Actually I still think y'all have the talent......before the season started when every Rockets fan said y'all were finished, I said y'all would surprise some people. Up to now y'all have made me look like a complete ass and I know y'all are underachieving. The Mavs haven't fallen that far behind, they just don't play as a damn team and severely lack some serious dicilpline......but they still have talent. (remeber Houston last year struggled under a 1st year head coach and everyone and their sister wrote them off)
The thing I can't stand is how they go into "jumpshoot mode"......"c'mon everybody it's time to throw up jumpshots". It absolutely kills them and when you get down to it, I think that's where they miss Devin Harris.....because when the team got into that mode, Harris could get to the basket and either score or flop and draw a foul at will. He was their best penetrator. That's what their missing now.....a good penetrator.
Indeed the lack of slashing is a problem.
The biggest problem thus far IMO has been the perimeter shooting. less than 30% over 11 games is just terrible and unacceptable. If we're gonna be a jump shooting team primarily, we should atleast be good at it.
It's arguable that the Mavs would be 5-6 or 6-5 right now with above average 3-PT shooting... in fact, we probably would be... but we've been piss poor from behind the arc.
Slashing? Play Gerald Green, why is he getting only token minutes?
DD
Once he gets a clue on defense he'll get more minutes. On D he's making mistakes a high schooler knows not to make....he's gotta fix that. Right now I like giving him 10-15 minutes a night, and if he is playing with high energy and has a hot hand, let him have 10 -15 more.
The Mavs should bring back the guy in your sig. That would fix everything. You should friend him on facebook:

Where the Mav haters at now???
WOOHOOO 4-7!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS TEAM IS BADASS!
I hope the Mavs beat the Rockets tonight. The lesser of 2 evils
BobcatsDynasty is viewing this thread. I'm getting excited
Fluke win. Mavs just made all their shots and the Bobcats didn't. Plus we didn't have Jason Richardson, a bonafide Mavericks teabagger. If J-Rich was out there shooting some shots, Bobcats win easy.
P.S. I like how the Mavs are too cowardly to play their mid-level exception player, Diop. If you're truly a good team, you can play really crappy players on your team. We do it every night with Sean May.
The Rockets will annihilate the Mavs tonight!
We felt for the Bobcats...since they already had May we didnt want them to sign Diop and have 2 super spares on their team....so we decided to go ahead and offer Diop the full MLE
