WHO: Dallas Mavericks at Chicago Bulls
WHAT: Deron Williams and Wes Matthews are playing!
WHERE: Pinnacle Bank Arena, Lincoln, NE
WHEN: 7:00 p.m. CT
HOW: NBA League Pass, televised locally in the Chicago area and streaming on Mavs.com.
THE STORY: I think all of us had conditioned ourselves to think that the Mavs had no hope this season. But then it was announced that Wes Matthews and Deron Williams were playing tonight and lo, how the angels sang.
Okay, well, maybe we don't overreact THAT much to two guys coming off injury, but it's better than what was projected to be the starting backcourt!
I'm excited to see how this goes. Let's go Mavs!
