2018 - 2019 Dallas Mavericks: Throw Some D's

[Vic Mackey 47189]

"Letting" lol

He's a fucking moron as usual. He was the one telling us that Melo was going to work out.

[pacman 7379]

Damn Luka. Amazing.

Kid is pretty good.  Bad game (he’s a rookie, it happens) and he makes up for it with a 2 minute flurry of ridiculousness to beat those cocksuckers.  He seems to have IT in spades.  Fun times.

Loved it. Dude didn’t look good at all. Then turned it on late. Dude is clutch as hell.

 

Oh and this happened.

 

 

Cubes must be in his ear. Only 19 years old and already owning a team.

I don't know how real clutch stats are, but part of the reason I wanted Luka this time a year ago was that it seemed like every week he had a new highlight where he made a ridiculous crunch time play for Real Madrid.  And he looked like he expected to make every shot.

The fact that he's already getting those results against better competition... it's pretty shocking even for a Luka homer.

Just listening to LockedonMavs and I think* they said Luka is leading the NBA in clutch time 3pt shooting.  63%

 

 

*Dealing with kids may be a little off.

Jalen Brunson has been awesome. Lots of true from Rick to put him right into the starting lineup.

JKidd sitting next to Cuban.

[conVINCEd 21474]

Up 20 and not really playing well.  That hasn’t happened in a while.

[threesheets 1677]

Luka with dime after dime in the 3rd. 

[Vic Mackey 47189]

These are the games that really define a team. Most teams will get up for and play well against the marquee teams. But how does your team fare against teams they are supposed to beat. Not looking that great but still dominating. Great sign from a young team.

[immortal13 4059]

The presence of Jordan down low and the addition of Doncic have completely changed the identity of this team. I'm sticking with my prediction they make the playoffs 

[Kevin O’Shea 279]

So hot right now 

[CBT 1287]

Why didn’t Mo play?

Never heard them mention his name. Sucks ...I was hoping to get to see him play.

This run is amazing

Mo Bamba broke a rule? Surprising 

[conVINCEd 21474]

I’m gonna be a little critical here, but Luka and DJ need to spend some time in practice and figure out when Luka should throw the lob pass and when he shouldn’t throw it.  I would bet that those two have the lowest rate of alley oop conversions in the league this year.  I don’t know if Luka is trying it when he shouldn’t, or if DJ isn’t expecting the pass, but there is an abnormal amount of these passes that are unsuccessful,  and they are borderline turnovers.  And I am absolutely thrilled with what both guys bring to the team, they just need to figure it out.

[immortal13 4059]

It seems pretty high percentage to me. I'm sure if you looked at the numbers, that would prove to be the case. Sure they are going to miss a few, but likely will get better as the season goes along.

This isn't why they need more time together but they do need more time together. Can't wait to see how we fuck teams up after the all Star break

[Etexhorn13 3054]

I’m just happy the Mavs are exciting to watch again. Finally seeing a plan start to  come together and winning some games has been a sight for sore eyes. 

[Post Oak 20310]

DSJ for Mo Bamba who says no?

[SilasCoade 2622]

everyone?

[CBT 1287]

Orlando, if anything, because he's under team control for an extra year. 

[Drew 2552]

So fun to watch love Doncic. Dude is a perfect fit here to take over after Dirk.

What a lot of the league and non mavs fans don’t know is that Dirk has a legendary sense of humor, especially the self deprecating kind. Luka seems like he gives no fucks and just acts like a kid at times. Love it.

[CBT 1287]

Jaaaaaau jaaaaay buh-raaaaaaaaay-uhhhhhh

[CBT 1287]

That ball movement tho

[conVINCEd 21474]

Luka was ok tonight.  24-10-5 and it didn’t feel like he played great.  If that’s his mediocre game, I’ll take it.  I like that he is figuring out how to get to the stripe.  Barnes may be the most underrated, overpaid player in the league, if such a thing is possible.

[Vic Mackey 47189]

 

[Vic Mackey 47189]

They actually called a double tech on this...

 

[Vic Mackey 47189]

Denied, bitch!

 

[Vic Mackey 47189]

Looks like Dirk will make his debut tonight.

[bluto 4944]

DSJ is a poor/broke mans westbrook, this team is so different and more efficient with JJ running point

[CBT 1287]

What a weirdly horrible shooting night. It's tough to win the second night of a B2B, but they really needed to win that one, schedule gets super tough very soon. 

[dcar00 14438]

that was brutal.  hope that loss to easily the worst team in the NBA doesn't come back to bite us.

That game sucked. That video intro for the GOAT was greatness tho. 

[Firemans4Horn 18189]

Mavs might try playing some defense. Jokic looks like he’s going up some 9th graders. 

[SameSame 1707]

1st team to 140?

[RexWilson 1348]

Stupid Wes. Commits a foul, then runs his mouth about the call and gets the tech. Back and forth game.

[Party_Taco 3793]

Tough loss, but Denver is a good team. This is why we can’t give away games to fucking Phoenix...
