I cannot reiterate enough how well Michael Porter Jr is playing post All Star break and how healthy he looks flying and bouncing around – 4:21 PM
Of course the Nuggets on St. Patrick’s Day have the staff wearing green quarter zips with “nuggets” written in gold Celtic font.
Coach Malone is like…110% Irish – 4:19 PM
Mavericks shooting foul balls from three (2-of-9) but only down 34-30 after a quarter. Both teams barking at the refs in the first 12 minutes. Must be getting close to playoff time. Whistles not too frequent. – 4:15 PM
Malone getting the T before Jokic can is a good development. He saw it brewing like we all did and decided to step in front and take that one to get the point across. – 4:09 PM
Jokic is 2-of-9 now. Feel like Lively’s doing a great job of toeing the line, getting away with being very handsy. Probably a good T from Malone to try and right that ship. – 4:09 PM
Denver coach Michael Malone not the least bit happy about the rough stuff going on defensively against Nikola Jokic. Picks up a T, as does Reggie Jackson. Mavericks making a comeback. Chance for two more points after the timeout, trailing 30-26. – 4:08 PM
MPJ! It’s not just the pure jumper any more, when he sees a lane to the rack he is driving it with bad intentions, and it’s beautiful. – 4:05 PM
Luka makes these passes look so easy 🔥

Mavs hitting the Nuggets with 2x4s and calling it defense, Nuggets up 4. Denver’s used to this tactic too, so Dallas needs a second plan. – 3:58 PM
Nuggets have scored eight in a row to go up 16-12 and the Mavericks call a timeout. – 3:56 PM
Much better process by Denver trying to force it at the rim. Their size is just a lot for Dallas to handle. – 3:54 PM
Mavericks force the early Nuggets timeout. Up 10-3 less than three minutes deep. Defense has been active so far. – 3:47 PM
Mavericks open the game with a 10-3 spurt thanks to a couple of 3s and a layup off an early Nuggets turnover. – 3:45 PM
Denver’s getting good open threes and just bricking them. That last turnover by Jokic was pretty bad. Details not great to start here. – 3:45 PM
Alright Nuggets fans, it’s time for the 68th game of the season against the Dallas Mavericks. Jokic vs Luka should be dope. Denver needs a win to keep pace with OKC.
Let’s Basketball! – 3:41 PM

The Bucks defeat the Suns 140-129.
The Pelicans are 5th in the West and now sit 2.5 games clear of the Kings and Suns in the standings. The Mavericks sit 3 games back of Nola.
The Pels trail the Clippers by 1.5 games for the 4th seed — but hold that important tiebreaker. – 3:22 PM
Mavs starters: Jones, Washington, Gafford, Irving, Doncic
DEN starters: Porter, Gordon, Jokic, Caldwell-Pope, Murray
2:40 tip @971TheFreak – 3:10 PM
The Nuggets scored 125 points vs the Mavericks early in the year and 130 points soon after.
That was before they added PJ Washington and Daniel Gafford. I don’t expect those additions to change much defensively though. Denver’s gotta keep putting pressure on the rim. – 3:08 PM
Yes, he did make this 😂

Luka Dončić (left hamstring soreness) and Dante Exum (right plantar fascia sprain) will be AVAILABLE today against the Nuggets.
Josh Green (right ankle sprain) will be OUT. – 2:27 PM
The most points #Suns have allowed in a half in franchise history I believe is 90 against Houston Nov. 16, 2017. That was in the first half of a 142-116 loss.
Denver allowed the most points ever allowed in a half with 107. Came against Suns Nov. 10, 1990.
Phoenix won, 173-143. – 2:17 PM
For Mavs vs Nuggets today, Luka Doncic returns from missing Thursday’s game at OKC (L hamstring soreness). Dante Exum is still TBD (R plantar fascia sprain). JKidd says Josh Green is looking at approximately a 2-week absence w/ a right ankle sprain. ABC exclusive broadcast today – 2:10 PM
Luka Doncic is available against Denver today. Dante Exum a game-time decision. Josh Green is out for at least a week or so, per Jason Kidd. – 2:09 PM
Mavs wing Josh Green is expected to be sidelined at least a couple of weeks due to his sprained ankle, Jason Kidd said. – 2:09 PM
Per JKidd: Luka will play vs DEN Josh Green likely out a couple of weeks with his sprained ankle 2:40 Tip @971TheFreak – 1:54 PM
Sunday suited 👔
