Game #29: Dallas Mavericks 107 - Toronto Raptors 110

[G__Deane]

"Before Lowry started rolling the Mavericks had a 99.7 win probability, so in theory you might see a game like this three times in 1,000."

The trio of Davis, RHJ and Boucher are a great fit on the floor together. Tremendous length, energy, shot blocking and rebounding on the defensive end, floor spacing, solid 3-pt shot, good passing and great put backs/hustle on the offensive glass. Today was eerily reminiscent of the Lakers game earlier in the year. All they need is:

1. Real minutes
2. A playmaker with them (Lowry or Fred)
3. A sense that the team is counting on them as a unit

You add another shooter to that trio (like Matt Thomas), and they'll wreak havoc on opposing benches all year long

Fred + bench was tried and it was a disaster. Pascal or Lowry + bench works.

Bucks are leading IND by 18 late in 3Q. Injury Report: Brogdan dislocated pinky.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand .... Bucks win again

[G__Deane]

Biggest comeback of the decade in the NBA and not a peep on the ESPN NBA home page. The Raptor hate (or fear) is real.

Cuban said no

Would be amazing to have a bench mob again. They owned the starters for so many games two years ago

[Rudy Bargnani]

So Boucher played 1 minute in 1
game in 2017-2018 for golden state. Aside from that would be a rookie/soph and in my view a candidate for rising stars game. He played great tonight.

Edit—Yes he attempted a 3 in that minute you don’t have to look it up lol

[G__Deane]

We scored more in that 4Q than entire 1H...47 vs 42..,Big boost to the bench. RHJ figured something special was gonna happen as he implored the crowd to bring up the noise level after Carlisle called a TO when Raps pulled to 18 down part way thru the 4Q.

A strategic timeout like that usually stalls the momentum for the other team. Nurse had other ideas...

Another shooter is key. Miller when he's gun shy or McCaw don't work that well. Thomas is a great fit.

Davis and RHJ should always play together. Both played extremely good on both ends and were active on the boards.

RR would be yelling for Nurse to be fired

Hell, a few people still seem upset after the greatest comeback in franchise history.

[RandomGuy]

Just play the bench more, if that doesn't guarantee them more playing time then I'm not sure what does.
