Everything Hurts and I’m Dying [Mavs-Clippers Game 3 Reactions]
The Mavs lost Game 3, which sucks. We talked about some adjustments the Clippers made that helped them win this game. We also talked about what went wrong for the Mavericks and what they need to do in Game 4. (Fair warning: If you’re a Kristaps Porzingis fan, it’s probably best to not listen to this episode. It’s not all Kristaps hate, but I do think that was a key to the loss.)

The Clippers Are All Name, No Game
It's been a while! But how can you not talk about the Mavs right now? We took a break from the pod, but we're back to share our totally biased fan reactions to what the Mavericks are doing to the Clippers right now.

We talked about the Mavericks' loss to the Spurs, why they didn't double-team DeMar DeRozan, if they could have gotten a better shot to end the game, and whether or not Kristaps deserves more trust. He's asked for more shots, specifically in the fourth quarter, but has he earned that right? We break down the numbers to see if Kristaps shows up when his team needs him the most.

Mavs-Knicks Post-Game: A gritty win; Josh Richardson was key; Are the Mavs one piece away?; Does KP only show up in meaningless games?
The Dallas Mavericks gutted out a tough win against the Knicks. A lot of things went wrong, but a lot of things went right. We talked about Josh Richardson and Jalen Brunson's key role in the win plus Kristaps' utter trash of a game. Does he only show up in meaningless games? It's a theory we discuss. We then pose the question of whether or not the Mavericks are only one piece away from contending. I know that sounds crazy, but hear us out...
