I’ve been noticing that. He got some big time stone hands.

Gobert but it will become a layup line for the rest of the team

I voted Minnesota in 6 but that might be generous. Without HCA, if the Mavs don't win tonight this is done in 5 IMHO.
I wanted to tell you that the Mavs will make you eat crow but was too tired, so here it is
You sticking by your pick or have changed feelings now?

For one Doncic isn't 4 inches taller than Edwards, two even if he is that means Edwards should be faster than him as smaller players tend to have a speed advantage which is all you need to get a step and then pull up and shoot.
This is just stupid offense to dribble through your legs 50 times and then just settle for a 3. Takes all the pressure off the D.
If Edwards wants to be known as an elite player, that strategy ain't it. Get you ass into the mid range, beat your defender off the dribble and get a mid range jumper. If Dwayne Wade and Kawhi Leonard can do it, don't gimme that nonsense of "the game has changed too much", no it hasn't.
