Nope, Shaq isn't expected back until Friday 11/22. So that means he won't be in Dallas tonight. Other than kobe the Lakers are shooting something like 35% from the field. Dallas should have no trouble with the Lack a Shaq Lakers. Houston does have a great chance to end the streak. If Houston can't do it then I also think the Pistons have a great shot after what Dallas did to them last time. If Dallas gets past Detroit without losing then the Mavs could end up extending the record to 17 or 18 games.
Anyone catch Sportscenter tonight. They showed the best starts for teams the last 15 years, and low and behold it didnt even have the Rox as the number one team. Listed the Bulls and 12 wins in a row as the best start by a team. Sad.
