Loss, Westbrook is going to destroy us.

Blame the NBA/Stern for that.

This is going to be a close game, Mavs will storm back to tie the game in the 4th quarter but come short and lose by 6 points in the end.

Who is going to guard Westbrook?...

[ahonui06]

It's a shame that Carlisle is a terrible coach and loves playing smallball and zone.

Mavs need to play man all game today and just have Marion stick on Durant.

[crick]

I would start the game with Stevenson covering Westbrook. I would also like Carlisle to utilize DJ a little more than he does. If Barea and Terry cover Westbrook he will go for 40.

It's great to see RC start off with an isolation play to Butler against one of the top wing defenders in the NBA.

[ahonui06]

It's pretty sad that DeShawn is a better shooter than Butler

[ahonui06]

The Mavs are such a better team defensively with this starting 5 lineup.

It's an added bonus when Butler actually plays decent. He should definitely attack the basket though, instead of settling for these jumpers.

Are the OKC announcers serious? According to one of them Dirk has an ugly shot, and he's turning the ball over when pressured? Quality stuff.

He had that 1 bad pass that resulted in a turnover.
His 2nd turnover was whistled when a travel when he simply pivoted.

OKC announcers are homers anyway.

Mavs really need to stop this terrible 2-3 zone. They are so much better going man to man.

I know, they said that as a general opinion. Dirk has historically low turnover numbers among scorers. They have no idea what they talking about. I fear a bad loss tonight, hopefully i'm wrong like before the Atlanta game.

Dear God, JJ Barea just gets worse and worse.

[chrisjacob]

now i know why butler sucks in his jumpshot..in the past games i always saw butler jumpshoot with a man in his face. he keeps on shooting even theres a man on his face so the percentage of his shooting really goes down. he doesnt look for his open shot.

[chrisjacob]

I don't wanna see another Barea in the next quarter.i hope he gets injured or someting!!

His signature move is the contested 20 foot stepback jumper.

[chrisjacob]

but hes not stepping back????


effin BAREA 2-20 for the last 3 games

[MainEv3nt]

[peppersquared]

It's a layup drill for okc right now.
