They won an intense match against Clippers so I think they will be a bit more relaxed against us after that.

This six game homestand is brutal. It includes the Celtics, Sixers, Bucks and Nets. Also the Cavs, but they have played well at times. They have lost a number of games as of late after sweeping Brooklyn but that included the Bucks, Clippers, Lakers and Celtics and they play the Bucks again next. We also play the Magic who had a nice start but then got hit with the injury bug and went on a pretty bad streak....basically have struggled since Fultz season ending injury. They did just win with Vucevic scoring 43 and grabbing 19 boards though.

Good time for a six game winning streak.

Jaylen Brown out for tomorrow's game is huge.

I think the Mavs should have a superior roster compared to Boston if Brown/Smart are out. We should be favored here.

Oubre and Baynes should definitely give our bench a boost.

Lets make it seven. Brooklyn is the last game...we already have 1 under our belt.

I just saw KD is out for 3 games but should be back next Friday...should be fully ready for their game against us.

No, but that does remind me...I need to find a good luck charm...maybe the same girl as the last game..different pic perhaps.

I'll do a double since both brought us some success

It's like Where's Waldo, but not with Waldo.

Couple of things:
Who is the special guest if not Valdo? Can't find.
Would bang, sleeve tatto or not. 10/10
If we still play Jones instead of Smith I'm officially loosing my sht. I just watched the replay of Nuggets/Kings during lunch (in europe), and I was weeping when Haliburton hit 2 clutch 3's, and set a new career high after he got his previous career high last game against Boston. What a clusterfk of a draft/offseason again. Couda-shouda-wouda while JJ is our gm. But hey, our floor was raised, and he got his guy, price be damned.

We'll probably beat all those tough teams and then get blown out by the Cavs.

Couda been 1st rather than 4th in the west if not for Jones ? Who's that genius of a GM that Sarver could have brought in ?

Both Haliburton's skinny body and ugly shot will get exposed. Don't think he'll be seen as a great miss once the other players figure out his weaknesses.

Not gonna argue this much, as I know I'm in the minority here. Most are just happy as a pig in sht to make the playoffs after 10 years hiatus. I'm happy too. The team is good, I truly believe we have a good chance to make the 2nd round.

I'm just not a fan of most of JJ's moves - when we are taking into consideration what was/would have been (by reports) and should have been available (by pure logic and some guessing). I know this sounds a bit confusing, but I'm sure it can be understood.

Would we be better with Haliburton & Wood than with Smith & Crowder?
