WHO: Dallas Mavericks at Washington Wizards
WHAT: The Mavs try yet again for elusive win number 2.
WHERE: Capital One Arena, Washington, D.C.
WHEN: 6:00 p.m. CT
HOW: Fox Sports Southwest or NBA League Pass
THE STORY: As a member of our staff put it earlier today, the Mavs are butt. Dallas has had a few days off to make their way from Minnesota to Washington, D.C., but they will have their hands full with this Wizards backcourt (assuming John Wall plays tonight). Both teams are a little banged up, with both Wall and Wesley Matthews recovering from minor issues. Regardless, if Wall plays, expect the Mavs guards to have their work cut out for them guarding Wall and Beal.
Dallas currently has the worst record in the NBA, so I would just love for them to please pull a good road win out of their butts tonight. Can we just get a little closer to good basketball? Please?
