    It's not out of the realm.

    And yes they will lose against the Hornets, who has dominated them since last season. Detroit is playing well of late.


    So if the O/U on Mavs wins in the next 14 was 4, you'd put $ on the under?

    Get the out.

    Or maybe the rest of the West got significantly better and the Mavs roster got older and tier?

    The team is . Their mentality is too, but bottom line, the roster is .
    Now I'm starting to lean towards this. Correct sir.

    This team is done....who wants an 8th seed only to get swept in the 1st round....i you think we can pull a Golden State then you are a in' idiot. We wont even make the playoffs, did you see our upcoming schedule. I predict the Mavs will go 3-11 in the next 14 games to close out March. They will be 39-35 heading into April. That equals lottery bound

    Suns have a pretty tough schedule this month too. March might not be kind to either.

    Exactly...and who is to blame for keeping these same assholes on this roster for season after season? George, Stackhouse and others would barely make the rosters of 90% of the teams in the league.

    why are you acting like that is impossible? are you watching the same team I am? They will put up some good fights against the top teams but fold like usual. Then factor in games like tonight against scrub teams.

    And why the do you feel the need to piss on our pity party. The Mavs are the joke of the league, at least the bottom feeders have some young talent, yet all you can do is start ty threads about other teams being flukes or post about how Mavfans should be content b/c "it is expected" "there are no good deals out there" blahblahblah.

    Yes I am watching the same team . A .600 basketball team that isn't that good, that only wins 30% of its games against good teams teams. 3-11 over the next 14 would be a .200 basketball team that wins 0% of its games against good teams. Not saying it's impossible, but it's not expected.

    And how the are the Mavs the "joke of the league"? That's an exaggeration.

    Of course all the bad teams have young talent. Cause they're bad teams, and thus got high draft picks. Doesn't mean all of those bad teams are gonna pan out. Yeah teams like the Thunder and Grizzlies have brighter futures than the Mavs.... but that's just the cyclical nature of the NBA.

    Well, with good management, young talent can go to any team, or the pickup of good role players. Mavs haven't done that in years.

    Young core talent is usually acquired through getting a high draft position.

    The Mavs actually have some decent young role players... no youth on the core though since they've consistently won 50+ games.

    And I really do think the core is the problem more than the bench. Howard, Terry, Nowitzki, and Kidd and Dampier is alright... but don't make an imprint on the game to the point that this team can be elite.

    Wright/Bass/Singleton/Barea/Green aren't a bad group of young role players. Guys like Mayo, Roy, Aldridge, Durant, James require a team to really suck in the first place.

    Green belongs in the D-league. Barea is a midget bonehead who can't play a lick of defense. Bass and Singleton are undersized PFs logging major minutes at C b/c Erika DampVagina can't stay on the floor. Wright is not that young and belongs on the bench.

    Barea Bass Singleton and Wright are giving decent role player production, they've all exceeded by expectations this year. Although indeed Wright as a starting SG is inadequate, and Bass/Singleton's minutes are due to Damp's incompetence.

    But yeah... it's the core really. We need Kidd to be what he was 2-3 years ago, but he isn't.

    We need Dirk to play at an MVP level, he isn't

    We need 06-07 J-Ho, he's gone.

    A scoring big man indeed would be appreciated, Damp isn't that though. And against any opponent where his marginal mobility creates a defensive mismatch, he gets little minutes due to his lack of offensive threat.

    And this team's 3-PT shooting sucks. The explosive offense of 2-3 years ago was due to great perimeter shooting.

    So yeah... gotta change the core... but it's hard to acquire young talent into the core when you're winning 50+ games.

    Meh, I dunno. This season of course for our beloved Mavs is lost.

    But really we shouldn't criticize the guts or heart of our beloved Mavs. It's not that, it's just a lack of pieces. I see the game tonight... I see poor rotations and lateral quickness leading to open jump shots for the Thunder. I see a jump shooting offense that stagnates when the jumpers don't fall due to a lack of scoring in the paint, slashing, or FTA's. Really this indeed has little to do with heart guts toughness, or whatever intangible people say a team is lacking when it loses in blowout fashion or to a lesser team, it's just... a lack of pieces, a mediocre roster, a jump shooting team not hitting its jumpers with marginal defense causing a gap to widen quickly. I feel saddened by the state of the beloved Mavs, especially on the heels of Wadegate in 2006 and the GS series in 2007, but people are too malicious in their criticisms of our boys in blue.

    Kidd gives great effort. He has heart. It just doesn't appear that way sometimes due to his lateral quickness declining and his inability to slash.

    Dirk. Appears disinterested sometimes I suppose, beloved Dirk's heart has been broken a many time

    Barea/Singleton- Barea's body isn't fit for basketball but he can be a solid backup PG in the future. A nice spark from time to time and gives good effort for our boys, despite his bball IQ and size deficiencies. Singleton is the consummate role player.

    Terry is having a fine year at age 31. I don't question the heart or guts of our beloved Terry either.

    Really the only player who such criticisms are warranted for is J-Ho.

    Just gotta hope the FO can exploit the recession in the off season with the appealing contracts of Stack and J-Ho, and either resign Kidd or acquire something from him in a sign and trade.

    Just searching for a beam of light

    Sold out New Orleans Arena, two days of rest, and a hot Hornets team that are prime to kick that ass.
