Just got into town, and I'll be there tonight.
Dallas lost last night, which is good in the sense that they may be worn out, but bad in the sense that it's far less likely they'll let themselves lose now.
But at least it can't possibly be as bad as the last time we played them.

The Mavs are on a 5-game losing steak. And they played a game yesterday. So, it's a B2B for them. I hope we can win tonight. But if they show anything like they did in the NOH game, we are going to lose badly.

Smart starts Greene at the 4. Hmm, due to the Dirk match up?

Grant must be thinking "shut up Bill!"
edit: I think it's only up to the first half

Guessing no Hassan or Hayes for "matchup" reasons tonight huh? Good to see Smarts answer to a 6'11", 6'10", 7" lineup is Salmons, Evans, and Thomas. Getting murdered is about to be an understatement.

Smart heard you. Hayes on Dirk.

LOL the Mavs forgot Hayes was on the floor. Easy lay up for him.

He would look good with a contender team.

Wow, finally saw it.... the lineup I've been longing for! Evans, Thornton, Garcia, Hayes, and Cousins...and it looked good! C'mon Smart, use your head, realize it!
If you don't notice the difference defensively with Cousins and Hayes together you need your eyes checked. I've figured out why this team looks so much better inside, they both understand positioning and help defense. They know when to hover, when to commit, and both have the tools to guard more athletic players.

Yeah, the Kings.

If Smart doesn't recognize the potential with that Evans, Thornton, Garcia, Hayes, and Cousins lineup, the Kings should regret picking up that option. That could be a great two way, two style unit in time. You've got slashing, shooting, defense, rebounding, post play, and some weakside shot blocking from Cisco. The team looks so much better when they start the offense in the high post. Even did it with Cousins on one play, finally! So much potential with that unit.

Yeah, I want to see more of that lineup too.
Garcia is really playing well as of late. He made some big defensive plays on Dirk in the first half.

Yes! We are actually playing as a TEAM! 16-3 is the assist/turnover ratio for the Kings!!

We're playing so good right now, probably the best we've played all season, but...we gotta give the starters a rest soon. 4 minutes left in the 3rd, please do not put the entire bench in the same time Smart....
