    Great W but damn I wish we still had Boban

  2. ObligationDubai

    Really enjoyed the amount of fast break buckets we got tonight. Thanks Rockets for being so ass defensively.

    Great game for Luka Scarcic amongst others.

  3. WalkerTejasRanger

    5 in a row…let’s keep it rollin Saturday!

  4. josborne42

    Still undefeated in games I attend in person. LETS FUCKING GO. #MFFL.

  5. highfalutinman

    Christian “Winning Player” Wood NEEDS TO BE PAID

    CTC MARK

  6. TheDeadman95

    Good, proper, honest to God, a no-nonsense win against a bad team without depressing downs.

    Man, this one hit like a crack.

  7. DoncicsRoadTo200kg

    Man Luka is playing at a crazy level, if he gets help from the rest of the team like what happend tonight then we can beat anybody.

  8. Glitchhikers_Guide

    Thanks Santa for letting us play good basketball again.

  9. Quadriporticus

    5-game winning streak for the Mavs.

    3-0 for Dallas tonight.

  10. decadentrebel

    Assist of the night goes to Hardy for giving the 24 sec violation turnover to Pinson, lmaoooo

  11. StealthAnus

    After all our angst, we currently have the same record as the Suns lmao

  12. drivebabygoose

    McKinley Wright IV playing 23 minutes with one shot attempt is impressive. Guy made an impact still.

  13. Fit-Structure-9395

    GG Mavs same with the rockets,Future Mavs KPJ and Jabari

  14. BlackWhiteCoke

    The AAC cheering Boban every time he touched the ball was the best part of the night

  15. decadentrebel

    Powell throwing some shade on the fans who left the Knicks game early! 🤣

  16. LeGoat333

    No reason we shouldn’t win 7 straight and grab the 4 seed. Got spurs and rockets in our next two

  17. QBert999

    This was a great game. wasn’t as close as the score and the score was Mavs by 15. Luka with 35/12/13. Dinwiddie & Wood were both great. Powell with one of his best games.

    We dominated even with four rotation guys out.

  18. rhater0307

    We need to keep Wood. It is not easy to find a player to fit the team, on top of the fact that we are not good in acquiring good players unfortunately, I think it is better to take something proven to be good

  19. Butterfly_Scape

    we don’t win without all those blocks by wood…he’s genuinely becoming a good defender

  20. Wood been a block party since he became a starter

  21. MFFL12_17

    This game proves it: Wood starts and Powell comes off the bench will have great results.

  22. PrinceofEden23

    This is how we should be taking care of these weaker teams. Easy win. Good teams smash tanking teams. Mid teams lose to them.

  23. zerausco

    Man winning feels good we should keep doing it

  24. CheetahSperm18

    We’re seriously playing all our games in Texas from Dec 23 to Jan 7 lmao

  25. DirkNowitzkisWife

    Half game out of the 4 seed bitches

  26. Optimal-Somewhere-46

    These wins feels so good after going through all the preceding lows …

  27. epitome1986

    I love that dallas is keeping the trend going of starting off so so and then hitting a hot streak. hopefully they can have a few more blowout wins to give time to hardy.

  28. Frank_Cap

    Probably the least stressful game in of the season. What a joy it was to Watch. Especially after the high of last game.

  29. Active_Page_3886

    Keep the Luka-Wood duo together at all costs

  30. Semi-Pro-Narcissist

    Follow this up with 2 more wins to go 7 straight and we are right back in the mix for the top spots in the West. Most of teams above and around us either have tricky games coming up or play each other in the next week….while we have the eminently beatable Spurs and then Rockets again. Offence looks better, defence is much sharper and the whole team looks more connected and happy out there. Let’s hope that The 77 Comeback Special can be the turning point in our season.

  31. DetectiveLucky7266

    Luka scores an efficient 35 pt triple double but no one even mentions it because that shit is normal at this point.
