Another AD sighting opportunity! Oh and Naji Marshall about to drop 20+10+10.

Suns lost, tied with the Mavs now.
Kings host the trailblazers today also.
Upcoming stretch of 4 winnable games will decide the season, if they can't gain ground in these 4 games, it'll be tough to make it.
Defense wins draft lotteries!

Read somewhere that Mavs now are in the 9th spot.

They were briefly, until the Kings game ended.
What an ugly game this was, Mosely's magic faded, team can't score to save their lives.

Funny how the Lakers lost to these guys the other day.

And now the same team can't make shots.

AD said him getting back was to get his rythym and his legs under him again. So we'll get these games.

Banchero 35 pts. Wagner 20 pts. How they lost, I have no idea.

If Wagner scores in the 30 range, this would have been a Mavs loss.

Hardy& Dinwiddie are our worst nightmares... Bad players who step up in must L games.

Players don't tank. You need to put in the bench players to tank like Toronto did the other day.

Hardy and Dinwiddie ARE the bench players that shpuld be doing the supposed tanking. Our starters are mostly out. Ideally you have guys like Omax at center and Dwight Powell at PG to tank. But choices are limited with this group.

Hardy and Dinwiddie are perfect tank commanders, just sometimes they have great shooting nights unfortunately.

I've given up on the tank. 2 things need to happen, Mavs have to keep losing, and the bad teams below need to keep winning. Mavs are down to 8 players and are still winning games. That's the most handicapped handicap the Mavs will ever get. Next would be to forfeit games on purpose by having 5 players or less.

Yeah. As much as I'd hate it, I think Nico goes for KD this summer.
