Grimes should’ve been in the closing line up.
Somebody in the DLLS stream had a great comment. Imagine if game 7 of the NBA finals was decided like this… What a joke
I wouldn’t say we was screwed out of a win . It’s yet another game where we was in control and let it slip in the clutch . The main reasons are firstly spencer d cannot controll the late game . He tries to hard to be “that guy” he plays free and fresh first 3 quarters , When it come to the late game he keeps trying to hard to drain the clock and ends up chucking a wild 3 when pj I’d say in the corner . Secondly pj needs to step up big time . He comes out the gate hot for the first quarter , very aggressive and opening the mavs up for more options . He then disappears completely for the rest of the game , sat in the corner looking un engaged
I really really hope the 2 min report doesn't mention it, or they just say it was a clean block. They F'd up so bad, they might as well run with it.
Dinwiddie cost us the game, PERIOD.
Mavs shouldn’t have been in a position to have a bad call alter the outcome. They should have blown this team out.
NBA’s Instagram account removed the post about that “game winning block” 😂🤭
Y’all fouled Hawkins and they didn’t call it, oh well 😂😂🤷🏾♂️
Mavs couldn’t challenge anyway, they didn’t have a timeout dummies 😂😂😂
Retribution from being so biased against Gafford. Lively here and there – the future – whatever
I bwing saying it dinwiddie is trash get rid of his ass already smh
I know Nick and Issac mentioned the Max Struss shot, but do you guys remember that time a couple seasons ago where they had to replay the last second of the 2nd quarter vs. the Nuggets after the half. Mavs were winning and had momentum, and then the Nuggets player made the last second heave and then resumed the 3rd quarter immediately after. I felt like the Nuggets used that shot to get momentum, and they came back and won the game by the difference of that heave.
If this somehow does get appealed, then i wouldn't be surprised if Mavs lose in heave again. Then, play the Pelicans again the same day and somehow lose that game due to the scheduling and momentum.
Is he talkng about the referees or his coaching.. 😂😂 that was great
So ya not going talk about how maxi came in and they made the run get that bum of my team
YET THEY GO BACK IN GAMES.. DURING GAMES & CHANGE 3s to 2s
What if something like this happens in the Finals? In a Championship game?
NOBODY GOT ROBBED MAVS ARE JUST ASS NO DEFENCE BROO
we better firey Isaac today 🤬
ITS PART OF THE GAMBLING MAFIA WAKE UP THE SPREAD IS SO CLOSE THE HOME TEAM MUST WIN ON MONEYLINE AND THE REF IS BIG PART OF IT…HIGH ROLLER BETTORS VS THE ADELSON YIKES CLEARLY RIGGED
The Mavs should have won easily vs the last team in the west, so they wouldn't have to be screwed on the last action, simple as that.
(p.s. : Kidd out next summer please ??)
That was disgusting. I feel like quitting watching NBA, officiating is always a thing. No wonder why ratings are down
I blame the morose tony brothers for poisoning the refs well like he's a grade school kid after the 2022 incident with Spence. While he took one or two shots he should've passed on, otherwise, Dinwiddie played a very solid game. He was driving, hitting the paint and dishing to open players. PJ had an open elbow 3 with plenty left on the clock. Spence took care of the ball and hit all of his free throws. His efficiency on 2 point attempts should improve. But as far as "pounding the ball" he is reading the defense as point man, trying to get the right play to execute instead of passing for the sake of passing and a teammate potentially not knowing what JKidd wants to run. And the refs "scared to death to do anything so they did nothing" heard it last night and JKidd was totally spot on. Yet, refs change 3s to 2s later in a game without a stoppage nor challenge. Dumb bronze age olden rules.
Dinwiddie made mistakes in terms of missing a few shots, but let's appreciate how his team high three steals each time playing the passing lane led to 6 Mavs points. I agree he should move the ball/act faster particularly in the 4th, but let's not neglect the majority of good he is contributing. Spencer is busting his tail on both ends of the court. It's every MFFL's interest to root for his success like any other Mav.
can we talk about our Offensive Playset. we can't just dribble dribble then take a shot on the final minutes. It's not like LUKA or KYRIE is holding the ball. If the player (Spencer) is handling the ball and can't demand a double team. then get a pick and roll and not dribble dribble for a three point shot
The goal tend occurred with about 4.3 seconds.
NBA Refs are 🗑️ & nothing surprises.
@nba could detect backboard double taps and trigger automatic goaltend/review
Ohhhhh Isaac with the Kidd BURN!!! "Doung nothing" just watching like me
In the final 2 minutes you should be able to have an extra challenge whether you used it or not during the game. If you use it in the final two minutes and you’re wrong it’s like a technical foul (1FT and the ball for the other team) and missed calls should be able to be challenged in those last two minutes.
The NBA's ratings problem isn't the 3 ball or anything else. It's a ref issue!!! People don't want to watch a game with 30 free throws in a half. And they CERTAINLY don't want to see horribly blown calls at the end of the games. Like, what's the point of having a game if the end is gonna be screwed up and the wrong team gets the Ws? You might as well just turn the NBA into the WWE at that point!!!
🦝🦝
This should improve Luka’s MVP standing
I'm a Pelicans fan. You guys were robbed!
Every time someone would get hot it felt like Spencer would get jealous and try to pound the air out of the ball to make it about him.
Missi is 6’11”….he’s taller then Gaff
The Mavs players can get slap in the face and not get a foul call for them
Watching Klay lose that ball at the end really reminds you how little his skill set is.
Adam Silver wondering why ratings are so low…
Hall of fame point guard coach draws up a klay ISO in crunch time and allows vet min guard to dribble the air out the ball multiple times. COY worthy.
Slightly was so pissed he couldn’t do Locked On…
Now this is the kinda game you formerly protest Mark Cuban…
I don’t know who told J. Hardy that he can dribble. HE CANNOT!! He loses the ball so many times thinking he’s Kyrie. Stop him from dribbling & make him a slash to the rim guy. He causes way too many turnovers.
Replay showed referee Jeremiah's triquinness was baseline, 4 ft away steering straight at the play. And yes, he looked scared, to Jason Kidd's point
Why was grimes bechned in the closing minutes, and give Omax more minutes, let him him take Maxis minutes, he got the athletic defence we need
“This play is non-challengable.” Why though? This is a problem I have with all sports that have a replay system. You already limit the amount of challenges a team can have, therefore, every play should be reviewable.
