Please don't mention Duncan and injury in the same sentence.
Thanks.![]()
Too bad for the dirk and mavs, especially in late March.
the diff with the rox-ming and mavs-dirk, is that the rox were beating 500 ball clubs b4 ming was hurt. Dallas was not beating 500 clubs with dirk as of late. It will be tough for them to stay in the hunt.
Tim Duncan should be very careful, the injury-fairy is coming after Texas' big men!!
hopefully dirk did not have any soft-tissue injuries in the knee. All ankle=quick heal for dirk, so maybe it won't be so bad.
Maybe now terry and j.howard will step it up.
good luck mavs fans
btw, I wonder if the analysts will stress when the opposing team has players out and completely forget the mavs are without dirk......you know the yao-out treatment. Yes, the mavs get dirk back this season, but hopefully there is something left for him to go back to.(postseason wise)

no prob, but I just thought, of all big men, why texas? Garnett is out there, heck Mr. Injury-Shaq too.........
Can they have any sort of estimate without MRI results? Or is this just a case of Cuban shooting his mouth off?
They always say the same thing without an MRI - high ankle sprain. Even if that's the case, we won't stay ahead of Denver without him for two weeks. Best to keep our pick we sent to Jersey.
At this point, I just hope it's nothing serious like what happened to Chris Webber, nothing long term.
If the MRI confirm that it's only a ankle sprain, I wouldn't be surprised to see Dirk coming way before these two weeks. He has an ability to come back quickly from ankle sprains.
If Dirk comes back in two weeks or less, I think Mavs will make the playoffs.
It looked bad, but not that bad....his foot was not bent too far to one side etc.....and Dirk has a history of coming back fairly quickly....
Hopefully he will not be out that long......
As a Rockets fan I know how hard it is to lose your best player......no team deserves that.

Saw on Channel 5 last night that he was walking on it some after the game. The guy is a freak. His blood contains the cure for cancer, but doctors won't farm it.
I hope they can weather this before he comes back. I'd hope for him to return for the April 2nd game v. GS at home. Some tougher matchups before then, but I think they still show up well.
But this will certainly give Avery a chance to see what he has on his bench and who can contribute. This time without Dirk will be a time for guys to audition for next season or to see who they can lean on, should they make the playoffs.
I don't think it looked all that bad.....certainly painful but it didn't really twist or turn sideways that much.
I think he comes back sooner than people think....at least I hope he does for the sake of the Mavs fans.
No one wants a Yao Ming type of injury on a star player.

too bad cause I really wanted the Rockets to meet the Mavs at full strength and take them to school even though we don't have Yao.
