  1. Acreativeusername69

    PJ put Duren in P PRISON tonight! Awesome game and deserved record broken for Luka!

  2. johndogerty

    Don’t let this distract you from the fact Powell scored more than Kleber

  3. pedroffabreu23

    Highlight of tonight Piston’s crew saying how good THJ’s for us. Chuckled a little bit ngl

  4. andyurastar

    Why don’t the mavs play Detroit every game? Are they stupid?

  5. Second half was awesome.

    It’s unfortunate but it’s not the Kleber from 2-3 years ago, age and injuries have killed mobility. Away will be one of my favs though

  6. Putrid_Ad_2256

    At least the Mavs didn’t have to rely on the position of coach playing this team.

  7. this_is_a_name522

    Tim “factory reset” hardaway showing up!!

  8. TurebergPirates

    Keep feeding Gafford and start benching Maxi

  9. YoStepWithLuka77

    Gafford pickup is another Nico masterclass move 🫡

  10. Slashers23

    Nice little win, now let’s ride the momentum and finish the season on a big win streak!

  11. Complexity777

    Solid win and history performance by Luka, need better D from guys like Green going forward 

  12. Archerbro

    Hardaway back? he was balling tonight in stretches.

  13. Putrid_Ad_2256

    Gafford’s record should be acknowledged. He broke Powell’s record, most consecutive shots made.

  14. Darkphobia_

    Much needed good vibes win. Ky got some rest, Luka on fewer mins too. Gafford is so nice to have, esp on nights without Lively.

  15. CheetahSperm18

    Glad we took care of business considering how tight the standings are getting. Hopefully the Celtics do us a solid and beat the Suns

  16. Cade is a class act and great player. Wish we could get him for Timmy and a bag of Funyuns.

  17. TurebergPirates

    Are you guys ready for the r/NBA “Luka is a stat padder”

  18. mavericksnipe

    Thank you Pistons for chanting Luka sucks. Don’t you know that gets him going LOL These fans will never learn to not trash talk him.

  19. TurebergPirates

    Gafford’s giggle at PJ defending him gives me hope

  20. Celtics doing us a favor right now. Fuck the play in. Let’s get that 6th seed.

  21. GauthZuOGZ

    Guys I couldnt catch the game, how was Timmy? Box score says ok, what about eye test?

    Go Mavs

  22. ExcellentJuice4729

    19 offensive rebounds given up, sheesh

  23. Valuable-Ad1018

    Imagine if Kidd playing gafford more than kleber, kidd is a bum man those loses against cleveland, pacers and sixers are all his fault

  24. lilsaucy32

    This game was like Toronto. Awful first half, played solid defense in the 3rd and it was a comfy win.

    Still concerned over the perimeter defense. It’s bad man.

    The interior defense is good. Funny how quickly things change lmao.

    Focus is on Chicago on Monday. 1 game at a time.

  25. FewMedia5542

    Jason Kidd holding back omax minutes for Luka’s record.

  26. Stevie_McGhee

    Good win. THJ should watch a video of his performance in the 2nd half on loop because that’s how he is supposed to play.

    I hope Lively comes back against the bulls. You can already picture in your head the things Vuc and Drummond will do against Maxi.😖

  27. ITakeLargeDabs

    The last two games Gafford has played more minutes and we have two solid wins with him playing a big part. Compare that to the 4 games prior where he hardly played and we looked exactly like the team before the trade. Crazy what happens when you play the guy you traded for.

  28. I’m happy to have Simone on my team, but i think he would be a great addiction for a lot of contenders on the bench.

  29. Scooter9898

    This team would take off if Hardy got Hardaway minutes. Phase out Maxi minutes too.

  30. eageecute

    Too bad mavs is not top 6, luka could be the front runner for mvp

  31. slimkid07

    Solid and much needed win.

    Luka is Luka. A beast.

    The Pistons are a mess but they have a great foundational piece in Cade.

  32. TZBlueIce

    I don’t think this team is making a deep run in the playoffs, but I still think PJ and Gafford have proven to be good pickups that have improved the foundation that we’re building.
