That's a plus.
Fire Todd Dodge. Seriously. Back to Suckville with a loss to FLA ATL but whatever, SUCK IT WESTERN KENTUCKY! 1-9 baby!
Damn
Too bad that dunk by Green didn’t count, but what the hell was Damp doing shooting that anyway?
Yeah, that was weird
You could see him thinking “I know I shouldn’t shoot but I’m so open….”
and he just did it again.

I didn't know Zach Randolph shoots threes
I know he tries to…I am reminded of that awful possession by him that’s on Youtube somewhere, with the And 1 dribbling and he chucks an airball three…still makes me laugh
I know, it's so funny
Because even the commentators didn’t know what he was thinking out there and Isiah had this classic expression on his face, haha
Not bad
Down only by 9 and the Knicks are shooting it so well…you have to figure they’ll cool off eventually. We just need to defend better and finish at the rim…the usual stuff.
I wonder why he was first off the bench to replace Damp
Carlisle no longer trusts Diop after his poor defensive (and offensive) showing on Friday?
It wasn't too long ago
when the second lineup was like Devin/Stack/Quis/Van Horn/Diop.
Our guys right now are just a group of scrubs, and I’m afraid it now includes Bass.
I have this old Mavs media guide
That my brother got for me at Goodwill for like 50 cents…who is Mladen Sekularac? I don’t remember that guy at all.
Not player too well until now, huh?
Well, the Blazers had to make a comeback in the fourth yesterday against the Wolves, too. Everything’s posssssiiiibuuuuulllee as KG would say.
The Wolves are surprising me so far this season
They have been challenging a lot of the tougher teams…not sure how much noise they’ll make, but maybe they won’t be as bad as last year
Take it to the rack, guys
I have to say it every night…but they really have to do it against the Knicks. They only have one big in Randolph and Nate Robinson is not even six feet tall
Man
Too bad Dirk didn’t make that shot…again, at the rim, but it was contested. That could have cut it to three.
Yeah, definitely
I love David Lee…I think he was the only one who was playing with any heart last season during the whole Isiah mess.
Too late. Caught it with 0.4 and couldn't get it off
But he still played great for the time I watched
I went in with the mindset that it won't be better than Casino Royale
Because it’d be pretty hard to top that film. I thought QoS was a good movie…the plot was sort of murky, but that might just be me. I liked the female lead, Olga Kurylenko…I’ve never seen her before. Daniel Craig was super hot, as always.
Woah, that is so cool
Haven’t seen the film yet. And Roger Moore? Please, he’s the worst Bond as far as I’m concerned.
Anybody know the blackhaired girl in the green Dirk jersey behind D'Antoni's bench?
I think I have seen her before :)
That obvious offensive goal-tending no-call
should be UN-no-called. I’ll be damned if that haunts us at the end.
Dirk might need to score 40+
Or the team collectively can just play better defense…the Knicks found their shooting touch again
I just screamed bloody murder here, haha
My throat hurts…and this is just a regular season game against the Knicks
Since when is Terry the go-to guy?
Missed like against Orlando (though that was preceded by the horrible inbound by Josh)
Carlisle probably wanted to wipe the bad taste from Terry...
..by letting him take the final shot again. But yeah, a drive and dish would have been better.
I didn't like the execution in the last 10 seconds of the regulation again
But in OT they were clearly dominating
Nice to beat the coach with three first names
Maybe this will be the launching pad we all thought the SA win would be
Yes!
We won! And I love how they don’t act like they won the Finals either, like some teams (ahem, Boston) when they beat a team in a close game
I was wrong
Dirk didn’t need to score 40+, but I’m grateful he didn’t have to. That means he got a lot of help…Josh did great tonight (double double for him too) and Singleton was pretty competent during his time on the floor. Terry did well and Barea hit some big threes in the latter stages.
I do have to wonder about Green and Damp disappearing, though.
Carlisle played without a center for the whole second half
After they couldn’t stop Randolph, he probably figured he would rather try to pull their big men out with Dirk and another forward.
Carlisle's thinking worked
In theory, it’s right. Randolph doesn’t play any defense anyway, so match him with Bass. Bass can’t defend either but at least he’s as quick and can score.
But boy had we lost this game, I guarantee people would be bitching about small ball, Carlisle not playing a center, him being the second coming of Avery, etc.
WE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
