This is why we can’t have nice things
Marcel we need an entire crashout stream 😭
Funny seeing the official NBA twitter page and other official pages reposting calling it a game-saving block😭😭
that hurt to watch
All you positive police sound like this 😂: https://youtu.be/sKGdA2uBgCA?si=Th2_jFsmXv4mD8BM
I was there. Sick of losing games man. Ky and Luka better get better soon
If we trade Hardy and Kleber for Isaiah Stewart to increase our defense and rebounding can that save us? Those final seconds were complete bs and NBA needs to do something and overturn the score NOLA shouldn’t have won. We need more shooting and defense and Hardy can’t bring all those things and also low IQ and bad handles from him at times. Who should replace him if we also get Beef Stew we need an upgrade fast
5:55 only players on this team that should ISO are Luka, Kyrie, and sometimes Pj, grimes. They all have deep enough bags in my opinion if you really pay attention to their games (pj and grimes) Spencer shouldn’t ISO tho he needs to create for others and be a true PG. Spencer is better off as a PG but is played like a SG and Hardy is a true SG who has to play the 1 for some reason. Figure it out kidd
I blame Kidd man. The fact that Spencer was allowed to dribble dribble dribble and Chuck threes speaks volumes for his inept coaching skills . I don’t see any creativity to help our team. I understand we don’t have Lukai but that’s when the coach can help the team by drawing some easy baskets . Fuck egg man
The box score says it all. Grimes and Hardy over 50% FG (and Hardy 67% from 3), 18 and 25 minutes respectively. Dinwiddie 33% FG, 38 minutes. Kidd needs to be fired. He ran them out of timeouts which is why they couldn't challenge the blown goaltending call. Wouldn't have guaranteed a win because the Pelicans would still have had time to get a final shot, but it certainly guaranteed a loss. Klay still not getting the ball passed to him in a position to score and PJ is handling the ball WAY too much (and another 4TO game). Time to stop letting big men handle the ball because they can dribble without falling down. We have MULTIPLE guards who can handle. Klay and PJ need to play off ball all the time and leave the dribbling and penetrating to the more qualified players. Until Luka and Kyrie are back, it's Spencer, Grimes, Naji, and Hardy. Plenty of ball handling there. Don't need a 6'8 guy who can catch & shoot 3s to be doing his Magic Johnson (drunk) impression.
It's a literal robbery of the outcome man! I don't care what happened on the first 47 minutes of the game if the game comes to a winning deciding shot or block it should be officiated perfectly. We always say we got "robbed" and shit but this time it's an actual robbery felony of a win. It's crazy man.
we need exum =)
Adam Silver has to address this. Theres no way this can be allowed to slide
Cómo es posible que no revisen jugadas dudosas sin que haya un Challenge de por medio? Deben mejorar esas reglas
The good thing about the nba season is that it’s a long season and as Mavs fans, I’m pretty sure this happens every year, including last. I’m trying not to lose my mind
If only kidd can make a good ATO not just dinwiddie dribble dribble step back 3 BUT oh well Kidd is always getting bailed out by Luka and Kyrie and hides is terrible coaching. Next Maxi kleber needs to get traded too, what the F does he even do? He doesnt want to shoot, doesnt have an offensive bag. Too small for centers/forwards, too slow for guards.
it was not last seconds … it was last 5 minutes … spencer throw a game away … nobody can run the ball …
You coach then 😂😂 always big deal of kidds reaction my goodness are you a kid???? 😂😂😂😂
No luck involved. Without Luka they don't have the talent to win
It's official. This season is cursed. (Also what a way to end Gafford's career high night lol)
Kid is an idiot. Dieing seconds of the game and you've got Klay (a spot up shooter) dribbling around trying to find a shot with out a screen. WAKE UP KID!!!!
Honestly I hate to say this, only OMax cares about the team win-loss, the rest just care about themselves. When Kai and Luka not there, everyone wants to prove something. No defense, no ball movement, just street ball 1v1. Yeah, there are some good attacks, and some good 3s. But I didn't see TEAM for a very long time. Spencer, you are not a super star, remember that on 4th. And who can tell me what Jason Kidd is high on? At least Jason Kidd was a decent coach last season. But this season he's horrible. This team has no energy, no spirit this season.
Next is thunder, and we go play in. Letss go..
Wasn't a win cuz Pels would have scored to win !!
another kidd loss…. hardy was red hot.. why not let him end.. ffs im so tired of these rotations.. every game kidd fucks it up
Hi, MAVS fans from Taiwan, it is worst performance of this season, and I think there has no excuse for coaching team because it seems like didn’t have any adjustments after losing the Nuggets. Here is my opinion to share:
🏀Defense
1. Improved Communication:
Enhance the on-court communication to avoid mismatches. Players need to call out screens and switches more effectively to ensure everyone is on the same page.
2. Enhanced Zone Defense
Implement a more dynamic zone defense where CENTER stays rooted in the paint, but other players rotate more fluidly to cover any switches, even do the quick double team to recovery. This will help maintain rim protection while adapting to offensive movements.
3. Switch Strategy
Minimize switches that pull the CENTER out of paint. Instead use a hedge and recovery strategy to keep CENTER near the rim and reduce easy paint points and offensive rebounds for the Pelicans .
4. Rebounding Focus
Emphasize Boxing out and team rebounding. Assign specific players to crash the boards aggressively, especially against strong rebounders.
5. Quick Recovery
After double-teaming, ensure quicker rotations back to the perimeter to contest three-points shots. This requires better anticipation and faster defensive shifts.
🏀Offense
1. Diversified Playmaking
Introduce more off-ball movement and cutting to create open opportunities. Reducing reliance on SIMPLE PICK-AND-ROLLS and encouraging players to be more proactive in finding space.
2. Adaptive Offense
Adjust the offensive system to be less dependent on ball handlers like Kyrie and Luka. Incorporate more ball movement and player motion to create scoring chances without overburdening key players. And it could also decrease the turnovers especially Hardy as ball handler, actually he is more like pure shooting guard. And last chance for Klay, he is also the catch-and-shoot shooter, why he needs dribbling to create space alone instead of other people go and help him to create space for making a open shot?
3. Complex screens
Implement more complex screening actions to confuse defenders and create better looks. For examples, use players like Klay to set off ball screens and run plays that pull the the defender out of position, even one more player join in to do the off-ball screen opening up for Klay or other shooters.
4. Dynamic Cutting
Encourage Kyrie and Luka cut to the basket more frequently to draw the double teams and create open shots for teammates. Even this match only has Kyrie, but PJ, Naji, Grimes and Klay also can do the off-ball cutting to pull the defenders out of their positions, even creating more cutting lanes or open shots opportunities.
🏀The match contents shows not only old system is no longer effective, but also coaching team is out of function for making correct tactics both on offense and defense, even cannot using players in properly. This match highlighted the inefficiencies to the old system. It’s clear that changes are necessary for better performance.Let’s go MAVS🙏🙏💪💪
I guess Kidd doesn't understand the concept of feeding the hot hand 🤦
Kyrie should've rested against the Nuggets and played this game so we could've had a better chance at winning
And I understand that no DLive meant Maxi had to play but in 14 minutes he gave you almost nothing
They need to do something with dwinddie, hes just not clutch.
Yep we got robbed. But Mavs also dugged their own grave here, refs just added the flowers on top of the soil. When you have two of your quote on quote worst defenders (Luka and Kyrie) out of the game, you should probably excel on defense right? And yet they let the pelicans score 119 points on them without Zion and BI
I fcking knew it. JKidd won't do shit about it even though refs are fcking us in front of him. JKidd only shows that he won't fight for this team. Like he doesn't care. Other HCs will be livid with that shitshow from the refs.
Why Kyrie Irving from Scotland didnt wanna play? He play terrible last 2 games but still he better Pg than Didlido Spencer in my opinion.
Don't blame Spencer for the iso over and over. Blame J kidd for letting it happen
If you need refs to beat worst team in the West you are cooked anyway. 2 loses away from 11th seed. Its over just accept it and you gonna feel better.
Yo you be crashing out… I don’t know what you was watching but Kidd went at the Refs in 2separate occasions on that missed call‼️ you need to get your eyes checked because at this point “it sound like hate” you gonna missing some of your likes bro
This guy is a joke..: I was on playback with We talk Mavz and we all saw Jason Kidd react
THEY WERE NOT ROBBED THE MAVS ARE JUST ASSS NO DEFENCE BRO
This game was a epitome of my crashout and I ain’t even have midterms yet. Matter of fact ima change my major to “how to ref the NBA games properly so you don’t look like a complete twat”
