Nice effort by an overmatched Dubs squad. I thought Niang looked awful out there with three turnovers and 0/5 from three, but somehow he managed a +6. Hopefully Melton will take some confidence from his game tonight as he seemed pretty invisible out there in games 1 and 2.
Dirks Mavs once started the season 0-4 only to win 60+ games and....well the rest of the story doesn't matter in this context. 🤪😅
