Technical foul on Luka Doncic to end the half; Jazz will have a FT to start the second. – 9:34 PM

After Doncic missed the shot, Gobert tossed the ball toward Doncic. Obviously Doncic took exception. Probably not a great idea, making Doncic mad at the halftime buzzer. Think he’ll come out energized in the third quarter? – 9:33 PM

Some shenanigans at the end of the half. Clearly, Luka thought he got fouled, but had some words for Gobert, who circled back. Refs are indeed reviewing the play. – 9:32 PM

A little kerfuffle between Luka and Royce O’Neal at halftime turned into a good bit of jawing by both teams, but not much else. Mavericks scored the last four points to go up 60-49 at the half. – 9:32 PM

As Doncic told us the last time these teams met, in SLC: “That’s a matchup I like.” – 9:30 PM

Dorian Finney-Smith’s putback dunk just now was so emphatic even Luka’s got to be jealous. – 9:23 PM

Dinwiddie has picked up where Doncic left off — 11p on 4-8 now. Cooking the Jazz defense. They’re looking like they’re on the end of a 5-game/week-plus-long road trip. – 9:21 PM

While Doncic has sat in the 2nd quarter, per NBA Courtside: Spencer Dinwiddie accounts for 61.1% of the team’s points in the 2nd quarter (11 points, 0 assists, 0 points created from assists). – 9:21 PM

That 16-point first quarter by Doncic was the 27th time in his young career that he has scored 16 or more points in a quarter (regular season).
It’s the fifth time he has done it in 2022, in other words in barely more than two months. – 9:16 PM

The Jazz are having real issues on this second unit. They can’t beat anyone off the dribble, so even with Luka not on the floor, they aren’t scoring. So the Mavs are in the switch and having their way with Utah’s offense – 9:14 PM

End 1Q: Mavs 30, Jazz 24. All in all, Utah didn’t play horribly, though they’re gonna have to find a way to get Luka out of his comfort zone a bit — 16p on 7-10, plus 4r, 2a. Bogey had 10p for the Jazz, Don 6p, 2a. Rough quarter for Conley — 0p, 0a. – 9:09 PM

Mavs up 30-24 after 1Q. Luka has completely dominated so far, he has 16 points. Jazz are might be a little fortunate to be down just six. But they are, which gives them a springboard to win the bench minutes coming up here. – 9:08 PM
