2019 - 2020 Dallas Mavericks: Eastern Bloc > Western Conference

[Surly Bevo 24692]

Wonder when somebody Is going to mix in some defense

[Etexhorn13 3032]

I live in Houston now so can’t get away with saying it all the time, but goddamn I can’t think of a duo more loathsome than harden and Westbrook. I fucking hate the Rockets. We need to win this game 

[Zepol87 9163]

That was fucking weak

[Zepol87 9163]

Trey Burke busting. Fuck you Harden 

[LurkingHorn 1044]

Harden gets the most generous of foul calls I think I’ve ever seen. I just don’t get it.  I know I’m captain obvious. 
 

I think we’re just going to have to commit to outscoring them at this point. We have no answers on defense. Best bet is to get another quick foul on harden and get him out of there. 

[Etexhorn13 3032]

85 points in the first half. Is that good? Harden and tucker being in some foul trouble gonna make this an interesting second half. Where tf did this Trey Burke come from? I’m back to full on bonertown for these mavs. They are a fun (but sometimes frustrating) team as any to root for.

Trey Burke having that Austin Croshere wtf type game.

[conVINCEd 21468]

You gotta drive it at Harden to open the 2nd half and try to get him his 5th foul.

[Drew 2331]

All this without Luka going nuts.

[LurkingHorn 1044]

I feel like luka has had a shit game but he’s close to a triple double.

[Zepol87 9163]

God I missed watching Luka play.  He makes it look so easy

[LurkingHorn 1044]

Sign Trey Burke to a long-term extension right now.

It’s an all-star game defensively.  We’re currently up 8.

Shit sounds like us at the rec center. Lets fucking go

[Zepol87 9163]

Jesus christ

[TommyGufano 6021]

4 months later and we still can't close out games for shit. So frustrating

[Bozo_Casanova 26232]

why would you intentionally foul harden

Because that is the smart play

[crum 521]

[Zepol87 9163]

That was fucking retarded. God damnit nothing changes

[Party_Taco 3671]

Infuriating

[Etexhorn13 3032]

God damnit. First to 150 wins?

prevent the 3. In theory he's supposed to hit 2 or you don't fuck up the rebound on a miss.

[Jive Turkey 12562]

Still can’t close out games.

just play defense and make him hit a tough 3. 3/9 on the night and hes 2 steps in front of half court. abandon paint and make them swing for a rushed shot or a tough contested one by Harden

[Drew 2331]

Since game fucking one I’ve been consistent about 2 things.

They Mavs do NOT prevent offensive rebounds for the other team. They have lost 6-7 games solely on the fact that they could NOT box out and prevent the other team from getting offensive rebounds.

And FTs in the clutch. Luka has issues already with FTs. But when Curry can’t hit late FTs were fucked.

The defense doesn’t bother me. This is a young team and Luka isn’t a great defender. That doesn’t kill them.

It’s not being able to secure a rebound late and hit late FTs that really hurt.

[crum 521]

also seth looks like a lost puppy tonight

[immortal13 4059]

Seth should have iced the game by hitting both fucking free throws

[Surly Bevo 24692]

Refs swallowed the whistle there....

[Party_Taco 3671]

Fucking

Bullshit

[Party_Taco 3671]

I cannot believe we’ve lost this god damn game.

RC needs to haze the fuck out of this crew tomorrow.

0 and 1. Fishing fun and games are over. 

[LurkingHorn 1044]

I’m trying to remember that this is the beginning of our next run, but this is so frustrating to see them constantly choke away winnable games. This game should have been over with a couple minutes to go in regulation. This pretty much cements is as the 7th seed. Tough sledding against LAC. 

[dbecks 442]

That fucking sucked. Love Luka, but he’s gotta take it up a notch at the end of the game.

(Yes, the first meaningful game in forever, it’s not a fair assessment, I know.)

Helluva game, unlucky to not win there.

[Vic Mackey 46919]

This still has no fucking idea to close games out and when the game is on the line, they shrivel up like cucks.

Not locked into 7 and LAC aren't locked into 2. Might work out that way, but there's time for a lot of shuffling still

Yep end of game Luka was not great Luka

[bluto 4873]

Why wasn’t boban in for the rebound on the FT tip, ticky tack second guess but it’s the little shit that loses a 7 pt lead in 45 sec

[Loch Ness Monster 3533]

I wanted to break my TV.

it's great to have sports back, isn't it? 

 i guess i miss the hurt and anger when my teams disappoint me.  but the last 4 months weren't that bad, were they?

at least i got to celebrate Liverpool winning the EPL.  now it's back to the Mavs, Rangers, and Stars pissing me off.  maybe we'll get Longhorns and Cowboys football back to twist the knife even deeper.

[Skipper 6088]

Infuriating game, but seriously, it was fun to be pissed off at sports again.  Been a long time.

Mavs = highest offensive efficiency rating in NBA history.

Also Mavs = 2nd worst in nba with 5 mins left in game and score within 5 points.

Probably not a positive data point for playoff basketball.
