Terrible way to close the half. Doncic seems to get any call when there's a defender within 5 feet from him

Book really does not look comfortable. Think I might bench for the rest of this one.

Dallas really not playing great, but other than Paul we are playing worse.

Crowder's shot really looks bad. It's flat and long.
Crowder is in contention for the Aron Baynes Mirage Performance for 2021. Ive said since the beginning that giving him the Steph green light to shoot outside was a recipe for disaster.

Especially when Crowder is cold. He tends to be streaky. Also he does not have a soft shot so if it's not on target, it's not going in.

I’m hoping this is rust from Book and not more somewhat suck that we’ve seen from him the majority of the season.

Devin needs to take 2-pointers until he gets comfortable.

Ayton on offense is just so frustrating to watch.

If Ayton brings the ball down he is consistently getting it stripped away.

Ayton seems to turn it over every time someone passes him the ball in the paint. There is no good reason for it.

He just has zero confidence or poise in the post on offense.

I am steadily losing faith in Bridges... He just doesn’t play well enough, consistently enough... That rebound by Richardson and put back was all on Bridges, who failed to box him out...

Bridges is who he is. A limited role player who will give you good defense and the occasional good offensive game, but that’s it. Asking him to be the focal point on offense is too much of a chore. I’d rather see him invest his energy on defense. He’s regressed on defense since last season

Let Ayton cleanup after the shot because he can't hang onto the ball.
