WHO: Dallas Mavericks vs. Denver Nuggets
WHAT: Basketbawwwwwlllllll
WHERE: American Airlines Center, Dallas, Texas
WHEN: 7:30 p.m. CT
HOW: TXA21
THE STORY: WE MADE IT, EVERYONE! The Dallas Mavericks* will be playing an actual, regulation length game featuring players who are on their team** against a Denver Nuggets team who should be improved this year. The Nuggets being improved is a scary thought for the Mavs, as Denver has had their number more often than not in past years. But preseason is just about seeing what you have (hi Justin Anderson!) and getting a little better, and hopefully not getting injured in the process, and that's all we're looking for this evening.
GO MAVS and GO NO INJURIES!
*Some of them. Not Dirk, or Parsons, or D-Will, or Wes, or.....wait are we sure this is the Mavericks?
**Some players may not be on the team when the season starts! But that's okay.
