It's About DAMN Time...

[@carys.stephenson]

This is what I want to see! More O-max minutes, more getting Klay involved, more Spencer facilitating, and Daniel Gafford being Daniel Gafford. Great team basketball tonight! Gaff for DPOY😤😂

[@queque5606]

After the amount of turnovers the Mavs had, I’m glad they won that game. The Mavs have a horrible turnover issue that needs to be addressed quickly!

[@logman7150]

That will be fixed with luka coming back in a week

[@queque5606]

@ I believe so

[@michaelshafer5192]

I totally agree. I played from 6th grade thru college. I've never srrn a team that is so "lazy" or "sloppy" with ball handling and especially passing. That includes Kyrie, Klay PJ and Gafford. So many bad passes from top quality professionals is simply baffling. They would be a great team even without Luka if they could fix this issue.

[@SDesWriter]

It might help when Luka comes back. He is known as a high turnover guy, but you're talking about one guy handling the ball on virtually every possession getting the same number of turnovers as PJ, who's getting maybe 20 touches and averaging 6 less assists per game (and all the other non-point guards are getting turnovers as well). As good as Nico is, he fucked up when Luka went out. He should have brought in a real point guard the next day no matter how bad the defense or the shot. Take care of the ball and get it to people in position to score. Instead we've tried Kyrie/Spencer/Hardy/Williams/Klay committee, which has resulted in a high turnover, stagnant offense for a month.

[@deeburns1227]

@@logman7150 I've seen Luka throw it away just as much.

[@Drhturner]

Omax’s D has been invaluable. He makes things happen. Smart, minimizes mistakes, plays winning ball! He makes it uncomfortable for the defenders….huge boost to Mavs if he continues to get his confidence on offence and becomes a regular rotation player in the playoffs.

[@bobdrooples]

Careful there.

[@eddiescaggs537]

PJ is a beast! He always takes accountability and he is the lightning rod for the Dallas Mavs! I love it. I love it. I love it. All things said this looks like the turning point for our team.🙏

[@Alex-xn8pq]

And he stays down on defense better than almost anybody. It's a key to his success as a defender.

[@williamcarver121]

I'm glad the Mavericks got revenge on the Pelicans after they were robbed when the refs didn't call to goaltended.

[@jlavigne1155]

I noticed OMax too. Played really smart Defense tonight

[@seangifucan7009]

OMax will be our Dennis Rodman. But he needs to work on his footwork. So easy to lose his balance.

[@aldsdwin]

He probably just needs more time to be comfortable on the court. Josh took a long 4 years before he wasn't out-of-control and fumbling on the court.

[@beastscale1892]

😂 He is a SF and that is the reason why he is playing great right now. PJ is more of a Mavs Rodman however.

[@toml6535]

absolutely agree! his steps are to big it doesnt give him enough options.. need a little bit of luka footwork

[@angelrivera-sj6gk]

Jamarion Sharp is still a great option and can compete against bigs of his size, which the mavs don't have. He's bigger than the new guy at 7',1" ! Jamarion can deter a lot of teams that likes to play small ball like the thunder and warriors. And it goes without saying that he can match against porzingis, Zack edy , zubacks and the like.

[@dk6173]

I agree and don't know why the Mavs haven't used him.

[@Aggie4life77]

OMax is surprising me! I’m not going to lie, I was starting to give up on him. He’s taken a major leap in his game! He’s turning into the Wing we’ve been looking for!!

[@beastscale1892]

O-Max is finally being used as a SF. Thats why his play has improved as they tried to force him to be a Big or PF which isn't his game. His game is speed. Still need to trade for a Big wing on this deadline to backup PJ as playing him 40 minutes along with playing in a center role in lineups is not sustainable. Stretch Big or Big Wing are the biggest needs right now for that second unit. O-Max can stay the 3 while Naji play the 4.

[@Thunder_playz]

Daniel gafford just got that lebron james skills when it comes to blocking and getting to the rim

[@ehmtea8756]

I love Omax improvement. He has a great frame, is athletic, candefend, has the right attitude and can dribble, pass and shoot a little bit better this season.

[@hasp__]

Last night's game took years off my life

[@rashaunburrows4458]

I'm happy we got this win but Jason kidd need to use kylor Kelley as a backup center

[@Clutchcmac19]

Not this moment unless sub 500 teams to face

[@aldsdwin]

Unfortunately no garbage minutes today

[@beastscale1892]

He just got here. Doesn't know a lick of the defensive scheme

[@countfloydschillerhorrorth2090]

I love the deep takes!!

[@schn3idy386]

This is the reason why...YOU ... DO ... NOT ... TRADE ... AWAY ... DANIEL ... THE ... LANDLORD... GAFFORD

[@MaryBenion]

The man is a vicious dog on offensive boards

[@MaryBenion]

Wonder if Golden State will give us green for klieber and a 2028 2 ND round

[@darkvader2024]

They way this team turns over possessions it make you realise just how much Luka takes care of the ball for the team. It may seem like he turns it over high, but without him, everyone else turns it over 10 times as much

[@deathitself6985]

Plenty of games with Luka where team turns it over alot aswell. Outside of just mistakes credit the opposing team for playing good defense

[@bfam1163]

Luka is our best rebounder

[@MaryBenion]

Gaff

[@deathitself6985]

Luka gets alot of easy defensive rebounds to get in transition. Kyrie at 6'1 averages more offensive rebounds per game than Luka Thats not to say Luka is bad rebounder or anything it just makes sense for him to grab defensive ones due to his playmaking ability

[@deathitself6985]

Hoops alerts posted that Mavs are in the exact same position record or seed wise as last year? If this is true thats insane when Luka has missed 23-24 games this season and Kyrie has missed 10

[@fire-4-effect]

O-Max is a future star; he just needs a little more experience.

[@ireqsavagevocaldinosaur5795]

FIX YOUR VIDEO DESCRIPTION, THIS WAS NOT AN OVERTIME VICTORY

[@MavericksDigest]

whoops

[@anthonycusano8437]

I love to see the three ball finally go for us but we have to tighten up and fix our turnover problem. They’re just being careless with the ball

[@sooowoopbidness]

💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿

[@HookahDoncic98]

I would rather keep omax than hardy at this point. 3-d pf is more valuable these days than a offense only 2 guard. I like hardy but I still would dangle him in trade discussions if it means getting an elite point of attack defender

[@richardcase9165]

@whats up marcel great win what ya think about our above 6-8 and under 26 forwards not chicken wings size wins lol just stopped by to say hi and hit the like lol Edwards our two way player is better than lay-up line maxi , the wonder scrubs era is over no more thj, Dwight or maxi and now we are winning with our c-group just wait until healthy but not even the kiddiot could go back to lay-up line maxi and super Dwight , could he

[@Knight93King]

[@Driplica]

bro when is luka health update

[@MavericksDigest]

A few videos ago I gave one. They said he’ll be back before all star break, that’s it lol.

[@XunknownBrazyX]

I’d give K.E more minutes over OMAX. He’s shown more in less games.

[@Velveteenvision]

I agree. I can’t wait to see more of Kesslers defense.. so far he’s really impressed me
