That dude had just made a good defensive play to get Luka scrambling at the end of the quarter.  I guess he thought it would be a good idea to talk shit about it even though Luka had just dropped 21 in the third.  

Some people aren't doing a good job of accepting his greatness.  Or the fact that they're gonna be dealing with it for a long ass time.

He still gets shit from opposing players, especially the 2nd stringers and young guys because, let's face it, he's a Euro and White.  They think they can make a name for themselves by "punking" Luka.  Problem is that Luka isn't about that.  He may be soft spoken and a bit shy in interviews, but he seems like a dog on the court.  Trash talk, taking it strait at defenders and so forth.

Drew's right. Its because he's a white Euro.

They're blinded. They can't see his a killer

We need a Bobby Portis to handle that shit

Just sign Charles Oakley to a 10 day contract and let him know exactly what his job is.

And when he gets suspended, sign rick mahorn. Etc.

Why in the hell would you not double team Jokic there when he has a mismatch on Wright? We just gifted them the lead.

Why is DFS guarding Jokic with 15 seconds left? That’s not smart. 

I agree.

Oh for fucks sake Finney Smith. Not sure I’ve ever seen a player have a worse 2 minute stretch to end the game. 

We have got to learn to close out close games with a win.

So fucking stupid. We allowed Jokic to easily get right under the basket for an easy lay in. No double at all? DFS can't contain him on his own.

They got him on the switch but when the ball got tipped and Denver reset I have no idea why DFS and Powell didnt switch back.

Why not at least double? Make somebody hit an open 20 footer instead of giving him a layup.

This. 

Shot clock shouldn't have reset before Delon's 3 rattled out. Curious if he actually got it off, and had it gone in wtf the refs would have done to determine if he did

17 point 4th. Yet another game where they just can’t do shit in the last 8 minutes of the game.   I’d like to see a split of shooting % and turnovers for/against in the first 40 vs last 8.

Well that loss sucked. That out of bounds was clearly off the Denver guys hand.

Or at least foul him early on and take chances with free throws and rebound with more than 5 seconds left.

Carlisle does not like to double team because he refuses to leave open shooters at the 3. Normally I agree with that but not at the end of the game like that. You have to get the ball out of their best player's hands just like they did to us. 

So are we officially hitting the panic button on KP? Already listed as out the next 2 games...

At least it's the other knee. They keep saying 'pain' and not 'injury' but it's been a while now. 

Not quite on topic, but it will get more eyeballs here than on the for sale board.  I’m looking for two lower level tickets, preferably between the baselines, to give my dad for his birthday.  Not terribly picky about which game and would like to stay in the vicinity of face value.  If anyone is looking to get rid of some, PM me.

9:00 tip tonight versus Brin. Unless the AAC gets swept up in a tornado. T&Ps.

Giving up 45 pts on 60% shooting in the 1st qtr seems less than ideal...

This game is trash so far but I’m getting a Boban shirsey.

this is the worst game I've seen Luka play. Poor decision making, shot not falling, not playing hard on D.

Stfu Lebron. You get every fucking call and talk to Rick because he’s bitching about an obvious missed foul. Fuck you.

I love Wrights game so much. Dallas is one run from being in this thing. Surprised Rick hasn’t broken the JJ emergency glass yet.

Boban has 10 pts and 8 boards in 6 minutes. Give him some more minutes 

I feel Luka plays better when he keeps things light hearted and fun. When he plays angry things don't work as well. I get its hard to have fun when losing but I feel like it just gets exponentially worse for him when he can't mentally refocus 

Can't wait til someone breaks down what the Lakers are doing on defense. They're playing a zone until Luka runs the PnR and then doubling on Luka until he passes, at which point LA goes back to man to cover the open Maverick. It's crazy how well it's working. Lakers look like they're playing with 6 on the floor.

Ultra superstars have always gotten calls.  That’s life.  LBJ is still playing at near his peak.

this team wont go anywhere without a guy who can play solid defense on bigger wings

Also won’t go anywhere without KP. This stretch combined with the stretch we did well without Luka has shown that. This isn’t even close to the same team without him.

The big question is, how reliable is KP going to be here in Dallas? His durability worries me. I know the injury this time is not the same knee but big men with his injuries are very vulnerable going forward. That was always the risk.

oh agreed completely. I really hope this will shut up the people who are obsessed with his shooting percentage. Not that KP is better than Luka or anything close, but its crazy how effective the Mavs were with Luka out vs with KP out

Didn't you hear, Luka is already top 10 in the history of the NBA right now and is better than Dirk ever was in his entire career....

Luka is a really good player, but he didn't have KP to make up for all the time Luka just sits on the offensive end crying even when he doesn't get touched haha

You’re right, but that’s not what I was talking about.

Just tuning in. Seems like a good bounce-back performance here in clutch time. 

What a strange game. Between turnovers and offensive rebounds allowed, I can't quite figure out how we weren't down 20 after 1st qtr. Philly needs some dudes who can shoot pretty badly
