[zman1527]

How stupid are we for assuming that the Mavs would want Luka to come back in this series? Obviously they should just rest him and save him for the second round.

And now Brunson too.

I truly wonder what this game and series would be like if we attempted to guard every Mavs player with our matching number of players on the floor.

Revolutionary concept.

Did Brunson do something dirty to Royce in the 1st quarter? Cause Royce was definitely targeting Brunson with borderline dirty stuff on about 4 different plays when Royce came back in in the 2nd quarter. Maybe Quin designated him as the enforcer.

No Royce is just a bitch. Worst full time starter in NBA history.

Hopefully we make a few adjustments. I also can't see them shooting that well in the second half. A good amount of those shots were lightly contested but by guys they knew the could shoot over. We really need a second half comeback. We have to win both home games.

We literally have the dumbest defense in the playoffs. We should have fixed this after what happened last year. Drive to the paint you either get a wide open layup or Rudy leaves his man to help and get a wide open three. Every single time.

Go to a ****ing zone or switch everything.

We went to zone G1 and G2. We switched a lot in this game, they just kept attacking Mitchell and Bogey. It just doesn't work when you have **** defenders. Aside from Green 3s, there is nothing you can blame on scheme this time.

We really gave up on the X-out, which is one of the most basic and most fundamental rotations because it was giving our players a hard time. There is no fixing this.

The players will get the blame, and they deserve plenty, but it obscures how genesis and catalysts of all of this is Quin Snyder. This is malpractice.

On the brightside, the masses have now joined my longtime dislike for Quin, even those that seemed to hold out that thought they'd win tonight.

He is the "leader"

Nah. Nobody is a leader. Thats our problem. I wish Don would assert himself, but what is he supposed to do. We have the dumbest system I might have ever seen.

Play Paschall at C and see what happens. They ain't posting us up. Run em. Anything but this wasted big ********.

Guess you never saw Adam Keefe or David Benoit.

Somebody point to one game, just one, all season where we competed for all 48.

Dude. Uncontested shots will have a higher percentage of going in. Jazz suck a$$ at perimeter defense. Nothing will change until we blow it up or face a team with a traditional center.

Mavs have made 10 more 3 point shots. That is a tough hole to dig out of. I really feel for the pine riders right now as the rotation guys are so so awful. How can Quin face them with a straight face when the much better players stink this bad?
