utah.
It's like watching Phoenix with porter. No defense and no offense. But kudos for making the playoffs...
Mavs have a chance to get swept by the Nuggets instead of the Lakers now. Awesome.
, they ain't that frickin good!
Mavs would have won that one game in Denver if not for that completely bull call on Chauncey at the buzzer.
Denver would win in 6 games though.
We need to hope the Hornets/Jazz lose the road games they're supposed to lose.
And we win the home games we're supposed to win.
Or else we're 8 seed regardless and experience a quick painless death. At least it's painless. Actually it would hurt

Utah sucks period.
Mavs need to nut up and win one against the Hornets. They don't match up well with that team though.
No. Chris Paul just abuses us. That's another team the Mavs have no chance against.
Ya'll are thinking of the Hornets of last year. CP3 abuses Nash too but the Suns won tonight. He had 43 points v the Warriors and they lost to a 7 man Warriors team last Friday. That teams been trash for 7 weeks and if not for some luck ass Butler shots would be 8th. It'll be interesting to see if Chandler is back though.
I think we'll split![]()
The key to beating NOLA is to go under the p'n'r and force Paul to carry that team offensively - take away his ability to dish and make him score 50. I don't think he can do it on a consistent basis.
Utah matches up better with LA than Dallas, so I'm glad to see Utah vs. LA in the first round. That's a possible 8 seed over a 1 seed there.
it seems the only west team that can win on the road is denver and thats a stretch.
I agree, I saw the PHX game tonight and this was pretty much what they did. 29 points on 29 shots for CP3. He did have 16 assists though.
That team just isn't that good. They made Phoenix look like an okay defensive team tonight. I think last year was an aberration with no injuries + Chandler/West/Peja playing at extremely high levels along with capitalizing on a Mavs team in disarray in the 1st round.
Really it's just Paul, a decent PF (West), a mediocre center (Chandler), and then a smorgasbord of aging jump shooters (Posey, Butler, Peja, Mo Pete, Devin Brown, etc). Dunno why people thought this team was gonna make noise this year. Their margin of victory is 1.9 this year compared to 5.3 last year, a VERY steep drop. Mavs are only 1.9 themselves though.
so we blow out two teams that just went into New Orleans and won.
id be disappointed if we didnt win on Sunday
wtf i just checked the schedule and we play them on Friday before our away game on Sunday?![]()
Yup. Usually when teams play twice within a week, for whatever reason, they split the games often.
Let's sweep that ing ass baby. Hopefully Chandler isn't back, even though I think he's a ing scrub. (he is).
He's not playing either games. Might play Monday at Houston.
I thought he was only out 7-14 days?
Wasn't it 7-14 days ago when that news came out?![]()
If your the Mavericks you have a player in Dirk Nowitski, your not scared of the Hornets.
My mama used to tell me when i was younger "son its time to sweep the bugs out of the kitchen" thats what Dallas needs to do this week
They just took off his cast earlier in the week. He's doing some jogging, but Scott says he doesn't look good while running. He's not going to be healthy. Posey is playing Friday, but he has to wear a sleeve over his elbow the rest of the season. It won't fully heal by playoff time.
That's awesome.![]()
The refs call more fouls on them....and opponents get about 10 more FT shots a game when Utah is on the road........
It makes a big difference.
DD
mavs need to win both against NO, a split is no good and we will need to really on Utah to drop a few more games....Beat NO twice and your the 6th seed
