Interested to see if Ayton plays after being out with Knee Soreness.

I hope Luka takes off that band, it's unwatchable.

Any news about injury report?

Luka wearing band is the lucky charm. Do it please.

Like the Mavs, in their Bucks loss they were screwed by officiating, they are a dangerous team, but I hope the not eff around mentality continues.

Busy night in here... massive lead early then allowed that 11-0 run to make it a game again. I really feel like some questionable calls fueled that.

Great... DP injuring Kyrie...

Ridiculous flop by Camara against Luka and Kidd as usual napping instead of challenging...

Hopefully Kurie injury isn't season ending, it looked pretty bad.

Decent first half mavs let off the gas and blazers got back into the game... Exum playing great again!

our defense and rebounding is bad as usual, constantly give the chance for POR to stay close

Hopefully this injury to Kyrie isn't serious. I've seen completely broken legs with that sort of action, a player falling on top of another players leg like that. Finger crossed he'll be okay.

I hope the team use this to galvanize themselves to a win.

Where's the guy who says Exum should only play 10 minutes as a 7/8 th guy off the bench.
Exum has EARNED his playing time . Exum not only scored but continues to get assists and for good measure fights for rebounds . Can we now say he is a legit 3rd ballhandler who doesnt turn the ball over while speeding up the pace for the Mavs.

A poor performance by the Mavs but I'll take the win, especialy since Kyrie got hurt(which sucks,it didn't Look good) :banghead:

...Dante(apart from missing some layups),DJJ(although the 3 wasn't falling)and Timmy are the only ones that looked good this game..they played their role,made some mistakes,but alltogether did their job...Luka ,despite the stats,with an average game...stats Look good but he forced the 3 Point shoot way too much, didn't Pass a couple of Times when he should have...Lively struggled,but played good in the 4th...Omax is totaly out of depth,he looks lost...Powell should not Play in front of Holmes :banghead:

...Hardy not getting any minutes is concerning

The Ky injury didn’t look good, but he still did his foot shuffle at the FT line and walked off with not much of a limp. I’m not a doctor, but can’t imagine it’s thatttt bad.

Powell seemed a little out of control there, but he was just trying to volley the ball like he normally does. He took a nasty fall himself.

Marginally out of control, Kyrie in the wrong place at the wrong time, and it being Dwight Powell has caused a complete melt down on Mavs twitter.

I can understand your personal battle but you can't change my posts, if Exum makes shoots then he will play a lot minutes otherwise if he doesn't make shoots he still is a 15minutes role players. That's simple.

He played great lately but Jazz and Blazers were lottery team without rim protectors Exum needs to prove that he can scores against good teams.

Anyway Powell makes another huge step ahead in his career, he is still unplayble but now he injuries second best player of the team. Wow. Great job scrub.

We deserved it, i hope that those who were happy by his resign finally had understand... He is not only useless but also harmful :banghead:

Our Cs recap... 48 minutes 16points 12 rebounds 10fouls and an injuried player against a lottery team with starting C and back-up C out.

Holmes DNP.
Beibau not so happy. Again.

From 41Dirk41 is all. Good night.

An ugly win is a win, and I will take it, but POR is one of the worst team in the league, and playing without 2 starters in Grant and Ayton as well as a top 6-men in Brogdon. There is really nothing to celebrate.

Hope Kyrie is well, Mavs can overcome him missing the Grizzlies, but after that it becomes tough.
Glad they took care business.
