GAME 7 THREAD - DAL @ LAC - 2:30 CT (ABC)

[Dallas41]

MF Richardson is terrible

I've seen enough of his shit

[JTmoney2424]

Richardson is worthless unless you put him in at the end of the game for free throws

[tap2390]

We wasted a whole fucking season of developing Josh Green to play Richardson’s garbage self.

[Jayinem]

Boban stay in front of your man you're a great defender don't reach.

[MFFL]

Another TO trying to get it to Boban

[Dallas41]

Can't trust either Brunson or Richardson

[BPo001]

Boban needs to pin these defenders when he gets position down low

[tap2390]

Lol neither of our 7’3” guys can post up Nic Batum. Batum would arguably be the second best player on the Mavs.

[Jayinem]

Luka is putting on a clinic, and we're losing. Says all you need to know about the roster.

[turin]

.

[Stylistic]

How many and ones have they ruled out for us? Three?

[BPo001]

Not sure about the pull-up 3 on a fast break

[JTmoney2424]

Another shit game from THJ so far as well. Going to need him to heat up to have a chance

[turin]

Mavs have a window here to take the lead now that the Clippers are not hitting everything they throw up.

[Dallas41]

Boban has to still play heavy minutes this game because Kleber and Powell don't bring much to table either so I'd rather have his offense as opposed to either one of them

We used our MLE to sign Burke and WCS instead of one player

For as much as Burke has played we could have signed him for the minimum

what MLE player was better?

Looking at the MLE guys, every one has been disappointing

Well, we've got who we've got. I think he's worth a run or two instead of Brunson if just to avoid Brunson's turnovers.

[turin]

This is interesting. The Mavs are getting a whole lot more calls than I would expect normally.

[EricaLubarsky]

Morris needs to be punched in the chops

He's been meh on offense today too which admittedly is unusual for him.

[JTmoney2424]

Quit trying to lob to Boban

[EricaLubarsky]

Mavs have two types of games

1) Games where we shoot well
2) Games where we shoot under 30%

This is the latter, which doesn't look good

[MFFL]

Another TO trying to feed Boban in the post. That’s 3

[turin]

Doncic is not putting those passes to Boban up high enough. WTH. He's 7'3", put some air under those passes.

[Jayinem]

Luka might drop a 50 piece and we still lose.

[EricaLubarsky]

Boban on pace to foul out in 23 min

[turin]

Despite the turnovers and the mistakes, I'm liking the motion and activity on the Mavs offense.

[JTmoney2424]

Boban almost got posterized there. 0 excuse for that guy not trying to contest and attempt to block that shot.

[MFFL]

Boban is too slow to stop Leonard from getting around him and getting a steal

[Fuzz]

Carlisle needs to throws everything out there. There is nothing to save. Richardson isn't working. They're still eating us up defensively. Throws Green out there and let him attack the basket. We don't have drivers that like to push the issue. THJ, DFS drive but hardly got for the finish.

[Dallas41]

Man I hope Powell doesn't come into this game and become a traffic cone on defense

Agreed. Just for 3-4 minutes to give a different look

[EricaLubarsky]

Allowing 64% and 60%

Not the game you want to see

People laud Boban, but that's the defense you see from him. He's too slow to get out on shooters and players go around him like a layup drill

[mac222b]

If like to see Burke as a secondary ball handler. Out on Brunson.

[FollowedKPtodallas]

90% of the calls going against.

I agree with you an trying Green. The Clippers are shooting pretty hot, so give Green some burn in place of Richardson at least.

Outscored by 11 in the second
