Kidd on Luka-Kyrie together for the 1st time since March 8: “The last couple days have been good for the two of them to work on the floor. . .There’s no better time to get those two back. We understand the position we’re in. We got to have (them) healthy if we want to make a run” – 7:37 PM

Jason Kidd on his rotation: “Being able to have Luka and Kai out there, we have to have some consistency with their availability.” Said depth still won’t be great with Hardaway out, but “Hardy is playing great. Josh is playing great, Josh is going to come off the bench tonight.” – 7:30 PM

Luka is going to cost the Mavs a very important game, a la Draymond, unless he learns to curb his boorishness. He got fined 35G today for an inappropriate gesture (rubbing his fingers together, a sign of someone on the take) directed at a ref. The refs are mad and will get even. – 3:58 PM

Since Joe Dumars became @NBA Dean of Discipline this year, no one has been fined more than $35K. Luka just got the Dumars max for making the money sign vs GS – 2:41 PM

Players Who make it easy for me to root against: Draymond, Randle, Luka, Brooks, Harden, KP, Morris twins Poole & again Dray. His antics are such a turnoff, I’m tempted to turn off Curry.
Players I root 4: Curry, Brunson, Sabonis, Joker, Ja, Jrue, Horford, Klay, Kawhi, Mikal – 10:10 PM

More on this storyline
Marc Stein: It will be the first time Dallas has both Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic available to play together in 16 days. More NBA from me: marcstein.Substack.com -via Twitter @TheSteinLine / March 24, 2023
Prior to the 2021-22 season, he was eligible for a four-year, $55.5 million extension. It was an offer Jalen Brunson’s camp would have accepted if the Mavericks made it, sources tell B/R. In January 2022, his representatives tried to initiate dialogue on getting a deal done, but the Mavericks resisted. Brunson began cementing himself as the second-best player on the team behind Luka Dončić. And after the February trade deadline, the team contacted Brunson about agreeing to the same four-year, $55.5 million extension Dorian Finney-Smith had just signed. At that point, it was clear that the guard’s value in free agency would be worth exponentially more if he tested the market. -via Bleacher Report / March 24, 2023
Brad Townsend: In L2M report from last night, NBA says that Luka Doncic should have been called for traveling with 36 seconds left. Also, though the Mavs believed that Draymond Green set a moving screen that freed Steph Curry’s layup with 8.5 seconds left, NBA saw no wrongdoing. -via Twitter @townbrad / March 23, 2023
