makes a run

But they simply won't limit this man's minutes to under 10 per game

[JTmoney2424]

They choose not to foul a horrible foul shooter and Smith puts the game on ice. This shit is inexcusable.

[blessednegr0]

I don't see how McGee just rides the bench. Tired of getting killed on the boards.

Luka/Kyrie/Bullock/Wood/McGee

Kidd is dumb.

[FreshJive]

This seems like the kind of loss that gets a coach fired.

[DevinHarriswillstart]

Don't you feel like Kidd wants to get fired? Guy is basically begging for it.

[Dallas41]

Fuck this low b-ball iq team and it starts with Luka

Dude comes out jacking up bad 3's and making lazy passes to set the tone

Then plays with a sense of urgency late in the 4th qtr by bullying people in the paint

It's mind-boggling that he settles so often for poor 3's when he can literally hit 60% of shots inside much easier over most defenders

[DevinHarriswillstart]

Cancelled my Bally subscription just in time.

[EricaLubarsky]

Lol

[Dallas41]

The Dallas Mavericks were 16-point favorites to beat the Charlotte Hornets tonight.

Charlotte wins in the biggest upset of the season 😮

[SMC0007]

First game I decided not to watch. Saw the score on FB and came here go get the scoop. 2-7 still incoming. Without help from other teams we are missing thr POs.

[EricaLubarsky]

Mavs are plummeting and that?s great news

Only hope we have is ending 10th worst or worse and keeping the pick

[JustHeb]

With three minutes left, Harper says, Mavs need a stop right here.

We have Luka, Kyrie, Hardy, Wood, and Bullock on the court. 😂🤣😂 This is comical!!! #FreeJaValeMcGee!!! Why does Kidd think we are going to outscore people?! We have not shown the ability to consistently outscore people!!!

Our non-defensive lineup just lost to the Charlotte Hornets, the worst offense in the NBA, without their three best players on a back-to-back at home!!!

We aren?t out scoring anyone!!! Please play people who play defense at the rim!!!

Kidd+DeShawn (JJ)+Marion+Dirk+Chandler
vs.
Luka+Kyrie+Bullock+Hardy+Wood

🤦*♂️🤦*♂️🤦*♂️🤦*♂️

[Melonhead]

Thank god I didn?t watch this shit.

I saw charlotte was on a b2b, with an extremely small roster and sadly my first thought was Mavs can still lose that game.

I have no interest in finishing the season. If they make a play in I might watch. Much rather lose out if the 10 spot is available.

Fire Kidd.

If this team was worth a shit I think Kyrie would stay. No doubt he?s looking elsewhere.

Luka grow the fuck up, you?re unbearable to watch now. It doesn?t even seem like he likes playing anymore.

Yep that is why I wasn't mad with Frank playing tonight

Having him and Bullock on the floor together tonight actually helped the defense better than other wing tandems they used

Neither guy is a great defender but it was the effort that helped

Kyrie is too little so I can't really blame him especially with him down there trying to fight P.J. Washington in the paint often.

Luka plays defense when he wants which is very seldom. If he played with the same effort half the game that he played with on that block shot he made the team would be much better off but Luka doesn't give a shit about defensive effort 90% of the game.

Powell and kleber is a shit fest inside defensively. You could get better rim protection from two traffic cones.

The last time we saw Mcgee he was battling Sabonis and surprisingly he defended him well and contested everything at the rim.

Dude will pick up fouls often but I can live with that as opposed to seeing the damn shit out of Powell and kleber inside the paint

I really don't understand Kidd's logic

He'll play those two guys together but he won't even try to play McGee and Wood together. At the very least the latter two would at least help your rebounding issues if played together and you'd probably get a few more block shots at rim with them

Hell you could even hide them in zone defense where all they have to do is clog up the middle together

The entire organization is fucked up right now starting with the owner

Completely agree.

IMO, Kidd?s current thought process is, f?it, let?s just try to outscore people with Luka and Kyrie. At this point watching them together, they don?t mesh well. One needs to play uptempo and the other thrives slowing things down. We aren?t out scoring anyone without great defense from the other three players playing with them, IMO.

It?s time to try what things look like with Luka, Kyrie, two great defensive wings (Bullock and Green), and a true rim protector (McGee). This is simply common sense. Why it?s taken Kidd this long is confusing.

[JustHeb]

Kidd+DeShawn/JJ+Marion+Dirk+Chandler
vs.
Luka+Kyrie+Bullock+Hardy+Wood

Beside a championship, what?s the difference? Um, 3.5 killer defensive players hiding the 1.5 great offensive players, but terrible defensive players.

And I?m done with Maxi or Powell as defensive stoppers. Literally, no one in the NBA is scared of them blocking their shot. Please put McGee in who opposing offenses actually feel like could block their shot at the rim.

It was rather sad that fans thought Maxi would save the season.
