This is it. This is the game where Hardy starts next to Luka with Spence being out due to injury. He takes that flamethrower shot from the G league to score 30 and win the game by 20.
But in reality, we play Facu and Frank 15 minutes a piece only to lose badly.

Ha!
Celtics favored by 4.5 points
Chuck Cooperstein@coopmavs
Both teams take a bunch of 3ptrs.
BOS takes 2nd most (41.9). Make the most (16.4) 3rd in Pct (39).
Mavs take 4th most (39.5), but shoot just 34.3%.
Problem for both is that neither team allows opp to shoot 3s.
Mavs allow fewest att (28.3) BOS 6th (36.1).

Spence is playing tonight, so at least we don't have to worry about our faces melting off.

Lol Kidd so out of his depth.
Offense is not gelling at all. You go I go you go I go
Defense getting cooked, no inside presence.

The problem with this team isn't Wood not playing major minutes
It's not Bullock and DFS not making 3's
All those things can be good but guess what this team defensively stinks and I don't care how many shots those guys mentioned make if they can't stop anyone from scoring especially in the paint what difference does it make which lineup Kidd plays.
Powell is a terrible rim protector and teams know that Dallas is weak inside so they repeatedly attack the paint against Powell, Wood and McGee.
Not much Kidd can do when your big's are all defensive liabilities
I'm not even sure if any defensive big is on the market unless Indiana stupidly make Turner available or the Kings just want to dumb Holmes.

Hopefully being on national tv forces Kidd go play Wood more, regardless of the result

A banged up Tatum is having his way tonight. Isnt the whole point of having Dodo and Bullock in the game to slow him down?

Kidd is too preoccupied with this offense vs defense stuff that he has just simply lost sight of playing your best players. I mean, three of our five starters can't score a basket.
Doesn't matter how bad the defense is right now. No defense can make up for that.

And like I feared, Josh Green is back to what he is. A nice little energy guy you can't rely on for anything other than that.

Sick to think Luka Jalen could?ve been a duo similar to what we?re seeing.

I am so sick of this shit... I've bit my tongue long enough. This coaching is absolutely piss poor. My simple fixes to get back into the game:
1) Starting line up should be Spencer/Luka/Dodo/Wood/Mcgee (clearly our best players with minutes).
2) Run a effing zone defense. Luka isn't getting back on D, we are getting beat man to man, let them keep shooting threes and hope they start to get cold. With our premier defenders, we are letting them get lay up after lay up.
3) Get the damn ball down low. None of our "SHOOTERS" are hitting a damn thing. Live by the three, die by the three. It makes absolutely no sense to keep spacing it out to take a long shot to not have a rebounder for 2nd chance opportunities. Wood and Mcgee give us a chance at a rebound.
4) Dorsey seems like he would be a good 2nd string PG at the NBA level. Give him some run.
... I am literally upset. Down 20? Luka has like half our damn points.... Rebound, clog the damn paint and play Wood and McGee. Get Dwight off the fucking floor. I love his energy and effort, I truly do. 1 great game doesn't = 7 trash games. Use him as a spark plug and only that.
Bench should be Dorsey/THJ/Josh Green/Bertans/Kleber with Bullock getting spot minutes until he finds his touch from deep.
Even a blind man can see this at this point....
If THJ can't find his stroke, we need to trade him. Waste of a roster spot. Josh Green is out performing his ass...

I'd call up all of Hardy, Wright, and Dorsey to send a clear cut message to these overpaid bums. Show up or sit down.

The Celtics roster is just so superior to ours. Guys like DFS, Kleber, Green and Bullock who are counted on to be main contributors for the Mavs would either not make the team, be on their g league affiliate or be end of bench guys.
This score matches up with how far apart these two teams are talent wise.
Mavs are mediocre. If we didn?t have Luka we?d be a bottom 5 team.

What's funny is we beat this team had we made it to the finals last year.

Mavs look tired. If DFS and Bullock are not hitting shots. They aren?t too helpful.

My starting lineup going forward. Luka/Hardy/Spence/DFS/Wood. Because those are your best five players on the team. Yep, they'll give up a ton of points, but this grey area of offense vs defense is bombing hard. Just play your best players and roll with it. If it fails, then at least you tried. Make a trade or punt the season.
