The Dallas Mavericks lost a lopsided contest to the Denver Nuggets, 118-99 Tuesday night in Dallas.
After a game where Dallas built a lead that slipped away, eventually losing a close one to Denver on Sunday, this one was pretty much washed from the jump. Flush it. Forget about it. This one was a stinker.
Infinite: Articles to be written connecting Shedeur Sanders to the Cowboys
Win or lose, the content must flow. Unfortunately for us here at Mavs Moneyball dot com, there’s not much to say about this one. Our loss is Cowboys’ writer’s gain, however, as Shedeur Sander’s presence throughout the game is sure to spawn enough hot takes to power a city block. Is Deion bringing showtime to Dallas?!
1: Maverick with a positive plus/minus
The chosen one, Oliver-Maxence Prosper. If the fourth quarter was the game, and not just a live scrimmage between each team’s deep bench, it would’ve been a more interesting contest. In fact, Dallas would have prevailed, as they won the frame 32-27, led by Prosper’s 10 points.
5th: Sub 100-point game this season
Dallas has had five games this year where they failed to top 100 points and lost four of them. (They notched a surprisingly defensive contest 98-89 against Phoenix this season). Dallas’ roster is in a tough place with injuries, which is most felt on the offensive side of the ball. Even with Kyrie Irving back in the lineup, albeit on a minutes restriction, the offense was flat nearly the entire night.
