    Howard out 2 weeks, 6 to 7 games. We absolutely need to start clicking.

    Dallas choked. They turned a 15 point first half lead into an 18 point loss. Clippers are good. They are even deeper and have better players than the Mavs. Nowitzki will be defended differently this year and he will not have a big yeat. Brand is a better player because he works on the block.

    Mavs will hopefully be 0-5 after tomorrows game against the Suns. Too bad there has to be a winner in the Mavs-Suns game since I hate them both.

    When a team coming from last final has a 0-4 open, it won no more than 41 games.

    Mavs, not to think about winning more than Rockets but to think about playoff in reality.

    There isn't much to hate about the Suns. They play beautiful basketball.

    OTOH, Dallas -- I revel in their misery.

    Luckily, Diaw, Kurt Thomas and Boris Diaw didn't play big minutes against San Antonio. They should be fresh for the back-to-back.

    Jalen Rose should get a few more minutes after playing 5 minutes and watching the team play.

    Nash only played 34 as well, which is decent.


    I think the Mavs are going to go down 0-5. Raja Bell and Barbosa can handle those SG minutes together.

    Marion is a machine, he never gets tired.

    They will be looking to beat Dallas as they lost to San Antonio.

    Dirk played 42 minutes and Terry played 40. Stack also played 37 minutes.

    This is beginning to look good. NO ONE can tell what could happen to the Mavs if they go down 0-5. The psychological effect could do anything to them.

    Mavs are going to struggle to get over this. What's happening is that Don Nelson's offense is wearing off and gone, while Avery is a defensive coach who has horrible defensive players. Now Josh Howard is down two weeks. 5 more games. If they go 2-3 in those games (optimistic considering how they're playing), they will be 2-7 after 9 games. Hopefully by then we'll be 7-3, and the Mavs will feel the pressure. NO/OKC are already doing well, and so are San Antonio.

    Good game for TMac tonight. Hopefully, he's builting up some confidence and momentum. Rockets can continue to roll at home with the Knicks up next. Pound it down low to the big man everytime baby.

    The Mavs could go 0-5, and hell, the way Portland is playing lately, they could go 0-6. We definitely want to build some space between them and us, because you figure they'll turn things around eventually.

    A lot of good teams are sucking this year and the only thing that changed is the NBA Ball. I hope the power shifts toward Houston. I hate dallas so i hoope they continue their streak.

    Dallas is going to get everybody's A game because of the success they had last year however they are capable of going on a long win streak and they will figure out what they are doing and turn it around. We don't see them again until mid January at their place so hopefully we slap 'em around again and drink their beer and put our feet on their coffee table and just abuse the hell out of 'em. They are such a soft ass team and their getting their ass kicked right now!

    Mavs is still a good team, I think.
    But they are no longer the top 2 or 3 teams in the League in this season.
    Dirk is a good shooter, however, just a shooter.

    The Mavs are giving up a tremendous amount of points so far the season- 97 to the Spurs, 107 to the Rockets, 107 to the Warriors and 103 to the Clippers last night. Looks like they went back to their old habits - the Allas Mavericks.

    I think they really need a good defencer just as Battier or Bowen or Artest.
    You have to get some right players to play defence on the court for the coach.Stackhouse?...
