All in the first half and most coming from AB who isn’t consistent yet from 3. Our offense is stagnant and we can’t beat this zone defense.

yeah, that's why i commented that we were missing fultz he might have been able to navigate the zone and get guys shots

You mean to tell me that Isaac can't give you 4 or 5 minutes to start the third quarter? That potentially could have increased the lead from 16 to 22 or 24. Instead you rest him and it's a total disaster. Once he didn't come back, I turned to my company here and I said this is going to be a Dallas victory by 10 plus points and I was right.

Yeah your prediction looks spot on at this point …unless we mount a comeback

Yes, terrible player…

Play J.I 5mins here surely 

[MAGICTIME22 20]

In my own humble opinion, and I am sure that most of you would agree, if Isaac hadn't played at all tonight this would have been a Mavericks blow out win right from the beginning.

yeah to cole and ingles    i would try to package cole and chuma    for all the times cole helps there are 4 times he is forcing and turning over

he was good in his minutes in the first half.    he plays better when he is not trying to be "the man"

when we get behind, it seems he wants to put the team on his back, but usually makes things worse

All of what you said about Cole is true.

[MAGICTIME22 20]

JI is a plus 15 tonight. Nobody else is even close. Ingles is a minus 17.

He definitely would have been able to get guys better looks and play better defense. What Cole Anthony’s doing out there is criminal.

Cole has 7 points and 7 assists in 17 minutes of action. Not too bad. The problem has been the horrible defense in the second half. Due in large part to the absence of JI.

yeah not bad, but,   as i said, for every good thing he does there are usually more bad.   he drives out of control, i guess hoping to get the call.
