GDT (game 31): Mavs at Timberwolves

[saclare]

KAT, Gobert, and Prince out.

THJ, Green, and Maxi out. Powell GTD.

Look for Edwards to put up 20+ shots and slowing him down as the key to winning this one.

GO MAVS

[DevinHarriswillstart]

Wood should feast. Wonder what goes on with Kemba with both Luka and Spence playing.

[DevinHarriswillstart]

Luka/Spence/Reggie/DFS/Wood.

That should have good balance.

[DevinHarriswillstart]

Wood and 1 from Luka already. Whoulda thunk?

[saclare]

Absolute shit house effort so far from Luka on the defensive end. Non boxout on a rebound led to a put back and lazy close out on the shooter there for three. I dunno if the ?quad strain? is bothering him but he needs to be better there and lead by example.

[Melonhead]

How has Wood looked starting with Luka? Can?t watch at the moment

[saclare]

He?s looked good. Jumped out to a nice lead. It?s against a depleted team, especially in the front court, but solid 1st quarter if only for a little bit more effort.

Kemba looks good so far, too.

[DevinHarriswillstart]

We finally look like an NBA team. It's not cringe like it was.

[EricaLubarsky]

30 point 1st
On pace for 12 in the second

[EricaLubarsky]

Our total inability to score is an issue

[EricaLubarsky]

This team sucks

[EricaLubarsky]

Fire Kidd

A team with Luka should not struggle to score 10 in a quarter

[EricaLubarsky]

+10 to -10

The wheels are fully off

[EricaLubarsky]

30-11 quarter

[EricaLubarsky]

Other than the jacked Luka 3, we?d have a 11-36 quarter

Thank god for Luka so we were outscored by 22 instead of 25

[EricaLubarsky]

Second quarter of it was whole game

Mavs 56
Wolves 144

[Melonhead]

Just tuned in at halftime, what an embarrassment of a score

[EricaLubarsky]

Mavs without Mavs stars - loss
Mavs without opposing starts - loss
Mavs and opposing team at full health - 50/50

[EricaLubarsky]

What happened to MVP Luka

[saclare]

Welp, had to put the kiddo down for bed and then came back to watch 2nd. Yuck. Caught up now and need to get a good 3Q in.

Dinwiddie has been shooting well, but the guy can?t create and dish for shit lately. Gotta wonder why he isn?t slashing and driving as much?

[EricaLubarsky]

This team loses games before they even step on the court

Pathetic

[EricaLubarsky]

Luka jacking and not even trying

[EricaLubarsky]

Why would i watch this shit? Players don?t give a shit

[Melonhead]

This team suuuucks

[BPo001]

This team is so bad. How are we losing to this shit Minn team? I sure hope Nico and Cuban are on the phones trying to find ways to improve this roster.

[BPo001]

Why did the ref in the sideline call that foul and not the one on the baseline with a clear view?

[EricaLubarsky]

Cuban should apologize ? la the Suns ownership after game 7

I don?t give a shit if the team is scrappy and doesn?t win a lot

What we?re watching is just a festering cesspit of mediocrity. The guys hate each other and don?t want to play with each other. Fans shouldn?t have to watch a roster full of guys who don?t give a shit and it shows.

[EricaLubarsky]

Luka 31% shooting and 4 TOs

[BPo001]

Fucking pathetic defense and boxing out

[EricaLubarsky]

Luka 29%

[EricaLubarsky]

Outscored by 26 since the first

[EricaLubarsky]

Luka is done

[BPo001]

Boy, Luka must have used the magic word to get tossed that quick

[EricaLubarsky]

This could be our last game with Luka and Kidd

Who am I kidding, Cuban will never fire Kidd

[EricaLubarsky]

Mavs -30 since the first

Wolves without 2 of the top 3 players

[BPo001]

Too bad Hardy isn?t here to play the rest of the game.

[JustJay]

So we're going to be 3-11 on the road, terrible.

[saclare]

Refs are so fucking soft this season. You fucked up by not making the call and then get your feelings hurt by some words. ?Aw hell no? according to the ref, what a fucking joke.

[EricaLubarsky]

It?s clear Luka doesn?t want to play here

[FreshJive]

Edwards has been crying all game, and they only gave him the single tech.
