Game Thread 2023-24 Game #33 - BLAZERS @ MAVERICKS - JANUARY 3, 2024 - WEDNESDAY - 5:30 PM PST - ROOT

Pelicans are healthy so they’re crushing Minnesota on the road.

 

We won’t lose by 30.

 

Dallas at halftime:
+18 points off turnovers
+17 fast break points
+14 points in paint
+13 free throw attempts
+6 steals
+2 blocks
+5 assists
+23% FG shooting

 

I hate playing the Mavs

 

The paint will become a turnstile, then we'll adjust and that's when they'll really light us up. It's almost likely that this second half is a worse beat down than the first half was. The only thing that might save us is if the Mavs get complacent.

 

Wainwright will be delegated to the post

 

Dallas is 3 - 6 in their last 9 games. Just lost to Utah 127-90.

What is it that the Blazers can't figure out?

 

Jabari tweaked something, headed for the bench.

 

Simons hit a few shots. That will make the podcasters happy.

 

OKC was down 16 with 3 minutes to go and almost forced OT.

 

Kyrie didn’t play in all those games.

 

Past few games have been ugly. Not much to root for

 

I beg your pardon

 

Yep. They got Joe an open 3 that would’ve won the game.

 

I kinda wonder if Billups would resign before the Blazers ever fire him

 

Scoot clobbered Lively.
eat that Mavs

 

Last I checked it was a blow out. Thats why the NBA rules

 

Scoot just injured Lively? At least we get something.
