Did this game matter to the Mavs? I thought they were pretty much locked into that 7th spot...
Good job by Terry

They don't want to rest guys. We've been playing well lately, I think we'd won like 7 of 8 coming into this game and they want to keep guys sharp by playing. Last year they shut guys down once the #1 seed was clinched, while GS was already playing playoff basketball. The rust was probably a bit of a factor early in the series.
Mavs were 6-4 out of their last 10, so not bad. I think there is a small possibility that the Mavs can be the 8th seed, but I doubt it.
NO loses to Sac
I guess, I'm just surprised they played Dirk so much. I guess Avery wants to keep him in a rythmn going into the playoffs. Mavs have been playing well since Dirk went down and they had their backs to the wall.
Wow - didn't figure the Mavs would lose this game.

They let the Blazers shoot 59%. They were down big, tied it at 101 on a Dirk jumper with a minute left, then JET had an awful foul on an Aldridge dunk for an And One.
I love my team! We don't have anything to play for and we still nut up and beat the Mavs.
Jet and Avery can be so stupid
We didn't have our starting Sg and our starting SF and you still only won by 3I love my team! We don't have anything to play for and we still nut up and beat the Mavs.
Blazers brought it tonight. I'm convinced that the karma of playing hard last year and not tanking is what got them the top pick. The Blazers are certainly doing things the right way and seem to have exorcised the stink of the Jail Blazers era.I love my team! We don't have anything to play for and we still nut up and beat the Mavs.
POR is a very good team at home. When they are hot from the outside they are tough to beat.
We didn't have the #1 draft pick (Oden), our starting center (Przybilla), or our starting small forward (Webster).
The sad thing about the Blazers is this is their 6th straight season missing the playoffs. They have stockpiles of draft picks but it remains to be seen whether any of their players will realize their potential outside of Roy. I'm not sold that they will be an automatic contender in the next few years. There are a ton of teams in the NBA with talent that still suck.........like the Nuggets.
Yeah, but I didn't think the Rockets were going to lose against the Kings either. Everytime I see a loss like what the Mavs did tonight, I laugh a bit, then think about how the Rockets lost by one damn point to the low Kings.
^ 5 straight missing the playoffs. We beat them in the first round in 02-03.
I guess you are in for a surprise then. The Lakers are the only team with a realistic chance of competing with us actually. That is assuming Bynum's knee is okay.
We have an Injured Dirk playing, no starting Sg, and No starting Sf and you guys were up by 14 at one point, and weren't you guys shooting like 59%? And yet you only won by 3.
Blazers played well and deserved to win. You take your lumps and move on.
The key point there is we still won by 3.
Don't mind me I'm just the definition of a sore loser.
The game was meaningless anyways since Mavs are locked in 7th barring something major, but I think the last game against NO for the Mavs may be important in deciding who they will face first round.
Blazers beat the Lakers the other night at home and the blazers crowds are back which makes the Rose Garden a tough place to play once again
I guess you are REALLY in for a surprise then.
