Craziest part about how DET was trying to defend Luka, was to try to switch Stewart on to him. Not sure why they wouldn’t want Diallo on him. Or better yet try to double him like they did, the few minutes he played in 4th qtr. Though at this point, I’m not sure Luka is defendable – 12:07 AM

Only one concern coming out of the Mavs win tonight. Luka picked up his 3rd technical in the last 4 games and now has 11 for the season (In 40 games) tying him w/Embiid and Westbrook, one behind Carmelo. You are suspended on the 16th. Mavs have 26 games to play. – 12:04 AM
