The Dallas Mavericks now rank 25th in defense with a 118.4 DRTG. That number is almost two full points worse than their already-subpar total from last year(116.7.) (alien.top)

They should still get plenty of wins with their offensive firepower but come playoff time it's hard not to see them getting absolutely eaten alive on the other end of the floor

You just need to score more baskets than that, easy

It starts with Kidd

He said the Mavs are comfortable with giving up 120 points. Thats a terrible mindset

Kidd is the goat of interviews and quotable material. 'We gon' turn this ship 360 degrees around' or smthn lmao

100% lol what kind of shit message does that send?

[–] Cudi_buddy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

We definitely scored at will. Dallas was on the B2B tbf. But I thought this was well known they would be a glass cannon. High offense but bad defense

[–] DemonicDimples@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They honestly remind me of the Kings last year, great dynamic offense but no chance of playing D lol

When dallas started hot cs bad teams in clutch wins : with Luka grant n thj shooting outkier hot people got too reactionary of their improvement. Their biggest addition is a rookie big n grant : both guys are over performing but I thought Dallas just like gsw will cool off. Both teams are probably better then I thought but they’re closer to a low playoff /play in team imo. Luka also can barely or doesn’t shoot near rim
