Always nice to have the Spurs come through… that may not be the case in years to come, but we needed this get right game in the worst way. Now to start winning against good teams!

    Dirk going to LA for Luka’s debut. Probably the biggest FU yet to this front office.

    Isn’t trading your star player and having all your good players injured and then raising ticket prices the plot of major league II?

Man, I haven’t watched a minute of the last 2 games. Maybe I’m on to something. 

Klay needs to get  going...maybe it will just take a bit but somewhat underwhelmed so far.

I honestly expected him to get a lot more looks, but he’s still not making the most of the ones he gets, especially off the dribble.

What is the introduction of Dallas Mavs starting lineup theme song from 2011?  I heard it just now on ABC telecast of Florida vs. LSU.  Evidently there are some lyrics to this piece.  I might have heard "putting in the work".... 

 

thx

I never knew that was an actual song.

The fact that it’s the Who has always been so confusing to me… has STRONG Phil Collins / Genesis vibes

Nice to see Klay hit from deep. We are a different team when he hits like this. 

actually blowing out a team we're supposed to? feels good

That's my release.

Sorry we were holding an NBA finals time to a standard of being above .500. 

You could see early season struggles coming from a mile away. And that wasn't even factoring in injuries.

When this team puts it all together it's going to be fun.

I don't think many would agree with you that they saw "struggles coming from a mile a way". We're also still not in a play-in spot, so this trend needs to keep going.

Lolz at concerns with record in fucking NOVEMBER…

I, for one, saw a rough start coming with the roster adjustments and Luka’s approach to offseason. Didn’t think it would be quite so dire, but we were very much IN all of those losses.

We’ll figure it out, it’s just frustrating in the meanwhile, but so is life as a Mavs fan.

I literally said it on this thread on October 28th. And you liked it.

Everything's gonna be ok.

I liked it because I agreed the Kidd was gonna do kid shit, not because I was okay with the team starting 5-7 and losing to the worst team in the conference. How about this--next time the Mavs have a sub .500 streak, I'll ask for your permission if it's okay to be frustrated or not. Sound good?

This court is gross.

It is ridiculous.

If Luka does that it is probably a double tech.  what  bullshit.

I generally really enjoy Jokic, but considering his style of play complaining about that in the last seconds of a game is pretty absurd. 

What a fucking win! Step in the right direction for sure, but TBH I don’t know if we win this game with Luka… and I hate even thinking that way.

Love the dude. Like, really love him, but his style is ass. I get the MVPs, but if you try to call him "the best player in the world" you're a fucking idiot. There's a mile between the "best player" and the hardest to defend, as these NBA refs work. 

Bully ball is trash but it works. Just ask Lebron.

He's more than just bully ball, he's the facilitator the entire offense runs through.

That was part of my "hardest to defend" point. Most of his overhead passes are ugly as shit too. Doesn't make them bad. But they're coming out of bully shit. If the easy bucket is there he's taking it (75% of the time). If not he's probably going to the line. Otherwise, open 3 (hopefully Russ).

Ky looks gassed… really needed to win that in regulation, but FTs, unnecessary 3PT jacks cost ‘em.

If we can find a way to skank this out it will be huge.

Spencer and Ky both ice cold to close it out and Klay can’t get a look [emoji2371][emoji2357]

Spencer gunning for Kobe's 81 tonight.

Kyrie s been upgraded to available.

Cannot overstate how big a win this is on the tail end of a B2B.

Just handling business tonight.

Especially after the gut punch last night. Lots of grit.

I mean, that do be happening in Miami

Fat fuck Kendrick taking veiled shots at Luka and Ky on the pregame. Said Brunson and KAT are the "best duo in the league" and said it didn't take them 50 games to figure out how to play together. Fat and dumb is a bad combination.

Is our prodigal son Mark calling the game for ESPN?

Tough crowd.  I liked all of it.  Mavs uniforms and logos have been underwhelming for most of their existence.  This combo is one of the better ones.
