Luka, C-Wood, & THJ Combine for 88 to Propel Mavs To Christmas Win Against Lakers

In this episode, Jay, Fazal, and Rohan talk about the 124-115 Christmas Day win over the Los Angeles Lakers in Dallas, which they put together a 51-point third quarter to overcome a slow start to the game. They discuss the strong games from the trio of Luka Dončić (30 pts, 9 Reb, 9 ast), Christian Wood, and Tim Hardaway Jr. (26 pts, 6 3PM). They focus on the contributions of Wood, who put together arguably his best game in a Dallas Mavericks uniform, recording 30 points, 8 Reb, 7 ast, 2 elk, 4 stl. They look back on the recent success of Wood in the starting lineup, and make the case for offering him a 4-year $77 million max extension before the trade deadline. They conclude the podcast by paying homage to Dirk Nowitzki, whose statue was finally unveiled prior to the game, officially immortalizing him in the city of Dallas.
