TIME TO PANIC With Klay Thompson? | Dallas Mavericks News

Klay Thompson highlights in his first 6 games with the Dallas Mavericks may not be exactly what Mavericks fans envisioned, but there is no need to panic as he tries to integrate himself into the offense alongside Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving. Mavs head coach Jason Kidd would like to get Klay a few more opportunities, but there is no cause for concern with Klay’s start to his Mavericks tenure.

Mavs head coach Jason Kidd on the Mavs fouling too much:
“We gotta be better. We’re out here hacking. There’s smart fouls and there’s bad fouls and we have a ton of bad fouls. It’s all coachable. It’s all fixable. It’s not the referees. It’s us. We gotta be better.”

  3. Luka and others didn't pass many balls to Klay last night. Luka should be passing a lot more, he's going back to his old ball hugging, not good. Last night Orlando was a half team only, Mavs won’t beat OKC or Boston, not even the Cavaliers or Nicks that way.

  4. There's absolutely no reason to panic with Klay. Klay impact has been great. He's playing good defense, he's playmaking, and the sheer gravity he has is helping opening up the court.

    2 thing.

    I don't think it's a flow thing but I think Kidd just hasn't figured out the offense and we have 2 awesome bigs that we're being fed a lot so with the 3rd scoring option is going to be either Klay or the bigs. And last night the Mavs big were the 3rd scoring option which isn't bad at all

  6. I know it’s early, but Luka is showing his old tendencies. I think him moving the ball more, and moving without the ball will help this Mavs team grow. And he needs to stop complaining and focus on controlling what he can control… needs to work on it now and not in the playoffs.

  8. Why do you guys have to use such stupid headlines? We are 6 games into the season. My goodness, chill out and stop trying to start something. You cannot give the Mavs a grade at this point, but I am happy to give you an F- for such foolishness. zthis is the kind of crappy reporting tha makes me not watch your podcast more than once a month.

  10. Klay has been an A. Before the season people were talking about his defense like he was going to be completely washed on D and we would regret not having DJJ out there. Instead he has looked quite good on defense so far which is far above expectations. Very happy with his play and he fits right in on offense.

  15. Im not worried, because teams aren't doubling Luka as much as they used to, could be because it's early in the season and Luka is having shooting woes but I see klay getting open opportunities as the season goes. Teams rather go 1v1 on Luka get his points then double him and leave klay open.

  16. Kai and Luka are not blitzed and doubled as much when Klay is there lol Why should we panic? lol

    Once Preseason Luka gets on the groove and started making shots, teams will double him and Klay gets open when that happens… The only reason Klay don't get too many attempts as much coz Luka is not hitting shots to the point where teams won't double him.. Klay is fine

  19. Preseason the chat was that Klay would score 20/game. Don't know how he'll get there with Luka and Kai scoring 60/game. 14.5/game is fine. 37% from 3 is fine also. If the Mavs focus on his shot more he'll raise those numbers.
