The Heat on the second night of a back to back are taking the Mavs all the way.

Fearsome team


Mavs without Luka. Heat also without 2 of their best players...


Oh


Luka is either trying to be Paul Pierce on the drama tip or he's gonna be out for a couple of weeks at least.


KCP did that too

XRays are apparently negative so it looks like just a high sprain. Shouldn't be too much time?

Nah, that ain’t no Paul Pierce wheelchair bathroom break...dude grabbed high on his ankle and even though xrays were negative, I fear the worst. That could be 6 weeks to 3 months.

Yeah...that sucks and I feel for him and the Mavs...kid is becoming a good defender away from having his team in legit contention for a ring.

This is a huge set back for them.

He should pay Adebayo 10k for saving his butt

I think we have a better chance than most because we can line up AD on Giannis

… They're pretty darn intimidating though 0.0

Yeah, I don’t watch Buck games but seeing them with a 18 game winning streak is a amazing feat.

On paper, we match-up really well with them. Front-line of AD, LBJ, McGee/Howard.

Looks like Bulls have started to play Denzel Valentine and he is producing.

I thought he could have been an interesting trade target.

I know the Mavs lost tonight, but they came back from 24 point halftime deficit without Doncic. Imo they are the 3rd best team in the West.

One weakeness ive noticed in the Bucks is there lack of a mobile Center.

For how Great of a spacer Brook and Even Robin Lopez can be. They lack the ability to switch out on screens and cover the perimeter defensively.

I think if the Lakers put AD at the 5 and space the floor like they have been the Bucks will have a-lot of trouble defending us.

If AD can hit his 3's again lakers can win.

Beating the Bucks comes down to limiting turnovers, Getting back in transition and not letting the others beat you.

I think length on defense - for 4 cornering the paint vs Giannis, and then recovering to shooters quickly

I agree.


With Valentine playing more and with Coby White, do you think there's any chance at all that the Bulls would move LaVine?

If the Bulls move Lavine, despite the problems they've had with him, they deserve to explode and wither away in insignificance
