Good defense in spurts for the Mavs. Good to see against a top team. Hopefully they finish the game with the same effort

I'm, at least initially, happy with Gafford being able to step in and play. Mavs rebounding and rim protection should be pretty solid with DLive/Gafford.

He is a beast down low and has a decent jumper. His value is rebounding and rim protecting though like you said. Perfect example is that And 1 he just had. Beast

Entertaining game. Mavs are rolling!!!!

Gafford is grabbing rebounds while surrounded by 4 Thunder players.

All the night games tonight suck. Totally disappointed as have to stay in. Only respectable match is the floundering Pacers against short-handed Knicks.

Suns/Warriors at least has some names. But yea, pretty weak match ups overall.

Through three quarters, a team is on pace for 120 points and a blow out loss. Amazing.

The worst team in the East is handling the best team in the West.

Daniel Gafford is the goat




Dwight Powell:

Gafford with 19/9/0 and PJ Washington with 14/5/1. As a Mavs fan this is a very encouraging turn of events.

Dwight Powell:

I kinda feel bad for Dwight. He was always put into a situation where he was too small when going against the 7 footers and not skilled enough to make up for it but everyone says he's a great team-mate and he is extremely durable, and gives it 100% at all times. He's not a great player but at least you don't have to worry about his effort. Dude is always trying hard.

I swear he was a power forward at first, he needs to get back on that role and only be put at the 5 if there's injuries tbh

Lmao Luka. Let’s go. Thunder getting besmirched in this first quarter. Bout to get 50 dropped on them

The Thunder will never win a Ship with a Canadian as their best player

That lineup was deadly on 2K though

Deepest ever especially if you played HardCan off the bench

 

[MusterX]

Damn, homeboy got hit with an axe.

 

[MusterX]

I guess that was a good first impresion. 19/9 in 17 minutes played.

 

[Sweater of AV]

Always good to see KD come back to where he was carried to a couple chips. Lots of memories for him.
