New 3 Ball!
I’m probably the only person crazy enough to spend several minutes on injuries to Aaron Wiggins and Isaiah Jackson on a podcast.
Lots of other stuff, too!

Better than their 5-point deficit on Sunday against the Magic, but worse than almost everything else. – 9:34 PM

Horrible rebounding is making life miserable for the Mavericks. The Thunder have 13 second-chance points. The Mavericks have zero. They have been outrebounded 25-13 at halftime. They still are tied at 51. – 9:33 PM

Marquese Chriss just took a hard fall near the same spot as Luka. He was slow to get up, and perhaps more for a mental flashback than a physical issue.
“That’s how I broke my [expletive] leg,” he shouted to refs as he walked back. – 9:19 PM

Mavericks not having one of their highlight defensive nights. They surrendered 30 points in the first quarter, 52 percent shooting and were outrebounded 11-4. To only be down by 2 points is a commentary on both teams. – 9:04 PM
