Dirk Nowitzki suffers before Dallas games
Currently in last place in the West, with 2 wins and 7 losses, c Mavericks font hard to see at the beginning of the season. Cooper Flagg confess that he had never lost so much in his lifeand Jason Kidd was quickly forced to replace him at his wing spot, starting with D’Angelo Russell to bring some creation back to the big five.
Even so, the problems are numerous, especially on offense where the Mavericks are showing the worst efficiency this early season, and that convincingly with 103.2 points scored per 100 possessions…
“I feel sorry for Mavs fans” I can only explain Dirk Nowitzki on the Prime Video set. “It’s a catastrophic start to the season. There is a huge hole in leadership, and also in creation. We knew that this hole was not filled this summer. There is a problem in creating shots. A problem in setting up shots…”
In the absence Kyrie Irvinglikely next month, Dallas lacks solutions with the ball.
“They can’t shoot. They can’t create.”
“We knew their health would be very important” continues the Texas legend. “Obviously, Kyrie’s out for a few more months. But they need a healthy AD (Anthony Davis), a healthy (Derek) Lively II. And both of them have already missed a lot of games. Gafford has missed games, too. It’s just a terrible start. They’re on their way to a record-setting start to the season in terms of bad offense. Lateral, passing, nobody’s hitting.
Especially Doc Luka Dončić continues big trips in the new jersey.
“It hurts, as a Mavs fan” admits for his part Mark Cuban at the beginning of the Slovenian season. “Especially because if I had better defined my role beforehand, we could have avoided this from happening. It hurts. I know this breaks the hearts of Mavs fans everywhere, although I’m happy for Luke as well.”
