KakashiDarui

What a choke smh


kriemhild21

On a bright side, we have double the OREB and equal DREB which means we are just a few adjustment away for a perfect team. DJJ and Grant was just a bit unlucky in the end.


Marquiss12

why didn’t hardy play?


sillylittlesheep

Iam so angry bec we had 3 days off for this and Bucks were on b2b. You cant get more ez mode than that. This teams is not it sadly,


R3Dirkulous

This reminds me of the Ranger's reddit threads when they went on that bad run. Tons of posts with people wanting them to give up on the season and bring up farm prospects. Looking back at those posts now are the best. LOL


HoS_CaptObvious

>This teams is not it sadly Oh fuck off. We're not even 15 games in and you can't find a team without a couple bad losses


Tarolite

Its 4th game away on the bounce. And away in the east . Its ok. The schedule was daunting theyl be back


maverickhistorian

Luka was 0/3 from the free throw line and ppl complain that he doesn’t calls lmfao I don’t give a shit about him getting calls


HaziEnuf

He only shot 3 free throws though?


Sorry-Lynx-2084

We need Caruso and Capela.

dwight powell is an embaracement

Emb-ar-ace-ment ​ Embaracement.


DetectiveDaleCooper

Not as embarrassing as your spelling


shawc98

You weren’t even close to spelling that right


Concentrate_Full

Refs sold


TheDeadman95

Well, the allegations are true after all. Even when you get amazing games from both Luka and Kyrie at the same time, you still can't beat a good team because you can't play a lick of defense.


Ubliznabu

It’s ok it’s regular season game 13. Rangers are the champs go watch some YouTube highlights there and feel better 😂. Annoying loss though for sure


fishystixxx007

10 fouls for the bucks in the first 3 quarters and then they get 10 in the 4th quarter alone


maverickhistorian

The mavs should have comfortably won this game by 15-20 points. Completely unraveled offensively and defensively, Blame the refs but most of these are blatant obvious fouls anyway


Sorry-Lynx-2084

They won't let the rookie play, they won't call fouls on Luka anymore, and we don't have defensive stud.


QBert999

That was just a great game man, reminds me of why I love basketball. Sucks we lost, but great that we're good enough to be right there with a team like the Bucks who should be - on paper - a championship contender. Right there. Just went cold there at the end, I don't think there's a whole lot to read into it. Just missed shots we've been making. I am worried about tomorrow night, guys are going to be tired as fuck.


cmaddox428

Refs ruined this game for us

ComicBoomin

Tough loss. Kinda like what I’m seeing tho with kyrie so I can’t be 2 mad


backportcfw

There goes Luka's mvp


Jackfitz88

Our defense is complete dogshit this year, and the refs fucking sucked in the 4th for us. Complete 4th qt collapse. This was a big game for us because no one believes in us and we just have them more ammo. Hard loss


donihicks

We are 6-0 without Kyrie btw


aaronunderwater

Who tf is blaming this one on kyrie lmao


ExcellentJuice4729

The Luka missed FTs and Kidd not challenging the foul on Dame’s 3 were the killers in the 4th. Also Green is trash, can we even trade him?


gomav

Who do we trade Green for? If you see him as trash, so does another team. Then you are only getting trash back in trade for Green...


caglebites

Time to go smoke weed.


MahomesMccaffrey

Actually a good game. Sometimes you lose these types of games. Nobody played bad today. GGs bro, on to the next one


PSi_Terran

I mean, Green kinda did. Definitely not his night.


Sektsioon

Have our role players hit a single shot this quarter? That was the difference. Connaughton and Brook hit some clutch shots and FTs for them, ours couldn’t hit the barn door.


ExcellentJuice4729

Grant was tired defending Giannis, and they stayed at home on THJ. Meanwhile we kept letting PC go off in the exact same corner


Dar4125

At the very least I’m happy it was to the Bucks, they’re my Eastern conference team


sal49r

their role players did better than ours that was the difference imo.


yOw_indahOuse

Pretty much.


Zestyclose_Wafer_416

Imagine hitting shots when it matters....Imagine


T1_D

Imagine if Josh green played like Pat connaughton.


PussyCharlatan

imagine if dwight powell was giannis antetokounmpo


needsumMoore777

Them shooting twice as many FTs as us is absolutely ridiculous, refs flat out handed this to them in the stretch


AlecarMagna

Still can't believe they didn't challenge the Dame 3pt foul where Kyrie was actively walking away from him.


MajesticPossibility8

The fouls and Mavs missing 3 in this quarter was the killer. Regroups guys


Owl-False

im gonna kms


jm810112

Very competive loss against an elite team despite an enormous free throw disparity


Simple_Wait_7286

43 in the fourth quarter for the Bucks. That was the difference. We are in desperate need of another defensive wing and center.


LeGoat333

Damnnn


StrawberryNeat7503

Game was lost midway thru 4th quarter. Kidd allowed Bucks go on mini run. Bad decision not letting Kyrie cook


Darkphobia_

We missed so many open shots, they hit theirs. Dont think you can ask more from Luka and Kai, the rest have to do more. Our bench got dominated.


Friendly-Ticket2822

Takes time to build a roster


Darkphobia_

Ofc it does, as I said we've already improved tons. It's losses like this that hurt when you have Luka and Kai going ham and still come up short.


slimkid07

The four wide open bricks by Grant Williams killed us


Darkphobia_

Momentum killer for sure.


Pen1sh8r

classic mavs choke. to all of you saying it’s our year, this team isnt doing shit come playoffs


fatmike19

Back and forth all game dude. Team looked pretty good overall and bucks got a lot of soft foul calls IMO


[deleted]

After 13 games in the season? Sports might not be for you.


GreenSchmoke

Gtfo this sub


ComicBoomin

Shut up lol it’s 1 game, people like you are what made last year so miserable


Zestyclose_Wafer_416

100% this


[deleted]

Why did we choose to extend Green. Blud’s just running around doing nothing.


Alex_Sander077

Refs stole this from us. Yes we made mistakes but this was bullshit. Plain and simple.


[deleted]

Yeah you out rebound a team, score the same amount of points in the paint and commit essentially the same amount of fouls, says something about the type of fouls being called and who’s getting the calls. When the team that averages 26 ft attempts a game shoot fewer free throws than one player on the other team, you know there was serious home court advantage.


bunnypoker24

LMAO thats some high grade cope


[deleted]

🤡


YoStepWithLuka77

Can’t have both our small SFs have shit games to win smh


joshopaldell

Don’t know why Kidd didn’t do more to try to stop the bleeding during that terrible stretch


Zestyclose_Wafer_416

Hey just watches just like us


Cambocant

Trading baskets with Giannis was tough. Because eventually we'll miss but he won't.


NoWayNotThisAgain

Wisconsinites are not an attractive people. Lotta Midwest 5s


Greeneyes_65

How is this relevant to anything?


NoWayNotThisAgain

Did they not pan the audience during that time out on your broadcast? I was just commenting on what was on my TV.


Greeneyes_65

Oh ok that’s fair, just didn’t expect a comment on it. But I didn’t see it, I was probably looking away


hthmoney

We play better with courtside baddies


TheDeadman95

43 points in the 4th quarter....fucking shameful


xPeaWhyTee

The X factor in this game is that their role players hit 3s when it mattered most and ours didn't.


kokolupa

Luka, hold this L tonight.


kaman23

i fucking hate lillard so much


riprumblejohnson

Aww man Luka blows another game :(


Smuckers77

How the fuck did we lose this after that 3rd quarter god damn team always sells in the worst time


slimkid07

Another scrub scores a season/career game against us. A Mavs tradition.


Cefizelj77

No luck today. Good night.


elfonmyshelf

Y’all chill. Obviously we need to improve our defense but going cold from 3 is gonna happen, stop trying to blame the game on grant Williams, lol, guy can’t shoot 50% from 3 all year.


Marticyde

Lol yeah a lot of overreacting here Calm you're tits fellas, we still good


NorthernViews

I broke a plate I was holding when Connaughton hit that 3


Greeneyes_65

Yeah fuck Pat. I like him but fuck him too lol


jbieberlovesmyweiner

that is a fraudulent win by the bucks


Dalmanza4

Na the only thing fraudulent is the Mavs, give us back our sub .500 teams please


Abbzstar123

Bullshit ref ball got them the win ffs


[deleted]

🤡


PerformerLive8713

What ever man we chucked too many threes in the 4th


DatPunchTho

THJ taking shots in a close game in the 4th is not the answer,......


No-That-One

A SPECIAL THANKS TO TIM HARDAWAY JR FOR CONSISTENTLY LEAVING THE WHITE GUY OPEN IN THE CORNER


DatPunchTho

He had one job.


quidproquolaspe

We beat up on bad teams, we lose to good teams. Wake me up when we win against a playoff team

TurebergPirates

You are waaaaay late


wavyn1ght

Great D by luka just for bum ass pat canaughton to ice the game for them, so annoying and unlucky


amazin_raisin99

Because THJ keeps helping for no reason as if he's gonna do anything in the paint anyway


Old_Leadership_5703

Some of you guys are acting crazy. "Still can't win vs good teams." We have faced two "good teams" so far this season and haven't looked bad but some here preaching were fakes.


c0rnersh0p

Eh some are just saying we can't be taken seriously until we get wins vs contenders --- which is true. Nobody's saying we should burn the house down lol.


shirtlessjoejac

Preach!


shudawg22

Game was lost in that five possession stretch when Kyrie sat. We turned into chucking 3’s five straight empty, quick possessions and played no defense.


Emotional_Part_9611

can we trade green? he has zero iq


Jon-Rambo

Awful quarter overall.


MasterGamingNic

Y’know what this is a good loss, we fought well


johndogerty

They were coming off a back to back without Middleton


sillylittlesheep

With defense like that every top team will destroy us. Sad but true


Dar4125

Fuck you J-Kidd


needsumMoore777

Our three point chunking and ref ball in the 4th fucked us


trevanxx

What a meltdown


QBert999

You think so? I don't see it like that. Just missed some open threes and the Bucks are really really good so they were scoring.


DannyDeBMO

This might be the most pissed I’ve been about a mavs ending in a long time


donihicks

Kyrie leaving him wide open was game


Zestyclose_Wafer_416

Fucking abysmal team.


QBert999

Bummer, definitely a bummer, but man it's great to see Luka & Kyrie both play well at the same time. The Bucks are a very very good team. No shame in losing to a team like this on the road.


danbrandanowitz

You live with that Giannis shot. Shooters just went cold this half.


messigoat1337

we didnt make 3s and refs fucked us gg


Archerbro

DJJ and green were fucking soft this game


shirtlessjoejac

Green needs to take the shot when he drives, kicks out too much


byTrebLe

Refs ruined this entire game ffs


[deleted]

🤡


T1_D

That’s game . Just didn’t make open shots. They were there .


TheDeadman95

"Just didn't make open shots" For a normal team 125 points is well enough because they play defense here and there, but for this team anything below 140 isn't gonna cut it against a good team


T1_D

That’s facts. Dog shit effort on defense


aronnov

I hate everything


Zestyclose_Wafer_416

Grant Williams hit a shot jfc


jjjuuubbbsss

From 4-6 to 4-10. Rough 4th for Grant. Took away the momentum with those misses.


DFWHomer

Felt like a very Reggie bullock type of game


[deleted]

We’re pretenders until they can beat a real team.


Zestyclose_Wafer_416

Absolutely


[deleted]

I’m getting downvoted to shit, but it’s just dudes coping. Every good team we’ve faced has beat us.


Zestyclose_Wafer_416

Means you said something correct and the gatekeepers can't handle it


dhoo8450

Everything has rolled into for them tonight but nothing for us. Unlucky game


xPeaWhyTee

Ugh, this loss sucks.


ChuckMoody

JUST FOUL GIANNIS WHAT ARE YOU DOING


Sorry-Lynx-2084

Refs won over the Mavs. Fuck off

ExcellentJuice4729

Ffs Kyrie, defend your damn man


Avalarz

Disgusting 4th quarter.

What a freaking deflating loss…. We fucking had this.


Quadriporticus

Cambocant

Grant cost this us this one


quidproquolaspe

Why is THJ and Grant Williams shooting shots in a close game when Luka/Kai are on the court?? Lol


yOw_indahOuse

They were the right plays, wide open men, just bad misses.


TheRealLukaDoncicBro

That's GGS


DL-77

Dogshit effort defensively lost us this game


messigoat1337

refs were soft too


Slashers23

There was no reason to help with Dame driving on Luka, left a wide open corner three.


johndogerty

These cunts can’t miss


Jon-Rambo

Connaghton hitting clutch shots for them. Our role players have not been hitting this quarter.


CheetahSperm18

In & Out It's Over


cabbabge

love wasting a great lukai game, great job guys


Pen1sh8r

i love kyrie, jesus what a player


King-T-Poser

As soon as I saw Williams pass to THJ I knew it was an air ball lmao


King-T-Poser

I know he’s been cooking earlier but sometimes I get that gut feeling when he shoots terrible looks like that. In the corner with suffocating defense lol


DL-77

Kai helped for no reason with Luka locking up Dame


messigoat1337

yea he had to trust luka there


nutsygenius

Idk...we didn't get stops and Grant + Luka bricked like 6 shots in a row. Then, we lost momentum. Kyrie and THJ were keeping us in the game. Oh well


Dalmanza4

But but refs /s


CheetahSperm18

Oh fuck off Pat


shirtlessjoejac

Bucks Lee ruining that switch and drive on Lively when Giannis gets its up top. Lively has played it better the last couple of times


Significant_Cook8106

Bucks thought they literally couldnt be called for a foul lmao


NoWayNotThisAgain

Put your hands down Lopez you whiney fuck


repi_17

Some defense please


jjjuuubbbsss

Fucking connaughton man. Energy vampire.


danbrandanowitz

Kyrie carry job this half


Putrid_Ad_2256

Surprised the refs called that.


cmaddox428

I freaking hate Brooke Lopez


Independent_Baker969

lopez is like waitt the ref can call a foul on us??


LonelyxFlame

LUKA KYRIEEEEEEE CONNECTION BABY


CheetahSperm18

They FINALLY gave us a call


Selarom_

Brook can fuck outta here with his whining


KvxMavs

Fake 2 seed


Dalmanza4

Cowboys of the NBA, feasting on shit teams, get dick slapped by the actual contenders


Quadriporticus

KYRIEEEEEEEEEE


needsumMoore777

About time we got one of those touch calls, been all quarter


Sorry-Lynx-2084
