Although the star star Luka Doncic averaged close to the big three dollars per game in the season, the Dallas Mavericks have had a poor record in recent times. They have lost 6 of the past 8 games. Seeing the team’s poor performance, Doncic publicly expressed dissatisfaction. He admitted that the team needs to change.
Last season, the Lone Ranger emerged under Doncic’s leadership and reached the playoffs in one fell swoop. For the Lone Ranger, they have higher expectations in the new season. However, so far, the performance of Lone Ranger has not been satisfactory. Recently, they have lost 6 in the past 8 games, and they have suffered a 3-game losing streak recently. The fierce competition in the West has allowed them to rank 11th in the West with a record of 8 wins and 10 losses so far.
The Mavericks played very badly on defense this season. So far, the Mavericks defensive efficiency is 110.2, ranking 19th in the league. Statistics show that the Lone Ranger has scored at least 110 points in 8 consecutive games. Obviously, Lone Ranger head coach Rick Carlisle needs to lead the coaching team to solve the team’s defense problems.
Kristaps Porzingis, the Lone Ranger insider general, has made a comeback during this period, but his performance has not been satisfactory. So far, KP has averaged 19.7 points and 8.3 rebounds for the Lone Ranger, shooting 47% from the field and 29% from the three-point range. On the defensive end, KP averaged 1.7 hot pot per game, but despite this, he did not pose much threat in the penalty area.
Doncic clearly expressed his dissatisfaction with the current situation of the team: “I really don’t know what to say. We need to change. Now many things are not right, we need to show better performance than this.”
So far this season, Doncic’s performance is quite eye-catching. He averaged 27.4 points, 9.4 rebounds and 9.7 assists per game, which is close to averaging three yuan per game. Doncic is also a hot candidate for the regular season MVP, but the premise is that the team must have a better record.
