It’s actually Bane who I am scared of. Seems like he goes off every time they play the Mavs. I hope that Green or DJJ will stop him this time.

Don't forget David "Big Body" Roddy who somehow becomes a flamethrower from 3 whenever he plays us. :lol:

Without the 2 probably best defender of the team... Great defenders help of course but defense is a team working.

If Denver can play good defense with Murray, MPJ and Jokic everybody can do it.

Yep. Wouldnt surprise me if JJJ sits tonight as well, coming off of this Ja news. Would really help alleviate the Lively absence if thats the case

Kinda bless in disguise for Memphis. This was a lost season for them anyway. Their core with Ja-JJJ never looked legit too me to be a contender. Now they'll get a good trade asset.

Luka always beat Memphis even at their best day. It should be easy game now. Hope they'll make Kyrie score 40 or sth to prop up his trade value. Easy game with Luka.

Exum replacing Kyrie really helped the team.

Since Kyrie is back Mavs had a terrible Utah game, 2x very easy Blazers games, and Wolves game.

Let's see how it goes, especially after the Memphis game. We'll need Lively back soon.

Blazers beat the Nets after losing 2 to the Mavs, they are a bad team, especially in frontcourt, but they have good scorers in the backcourt.
The UTA game was another drunken game IMO, right after new year's eve...
I think Exum is the best bench guard the Mavs have, and it'll eat into Green/THJ minutes, but only one of them should stay past the deadline.

Exum is really nice to have for team defense. On offense he is also more like Brunson to play with composure. Controlling the tempo, making right passes when Luka give up the ball for a few possessions. Kyrie usually go for 1-on-1. When his shots going in its nice but when he cant make tough shots, it often ends up in transition plays. So Exum is a really nice addition to fill up the backup PG hole of this roster. I am not saying Exum is as good as Brunson but they have a similar quality for controlling the game.

One advantage of Mavs team with Luka is being able to play at lower pace. Half court basketball is still a good one for Mavs due to Luka.

Nets dont have creators. Their halfcourt offense is ****. They need higher pace to be able to score. I dont know Nets in general seems like a team with no identity. Posters here blames Kidd for everything but I think defensively he is doing a decent/good job for the available frontcourt.

This is looking bad, no one came back after the turnover, good timeout by Kidd, they need to wake up.
