I definitely feel like they missed Lively tonight, on both ends, but esp. on defense.

[@wandaquinn8446]

Hey, I’m from Atl, I like Kyrie, I believe KAT took Lively out on purpose because they knew that he was the wind beneath the Mavs wings, but I hope Kyrie and Luca put the Wolves out of their misery Thursday night.

[@shazebchoudhry3971]

I hope so too , we needed this Lose to get ready for finals

[@I.am_Groot]

When you say his 'stance' during Covid are you happy that after claiming he wanted to be 'a voice' for whoever he thought made sense at the time but then sat home posting cool tribal pics and launching a line of $150 sweatpants? I am not new to his commentary so this current humble pie Kai doesn't fool me much. He was saying great things in Boston...just before he ducked out and left them hanging. And he was cool in Brooklyn until his trolling began to backfire.

Absolutely right on observations . Dallas will only lose a game because of somethng they have not done. Dallas is better team by far, they just need to be consistant with who they are, dont deviate from your core character, know who are and maintain it and grow. You have the ability to climb every mountain that stands in front of you, know this. The defence was not there as it should be, deffinately missed Liveley's presence on the court, if he was on the court Dallas would have won this game.

Minnesota is a good team. They aren’t Indiana. They’re too good to get swept. But Dallas can make adjustments. And they faired well without lively for the most part.
