    Says the person who didn’t even know the reason Silas was calling a timeout.

    Did you not watch the game?

    KPj is one thing, you already know he is going to do his sh*t. But silas thinking the most important thing to fix in the line-up is the center, rather than fixing the perimeter defense is crazy. players getting lost on the perimeter for open 3s all the time. It costs us soo much. Nothing comparable to individual mistakes at times.

    This game had some flashes of ball movement and something that looks like basketball. On that end it was better. Green-Sengun-Bari-KJ having better connection. Replacing inefficient iso plays(or one man attacks with no initial advantage) with a combination play from these players looks much better.

    I had a great time at TC tonight…game was entertaining, and they competed…as bad as this team is, I can’t ask for much more than that

    Jabari

    [​IMG]

    LOVED how he played tonight…an efficient double double…24 points might be his career high as of now if I’m not mistaken

    happy to see Tyty get some relevant minutes…he needs to be made the backup PG ahead of Chips ASAP

    as for Luka…gawd damn

    he put on a show and made it look very easy…he was so much better than anyone else on the court it wasn’t fair

    I was shocked THJr didn’t look like a perennial All-Star

    merry Christmas to all my fellow CF members

    I feel like he could literally **** himself and the staff still wouldn’t make a change

    He was hitting contested shots too but even still. Get him open.

    The Mavs were literally doubling Jalen and sometimes even doubling Sengun in the post. It should have been easy to get him open shots.

    This is how we imagined him being used, that Green and Sengun would create open shots for him to thrive yet they are way too content to sit him in the corner even when its clear some nights he's on.

    If Sengun didn’t play godly during 3rd quarter… the deficit would be 15-20 for Dallas.

    So the top 2 or 3 teams in the West have 0.600 records.

    Look Sengun hater. Silas took out Sengun 40 seconds left, put Garuba in (who is undersized), gave offensive rebound, take 3, and lost the game. Watch the game with glasses u hater.

    KPJ is much better as a shooting guard when a real point like TyTy is on the floor with him. We need a PG and let KPJ end up being 6th man of the year.

    KPJ has the low basketball IQ.

    Rockets front office agree to play him as our starting PG is ****ing stupid.

    Then we took him out couldn't secure a rebound and Doncic still hits a three. The team just sucks on defense man. He shouldn't be on Bertans anyways..

    He not perfect but he makes some plays. He stripped Luka on that drive only for KPJ to mess up a 4 on 1 fast break... unreal. Our defense in the fourth wasn't why we lost. Jalen was pretty awful forcing up shots and passes to start.

    Keep sucking on that +12 …

    Jabari was only a + 4 and clearly played better tonight

    KMJ was a +13

    stick that + - up your @$$$ and watch the damn games
