Reggie “the winter soldier” Bullock has entered the season chat
Dwight did so much good work that doesn’t show up in the stat sheet. Great contribution to the win
Make your free throws, win close games. Let’s do that more often!
UnDoe One HunDoe
That jump ball had my heart rate up
Love Woods attitude he’s been nothing but a good teammate
Back to .500 as is our destiny.
Well that was a W
Even the wins are a bit of a slog with this team. I’ll take it though. On to the next.
That’s a solid win
Fuuuck me this one ugly motherfucker
Win is a win of course
Spencer straight up shoved Gobert at the end, refs helped us a lot this game
We got out of the Midbowl lol, glad we finished this series, absolute pain to watch both of these games.
Timmy passing up a layup to swish a heavily contested 3 was the turning point in this game lol
They made free throws and open threes.
Don’t know how I feel about this win. Some of it was great and you can see potential and some of it was just a complete mess like we didn’t know what we were doing. I’ll take the W though happy for the team
The last 5 minutes of the game:
sloppy playing but a win is a win
Good W but we prob gonna lose the next game knowing our tendencies lol
Nice W.
Please stop with the “let sit Luka and tank this season”, let the guys play.
Tank is off!!! 4 games back from that first seed!
The mavericks had a lead in the closing minutes and held onto it. Thank goodness. All is well in maverick land tonight.
James Capers over Rodney Mott
Reggie roll some of those threes to the next game come on man
Wood probably saved the game, with that clutch block
What’s the record for most sore loser buckets in a season? I feel like Mavs receive one every time they win.
My respect towards Dwight has been GREATLY increased
Truly a battle of the MID teams.
Went 1-1 and both got back to .500.
The difference is literally Tim and Reggie hit big 3s. We literally live and die by the 3
3/4 on clutch free throws. That’s gotta be a record for this team.
These are the games we need to win. If we can still be .500 when everyone gets back, we are in good shape.
Great game to watch tonight. But what was funny, in the 4th quarter we ran the same play over and over again and got great looks where Luka came off Wood screen and had the option to pass to Cwood or an open 3 in the corner. It was funny how long it took Twolves to stop that.
Ball movement baby! It wins games.
Please let this be the start of something i dont wanna be a .500 anymore
If Reggie hit 2 three per game, we might have +5 win now lol
Why does Wood always does that half ass screen for Luka. Pretty infuriating to see tbh. Anyways good win overall and ciuld be used as building blocks for getting momentum
Mavs win, and Patron Saint Jalen “he def wanted to re-sign here” Brunson shoots 3/14 for 7 points in a Knicks loss.
It’s a good day to be a MFFL.
Eff the haters, as always.
felt like we didn’t play good D but it was still undoe one hundoe
Every mavs game that you watch shaves one week off of your hearts lifespan
Doncic with 25/9/10, missing his 53rd triple double
Luka 1-5 from 3, 8-9 from the line. Such is life
Nice to see us win the 3pt battle for a change. Luka was immense tonight. Far better body language despite the clear fatigue(no offseason) and he brought us home. Wood is a certafied dumbass but he frustrates as you see glimpses of real quality in him. Dinwiddie is playing really well off ball. Kemba sucked tonight and isnt the answer. We need an upgrade. Play Frank with Luka more.
Dwight may not be the perfect player but his hustle and energy is what you love out of a bench player.
Unfortunately he’s sorta kinda our starter. Someday we’ll have a fully complete center.
finnaly a win against a trash team
Team needs to implement some type of motion offense when the game gets stagnant and the ball stops moving. Too many possessions dribbling the ball in front of a defender for 20+ seconds and taking a contested shot.
Great win for the Mavs.
W
It feels like there would be a lot more comments here if the Mavs lost tonight.
Great win!!!
