Gah
with each game I’m regretting my decision to deal Bosh and R-Jeff for Deng and Al-Jeff in one roto league more and more.
Damn
of the justin.tv streams:
-One is Spanish
-Two don’t work
-One is English but waaaay behind
I’ll have to use Spanish.
Van Gundy talking about how Dirk takes less threes
The thing is, I don’t think he’s been shooting well from downtown
I read that Stack didn't make the trip
If/when Stack leaves the team, I just hope it doesn’t end bitterly. I don’t have anything against the guy.
Random question: When are the Mavs going to wear the Green jerseys?
Not that I miss them, but it’s been a while. Kidd’s never been in one.
I completely
missed that last part. JJB went in and scored, but I wasn’t sure whether the score was tied or we were down by 1.
It's tougher now because Gasol is helped by Bynum/Odom/Radmanovic
Carlisle better come up with a way to iso Dirk with Pau
except
these threes are gonna stop falling eventually…whereas they are driving and getting points in the paint
was it really a charge or
have the refs already decided that the Kobes are the champs?
That looked pretty funny
Dirk, Kidd, Pau, and Kobe just hanging around at the basket, dribbling and shooting
Yeah
made me laugh. Dirk sinks some shots, Pau wants the ball, Kidd gives it to home as if they’re going to play 2-on-2.
Ooooooh....
That Jet three was sooooo close.
And Kidd faked the guy out of his shoes…he’s a 3pt threat now apparently.
i dont think we couldve asked for a better start
In reference to how good the Steelers have been in their history: "No one is even close to them."- Steal Home
Halftime discussion
which bench player (other than terry) is going to be the most consistent in doing his job…for the sake of the game we will say that anyone starting at SG is a bench player since that has changed around so much
I would love for it to be
JJB, but I think Diop can be more consistent…not at scoring, but at rebounding and dirty d…but will he? I don’t know
It seems
that some confidence was given to them after the close LAL game…but only against LA.
We seem to know we can compete with them
i mean it probably won't happen
but I wish for it too
Nash and Mike Finley for me
I haven’t been watching the Mavs that long to appreciate the older players
I take it a little off
since he was a little too injury-prone for my liking, but I guess that was because he drove to the rim A LOT.
Terry misses the tech
Which they didn’t even show, since ESPN just had to reply the Bynum dunk four times
How long until we take Dirk, Kidd and Jet for tomorrow's game?
Or do we just go all the way tonight?
This is frustrating. We play the fakers good for 3 quarters.
It’s just always the fourth that we disappear.
Kareem sitting behind the Lakers bench
looked like he was about to fall asleep

The Mavs have done it again
This game was looking SO promising. And out of habit, they blow it big time. I thought they were over that? Guess not.
Back to Below500Land once more.
I HATE!
the announcers on ESPN…they didn’t have a single good thing to say about the Mavs
it is nationally broadcast
why do they have announcers that only announce things about 5 of the 30 teams
ESPN's frontpage
also talks about how the Lakers “cooled off” the Mavs shooters and their offence was “too hot to handle”. It was for about one quarter.
Well, that was fun for like three and a half quarters
This is a disturbing pattern that I really thought they’ve corrected, especially after coming from behind in NY and Indiana.
I realize that
But the team has talked about confidence coming into this game, and I don’t know, I just think they could have done a better job defensively instead of letting the Lakers go on that huge run
Was that when Devean George was in the game?
I know it’s a tough job to stop the Lakers, but he looked pretty useless, while Wright at least bothered Kobe
I'd say a good stretch for aim for
is to aim for something like 13-3 to end the year. That would be pretty good.
Again, we might've relied on the J a little too much
I understand they were falling, but when they went cold they didn’t draw fouls. The Mavs only shot nine free throws as a team
Well, it was fun chatting with you guys
Now I’m off to watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia…I need some humor!
’Til tomorrow…
At some point in the second half one of the announcers said Howard was out.
When he said that, I had actually forgotten that Howard played for us. I’m not saying that to be funny, I’m saying it, because I don’t think that we need Howard to win against lesser opponets, which we just proved with those 5 wins in a row, and I didn’t miss him in this game after I remembered that he played for us.
I have witnessed time and time again.
Did you
also remember that Jason Terry is playing very consistently (which probably won’t last) and you can’t expect JJB to give you almost a double double. You can’t get 24 from Wright but once a year.
I am all for giving J-ho in a trade if the price is right, but people are playing him down right now. We shouldn’t deal now. We should wait until he is looking good (possibly an All-Star candidate) then we pull the trigger.
