    Our defense making everybody look good. And of course Porzingis is playing well since we have no size.

    Simons is borderline unplayable with his defense. He’s regressing

    23-6 on assists. Jason Kidd has a better gameplan than we do. Jesus.

    Hopefully someone bet their life saving on the Mavs moneyline tonight -- not sure how the Blazers could possibly be favorites in this matchup :dunno: @MickZagger

    13 points, 4 rebounds, 2 steals and 3 blocks from your future SF.

    Nice half Nas. :smiley-smiley-049::onfire::smiley-beerchug::twothumbs: Now, build on that.

    I think Porzingis likes playing without Doncic. Of course he also likes playing against a team where he is 7" taller than any of them.

    This team needs a hard reset and needs it fast. They are playing like a team that knows that some/most of them will likely not be on roster in the near future. There is no energy, no chemistry, no cohesion. Teams from the past you could tell there was chemistry and guys rooted for each other. This team you see none of that.

    Offensely we got 3 scorers this game Powell got 12 but that's attempting 10 shots and Little having a real good half with 13 points and Dame have only took 9 shots but 18 point and 8-9 from free throw line actually pretty good. Now defense there a no show by overall team defense and only person standing out there is Little with 2 steals and 3 blocks.

    The Blazers were batting near .1000 with second round picks….

    Until now.

    Elleby looks like he’s destined for China :blink:

    2nd round was great. Unfortunately, the 1st round, where you get the difference makers, has been abysmal.

    Mavs improved their 3P% from 25% at the quarter to 43% at the half, and they still killed us in the paint.

    We truely are the Portlan_ Trail Blazers.

    Holton kind of calling out Dame for not getting the rest of the team more involved based on how the Mavs are playing defense.
