    Correct. Every guy who is starting is a starter until the guy he replaced returns. I never said Whiteside wasn't a starting-caliber player, did I?

    Do you disagree that CJ, Hood, Collins, and Nurk would be starting if they were all fully healthy?

    Mavs have too much firepower. I’m not feeling like this is a winnable game.

    Stotts' patented drop the big pick n roll scheme is getting absolutely destroyed. Will he adjust? Probably not.

    You're just being disingenuous.

    Obviously they would be. But we have a starting-level replacement for Nurkic, so we're not missing a starting center right now.

    After one game of mixing things up on the defensive end, we go right back to defending the screen and roll the same old way and giving up open shot after open shot.

    This coaching staff really deserves to lose, either for the lack of imagination or the lack of effort.

    Doncic is whining to the refs during the timeout, he’s not in the Mavs huddle.

    Could you imagine what this game would look like if Lillard was out because he was sick?

    We are 5 steps behind the offense player off screen. I have give Dallas credit for running plays. Right now for us majority of the time no ball movement or ball movement.

    If that would've happened CJ probably wouldn't have gotten hurt though so yeah.

    Dallas over the limit, take it to the rim!

    I’d like to see more Melo posts.

    Is it just me or are teams always playing us not at full strength?

    I complimented Dame's effort and followed it up with a statement you refuse to disagree with. I made those statements with full sincerity and had zero clue either were controversial.

    I think there are a handful of stars in the league who would throw in the towel with the type of adversity this team has faced.
