  1. The only way THJ hits those previous scoring levels is if he jacks up 30 shots a night.

  2. I really like Gafford and D-Live on the floor, but if we have to go “small” and that means Maxi, PJ, (and then DJJ and Dante), I feel pretty good with that.

  3. We know what will be getting from Luka and Kyrie. This series will be decided by whether or not the Mavs role players can hit their open shots through committee. Unfortunately, we don't have a single reliable 3rd scorer on this team.

  4. That was probably the worst basketball game I’ve ever watched THJ Hardy and Josh Green should be released via stretch provision

  5. There are no questions about Kyries playoff performances… he’s had one bad series in his entire career

  6. I wouldn’t look at kyries last playoff as any significant measure. Last playoffs he came from suspension he had no chance to be in shape and the nets refused to play through him because ownership was angry with him. Thats why Celtics swept them they let Kyrie run point 1 game went down to the final shot after that they went to kd who can’t handle the ball and Celtics bullied him. The season before they were dominating until he got injured. The nets had beat Celtics 4-1 and they were beating bucks pretty bad. His season with Celtics look at any interview all the young players jb/terry/smart had quit on the team because they didn’t like their roles. That Celtics team needed jb/terry to play off the bench and defense. Instead the Celtics had an issue of cluster fck from pg,sg, and sf. The younger players wanted contracts and minutes they didn’t want to play under Gordon and Morris. That caused the team to not have chemistry and they were undersized. I wouldn’t view the last Celtic season or last bk season as meaningful.

  7. Today’s game was embarrassing. This is concerning in the playoffs. Don’t play anyone from today’s game.

  8. I can understand tanking those last 2 games but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Killed the positive vibes for me

  9. Kyrie has nothing to prove. He is already an NBA champion and is a very important part of it.

  10. Eh kyrie was going against very good defenses at the time in boston and Brooklyn much less size here in the west

  11. The Mavs need to go big by placing Gafford and Lively as long as possible to punish the smaller 5-out clippers and control the rebounds in the paint area. Small ball line-up (Maxi as 5) is only used as transition time or a desperate period. There is no point in giving up the Mavs' height advantage to play small against the Clippers.

  12. Can PJ, THJ and Maxi hit at least 35% of their threes. I expect the Clippers D to give them plenty of opportunities

  13. @Nick a racoon squad from PH, can you discuss if it'll matter that we have a different coach compared to the time when we are giving a hard time to the clips series(will it matter?)

  14. Jason Kidd may try to spin the last two games as no-bearing games, but this just shows that the mavs are toast against the clippers without kyrie and luka because the players are unprepared without a game plan and are clueless without the two superstars.

    The Mavs with their whole crew except for Kye and Luka got spanked by the lowly Pistons (who earlier in the season recorded a historic losing streak), then against OKC got bamboozled big time with two rotation players Tim and Josh not doing anything remotely significant when they have the green light to do anything tonight.

    Compare that to the Clippers where in their game against PHX, without 6 of their best players (Kawhi, PG, Harden, Westbrook, Powell, Zubac), the Clips LEAD the Suns throughout most of the game until the Suns (playing with their entire roster) mounted a run in the last few minutes of the 4th when the Clippers bench players are already gassed. Bones Hyland (37 games played, 15 mins/game, 7 pts/game – basically their Josh Green) had a career high 37 points.

    Second to the last game against Utah, Clippers lost by only 1 point behind their bench crew and a few pedestrian minutes from their starters. Today against HOU, lost by only 11 playing without the 6 players AND Hyland.

    Kidd is actually not joking or being sarcastic when he says that Luka (and Kye) are the system, because in reality, they are.

  15. if it wasnt for kyries injury next to Durant they wouldve won and even with the injuries a toe on the line cost them in game 7 just stupid to say kd and Kyrie dont fit together

  16. just got done hooping now time to watch locked on mavs. Like this comment if you a hooper

  17. Everyone complaining about that last game not realizing the guys about to play are going to be fresh and healthy. Yall acting like they won't be in the gym working their ass off the next 2 weeks. Mavs in 6
