Where is everyone??

Everyone still in mourning after wanting to rip Avery's head off?? I just turned on the game and I feel better already...

A good game against the Kings helps ease the pain a little guys...

Hell

even allen is getting some quality PT tonight!!

Kidd is much more aggressive on the offence

Perhaps he wants to show Avery that he can trust him at crunch time.

I was just gonna point that out

he is playing with his back to the basket and going after rebounds... even though they arent going in right now, you have to like the effort.

He def seems to have a little more pep to his step than he did last night.

Artest

is shredding our D... I didnt realize how big he was

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:03 PM CST reply actions

was that last layup by #2 or #34

that was the fastest I have seen kidd run to the basket...

Then terry lets udrich run right by him

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:05 PM CST reply actions

Still a lot of jumpers

and no defense... yet another 3rd quarter collapse... whats this, 59 games in a row now we have done this?

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:08 PM CST reply actions

He should do that more!

Kidd already has the highest ppg as a Maveric.

by mavic on Feb 29, 2008 9:10 PM CST reply actions

Wow...

FINALLY we win a 3rd quarter... man I wish I was there...

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:17 PM CST reply actions

Classic Dirk!

by mavic on Feb 29, 2008 9:19 PM CST up reply actions

I wonder if Avery will

now pull Dirk and Kidd now to open some shots up for the rest of the game... JK

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:18 PM CST reply actions

Hahaha

by mavic on Feb 29, 2008 9:21 PM CST up reply actions

That was a T??

Damn I wish Dirk would've forearmed him in the back of his head after that...

Miller is such a punk

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:24 PM CST reply actions

20-3 run

wow... and I heard we had a 30-10 run?? Those are nice, but I wished we played a little more consistently in between those...

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:25 PM CST reply actions

Artest

is looking to take over this game...

Where is Damp at? He really hasnt seen much action tonight it seems like... only 15 min so far? 8 rebounds and only two fouls... hmmmm

Hey T.O., why dont you go cheer for the "whistles" every night like you did in the finals and watch them lose EVERY GAME... That still bugs me about him, along with a few other things

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:30 PM CST reply actions

and here they come back again

now sac is only down two with 7:29 left... of course now we go back with damp...

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:31 PM CST reply actions

FINALLY A FOUL

Artest had both forearms on Nowitzki's chest!

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:33 PM CST reply actions

2 more assists for Kidd's tripple double

But I don't really care. Just win the game!

by mavic on Feb 29, 2008 9:33 PM CST reply actions

kidd...

two assists away from a TD... and nails another 3!

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:34 PM CST reply actions

Even though he has knocked down a few

Dirk is still settling for too man jumpers... He was shooting a really good % in the first half...

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:38 PM CST reply actions

of course the one time he does take it

he falls down with a no call and now we up 103-99 after that last kidd lay-up

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:40 PM CST reply actions

Dang Martin and Udrich

are killing us

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:42 PM CST reply actions

Kidd makes a smart play at the end of the game

by resisting the urge for the TD, hits first FT, misses 2nd, gets rebound, and we now have the win...

Hmmm... Jet was out also... just observations here...

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:48 PM CST reply actions

Great game from everyone

but JET and Bass

We know Jet will come out of this, but I was really hoping that Bass would continue his great play from last night.

Josh game out of this one shooting above 50% for the first time in awhile, good to see him going.

by Toddy on Feb 29, 2008 9:53 PM CST reply actions

The NBA

really ought to look at doing something about this to prevent teams that are getting the head absolutely beat the f in from making the last 17 seconds last 10+ minutes. Perhaps FTs and the ball in the last 30 secs...

by BrodyV on Feb 29, 2008 9:56 PM CST reply actions

On a side note...

with 4 games in 5 days... im glad howard, kidd, and dirk all played 40+ min...

I guess we needed that too win, but still... Damp only had 20, JET only had 20... Stack had 32... he played really well (again IMO) but can we please manage these heavy min a little bit better??

Especially with the Lakers on an early afternoon game on sunday?
