Better third quarter for sure. To be fair, the spurs are hitting a lot of shots they haven't been in the past few years. They have some talent

Lots of teams hit shots they don't normally make against us. There is a reason for that.

Some of these guys don't hit runners or even open looks at this clip on a given night. Im not saying our defense doesn't facilitate some of that, but you know that's not what I meant

He's having a rough 3P shooting night, but he's made some good passes and he's had his typical nice shooting night from 3-6 feet.gigem1223 said:
Irving has been terrible tonight.

THJ should not be in the game anymore. He is 0 for his last 6 or 7 from 3.
Edit: meant thumbs down.

He's definitely picked it up this quarter. THJ should not be in the floor. Get Green back out there.

Feels good to win. They didn't play well for long stretches, especially in the first half, but they won a clutch game, which they had a hard time doing last year.

Should be the starting and closing lineup for the rest of the year, but my gut tells me we'll get a way too healthy dose of DJJ starting.gigem1223 said:
Really like the Luka, Irving, Williams, Green, Lively line up.

End of game looked way better. Luka fed Irving for the big 3. That's what should happen. Kyrie is a better shooter so let Luka drive and dump in that situation.
1-0 let's go.

31 minutes for Lively off the bench, 16/10/1 on 7-8 shooting, 1 steal, 1 block, 5 ORebs, +/- +20. Fantastic debut!

It really seemed like the Spurs were aware of his presence near the basket as well.
Just can't believe we saw that type of game from him offensively. There was not a lot of evidence that a performance like this was coming so soon.

Lively was amazing. I wasn't expecting much at all from him.
How did hardy get 0 minutes? That's insane. And how did djj get minutes?? That's also insane. But we have kidd.
Great road win. I'll take it to start the year. LFG

Yup, can't overreact to one game, but if this is the type of potential he has, the Mavs got an absolute steal on draft night and he will be a key piece of this team going forward.

Look at the bright side: we saw 0 minutes of Dwight Powell. I think Clinton was still in office last time that happened.

Hardy's been a bit banged up with that ankle and they ended up running a pretty tight rotation. I wouldn't worry about Hardy getting his minutes this season.

Me waiting for Bill Simmons to admit the Mavs were correct as he says tanking is good for every other team.
