WTF? That looked more like a move by a left tackle than a guard. I'm remembering one of the many reasons why I hate the Mavs - or any team coached by Rick Carlisle.
Tag could probably beat him in a footrace. Honestly Dirk's running style reminds of that time when we randomly had Bill Wennington on our team and played him in garbage time once.
Just a reminder. This is the game thread. Not an "I LOVE DONCIC" thread or a "I HATE DONCIC" thread. His performance during the game is perfectly okay for discussion. Taking the discussion into the realm of how we should have picked him, how he's better than Bagley, etc. need to go in one of the threads in the NBA forum.
Very nice first half. Yes, Luka does a lot but the Kings can certainly force him into making errors because it looks like the Mavs already depend upon him to do just about everything.
Bjelica defensively had a lot to do with that close to the quarter. He had a few huge defensive plays at the rim. He’s actually a pretty good interior defensive player though understandably has trouble on switches. Dude would’ve been an all star 15 years ago.
WCS, we just can’t have porous interior defense and continually giving up boards going forward. Between now and the end of this year it has to disappear
Kings have to be happy where they are at right now......Bogi finished the half with only 2 fouls is huge. Lots of guys not really playing that well on our side

If he had come into the league a little earlier for a team that wasn't coached by a guy notorious for breaking players, there's a chance he could have been here.

Kings in general aren’t assisting well in this one because nobody is making their open set up shots. Willie is having one of his no catch days as well. Kings mainly scored on one on one plays. Kings would be destroying them if they had shot the ball with any decency from deep.
Glad to hear it. I'm not watching the game but I see he's getting a bit of decent press lately. Hope he's picking it up because Joerger seems intent on playing him.
