Yato, the only way echo sideways is if we see another close out like last night, where Jason Kidd plays Maxi Kleber at the five while the Mavericks are making a run and both lively and Gafford, who went to the bench cause he had played the whole third and fourth quarter, and what happens to lose. Mind you I counted at least a handful of bad calls. The rest missed were Gafford got thrown into the glass twice and there wasn’t a foul called a few others but yet if you breathed on Oklahoma, the whistle was going wild so to me, there has to be something done with the officiating, because this year has been the worst but a healthy Luka and you give me these two guys and PJ starts figuring it out and Kyrie I take that team because you never know
Marc, as always I really enjoy the stats, numbers. Mavs after Kidd changed the lineup. After numerous ugly games. Seems to have found some chemistry, energy. That brings me to Gafford needing 7 to tie the great Wilt 8 to pass him. I believe Mavs strength of schedule favors the Mavs. If they can continue there run? The 5 spot in the standings definitely possible. Marc Ty for keeping us in the know
Speaking of Gafford's streak, he managed to go 5-5 against the Warriors, and the Dubs play-by-play man, Bob Fitzgerald, noted that Gafford needed just two more makes in a row to tie Wilt's record, set when he was a 76er. I saw he came up short by missing his first shot against the Thunder, but pretty wild to think that Gafford would come so close to that record.
Gafford and Lively have been producing pretty well from the C spot of late. If they can just get all the pieces to play well together consistently, they could be a sleeper in the playoffs. Anytime you have a singular player like Luka, there's that chance.
