What’s 1 reason the Mavs lost to the Bucks?
Grant and DJJ shot us out of this one unfortunately
kid need to play holmes instead powell
Kyrie is on fire, but all of a sudden when he pulled oit, mavs no score in 3-4 minutes.
As far as I'm concerned, if this game was ref'd evenly the mavs win easily. If Luka had Dame's whistle he'd get 20 FTs per game. Can't do much about it, just refocus and win tomorrow.
Let’s go, Mavs!
Josh Green pretty bad this year.
Luks -17 , Kyrie +13
How did it go from a 10pt lead to 1 pt lead?
Even if he gets those calls it doesn't matter he is not a clutch free throw shooter like most point guards .
Wow . Such cry babi** Luka has the mavs fans crying. Dame is a master at drawing fouls. Luka likes to shoot from the perimeter. Which you won't get many calls . Also
Middleton is a 3 time all-star who didn't even play .
We can’t beat good teams … we will get smoked tomorrow by the kings on a back to back
I don't know if it's just me but Powell cant play for the mavs and it has nothing to do with how he plays but its seems when he plays team just play differently almost like the what so long to do something they've always wanted to do when he plays like games really swing on how effective he's minutes are backing up DLive… plus yoh i dont car The Refs gave us this loss so we gotta not let that happen like forcing contested corner 3 or not just l8ve and die on a possible 26 point 4th quarter by Kyrie… if this team wants to compete with the top team then they have to have a rule if Kyrie hits 4 in row in the 4th he might as well take all the shots and passes… some of Luka misses were fouls but still makeable for him, and thats just accountability that Luka needs to focus and not worry about the whistle because Refs are bound to get it wrong for anybody in any game.. like for real Luka's Focus in the game is the difference between him being one of the greatest players and actually being the greatest player ever he needs a little F it in him because look at he's free throws that just a focus thing we know if he locks in he is not missing anything easy at any time that is Luka is almost there he just has to discipline and consistent… i know the refs are bad but when you get the L you just ask yourself why even bother complaining all that time… but im not saying this is the reason we lost i just noticed something trending in the past few games
Grant Williams feels kinda clumsy and plodding from time to time, and he isn't very skilled on the dribble making him prone to some Maxi-like cringe, but he has been the sharpshooter on a team full of "shoot a three in your face" players, which is very respectable. He's been really fun to watch.
Your analyzing is wrong kyrie-luka cannot carry the team the whole game. Mavs cannot win against big powerful teams like the nuggets, celtics, bucks etc.the role players are incompetent. They must trade powell, green and kebler for a big wing and center who could defend, rebound and create their own shots. With that lineup of role players the mavs cannot even win on a playoff series. Change also the coaches. Do your math well bro
Luka was a -17. The Mavs literally went on a run when Luka was on the bench. All facts
Great game and really fun to watch despite the result. These games just come down to minor variables and there are plenty of those you could point to – Payne actually hitting shots, Giannis making a 3 etc.. Overall the team looked good and we didn't reveal any weaknesses we didn't know about anyway.
This would feel okay except The Bucks are not that great of a team this year. One of the worst coaches in the NBA against and even worse coach in Kidd. This was a collapse.
Luka gotta make those late game free throws Luka should not have shot that 3 pointer when we were down by 5 or 7 that changed the entire game and Grant William has to shot those wide open mid range shots he passed up on like 3. Kye played well.
I didn’t watch the game, so the missed 3s in the 4th quarter might have been wide open and just missed, but I would have liked so see someone notice the shots aren’t dropping and drive into the paint or take a mid range shot, to put points on the board. It’s not like we couldn’t score in the paint we had 56 points in the paint I think.
Powell needs to be a garbage time big, hopefully Nico can acquire Drummond or a decent big. Overall we had the game won but we’re missing a piece or 2.
Been saying that the Mavs need a legit center in the second unit as Powell isn't it. Luka and Kyrie got the offense to damn near 120 a game but somehow need 130/140 to win because of this mismatched unti on the bench. Too many guards
Live from Saddam Hussein's hideout 🙂 🙂
Iv defended Powell but cmon, Holmes needs to play over him
Cry babies.
powell was so dumb this game. he goes under the screen and doesnt show on dames threes
Bench scoring and interior D. OK that's 2 not 1. If we get anything from Green, Jones & Powell Mavs Win. The 4 stars basically all played great and pretty much offset each other. After that simply look at the box score. So obvious we are only 2 players short, add a quality long, tall 3D wing and 5, yes Lively is our future 5 and he is playing unbelievable for a rook but dang when e goes out it's Lay up time for other team. Just imagine what a Capala or similar or a OG, PS or even FS would make. Easier a 7 to 10 point turn around from current roster. When Luka and Irving play above average and score over 70 points and you lose??? There are major holes and we get killed going against teams with Big Tall 4 & 5's.
Greek & Lopez vs. Liv & Williams or Jones simply no contest over a few games. Jones has to hit his wide open 3's.
When Kyrie has it going Luka should defer and play off ball. Luka messes up the flow of the game when he is point guard but the team is winning off Kyrie’s momentum. We get it’s Luka’s team but if you want to win you to play selfless.
Kyrie defers to Luka and has adjusted his game. Luka needs to adjust his as well, he will stilll get his stats.
I never blame the refs but my god the referees were horrible! Whistling anything for the bucks and nothing for the mavs
Im not that positive. Mavs had 3 whole days to rest. Bucks were on b2b and without their 3 star. This should be a win if Mavs are a top team.
Powell is useless! + payed refs was just discusting at 4th. quarter!
Kyrie needs to control the ball n the Clutch. Luka has blow so many games in the four quarter with his Style of play.. Yes luka 1of the best ever💯. But kyrie needs to control the ball and score in the clutch. He has that dead eye.💯💯💯💯💯
Disgusting refereeing, Green and Powell unsuprisingly still being nom NBA level players, Kidd fcking up rotations (Green and Curry lineups) and late timeouts and Grant bricking every open 3 in 4th while their bums (Conaughton and crackhead Payne) making every shot ever taken.
Kyrie and Luka were straight up better than Giannis and Lillard but with everything else going against them there isnt much to do.
Nobody’s beating the box or nuggets if you can’t guard Giannis or jokic it’s simple grant Williams and lively are not the answer
Missed too many shots in the 4Q. 🤷♂️
What about Grant missed all those open 3s to lose the game!
Grant sold
LIVELY OUTPLAYED BROOK LOPEZ ON THE BOARDS
what did you expect? most of your wins came from beating below .500 teams lol
Luka went from yelling at refs to yelling at his team mates for any mistake they made…he literally yelled at someone for not picking up his man after "He" got blown by…..also watch how the players go wild when Kyrie scores….Luka is a potent offensive threat…but his disposition is gonna block him from true greatness…maybe he can take a page from Kyrie's book
Stop playing seth curry. Give hardy consistent minutes. Ffs ….
Luka style can be trash sometimes. Pass the f-in ball
This lost is not on Kidd. It's on the role players. Luka and Kyrie showed up and the rest of the team did nothing much. Hardaway was ok for bit but not much offense from the rest of the team.
