Pregame quotes
I am hoping to see an angered Mavs team from the start of the game.
Show some heart, or your asses are outta here.
We need a win and Utah is 0-5 at home.
Mavs favored by 8.5 Points.
Y'all better win this game. Pretty please, don't mess with the Jazz tank.
This is the only game tonight so I presume more eyes are on us than usual
if we lose to the Jazz we’re not gonna hear the end of it
First Half
Luka needs more help. Two more all-stars ought to do it for sure. I'm sure about it this time.
Dear Lord Luka can’t even get past Filipowski
Flip from Utah was a nice pick. Two good years at duke and good size. I never understood why he as not a mid first round pick. The whole girlfriend this was weird but not important with his skill level.
This is the most important game of the year so far. A losss tonight and they’re screwed. Thats why I’m sure they will pull this out. Just can’t afford to lose a must win against the league’s worst team.
This filipowski is good
Isn't Filipkowski the guy who's been dating a 40-year-old "family friend" since he was like 8?
Second Half
Here comes the tank portion of the game for Utah. They don’t even want to win this game.
Not sure what the issue is, but this team is horrible.
Are the Mavs seriously down 12 to a team actively trying to tank?
Lose by 1 point to the best teams and get our asses handed to us by the worst team in the conference currently tanking....
Just glorious
Jazz making every contested shot is real damn annoying
Man I already knew Kyrie was carrying the team but I didn't realize it was this much
All of these offensive rebounds are telling me everything I need to know. Pathetic.
Clarkson loves playing against us. I want him on the team just so he cant hurt us anymore.
Damn man clarkson is a ****ing bucket
Please Jesus God please let the Mavs win one, we need this so badly
Why is Luka getting clamped by Kyle Flipowski? Gotta because he’s overweight
I cant belive it bro I have seen this game 4 times in a row the last two weeks im going insane
What the **** was that defense holy ****
Lol... Of course. That's how ot would go. I can't wait for Luka to yell at someone else
Luka left him WIDE. ****ING. OPEN. MY GOD.
Hahahaha we’re ****ed. Again
This is a funny team. Sleepwalking in the clutch.
What the hell is luka even looking at there
Luka barking at other people when he's the one that had the defensive lapse is probably why the other players don't really fight hard. Why put in the effort when he's going to try to blame you, but if you win, he'll be given all the credit?
Post game
Credit for fighting back, but it seems they can’t even win a clutch game against the worst team in the Western Conference.
That is one of the worst losses I can remember. They have lost to bad teams a lot over the last couple of years, but I can’t remember one that happened when they needed to win this badly.
Closer to last than 6th in the West. Virtually same record as Pistons, Nets and Blazers. Not exactly great. If Luka plays like this for another month, we are at best going to the play-in. I still don´t see it with Thompson. I can´t point out to any 32+ year old acquistion in the last 5-6 years that worked out.
They really need to work on offensive rebounding. Every time they take a bad three point shot everyone starts running up court, instead of trying to get a rebound. Right now Luka is not shooting well at all, something is not right with him. I really wish they stopped taking so many threes. They need to attack the basket more and try to get to the line for free throws.
I'm not sure what's more annoying. The Mavs losing all those close games or the Cowboys getting completely blown out
Playing Hardy in the clutch instead of Klay is a crime, the coach who drew up that play needs to be locked up in North Korea.
Luka's defense at the end was shocking. Marshall had a good look wish that was Klay with that last shot. It's tough being a Mavs fan right now, this season we have been shocking and we are a much better roster then last season. Kidd needs to fix this before his without a job.
Luka on defense is an embarrassment to watch.. how can someone call him one of the best when he doesn’t defend at all?? Prima dona who thinks the world rotates around him.
Last few seconds of the game and you’ve got two of your three best 3pt shooters on the floor and…..you go with Naji?!……
What a joke. I'm giving up on this team. How did we went from the finals to this. Can't be wasting my time no more watching these games.
Luka cannot get caught ball watching like that man. Inexcusable
I'd rather take belt to ***. Clutch losses haunt my dreams
How can Luka already be washed at 25 years old
That’s it, I’m going Mormon
This is absurd. I can handle losing close games on the road to contenders. But the ****ing Jazz??????
Last 3 taken by a player with 0% from 3s in the season hahahahahahaha
Sickening Luka is coming off a finals run in the worst shape of his life and playing the worst defense of his life.
Don’t worry guys that wasn’t bad defense he was just funneling John Collins towards the basket
There’s no excuse to be that unaware in a crucial moment of the game..it’s just a total lack of focus from him lately.
Luka making a strong case for Secretary of Defense
He's just fat and out of shape. That's literally it.
Fellas I’m straight up not having a good time. 4 loses by a total of 8 points?
Luka’s defense in the 4th might have been the worse thing I’ve seen, no way to justify it at this point. I saw Naji tweak at him a few times, someone needs to hold him accountable golly
No basketball for me on the internet for the next two days The entire possession I’m like what is Luka doing? Back to the ball and not actually guarding anyone. And then he let Collins wide open.
That easy uncontested bucket under the basket made me fall down to my knees in a Walmart parking lot.
Another display of some of the most horrific defense this league has ever seen. Complete with the brain dead not guard your man the entire final possession from Luka
This feels like rock bottom. It's only been 12 games but it does.
These close game losses are gonna bite us in the *** later on. What the actual **** Mavs.
Aw **** man are we ***?
****ing 4 one score losses in a row wtf is happening
That was honestly pathetic to watch. No one on Mavs bench can shoot 3's. Luka is out of condition all the time. Just sad
Quotes from around the league
Horrible defense. Caught them sleeping. How can you not be engaged on defense when there's single digit seconds left in a tied game?
Danny Ainge is fuming
Losing to the Jazz is crazy considering this season they’re handing out wins like candy and were lowkey what revitalized teams like the Nuggets and Bucks lmao
Real talk the Jazz would probably be mid tier in the East.
John Collins was open for 35 minutes there. Nice time management by Clarskon to wait it out.
Dallas gets Klay and instantly go from Finals team to losing to the Jazz.
Warriors lose Klay and instantly go from play-in bums to the #2 seed.
Only one game tonight but at least it was a good one. Mavs are one of the more shocking teams right now
Ainge might have to look into trading Collins, he's bad for the tank
Might have to trade Will Hardy too.
Danny Ainge is licking his fingers as we speak. He's going to charge teams two first round picks for Collins.
Even as a person who still believes in John Collins, how does he manage to outscore and outrebound both of your bigs combined, that's criminal
Luka taking being a lazy defender to another level, you know his teammates are annoyed losing a game they had to claw to get back into just to lose it because that chubby ****** had his head in the clouds and wasn't defending his man
Luka was on the bench in the 3rd and 4th quarter when his team fought to get back into the game lmao nice way to lose
Going into this season, I was expecting the Western Conference to be ruled by a Elite 4 of Mavs, OKC, Wolves, and Nuggets. Been surprising to see the Wolves and Mavs struggle as much as they have, curious to see how either team turns it around.
How can you go from one of the best teams in the clutch to probably the worst in the league wow
Only 12 games into the season and i'm already growing numb to Dallas not finishing close games....
Is John Collins in a contract year?
Generational offensive player and a generational defensive player idk how someone can be this bad on defense.
Imagine putting up stats like that and being -9 against a team that was 2-8 going into the game
And also the Jedi Mind Trick to get Luka to stop paying attention to him at the end
I am hoping to see an angered Mavs team from the start of the game.
