get kyrie some help
good fight. i hate that we went back to small. we beat them with Luka, maybe even without him if we’re not on a back to back. onto the next one.
Im really worried for josh. I just zoomed in frame by frame and it looks bad. really bad. You can see his ankle bent way beyond 90°, to the point you can see bottom of his fibula bulging. Your ankle almost never bends like that, without severe damage. I really hope I’m wrong. Prayers out to him for a good recovery
Please never let PJ Washington shoot again
Kidd rolling with an old washed up maxi over gafford who was dominating is very concerning.
Yeah I hope okc gets bounced in the first round
Fuck Shai. Luka will eat him alive.
Kleber assterclass
Jfc PJ what was that
Imagine we had a role player consistently step up holy shit
Lu Dort has made the Mavs shit list.
Good Fight without Luka. But 19 turnovers just killed us.
Pretty good game considering we were expected to lose.
Kyrie Irving you are a baller and a warrior
if i’ve learned anything, it’s that shai being an mvp candidate is fucking laughable
As it turns out, Kidd did not, in fact, learn that we have an advantage in our two centers. He is playing THJ and Maxi and our team out of the playoffs.
I can tell you one thing the suns, lakers, mavs, warriors mouth gotta be watering with this as a potential first round matchup
Jason Midd is a fckn moron
good effort nonetheless
I hope we get them in the playoffs. Shai not gonna do close to this in the playoffs, Williams will be their best player then tbh
The most obvious rigged game I’ve seen. Silver lining is, we could definitely take this OKC team in a playoff series EVEN without Luka.
Where’s that “Maxi is untradable” guy at? Dude is cooked
One of the rare losses this year I’m actually not mad about. Team played hard all night and we covered.
We beat them with luka you can’t convince me otherwise
Maxi needs to be demoted down the rotation. Hardy needs to be above Tim, and PJ needs to be pulled before he builds a house late in the game with all these bricks
Maybe PJ tries shooting closer …. this whole 3 thing isn’t working right now
Should’ve benched PJ. Overall net negative when you can’t make shit
If PJ was slightly below average we win. Oh well
Why is Kidd obsessed with playing Maxi at the 5? Gafford or Lively should be on the court at all times.
Can I file sexual assault allegations against the commentators tonight for the fellatio they were performing on the Thunder tonight? I don’t think they said a single positive thing about the mavs today.
SGA is literally the anti Kyrie. Foul merchant.
Lively only played 14 minutes??
Mind boggling use of Maxi at the 5 down the stretch. Absolute malpractice and indefensible decision. It’s games like these, where players are out, where Kidd’s ineptitude is magnified the most.
The refs were giving them soft calls and we are getting no calls,PJ was literally thj on the 3 in his shooting slump,all things aside we didn’t have luka josh got injured exum and gafford almost got injured but we fought back,just try and beat Denver next game we can win this!
Love the effort and intesity tonight. This new Mavs team is scrappy and I like it.
Disagree with sitting Gaff in the final 4 minutes though.
This game was winnable. Gutted for Josh Green and hope Exum is okay going forward. I hope this bullshit shows everyone how vulnerable OKC is. The way they looked tonight fully healthy I think the only team they can beat in 7 is the Warriors.
Hardy was good. Good defense and did a good job playmaking as well
Hot take: No one is afraid of OKC
It took OKC 48 minutes to beat an 8th seed without their best player.
why close out with kleber and gafford is literally feasting the entirety of the game 🤦🏾♂️
SGA should not be in the mvp conversation. The guy’s a free throw merchant.
I don’t get what people like about his game.
Refs sold, Josh went down, Exum, PJ and Kleber were all terrible, 19 TO’s, and yet they only won by 7.
It’s always HOW you lose. Kidd not resorting to that small ball lineup the last several minutes might could’ve made a different outcome.
– 2nd night of a back to back
– no Luka
– lots of injury scares
Still only a 7 point loss. Give me this team in a 7 game series.
I’m scared Kidd is clueless.
He just adore this small lineup with Kleber and THJ.
They are terrible together, but he thinks that’s the answer.
Again, and again, and again.
Clutch time, Kleber and Hardaway should be on the bench, both of them.
Team played good, except PJ shooting, without Luka this was decent.
Not scared of this OKC team, Shai is good but he’s not nearly good as Luka.
Another tiers.
