Powell to the rescue.

Dallas Mavericks (16-9, third in the Western Conference) vs. Denver Nuggets (17-10, fourth in the Western Conference)

Lively has already been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Denver Nuggets while being joined by Kyrie Irving (right heel contusion), Josh Green (right elbow sprain), and Maxi Keber (right small toe dislocation) as inactive players.

There was a play in the 1st game in DEN, after a made basket, Jokic in bounds to Murray or KCP and Gordon was already at the basket ooping the alley from him, no Mav was even in the vicinity...
I'd punt this game and rest Luka, they lost to OKC, they had some bad losses and are looking for a punching bag...

No Lively and no kyrie. This is disaster waiting to happen. Too much size.

All signs of a potential disaster of a game are showing more and more.

Afterwards, Morris’s twin brother Marcus, a forward for the Clippers, tweeted for Jokic to watch his back.

Marcus Morris ,known bully just might start tonight against Jokic .

I think Dallas will play pretty good against the Nuggets . It will come down to how good Gordon plays the super hot Doncic. But Gordon will be the best most athletic defender that Luka will face.

I really hope they opt to give Luka the night off. Jokic might very well put up 50 and 20 tonight with the garbage big man lineup we will trot out.


Not even worth suiting up for or tuning in to

I doubt Luka dodges anyone especially fellow Euro Jokic. He'll play tonight.

About time Luka received player of the week. There was also no way that he's sitting out this game, against his good pal Jokic. Absolutley zero chance.

maybe they are dialing in a loss starting Curry over Exum

Don't understand why Luka is playing sick. He looks like he's given up in the first 3 minutes of the game. And when THJ is bad, he's not just bad, he's worse than GLeague scrubs.

Is this the first Morris game vs Jokic since the incident? Forgot about it till I saw Morris guarding him.

Mavs energy looks way better with OMax in but Kidd prefers scrubs like Curry and Hardy in small lineups that already have low rebounding and defense.

Get some Prosper in there ....Curry and Hardaway have no business guarding Aaron Gordon on the block

So Exum hits a layup and a 3 and Kidd decides "enough of that, go the the bench." I just don't understand Kidds rotation rationale.
