    Misleading. Jabari was -24 too but he was left in for that failed fake comeback where he didn't do much besides a fastbreak dunk. He bricked every possible momentum building 3. Almost all wide open too.

    True enough. But Durant carried the team tonight with foul trouble. If you're building a core of 5 lottery picks and they collectively shoot 30% from the floor youre gonna keep getting these games.

    I honestly wonder if this team has a fatigue issue.

    On B2Bs well they look terrible and Dallas just ran them out of the building. They came out playing hard then it looks like they just lost their will as the game went on and only started to fight back late. Would also track with them shooting so poorly, they lost their legs running up and down the court.

    The Mavs have the Rockets number lol.

    Holiday is bad - needs to be released.

    KD doesn’t need to play almost 40 minutes against anyone, especially Dallas.

    Sheppard needs to get his thumb out of his ass and Jabari is what he is.

    I'm all for questioning Ime's rotations and coaching but i think DFS is on a minutes restriction

    Yeah that lineup was when the game got out of hand at the start of the 2nd quarter, which we were up…

    Mavs always get up for the Rockets. I watch a lot of ball and they don't get up like this against most teams. They aren't making the playoffs so this is the next best thing I guess.

    he has a selfish gunner mentality unlike davison who looks to make the right play as a much more willing passer

    I would trade Jabari, Holiday, and Reed for him. When healthy he's a beast. I think I've seen enough with Bari. He will be a great role player but nobody who can change a game.
