Ugh this game could go either way.. Charlotte has played well lately. I hope the Big 3 can finally all be consistent and we can leave Charlotte with a win.

I wish we could get out of town with Okafur. I commented on a trade board about trying to get him here.

Wow, Charlotte's defense looks horrendous first few minutes. Mavericks offense running VERY smoothly.

Oh and, this crowd is DEAD.

EDIT: My god, I don't think I've ever seen the Mavericks Centers score so many points in the first quarter.

Dampier picked up 2 quick fouls but Diop has come in and played very well.

OK I love Josh and I know he starts the team...but does anyone else wish he would pass more and be more selective about his shots?

Diop looks great so far... Hope that keeps up while Damp isnt playing. NO BASS TONIGHT! :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

You don't like Bass Dirkforpres?

Anyways they're going to probably heat up so we need Dirk and Devin to step up.

That was a beautiful JET-Stack play off the rebound, and a nice jumper from Trenton.

Mavericks playing with a lot of hustle tonight, just need to keep the TO's down.

Bass sucks. He's a great rebounder and a terrible dunker, unfortunately he always tries to go up with the ball after a rebound and gets blocked half of the time. Brandon, pass the ball out! Anyways, Juwan isnt playing too bad tonight though, so I hope Avery gives him some of Bass's minutes if this keeps up.

Stackhouse out for the rest of the night with that right hamstring.

too bad, but maybe a blessing in disguise. Josh is keeping us afloat

Horrible 5-point swing to end the quarter, other than that the Mavericks have played very well. Luckily Devin scored a layup at the end.

I'd like to see more Hassell/George tonight, especially since Stack is out.

Josh Howard with a great FIRST half, nothing new.

I dont know how I feel. Nobody outside of Josh is doing much and this game could very much end up like the Wiz one if we don't play lockdown D and if Dirk can't hit anything.

Glad to see Devin putting in some work in this half, but our defense dropped horribly from the frist quarter, Jason, Emeka, and Gerald are all killing us.

Harris taking over for us
