Rondo left the 4th quarter and didn't return; down Parsons also. Mavs shot 54 FT's and made 39

 

Jae Crowder taking shots at Dallas:

Since joining the Celtics in mid-December,Jae Crowder has fit right in, with the city and the team.
"I think my work ethic and the way I approach the game really fits the city, really fits what the organization and the city really prides itself on. I respect being here, and I take the utmost pride in putting on the Celtics uniform each and every night," he said, per the Boston Herald.

Crowder is a free agent following the season, but he sounds like he's found a place to stay.

As a basketball player, that’s what you want,” Crowder said. “You don’t want to be in a situation where you feel you’re held back. ... I can score. I can make plays. I don’t think I’m a guy who just sits in the corner, but I was forced to do that in Dallas. Here with Boston, I’m able to just make plays."

"A home is a home, and I feel like I’m at home here, so that’s a good start," he added.

They lost this one on purpose too

 

I was watching the Mavs broadcast during our last game with them and they showed Harris and Dirk having a heated argument, not sure if anyone else caught that.

Also Shaun Livingston punched Dirk in the dick tonight. It was pretty fantastic.

 

shaun livingston is still in the league?

 

yep and hes a pretty good backup PG

 

Are you living in a cave? Livingston has been in the rotation of the best team in the NBA.

 

So. Much. Cringe.

 

my bad i got mixed up in my head with Josh Childress. Dunno why lol

 

Great article on Rondo; thank God we didn't get him:

http://espn.go.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/12587848/old-questions-surface-new-dallas-mavericks-point-guard-rajon-rondo

 

That's an excellent and fascinating article. Shocked that ESPN came up with it -- I guess they punished the writer by telling him to NOT write about Steph Curry.

 

Good read, zeeshan. Rondo is clearly more trouble than he's worth. Honestly, I don't know if there's a single team in this league that would be a good fit for him. Maybe he should join a Chinese team and be the player/coach?

 

That was a good read. Didn't know he was such a pain in the ass. We have a more relax'ed free flowing/go with the flow offense so I'm thinking he wouldn't be so bad on the Rockets. McHale seems like a really good players coach so who knows, even being a major pain in the ass, he could of fit in here. Maybe not right away but I think it would be better than the Mavs.

 

Yeah, reading that, you would need a strong, smart coach, and Carlisle may be as good as it gets. Not sure where else it could work.

Can you imagine Rondo & Milkhair? I guess it could have worked since we don't actually have strict sets and Rondo could play floor general, but yeah, glad he's not here in any case.

 

just hope this thread title doesnt come back and bite us.
