He can handle it, it's not like he played heavy minutes tonight.

POG: JJ Barea in Roddy's Debut

So does anyone else find it kind of odd that NONE of our starters have even shot 1 FT tonight?

I noticed that looking at the boxscore, but I didn't feel like we were getting a raw deal watching the game.

Haywood gets his double double thanks to Mahimni fouling out hahaha.

With 8 payers in double digits and only 1 player more than 14 points, there better damn well be a team option on the list this time. All 8 of them shot abiove 45% and 2 had double-doubles (Haywood, Barea). The one that scored more than 14 was Kidd at 20. No one played more than Kidd's 28 minutes.

Roddy's debut was about what I expected...a little better, actually. His timing is off on both sides, and he made a few passes that struck me as "practice court" passes (they work in practice but not at game speed), but I'd forgotten how smooth he is moving to the basket. For a guy who hasn't played in almost a year, I thought Roddy did pretty well.

Stevenson's becoming trash at the right time.

Roddy surpassed my expectations. I had him down for 7pts, 3asts, and 10 mins max. He had 13pts, 6asts, and 21mins. Can't wait for tmrw!

Y u got to hate on Stevenson? He's been nothing a professional here in Dallas. I know his role is going to be limited, but who knows we might need his D sometime down the road.

When Stevenson hits a shot again, let me know. Until then, he resembles the player he's been for three years more than the guy he was the first three months of this season. If he doesn't hit shots, he's the odd man out, professional or not.

Amen, he is our Bruce Bowen minus the flying kicks to the face and throwing his feet under peoples ankles.

I guess I missed by a little bit. Hope we continue to see this type of team and personal performance from mavs guards. Has a guard centric team ever gone far in the finals.

Roddy was way better than I expected in his first game back. I feel very optimistic right now.

I keep having visions of a Roddy-Marion-Chandler fast break for dunks, over and over. 8-)

Life is good.

He's closer to Greg Buckner than Bruce Bowen.

Yup. Stevenson's D is no where near the level Bowen's was nor is it as versatile as Bowen's in terms of position he could defend. He is D is much closer to Buckner who was at Stevenson's level of D and only really effective against the 2 guard.

And professional or not, he knows he is a filler in a trade and if he is not "professional" we would trade him that much faster.
