Would you guys mind up summing up how we are winning so big for someone who's not watching?

It's been a slow half court game and the defense has been very good. Luka and Kyrie have hit some really tough shots but they haven't gotten much else from the supporting cast. Gobert is outplaying their centers and Donte has hit a few shots. Those are the standouts for me. Luka also had a non contact leg injury.

Sure. Lukas out for the game, but we were way up went he went down. Great ball movement and ball protecting (16 assists and 5 tos), smart play by both Ant and Ju (yep, I said it) and scrambling defense. Plus Rudy is catching the ball and scoring. We can’t play any better.

Randle playing very well in front of his mama. Triple double in play.

Bingo. Our three best players are all actually playing well and sharing the ball. Hot hands day for Rudy.

We should mention Divo shooting well too.

An actual functioning offense with passes from a good shot to a great shot. More movement and Ant using the Mavs double teams to create for others. Last year's level of defense on rotations and hustle.

And Ant back to bad habits.

D’, I agree. But in all fairness, he saw a lot of single coverage the last five minutes…doesn’t get that very often. I think he thinks he can beat anyone one on one, and he may be right.
