  1. – 133 to Indiana
    – 121 to Cleveland 
    – 125 to Toronto
    – 138 to Boston

    The first real test for this newfound defense, and it immediately crumbled to what we are used to.

  2. So when the Mavs finally get a decent big men rotation, Midd decides to play a washed Kleber at the 5 instead. & when we go on a run & close the gap playing smooth offense & defense he puts a negative player like Tim in

    Mavs ain’t doing shit as long as him & THJ are still in Dallas

  3. Other than Lively, could no one step up today and help Luka offensively? shame

  4. Trading for PJ and Gaff but keeping JKidd as a coach is like buying a Ferrari but filling it with 87 octane. Idk how Nico watches this

  5. If we don’t fire this cancer we are not doing anything doesn’t matter who we got on the team

  6. Five minutes for Gafford tonight and six minutes for him against the Cavs the other night. Kidd is awful

  7. lively amazing game

    “kidd lets put kleber for the rest of the game”

  8. Story continues for every poor performance. Kidd poor coaching, too much THJ, too much Maxi at C. Until those things end nothing will change.

  9. I know the celtics are amazing but Jason Kidd legit lost us this game with rotations and terrible scheming.

  10. The front office needs to do what Detroit did with killian hayes and just get rid of Tim and Kleber if KIDD IS GUNNA PLAU THEM NO MAGGER WHAT

  11. Gafford only 5 minutes and Lively only 23 minutes when he was playing incredible. Fire Jason Kidd

  12. I have never been so angry about Kidd’s rotations. That was just stupid. I don’t get it

  13. Atrocious all around. No excuses. This road trip exposed every single of our issues, especially on the defensive side.

    Kidd refuses to adapt and his obsession with the small ball is killing us. Gafford not getting minutes is criminal.

  14. Boston is stacked. Yes. But Jason Kidds fascination with small ball Maxi and Hardaway Jr is mind boggling. The lineups with no Lively & Gafford is just plain wrong. No two ways about it.

    Just because Boston is so good does not mean this game is an automatic loss for us that’s just BS thinking of the highest degree. And Jason Kidds coaching is doing us no favors against them. We will be forever capped as a team with JKidd at the helm.

    And Hardaway JR has regressed so much there’s no point in forcing him into lineups hoping he can nail 4 3s in a row anymore.
