Dallas Mavs

In baseball it's different it happens. But in the nba you can't let it happen. It makes you look poorly coached

Even the best of coached teams have days where the other team can't miss and you can't hit the broad side of the barn

What is the coach supposed to do when his team cannot shoot? Yell at them and order them to make the shots instead?

Ok my take is flawed but can't let it happen between 7-10 times for instance

Our perimeter defense has been lousy all season and we are last in the league in defensive rebounding. Seems like we get a big stop and they get the offensive rebound. I would like to see how Felton looks on the defensive end.

I also see the biggest problem is our perimeter D. The lack of size from our 1-2s is the main culprit. I have not been that impressed with Jameer in this offense and he can't guard anybody. I would like us to trade for a 2 guard with size that can D up. Iman Shumpert maybe.

I was furthering your point. The coach really has his hands tied if the team flat out cannot hit the broad side of a barn all night. He can

K wasn't quite sure, thanks for clarifying, I was thinking, "didn't I just say the same thing?"

I think with basketball we're on the same page even moreso than other sports

We better show up in the 4th. This team is out of sync. It's time to go to the big German.

Watching the first 3 quarters of Knicks game and I cannot understand why we keep giving their 3 point shooters space to shoot. Now that I blame Carlisle.

Where the fuck is Monta? What happened to the pick and roll and the 15 ft. jump shots from him? This team is just standing around on both ends. It's really hard to watch.

 

[Justinkm83]

How does Monta let Calderon take him off the dribble that easily?

 

[Justinkm83]

That was ugly, but I'll take it.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Glad Dirk started hitting some shots. If Parsons can ever start hitting from the field it will help to open up some things but I thought he did play good defense. Our guard play was very erratic. Monte got hot for few minutes but otherwise they are all just struggling.

Agree, better to be ugly and win than like the last game where it was just plain ugly.

We may just be. Of the major sports NBA is my least favorite though and as you know it's because all the flopping.

 

[RevSader]

Glad Dallas found away to win that, because you don't want to lose 3 in a row at any point of the season. I am trying not to worry about Parsons yet, because it's still November. If he doesn't feel more consistent and comfortable come March, then I will be worried about him.

I tried to watch the game last night but fell asleep when we were down 17-22. Only game I could watch so far and I was out cold.

Yes, the flopping kills me as well, its my least favorite out of baseball and football as well, i literally only watch the mavericks

Actually football is the only sport I watch games where I don't root for the teams

I do that with college football. And sometimes I do end up rooting for a team by the end, but I have no set allegiance.

14 point lead goes to 6 point lead in 1 minute. The lack of perimeter defense is annoying.
