Too much Dante Exum. Play a guy who can score.

Glue guys are great and all but they are not worth much when nobody on the floor (other than AD) can get a bucket. The whole offense looks shook right now. They need some scorers out there to settle things down. Get them a few buckets and stop the panic.

Oh what a terrible shot by AD. A step back 3?? When your team's offense is dying out there. You are dropping off by 20pts. Morale is low.

Get something easy, please!

PJ and Klay should be getting looks.

Caleb Martin irritates me. Goes off against us often but looks clueless against every other opponent  >:( >:( >:(

They need to take Martin off and bring on Hardy.

Go with B Williams and J Hardy in the backcourt. Then one wing and their double big. 2 creative guards.

Right now you got 1 creative guard in B Williams, 2 low volume wings (M Christie, C Martin), 2 bigs (PJ & Gafford). Not good enough.

Haha, what a play by Brandon Williams. I thought he had taken it too far and wouldn't get his shot off. Pretty end of quarter coast to coast play.

With this Dallas team, I think you have got to have a quick hook with those defensive lineups. They are fine when guys like Klay and PJ Washington are getting you some buckets and you are hitting some open 3s.

But when that is not happening, you have to go away quickly from those lineups and turn it over to your offensive minded bench players.

A few weeks ago they were getting great production from Brandon Williams and J Hardy but they have gotten squeezed out by the return of their big men. Their offensive contributions were valuable and a great complement / contrast to their largely defensive orientated group outside of them.

Where is the offense? If Klay is having a quiet night as he is, where is the offense outside of AD?
