November 9, 20196 yr 36pts to the second worst offense in the league. We are back to 2000's level defense around here.

November 9, 20196 yr THJ is pissing me off. Pretty much any time he gets the ball he's going to shoot it. And tonight that means he’s probably going to miss it.
November 9, 20196 yr As good as the supporting cast was in that Denver game they have been equally awful tonight thus far. That’s going to have to change to win this game.
November 9, 20196 yr Hardaway a cool 1 of 8 from three. But yea, definitely the guy I want with the 3rd most shots on the team.

November 9, 20196 yr Seth Curry, a top 3-point shooter in the league, did not get a single shot all night. That just cannot happen. I don’t understand what Carlisle is doing with him. Set up some plays to get him some looks.

I suppose we could send him home a la Carmelo and Houston last year, but that expiring could do us some good next year.

November 9, 20196 yr Porzingis, Morant and Brandon Clarke all out tonight. Kind of bummed the Grizz rookies won't be playing. Wanted to get a look at their game. Will be interested to see how RC handles front court rotations. I'm guessing we see some Boban, but mostly compensate with more lineups that have 3 ball handlers
November 11, 20196 yr ThAt knocks Gabe was horrible. It wasn’t even about Seth and the lineup. They are horrible at blocking out and slow way too many second chance points. They fall in love with the 3 and keep taking it when it’s not falling instead of driving fit easy buckets and fouls. They can’t defend bigs that can shoot either. Particularly Powell. Gotta sure up those things.

November 11, 20196 yr Yes. Think I was responding during the Cowboys game. So yeah, I definitely had a stroke. I was saying the Knicks game was horrible.
November 11, 20196 yr Author Boston has been great so far, really looking forward to the match up, even without Hayward.
November 12, 20196 yr Author This female ref has more missed calls in her area than she has bad calls. That’s...impressive?
November 12, 20196 yr Author Flagrant pretty unlucky there. Obviously wasn’t trying to his his head, but did. Could the the difference. Also, Kemba is good.
November 12, 20196 yr Author Dallas has to be the worst Q4 free throw shooting team in the association.
November 12, 20196 yr It's early in the year, but Porzingis has been pretty disappointing on both ends of the court. He plays so far from the basket on offense, which can be a benefit, but his TS% is at 51.8%. Defensiviely, he's had some great blocks, but our rebounding hasn't been all that stellar. I'd like to see Boban play a bit more as I think his defense would definitely help the team at least protect the rim and get rebounds, even if offensively he's not quite the best fit (his TS% and Offensive Rating are hilarious, however). Either way, we have to play Porzingis as his play will really drive whether this team makes the playoffs or not.

There is certainly some adjustment to the speed of the game, the defense etc. It's easy to hit jumpers in practice with no one on you. He will get better. I don't think he can get back to all star level this year but next year onward you are looking at 2 Mavs as all stars with Luka starting. I will say his shot blocking is the part of his game closest to his previous level. Still has to work on shot selection, his D, and rebounding

BIG issue with this team, and TBH if they hit their FT's late they win the Lakers, Nicks, and Portland games. 7 hours ago, GabrielsHorn said: It's early in the year, but Porzingis has been pretty disappointing on both ends of the court.

If he's still like this mid December I might start to worry. Plus it looks like the flow of the offense with him just isn't good right now. Looks like it'll take some time for him to feel comfortable.
November 13, 20196 yr Author I keep trying to talk myself into those, but I've seen so many great crowd sourced uniforms...I just can't. To be fair, we've had worse.

November 14, 20196 yr Those silver jerseys we opened the '03-04 year against LAL are pretty tough to beat (or to lose to, i guess?). I should have known that night that team was destined to be one of my least fav Mavs teams ever
November 14, 20196 yr Author At the Garden tonight, KP back in town, national TV game... I, for one, hope KP goes for 40.
