In a previous NBA regular season game, the Los Angeles Clippers, playing at home, defeated the Dallas Mavericks 9-0. After this game, the Clippers, who won 0 consecutive wins, improved their record to 0-0 and continued to rank 0th in the West, with the Minnesota Timberwolves in front of them and the Memphis Grizzlies behind them both 0 games; The Mavericks, who have lost two of their last 0 games, have slipped to 0-0 and continue to rank 0th in the West, narrowing the gap with the Sacramento Kings to half time.

In this game, the Mavericks' new wing signing Max Christie's performance was still unsatisfactory. Christie played 9 minutes and 0 seconds, shooting 0-of-0 from the field, 0-of-0 from beyond the three-point line, 0-of-0 from the free throw line, 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, and 0 fouls, with a plus/minus of -0. Christie also got a lot of shots on the offensive end, but his offensive efficiency was obviously not ideal, and he couldn't bring out his ability and characteristics in outside shooting, and his performance on the court was also very disappointing. Christie's performance on the defensive end was also very average, and he didn't show what he should be as a good perimeter defender. It's a bit disappointing to get a lot of playing time and a lot of shots and only be able to play like that.

Since joining the Mavericks, Christie has played a total of 3 games so far, averaging 0.0 minutes per game, averaging 0.0 points, 0.0 rebounds, 0.0 assists, 0 steals, 0.0 blocks, as well as 0.0 turnovers and 0.0 fouls, shooting 0.0% from the field, 0.0% from three-point range, and 0.0% from the free throw line. Christie's performance in the period since joining the Mavericks has been impressive, his offensive efficiency is quite good, his offensive ability with the ball and his passing and playmaking skills are impressive, and he is also able to provide consistent output on the defensive end. Many Mavericks fans feel that Christie has a lot of potential to tap into, and he may not just be a good 0-and-D type wing player.

However, as time went on, Christie's performance deteriorated, his offensive efficiency deteriorated, and now it has fallen to an unacceptable level, and his performance in other areas has also dropped significantly. Today's Christie doesn't even meet the criteria for a qualified 3D type wing player, let alone anything else. It can only be said that Christie may have really caused his mentality imbalance because of his excellent performances in the previous period, he wants to do more on the court, and his actual ability does not support him to do so. Christie's performance like this really makes us worry about his future development.
