Game 74: Dallas Mavericks (35-38) vs. Orlando Magic (35-38)

It was an incredible ending.  Reeves bending over after the final shot was the picture of the game.    Not often Bron chokes.


Yea, Coby is ballin'.  Bulls playing themselves out of a top lottery chance as well.  A few weeks ago, I thought the Mav's would win the next game, but now not so sure.   If the Mav's could have won the games they should have, Pacers and Sixers, they would be fighting for a 7 seed right now.   I hope AD and Washington play tomorrow as well.

Well, it's nice to see that at least one fan doesn't care that we aren't getting Cooper Flagg.

Of the Mavs' remaining schedule, the Bulls game, the two Clippers games, and the Lakers game (yes, even that - Luka's revenge game) are losses. Probably also the Grizz, too, if they have a chance at the 4 seed. There's no way the Mavs can lose against Brooklyn or Toronto. Atlanta is the question mark. So the Mavs are looking at a 38- or 39-win season - way too high for a team that quite desperately needed a serious chance at the top of the lottery. Absolutely every single iota of need and desire to make the play-in should have gone completely out of existence with Kyrie's injury.
