2023 - 2024 Dallas Mavericks Season Thread - I'm watching, just like you guys

Lively is gonna come back

[Vic Mackey 47006]

About as low IQ as a foul as you can have in that situation. And we are getting crushed on the boards now

[RexWilson 1346]

I’m at the game. Has there been an update on Lively?

On replay it looked like a concussion. Took a knee to the back of the head and looked extremely woozy when he got up.

Nope, but I’d be shocked if he’s not concussed. That was ugly (knee to back of head)

The refs have been letting Gobert and KAT get away with murder 

[cafe society 2860]

I'd be surprised if he's back for even the finals.  Would love to be wrong.

I wanted to blame KAT for that play but it was inadvertent. He was jumping for a rebound and Lively happened to be down on the ground.

Those were meant to be separate posts. That was an unlucky play and the refs have let them get away with murder.

Neck sprain and questionable to return

[LurkingHorn 1066]

This game has an opposite feel to the first 2. We’re up but they just keep hanging around. I’m very concerned about holding this lead with Lively out and now DJJ heading to the locker room. 

[gsoda3 3245]

I hope he returns because Dwight Powell is unplayable on both sides of the floor. Also hope DJ is alright, he got hit in the same part of the lower back from last game. We can't have josh green guarding for long periods of time.

[ITHorn 800]

What is the point of getting in the bonus if the refs swallow whistles like a Kardashian tape? Still, you can’t let Edwards getting hot take you out of what is working.

Ill wind blowing.  

[Ghost of Shag 2608]

Mavs gone cold. Lively out. Edwards on fire.

Not great, Bob.

[gsoda3 3245]

No lively = no defense. This is exactly why lively is more important than gafford.

[JohnnyRage 1617]

With McDaniels and Gobert on the bench let's get Kyrie back in there?

Fuck him. Kidd should put tell Markeith to put an elbow up his nose.

[LurkingHorn 1066]

This is going to have to be the Luka-Kyrie show. All of a sudden, this game feels extremely important to the outcome of the series. Somehow sneak out a win, I think you can find 1 more without Lively. Lose this, I do not feel great about the rest of the series if we don’t have Lively back. 

[Vic Mackey 47006]

Fuck him. Kidd should put tell Markeith to put an elbow up his nose.

KAT knew exactly what he was doing. Fuck him.

It was completely accidental. Lively was falling out of control, no way to predict and execute.

It was at least reckless, and the knee in the balls was intentional.  I’ve been watching this game for a long time and I’m 100% sure that if Dick Motta, Jerry Sloan, Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, Red Auerbach, Bill Russell, Chuck Daly, Doug Moe, George Karl, Lenny Wilkins or any other old school NBA coach was on the Mavs sideline up 2-0 they would put a body on KAT.

Travel huh??

[Bozo_Casanova 26434]

Tony+Brothers=🤡

[dcar00 14151]

this is bullshit.  they are fouling the shit out of on ever y rebound and Luka is getting fouled.  that travel call was bullshit considering the way they allow travelling.

[LurkingHorn 1066]

What a shot by Ky

[dcar00 14151]

the refs have lost control of this game because they won't call fouls on Minn.

[Surly Bevo 24908]

Night night

[Vic Mackey 47006]

And 1!!!

[ITHorn 800]

Holy shit Gafford just killed Gobert. 

[JohnnyRage 1617]

Pj Washiington's schtick of not letting offensive players get a practice shot on dead ball's is kind of fucking hilarious and effective.

[LurkingHorn 1066]

What a series of clutch minutes. What a team. 

[gsoda3 3245]

Should've been a flagrant on rudy, he didn't play the ball at all and just two arm shoved gafford who was already in the air.

[Horn80 6114]

Mavs want it so much more.

[Ghost of Shag 2608]

Damn this is impressive. No Lively and still getting it done.

I love it. PJ coulda made it in the 80s

[BigDHornfan 6545]

The fuck is Regina wearing?

[Vic Mackey 47006]

This is such a grown man win. And the entire last half of this quarter. Mavs just flexed their muscle and ran Minnesota off the court when it mattered.

[Bozo_Casanova 26434]

Goddamn I love this team

Yup. Didn’t get a second look or a mention though. That’s an 80s playoff foul that they aren’t supposed to allow anymore. 

[Vic Mackey 47006]

I thought Ant was that guy a young Kobe. Nah. He shrivels up when it matters most this entire series.

Ehhh I am not here to kill Ant because I am old enough to remember Kobe and MJ coming up small early in their careers.

KAT is the guy who should getting roasted. He brings nothing to the table when it matters.

[ThatsGold 2]

[Zeus 6012]

Damn I didn’t grab the Mavs for this game cuz Tony Brothers

aint no saving Minnesota now lol

Mavs are so lucky to dodge the Nuggets fucking sweet

fuck Bawstin

[Henry Hill 3156]

We outplayed them tonight and won. Should I duck?

Bingo 

Towns and Goober were supposed to carry them

they got washed up Conley out there doing everything 

[CBT 1282]

The mother fucking truth

[Vic Mackey 47006]

So when should we hear something on Lively?

Ant led that 15-3 run to take the lead. His team didn’t help him tonight. 

[Dbeasy 15041]

Man these games are entertaining as hell.
