Irony is, Mavs can't even go into full reset because this years draft is weak. So they have no choice but to try and grind it out. But with this offense? THJ or Hardy playing 1v5 with 20 seconds on the shot clock? Wtf....

Yeah,I'm done with this team...Nico's Got his work cut out to do ..honestly,I'd tear this team down...Luka,Kai,Lively,Exum and DJJ(though they probably can't keep him) can stay, everybody else needs to be replaced(coaching staff included)

Its just such a bad look. The easiest thing to do is blame Kidd whos not good but maybe Luka should look for some diapers of his own while he shops for his kids.

Our second best rebounder is THJ... I mean THJ.

Trade for bigs please. Lively is a kid and the others are scrub.

Kyrie is one of my fav guards but he is the main player we need to put on the block if we want to get a solid return.

I’m just a little upset Booker almost dropped 50 on us. But he was due to kill us

30 points deficit plus a Booker 50points game... Is it enough Cuban? Do you want more?

Suns fan here, respectfully. We obvs have our own serious issues to contend with. You were missing Kyrie tonight. I was curious how you guys felt about how things went tonight, bc we've dealt with this kind of disappointing effort a LOT this season.

I'm surprised so many are so critical of Luka. He's not my guy and I almost feel like I need to defend him, haha. He does complain--a lot--but all the superstars do. He could be more focused, and I'm glad in a sense that we're not the only ones who deal with unfocused superstars. Did you see how badly the Suns did getting back on defense early?

Luka needs more help, ofc, especially on defense and the boards, but you know that. If you stay healthy you'll be there in the end.

GG. We'll see ya again soon.

Luka is immature for sure but immagine if you are a top 3/5 player of the league in his prime and you have to play with Green, Williams, DJJ and Lively under coach Kidd... I mean. OMG.

Tonight you faced Booker, Durant and Beal :lol: :lol: :lol:

I can understand some nervousness :-?

You get rid of Kyrie and Luka is gone...I agree he needs to change his attitude,but it seems that under Kidd he's only regressed in that department...it looks like he's losing faith in the coach(which could be the reason he seems more agitated),cause when the team needs him,needs him to calm things down,workout a gameplan,he Just watches and doesn't do anything..also , he's been in the league for 6years and he's surrounded by only two starting caliber Players,Kai and Lively(and they Just Got him this year)...others are all bench or end od bench players..seems like something isn't right in DAL

Kidd lost the team, what will happen soon is inevitable. I hope.

Would you guys want Budenholzer if he was available? A few weeks ago some of us were looking at that name, hah.

Suns fan here.

I think, more than anything, this was a little bit of a redemption game for us since Luka dropped a 50 on us for Christmas. Booker and Doncic have an established rivalry now and it's become must see viewing (most of the time). The league is definitely better for it.

That said, this loss by your squad isn't but a bump in the road. Irving and a ton of your team was out and until something happened that sparked a crazy run for us, the game was definitely yours to win. Unfortunately in your case, it didn't quite turn out that way. Just take this game in stride as I'm sure Doncic and company will be ready for the next meeting and things will probably be a lot closer... or so I hope.
