For those wanting playing time, now is the time to shine. Mavs need a spark. I wish KP would show more emotion.

Surrendering a 40 point quarter to the Bulls? Ouch.

And their starting guards have yet to hit a fg.

Luka with 52 draftkings points at the half. I can only remember Harden and AD going over 100 in a game once each.

No. Not in the flow at all. Hes trying to launch himself back into form but it's just bad.

Pretty much any coach is going to pull someone for that.

I mean he is playing bad but did we just forget he's had no pre-season like everyone else and he might not be 100% mentally ready with the knee?
He had surgery in Oct this is just January I'd like to think he just needs more than 3 games to get back ready
His shot selection could be better no doubt

I just hope they keep it close enough for Luka to not get benched.

I no longer want to hear that the spacing between WCs and KP on offense can't work
They look just fine to me when the Mavs run plays for KP inside

His shot selection doesn't have a lot to do with no preseason and being out. That's the major issue with him. He had this problem too last season. There is no excuse for Settling for super long 3s like he has.
His positioning on defense has been bad too. Tons of bad position fouls. But that I think relates to his lack of in game reps

Another one of those games where it's right there and the little things keep us from getting over the hump.

Ouch
Down 6 players who represent 60.3 ppg.
Why does the NBA think this is a good product?

I think the Mavs play back to back and I doubt KP plays so another loss is possible tomorrow

Our Pick n roll defense is the worst thing I've ever seen.

This is the main difference between a good and a bad team...
Beside Luka, there is no bright spot today.. But yeah.. Another triple double goes to waste..
Too bad for mavs..

If these clown teammates don't carry Luka off the court it's a shame.

Terry is like 0-5 on 3s so far. I thought he could shoot the piss out of the ball? He didn't have a bad game but 0% on 3s probably isn't very good.

yeah what a difference DFS, Kleber and Richardson makes.
They understand defensive rotations better.

Because of the COVID-19 situation, are the rookies not able to practice? They certainly need as much practice as they can get. Right now they just don't look ready. As already pointed out they didn't get the Summer League to help with their development. None of them look NBA ready to me, and before long it's possible we add even more players who are not NBA caliber players. Maybe we luck out and get Barea back though.

He needs a complete year in the weight room.
Dude looks like someone you would see in High school playing ball.
Defensively, I'm not sure if he'll be strong enough to defend good

@Dallas41 How about THJ? We're missing him too. Also Brunson and a healthy Powell are solid players as well. Eventually I think Powell will look more like his former self.

Lavine 1-8, White 1-5. Markkanen, Young, Porter, and Temple did all the damage.

Yes, and you have to be able to anticipate what the offense is going to do, and take some chances for stealing and/or deflecting passes. Richardson, in particular, seems to be good at that. Some players can anticipate the opposing offense, and some can't.

Markkanen looked really good today.
I remember wanting the Mavs to draft him a few years ago but he was off the boards by the time they picked

Mavs had 18 assists. Luka had 15. Short handed or not, that is insane.
