Man I love Dereck Lively. Such a well spoken, stand up kid. Not to mention he’s developing into an incredible player. Couldn’t be happier to have him on our team.
@@DrUmarJohnson1 Sure. But I’d argue he wasn’t as well spoken as Lively is at 20 years old. Although that could be attributed to the language barrier for Luka.
Clearly super intelligent and polite kid. Has such a great head on his shoulders and always brings energy onto the court. Absolute delight to have on the Mavs and can't wait to see him evolve. Love him!
Spence is loved here in Dallas. He’s slowly dropping his guard again. Reminds me of Kyrie realizing the organization and city has his back and has no interest in trashing our own like they do in most East Coast media markets.
@@Hamarin123456789 I’m talking his whole career here. Luka too since you brought him into it lol. Get off the latest narrative about what you think the average Mavs fan felt about those two to start the year kiddo.
I won’t lie, I was anxious and unsure about Spencer because of his comments about Dallas previously. But I am pleasantly surprised and proud of his hard work
@@DreamcastFarm I wasn't just because he actually came after saying what he said. Takes some balls/confidence to go back to a city you just called Mamma
I can’t speak to how the rest of the Mavs fans felt, but I was incredibly happy when I found out we were getting Spencer Dinwiddie back. I truly believe he’s his best in a Mavs uniform, and he’s someone I want this team to really succeed with. Love to see him start to thrive again. I fuckin love this Mavs team.
Those doubter/haters of Spence have not been Mavs fans for long enough. Spence was VISIBLY feeling out, observing, and deferring during the start of the season just as he did when he first came three seasons ago. It was only after Brunson's sat for a prolonged injury that Spence balled like a border-line all-star, notably as I can remember, 2 back-to-back game winners (BOS, NET) and a 4th Q 20-point comeback against GSW he spearheaded. Because of this, Brunson at the time has become a replaceable expiring contract IMO until Brunson had the sensational R1 series against UTH. This season, good thing J-Kidd kept giving Spence the opportunity and the green light to carry the offense and play crucial 4th quarters. Spencer kept his end of the bargain by being ready, confident, and staying on his lane.
Everyone’s underrating the mavs saying they have defense problems, yeah Klay isn’t the best on offense right know but he just puts his head down and played defenses to prove the haters wrong #gomavs
Klay not shooting well sucks sicne thats what he's brought here for. But i can see him making passes and not making bad shots like last year and also playing defence. He just needs to gain his confidence again and shooting will come naturally.
What a great question asked by the woman reporter to Spencer! And an excellent response. Sometimes one has to take the sword EVEN when they know they did everything right. The wheel always turns favor and will give just rewards in due time.❤
I absolutely love this team. These are the guys we’ve been asking to have around #Luka since his third year. #Lively has quickly become one of my favorite players in the NBA and I ordered a jersey two days ago. The next jersey I’m grabbing is a #PJ jersey because homie has turned into a hometown hero and a menace for other teams.
I apologize Coach Kidd! Today you did the right thing sitting down klay and putting in hot Dinwidie. Way to coach. It’s all about who is hot. Thank you coach, let’s go Mavs.
Klay looked dejected when he was pulled out in the 4th. But hey, he had way more than plenty of opportunities at the start of the season over the other newbies Spence, Naji, and Grimes.
@@aldsdwin they’re all great Mavs players. Every player has good and bad nights. We all saw Luka start of the season. Klay will have his nights too, great team let’s go Mavs!
I don't think they're even close to firing on all Cylinders yet which is fantastic considering the position we're in. Hopefully we catch our stride in the back half of the season and into the playoffs.
@@ARWINMACHADO His shots aren't falling, but his playmaking, passing, and decision making while handling the ball were soo good. He managed to get the right read like every time, klay with his championship experience baby. If luka just manaaged to cut during that would've made it cleaner but luka was already amazing.
@@devonsolomon4153what was the excuse before he got injured? He has been missing tons of shots all season except for a couple games. He continues to get a pass and special treatment from fans. When Dinwiddie had a single bad game everyone called for him to be traded.
Na y’all were hating !! Yall talking out of emotion!! I see the faces acting like yall wasn’t bashing Luka and Spencer!! Mavs fans can be annoying fr love yall tho
It does annoy me how the same ones that were shitting on Luka early in the seasons, are the same ones eating that shit up when he gets going, which so far he always has. You’d think they would learn to trust the man at this point. Love Luka, love this Mavs team. Genuinely all of them.
As long as you keep giving the other players the amount of grace you’re giving Klay. Everyone was calling for Dinwiddie to be traded when he had a single bad game. Klay has had many and he’s treated differently than all the new players on the team.
@Velveteenvision Spencer knows Kidds scheme already. He played with the Mavs before. Klay doesn't. He is still learning and at the start had to deal with an injured Luka not in game shape. Luka is now healthy and now its Klay trying to nurse an injury and get in game shape. It's going to take time. That's the difference on why Klay and Spencer was treated differently as Spence had no excuse to look that bad early on. Also let's not kid ourselves. Klay's defense right now is better than Spencer despite being limited.
I think this should be the rotation: • Luka > Spencer • Kyrie > Quentin > Jazian • Naji > Klay > Hardy • PJ > Maxi > Dwight • Dereck > Daniel I really feel like Jazian Gortman can be better than Hardy. He needs more minutes to prove that.
Naji doesn't space the floor and we shouldn't try to force him into said role so he can stay comfortable. Klay is getting paid to do that and he's helped space the floor even without big numbers as defenders are staying posted on him. I see Grimes helping with that Klay role(to help keep Klay fresh) than Naji as he is mostly Luka and sometimes PJ'S backup. Our main issue now is getting a real backup for PJ to keep him fresh. Him playing 35+ minutes each night isn't sustainable and he makes this defensive scheme works. Naji can't do what PJ does on Defense.
❗️Well done boys❗️, they pulled out the game, what a beauty it started at the end! Wow, I got so much adrenaline from you that it’s enough for the whole day! Thanks Dallas🤝...
Spence is pretty much playing for free haha. Love the guy. I wish we could get back DFS and Seth Curry. We did Curry so wrong. And he generally loved the Mavs.
We have to play against the opposing team AND the refs usually. Luka for once got similar calls to the other superstars, relative to how much he gets hacked, and thus the victory.
He was traded back to the Nets for Kyrie, then the Nets trashed him (Jacque Vaughn’s an ass), eventually trading him to the Raptors, then got waived (resulting in him losing his Bird rights), then he was picked up by the Lakers (Darvin Hamm played him very little… mostly off the ball). Hamm’s an idiot, by the way. Reaves was intimidated by Dinwiddie and wouldn’t pass the ball… it was a bad situation. Now he’s back with the Mavs and can play well.
He's playing solid defense. And even not shooting a lot or making shots, he's putting the attention on defense so Ky and Luka have more room to operate
@@rogereb09how long will he be able to play defense at 35 yrs old with bad knees and a foot injury that will likely need to be managed for a while. Plantar fasciitis lingers. Defending at the level he has been will just continue to wear him down. Grimes can play better defense and make his 3s.
They don't watch most of the games anyway and just rely on the notes their staff give them. I'd rather hear from someone who does like Jason Timpf and Nick Wright.
basketball is a sport but nba is a business the mavericks fans full stadiums to watch the mavericks play and you will always get favoritism from the officials in a game
Man I love Dereck Lively. Such a well spoken, stand up kid. Not to mention he’s developing into an incredible player. Couldn’t be happier to have him on our team.
It’s crazy how important this 20 year old dude is. I don’t even wanna imagine where the team would be without him
Luka is "Well spoken" as well
@@DrUmarJohnson1 Sure. But I’d argue he wasn’t as well spoken as Lively is at 20 years old. Although that could be attributed to the language barrier for Luka.

If we can back to the past Lively should be pick maybe second or third of his draft year.
Lively’s mum educated him so well.❤

Man what kinda bs is this ya'll were trashing Luka and Dinwiddie a week ago and now you wanna act like you have their back

Cmon man!!
We are fortunate here in Dallas to have such a great group of young men on this team. The chemistry is starting to fell. Go Mavs!

Loved what Spence had to say, glad hes back
One of the best post game pressers I’ve ever heard. He’s such a natural speaker.

It was like Tony Stark telling Loki about the Avengers.😅

The difference between Dinwiddie and Hardy is IQ.
And defense
There’s a huge gap there
@@eugene5656both of them are pretty mid defenders, spence is a better ball handler, passer and shot creator.
And and and
And the fluent game

J Kidd said before the game, Klay was going to play 20 minutes and that's what he played...20 minutes exactly.
@@aldsdwinHe'll just need to play better. I think he'll continue to start but Kidd will bench him if he's not productive.
This mavs team is firing on all cylinders. Just gotta get klay going. Lively played like a dawg tonight 💪🏽
i think he is getting conscious if he miss and thinking too much. he will be okay for sure though
Klay just came back from injury, he will be fine.

Dinwiddie being back is almost like dsf coming back (foreshadowing hopefully)
Future All star and DPOY Lively
I thought im dead but when i see Klay seat on the bench i feel so alive 😅 sorry klay but you need rest more and comeback stronger..💪
Same hahaha

A lot of the online Mavs fan base is super reactionary and overreacts to every little thing, they never see the big picture.
I apologize for anything negative I’ve said about you Spencer
Dinwiddie will always be a fan favorite.
Spencer clearly aiming to be a coach in the future…
I see you pushing to be better on defense and quicker on offense Luka!!
nailed it Spence!!!
Daniel Gafford needs more recognition!
Let's Go Mavs!
Klay will find his rhythm

• PJ > Maxi > Dwight
• Dereck > Daniel
I really feel like Jazian Gortman can be better than Hardy. He needs more minutes to prove that.

Jaz on a two way. Limited in # of games he can be active….

The fans didn't cheer for klay while he was at the free throw line during the 4th quarter, i know he heard how quiet it was when he made it 😂
the subtitles on the second spanish reporter.......Chris tucker?? Luka talking about potatoes??
Lively has that generic nba2k voice lol
I’m a little confused.. what are they referring to when they say bad things happened to Spencer?
He was traded back to the Nets for Kyrie, then the Nets trashed him (Jacque Vaughn’s an ass), eventually trading him to the Raptors, then got waived (resulting in him losing his Bird rights), then he was picked up by the Lakers (Darvin Hamm played him very little… mostly off the ball).

I honestly don't know what Thompson is doing in the team.
He's playing solid defense. And even not shooting a lot or making shots, he's putting the attention on defense so Ky and Luka have more room to operate

let them sleep like they did last year

Go Mavs! p.s. what about Klay he's not an asset
We as the fans see the replay wayyy easier and faster than the bench.... I'll admit the mavs twitter should back off a bit ^^

Dinwoddy over Klay ... Klay does not 🚫 fit in good with Shooting under 40%
The nba cheating luka out of steals. How was that last steal not counted? The game b4 that luka was cheated out of a couple steals too
All for One & One for All. Bravo.
Great game, except TO & FT%.
