If the Mavs were in the East, they be in the ECF

Man your boys are up 22, Dallas doesn't have enough time left to slow the tempo and pick OKC apart. They gotta let the bombs go.

Oh I have no doubt. Theyd give Miami a hard time too, everything just fell apart at once for them with back to back up in the air losses.

With how the first two games turned out, I thought the Mavs would at least make it a contest this week if not win (or even take both home games). Kind of surprising, but I guess they really are overmatched this year.

Hopefully this makes Cuban open his wallet more than he thought. Need more than just Deron.

I just don't trust us holding any lead. They just get lazy until they're within 5.

Seriously?


well, he wouldn't have gotten more playing time with Sessions and Blake getting most of the minutes...he has gotten more open looks due to Westb and Durant getting the attention.

Don't forget the "while getting jobbed by the officials" part.

Just kidding. Sort of. Where did this pro mavs foul count come from?

I am kidding. The whole Mav fan impersonation thingy.

If Dallas doesn't get Howard, maybe they will go for Ibaka if OKC prefers to keep Harden rather
