as a side note

we have the worst plays out of timeouts. this used to be avery's thing too.

this team plays with no confidence

two things on top of my head:

aj still cannot come up a way to defend pick and roll. after mavs went up 92-91, jazz ran two straight p-n-r, one through boozer, another through okur. and both time ended up with mavs fouling.
dirk had three critical turnovers. One when mavs were still up 92-91, and two in a row when mavs trailed only by 6 (92-98). coupled with mavs' inability to defend jazz's p-n-r, jazz's lead balooned to double digits. dirk's mental toughness is still in question.

moral victories can only count so much. it looks like mavs need to fight to get in the playoff now.

The weather

knocked out my satellite. I barely saw any of the second half.

Lucky You...

Same story...playing uninspired most of the game, fall behind, play catchup, catchup, forget to close out. So frustrating!

Bah

Right now I'm just plain fed up with basketball. Why did we have to draw the good teams away? Heck, why did we have to draw four elite teams while still trying to adjust to this?

well after sleeping my anger off

here is how i am making myself feel better... the last 2 seasons the mavs won games like this... this year we aren't.. so since the last 2 seasons ended horrendously.. this won will end in a title...

HA.. i hate basketball
