WHO: Dallas Mavericks vs. Los Angeles Lakers
WHAT: Hoping this doesn’t hurt too much
WHERE: American Airlines Center, Dallas Texas
WHEN: 8:30 p.m. CST
WHY: Because we have to
THE STORY: Last night the Mavericks defeated the Detroit Pistons 127-117 and yet we were all still mad that they made it look so hard. This team hasn’t looked good lately, even against bad teams, and it’s been frustrating.
Hopefully that changes tonight and Dallas comes out blazing, not falling into a hole they have to dig out of against a good team. Maybe they come out and hit a bunch of threes. Maybe Luka has someone fix his haircut before the game. Heck, maybe they even play a little defense. Ok, let’s not get crazy.
Lebron James is still out recovering from an injury suffered when Lola Bunny stepped on his foot on the set of Space Jam 2, but unfortunately Anthony Davis and his eyebrow return tonight to make us sad. It’s a late game so make some coffee, watch with us and leave some nice comments.
