I was sooo looking forward to this game. But what we saw in the first half is VERY difficult to watch.

Mavericks are probably not the team to beat in the West. That title still belongs to Denver. BUT we are undoubtedly the team no one wants to see in the playoffs.

Post: RE: Game 68 Dirkie: Who will win?

Lu-Ky for the dirkie! The last 26 seconds from those 2 is a perfect example of why we are the best in the league in clutch games and why we are a threat in any playoff game or series.

It’s ridiculous that Hardaway is leading the team in shots taken at 11. There is no way he should ever have more shots than Luka or Kyrie. It’s one thing if he was hot and making shots but this is a...

If a trade is coming, now is the most beneficial time to do it. With a 7 game homestand there will be plenty of practice time to incorporate the new guy whoever he is.
