    That was way harder then it should have been. Saw lack of boxing out, odd match ups and a team that’s really up and down with their energy and hustle. The positive is Amen still balling and I can see why Tati felt he should start. Hope we keep him over Jabari.

    I think the defensive focus of Ime's plays exhaust players on the offensive end. We had that same issue last year I think

    Just finished watching my DVR of this one. Two thoughts:

    1) How much do I love Josh Okogie. Outstanding defense, especially in the clutch, and always makes the smart play. When he's hitting 3's, it's all gravy.

    2) What an absolute scandal that the Mavs donated Luka and were given Flagg. The kid's already playing like he's been in the league 5 years.

    If DFS can somehow turn into an NBA caliber player and FVV returns, this team might be okay for the playoffs. If not, and no moves are made, they’re probably not good enough. The next week should be really interesting.

    This is basically his training camp/preseason. Give him a break. He’s been looking better.

    Mavs would have a very solid team with their stars back. Unfortunately those injuries limited the potential of this group.

    Spurs plummet is upon us !!!

    Flagg looks like a HOF.. and he's still growing too. He'll finish 6'10" or 11". Great backdoor deal by the league for LA and Dallass.
