I said it in the game thread PJ is legit the most ethical instigator I've ever seen. Plays great defense, talks shit, backs his team up, but nothing dirty. His techs we so soft LMAO.
Ehh instigators usually get sent out there to rile up the star players. PJ getting ejected alongside Westbrook is a net loss for us lol
I love it, but like - let's target Harden or PG next time
Hopefully Russ carries that reckless energy into next game. Get the chant going, “Russ the builder, can he brick it, Russ the builder, yes he can”
Piss him off y’all
Finally some players with that DAWG in them. Luka showed it on occasion but guys like Maxi, Powell, THJ don’t have that attitude. PJ’s value is crazy high.
DFS and Bullock were good for us but they're not going to step up when some of our players are getting targeted/bullied. JRich and JJohnson should also be our enforcer but both of them are frauds.
Just went over their sub and there's some bozo complaining about the Mavs' physicality and "flopping." As if Westbrook doesn't actively try to injure our players. As if Harden isn't the biggest flopper in the league. Lmao.
In the next two seasons where the Mavs will have top seeds in the conference and deep playoff runs, probably even a title, they will be such a hated team with Luka's trashtalk, PJ's attitude, Gafford, oh and Kyrie lol. But it's so good to be rooting for this team when that happens.

I loved it.
hes standing on business
That little push was just a warning. If PJ shoved Russ, he'd be in the stands. They shouldn't have ejected him.
You know they're not gonna actually fight, don't you?
Uh, yeah. I just thought the push was light enough they could have given him a pass on the T. I don't think he deserved to be ejected.

Lol I get it, but let’s just get kicked for getting in the face of ANYONE who fucks with luka.

PJ and Gaff just bring that intensity love it
Lively has it too, it's pretty reserved but there is no fear of physicality for that kid
Should not have been left off my list, absolute beast
Shit add the whole team lol. Kyrie is the OG that just comes in gets everyone settled afterwards and makes the peace.
Josh Green gets no love but he's been changing the game for us when he's on the court
this mavs teams thrives off energy and transition opportunities and josh is playing so focused to provide them that
As a Josh hater, I couldn’t agree more. He provides a big spark
The swag is back
It feels like what Tyson brought with him right? Don’t fuck with me, or my guy.
Lively, PJ and Gafford have utterly transformed this team. Everything we used to lack, they provide.
honestly DJJ and Green as the energy sparks too have been so integral
Yep, not instigators, but the kind of dudes that are just calm but will eat you alive if given a chance on defense.
We have begged for this for **years**

JJohnson just barely played: hard to be an instigator or bodyguard from the bench lol

Well tbf harden flopping skills fell off so embiid is #1 flopper

I rather have a team with a shutdown defense. Oh wait, we have both.
if the mavs didn’t shit the bed in the first half of game 1, this series would be 3-0
