Game Day: Mavericks (40-28) @ Suns (27-39), Sun 8/2/20

[Split T]

If deandre isn’t going to try and defend Luka, do not switch that

[bajanguy008]

Ayton can't be serious
There's under a minute left , at least challenge the guy

[Mori Chu]

This is an intense finish. Suns up 2, Rubio blocked, Mavs ball with 22 sec left.

[ShelC]

The problem with going to Book so much down the stretch is that he fouls out and guys like Cam Johnson are cold and aren't part of the offense. I might've had Payton out there instead of Jevon for offense. Ayton doesn't even get a touch in the post.

[jonh]

They're just letting Doncic walk to the basket. If Ayton fouls out, so be it. Give some freaking resistance.

Based on how they are calling fouls on Doncic tonight, if Ayton provides any resistance, it would have been a foul. Its been pretty gross to watch.

[Split T]

Doncic scared of Bridges blocking his shit and threw the ball back out, haha

[Flagrant Fowl]

That's hard to see. Finney-Smith's hand was moving in the direction the ball was deflected, so...

[Shabazz]

I thought they would for sure call Ayton for a foul on that Kristaps 3.

[Flagrant Fowl]

2 down, 6 to go.

[Furlanfufi]

YES SIR MOTHERFUCKERSSSS

[Split T]

They really ran a play for the guy who was like 0-10? I’ll take it

[Shabazz]

ysmf

Tim Hardaway, 1-12 and 0-8 from 3 and they run the final play for him...interesting decision

[Flagrant Fowl]

Must be frustrating to be a Mavs fan. I know they don't really need these games, but that was brutal decision making by them.

[Superbone]

Suns aren’t winning this with Deandre on the bench. Plain and simple.

Oh, really?

[Superbone]

5 fouls on Book. Was fun while it lasted.

Yes, quite fun.

[Superbone]

Refs had to stomp out any tiny thoughts we had at making a playoff run.

Hmm. They tried their darndest but, no.

[Superbone]

Fuck this game.

Dude!

[Superbone]

Bye, Slim! It was nice knowing you.

He just went to the bathroom.

[ShelC]

Typical game from Hardaway. Hot one night, brutal the next. Same with Burke.

Big time character building win. Refs were giving this game to the Mavs, all our guys frustrated with foul trouble but huge contributions from Payne, Carter, Cam Johnson and Rubio with a great game. Dario stepped up, Frank gave us a few good possessions. Honestly didn't think we'd have a shot in the 2nd half. Loved the bench play in particular.
