Chuck reminded me of David Lee Roth in his prime. I saw Van Halen in the 80’s and someone threw a bottle at him and missed. He just continued on with the song. After it ended he said “Hey you that threw the bottle. It’s ok, because after the show I’m gonna F your girlfriend”. The crowd erupted.

Chuck crushing Warriors fans in during pre-game 2 right now is fantastic.

It's a lot more entertaining to watch the Mavs do their thing against another team besides the Suns.

Mavs up big on the Warriors in Game 2 here near the end of the 1st half. Luka has 19 and Brunson has 20.

And that was before hitting a ridiculous set shot from 40 feet.

What a great Game 2. Mavs have to be kicking themselves for not capitalizing on that first half shooting performance.

Warriors have been impressive against the Mavs so far. Of course, we were also up 2-0 on them once upon a time. We'll see what happens when the series goes back to Dallas. I kind of hope the Warriors win Game 3 and just humiliate the Mavs, honestly.

Didn’t watch, but how does Kevon Looney have a better game against the Mavs than Ayton ever did? He dropped 21/12 on 14 shots

He has a heart, Ayton needs to go to Oz to look for one.

Trust me, I want to jump on the Ayton/Looney comparisons, but it's not totally fair.

The Mavs can't get away with the same off ball defense they did against the Suns. The Warriors are actually getting to the rim as well. Looney is definitely playing with more effort than Ayton did, but the opportunities to impact the game are also a bit wider for him.

In the end, I believe the expression is, you make your own luck.

Ya that’s a good point…the Mavs figured out Booker was the only on ball threat and that changes things for everyone.

Yeah, it's pretty apparent, right? The worse the Dubs beat the Mavs, the worse the Suns look too.

Watching this series reminds me of how terrible our defense was in the Mavericks series.

It was really bad, we let them get whatever switch they wanted, rotated slowly to open shooter, just hard to watch.

Should've fought through the screens way harder and stopped just giving them Paul or Ayton on Luka. Thats all on Monty and the effort.

I actually want that, because the team deserves to spend the entire offseason regretting their performance the entire series, they let the Mavs get confidence, and with that, your shooting and passing improves, they let them enter in "the zone" as a team.

Yup, no resistance. Inexcusable.

Yeah, I think there was something to them pissing off Doncic after game 2 when Paul and Book were giggling in the presser about how they took advantage of him offensively. They woke up the beast as well as the rest of the Mavs team which put the Suns to shame after that winning 4 out of 5.
