Kings are so fucking lucky.
They get the 76ers tomorrow who just finished beating the clippers and Maxey played 44 minutes.
Mavs have to beat the kings both times.

Back to PJ...re-watching game highlights, it's not like he is forcing shots or really taking bad ones. His shooting form looks fine as well.
You can tell when a player doesn't "fit" by the eye test or if they are trying too hard. Not seeing that.
THJ is the perfect example of taking bad shots and forcing things especially when things aren't going his way.

We need some OMax if Kleber is out.
He is shooting 42% from three in the G league and 47% his last two games.
He really is starting to look like a Pascal starter kit too.

I don't think Sacramento is that good tbh
Defensively they are a mess and it wouldn't surprise me if the mavs sweep them

I would like to see him too. However, these players that flip the switch in G league rarely come back into our system in very limited minutes in a system that doesn't provide lots of touches for others.
If he can just play solid defense, grab boards and hustle, I would call it successful.

Last 5 games Mavs have allowed
97 vs UTA
107 @ SAS
105 vs DEN
126 @ OKC
99 vs GSW
That is an average of 106.8. Must go down as defensive improvement.

But essential that PJ and DJJ regularly get on scoring sheets.

PJ offensively uninvolved so far that I've seen seen. No offensive touches even.

For him it means to just run to the corner and then run back on defense, run to the corner and then run back to the defense. That's how he gets in a funk.

And he is not a natural shooter. So he lacks confidence waiting in that corner.

Natural shooters have great confidence doing that. Just waiting in the corner is good for them. PJ is naturally oriented towards an inside game.

Mavs looks like they want to get straight to the Kings game but have to beat these idjits first

8-2 FTs shows it all
Refs are soft but it?s more effort. They?re passing and driving. We?re jacking shots

Great improvisation play by Kyrie. That's Kyrie 101. Very MJ-like.

We allowed 41 in the first quarter so there?s your effort level

Looks they are content with just trying to out gun Utah
Off for like 3 days and you show up with 0 defensive intensity

This is one of those games where the mavs are going to try and wait to the 4th qtr to play some defense
They are on cruise control defensively until then

Luka with the 22/0/75 shooting split
Thought the Spurs game was a one a season fluke but he?s putting up a lot of stinkers lately

Yes, but he is on 8 assists. Which is what he should focus on. He's been forcing his shot at the outset.

Luka is not looking good. Short on everything. Saw some grimacing too.
Team is looking ahead to the kings tomorrow

I would like to see PJ for just one game pass up the 3 and just drive it relentlessly.
At this point every 3 that he takes seems like a waisted possession for the last month now

Except that nobody else is minus THJ hitting 3s!! Your agenda against Pj is old hat at this point.
My god, he is 0-2. Luka and Kyrie are 0-8.

As much as a Luka homer you are, you should see that he can't shoot under 30% from the field and 20% from three every game and you know that.

Lol
Your tracking just the 0-2 for tonight
Dude is like 5/30 in the much larger sample size lately
If that was DFS or Bullock I'm sure they wouldn't be getting so much free rope from you
The bottom line is dude has been God awful and it wouldn't hurt to attack the rim more if your not making 3's
So we can agree to disagree on his shot selection and shooting

Refs helping the Mavs
Would be nice if we had a 3 point shooter. Anyone. Hardy?
