Obviously one of key games in the rest of the season. Sacramento is a very good team with dynamic scorers, good center and excellent wing shooters. It will take an A Mavs and Luka game to win this one, imho. Sacramento will probably try to hide Sabonis on either PJ or DJJ, so corner shooting will likely be very important. Mavs need to bring best defense from the start.

Achilles soreness. Fuck fuck fuck fuck motherfuck motherfuck fuck fuck fuck...

Play it safe, with the remaining schedules we only really need a split in the remaining games against the Kings and we have another two days off after this

They need to win both games in Sac. Kings won both games in Dallas. A split won't help them.

Sacramento has a much tougher remaining schedule (3rd toughest remaining in the league). A split would help, sweeping the two would be better but a split isn't the end of the world because we'd still likely finish with a better record in that case.

A split will help. They’ll be tied the rest of the way. No tiebreaker but maybe an easier schedule.

Can't get caught up with the schedule, even if it appears easy. As soon as you do that, you'll get bit. Ask Phoenix who lost a game they should have won.

Ask Kevin Durant what happened when he tried to play on a sore Achilles against the Raptors in the Finals. 

I'm seeing Luka will play anyway, hopefully we have better luck than that, and we'd better win

Good to see PJ’s three ball dropping. They’re even running pick and pops for him.

Pretty good quarter, all things considered. The lead would be bigger had they not lost a few of those 50/50 balls towards the end.

Really good to see shots falling for Washington and Hardaway.

Lively looks a little off on offense so far, but is playing WELL, defensively.
