Luka struggling on offense. And it doesn’t matter. Who would have thought that possible? Mavs are piranhas on defense. Blocks in one game, steals and forcing TOs in another. It’s got the Clippers talking to themselves – 12:08 AM

Jason Kidd on the amount of lobs: “Just understanding what they were taking away, but I told Kai he probably had a career-high in lobs. He was really in tune with D-Live and Gaf. Just being able to get to the paint and the late pass, the lob was big for us. Our bigs finished.” – 11:26 PM
