I never thought I'd live to see the day Matt Carroll played center, but now I have.
That's all I'm saying here.
Dear Brendan,
First off, let me say that it's been a delight to watch you play as a Maverick. You've been everything this team needs in the paint - tough, strong, and athletic. You can actually catch a basketball, which immediately makes you light years better than the vagina we've had playing center here the the past half-decade.
But there's something that concerns me. You haven't been on the court lately. The reports are of "lower back tightness" which I understand probably isn't too comfortable an affliction to have. However, I wonder if it means you need to be missing work. I'm pretty sure lower back tightness is something that many Americans deal with every day, and nobody calls in sick because of it.
I don't mean to belittle you, I just want to say this - skipping games because of "lower back tightness" might have flown in Washington, but this is Dallas. This is the Western Conference. You're playing with the big boys now. Time to put on those big boy pants.
Sack up.
Love,
monosylab1k

Back injuries can be tricky. Need to find out whether its from muscle spasms or disc injury. If its muscle spasms, give him some anti-inflammatories, stretching exercises, and different pain patches and he should get back on the court quickly.
Missed the first quarter -- what was the starting lineup?
I am actually inclined to agree to an extent but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt this time![]()
I though the low point of professional basketball was watching Devan George start at the 5. Maybe that's been topped.
the starting lineup was fine, but then Dirk got into foul trouble, along with Najera and Marion, and suddenly the team's most viable options down low were seriously DeShawn Stevenson and Matt Carroll.
Neither does Becky Hammon.
Not sorry I missed that![]()
I can't believe we don't have a Haywood troll yet.
when you have lower back pain, its almost impossible to walk. mavs have good trainers. he needs to ice then heat. and do some nerve therapy and he should be ready to go next week. i had lower back pain all the time playing ball in high school
An open letter to Mono

Allanon- There's a date and time on it if I edited it now. I can specifically find the post where I said he was a "role player" FIRST.
You take the bet or not you pussy ?
Mono - Ok I take that bet.
Allanon - I showed you where "role player" was. I won.
Change your sig to "I'm Allanon's ", Mono.![]()
Since when are the Mavericks the big boys? Big boys of regular season? If that then yes
Happens all the time to me. It's rough but you can fight through it. Especially when your employer pays you millions of dollars to do so.
I like how Laker fans display just how insecure they feel about playing the Mavericks in the playoffs.
They're up 17 on the Puppies without him. I'm sure he'd be playing if they were going up against the Cavs, Lakers, Nuggets, etc...
Who is defending Al Jefferson. Dirk?
Since the Lakers started to suck ass.
I don't write letters to Becky Hammon head.
I figured she was freaked out at how many you sent and eventually got a restraining order.
Why don't you go suck on Goran's neck mole? Get da outta heeeere.
I've thrown my back out three times in my life. That's the major times. I've had my back act up a bunch of other times to a lesser degree. I have a pretty bad lower back. It really does suck. First two times was from playing basketball, trying to dunk and landing flat-footed. It's a touchy thing. It's not something that really goes away and it's easily aggravated. Rest won't necessarily help it. Once you have a bad lower back, you're probably going to have back problems the rest of your life. So, I agree to a certain extent that he should just play through it if it's more of a discomfort than pain. But, if and when he does, it won't be surprising if he aggravates it at some point and/or make it worse.
Why should Brendan play against a lowly team like the T-pups? I'm glad he's getting rest.
