Love and Marion are sitting out.

I had no idea Brendan Haywood was on the Cavs, lol.
Heat had Damps when Lebron was on the Heat now the Cavs have Haywood. :lol:

Dress rehearsal for the Mav's prospective starting-5 looks good.

Defense is a little weird but OK for now. The Mavs are playing a TON of zone defense. I can't imagine this will go on for the entire season...

I hope Carlisle can integrate Tyson into the offense, I can't tell if his defense is good or not because of the zone.

I like Nelson so far, it's a nice change of pace that a PG can actually drive and dish.

Parsons getting aggressive, his shot not there though.

O/T: Was it just me or does LeBron look a little old? I know it's pre-season but his drives to the basket lack the lift and explosion he's known for.

Mavs played zone all game long. Lebron probably have 2011 flashbacks :lol:

Well he doesn't have any hair so that's a sign .. I don't think it's him getting old I think more like he got of the steroids so he would be clean when they start testing .

Really liked Nelson ... We still lost the PG battle but Nelson held his own and put up a pretty good fight .. I think people are going to be in for a surprise on how good Nelson is this year .


Nelson will shoot .400+ from Three this year probably closer to .420 3P%

Return to Dallas Mavericks
