Not that impressed with Dallas - Donic and Porzingis are both great offensively, but the Mavericks don't really have much else, and their defense is average at best.

Kaminsky not even close shooting the ball. We've worked our way back with the role players and bench but you know the refs are going to take us out of it.
They tried.

I don't think I've seen Harden or LeBron get as many calls in a game as Doncic tonight.
He’s the refs’ golden boy.

Oh man, what a confidence-building win for everyone but Ayton. The team has to be fired up after tonight.

The Mavs gave this game away, but shout out to Payne, Carter and Rubio who came up clutch when Booker picked up his 5th. Saric also did well replacing Ayton. Kaminsky was trash.

If we can pull this one out, it’s one of the more impressive wins of the season.
Yes, it was. Yes, it was.

Saric has played really well the last two games - 49 Min, 9/14 FG, 14 rebounds, 3 assists, 29 points

Payne with some big minutes and big plays tonight.

We wasted a couple possession with sloppy TOs but holding onto the lead. Saric with a big 3 from the corner off the Book assist. I want to see us play to win, not get tight and play not to lose.
Luckily the Mavs played for the win otherwise we might be in OT right now.

Here comes Ayton. I give him less than 3 minutes before he's back on the bench.
He lasted it quite a while. Better than Booker.

Rubio's the unsung hero this game so far.
Dump him! I’m surprised we don’t have a thread dedicated to it it’s brought up so much.

Longer than I expected, for sure. I think Booker came in a few minutes before him, though.

And they foul out Booker on that? It’s probably a foul, but stupid.
They built the lead without him, they can hold on to the lead without him for another minute and half.
YES THEY CAN!

Nice game by Cam Johnson. Also like what Payne has shown (whither Ty Jerome ...) Solid contribution by Saric.

Nice win, given the refs gave Doncic foul shots every time any Sun violated his six-foot personal distancing space ....

Suns aren’t winning this with Deandre on the bench. Plain and simple.
Oh, really?
Hey, I was right. He was on the court at the end. Lol

Great win! Just when all hope was lost... BANG!

Ugh, though. Clippers next.
