versus

Let's see what the newly improved Mavs can bring to the table against the red-hot Thunder.
Is OKC going to continue where they left off?

Thank you BIG EDDIE. Saved me some work.

I read that Butler and Haywood haven't practiced much with the team. Dallas seems very dependant on the system so hopefully we can catch them napping and take our 7th straight!

First of all, let me say that your Mav pics are classic. However, it will mean nothing once we start laying the smack down on that candy a.... No, seriously, I am looking forward to seeing how our new guys do. I still think if we do our normal job on Durant, we should be ok.

Obviously the story line of this game is the Mavs new players and how quickly they will assimilate in to the team. I think we should be able to catch them a little bit off-beat and pick up a win before they get adjusted to the new changes. Hopefully Durant and Westbrook pulling double-duties over all-star break left them refreshed and confident heading into part II of this season

hopefully the break didn't cool us off.

bad quarter... durant already with 10 shots, alot of them forced. Green was looking good against dirk and only got on shot, and krstics shot was off.

defense was solid at times but slips for easy buckets every now and then

Great thread Big Eddie!

KD has been off tonight.

OzThunder · Post #10 » by **OzThunder** » Wed Feb 17, 2010 2:52 am

harden and green have been real solid for the last 3-4 games

WOW what a 3rd!

Is Dallas throwing up a little in their mouths? Caron Butler's looked ridiculous.

This is the best defense we've played all year. Carrying over from the Portland game. Dallas is getting VERY FEW open, uncontested shot attempts, and almost all of them are jump shots. Tremendous effort by everyone.

hahah

they are out of sync that is for sure - good for us, but they will get it together soon enough. :S

KD really wants his 25 tonight :S

Post #17 » by **slick_watts** » Wed Feb 17, 2010 3:12 am

He's forcing some offense but also missing some wide open shots.

Clangus · Post #18 » by **Clangus** » Wed Feb 17, 2010 3:16 am

Harden has been great lately. Lets hope he has a KD-esque post all star break surge!

Durant is running out of time...hope he gets a 3 point play.

Post #20 » by **slick_watts** » Wed Feb 17, 2010 3:29 am

I hope he doesn't get it. He's forcing shots and I think it's because of the streak. Just let it end..
