I just got home ........ looks like Mazulla is still playing stubborn with his timeouts - to allow a 27-point lead to evaporate to single digits and the last two possessions were Tatum jacking up 28-foot shots. I am beginning to really dislike Mazzula.

If you haven’t watched the game, maybe reserve judgment.

A timeout doesn’t stop a run. The players do.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Surely Mazulla is not so immature that he is sticking with his inane timeout philosophy just to prove that he is right, after all.

Which he is not.

JT FOR MVP! He ain't no one-way Luka! That's a two-way nightmare!

Has nothing to do with the way the game has gone.

Heck of a block by Tatum.  But if it's over the cylinder, isn't it goaltending even if the ball is theoretically on the way up?

To be fair to him, right after he called a timeout in the 3rd was when Dallas started their big run. He could have called another probably but it was already close to three quarter time

He called one late in the third, when the run started. They didn’t get better. Timeouts were obviously not the issue.
