OKC actually has more talent than we do. I would trade any two Mavericks not named Dirk for Westbrook.

Its just they go such long stretches without scoring and Memphis had a ton of wide open shots they just missed.

I actually think we have a good chance to lose tomorrow but in the end I think we pull it out.

No cable at the house tomorrow... gonna have to catch it some other way.  Mavs in 6. alot of people still rooting against us but we're on a mission. 8 more! OKC is real good and real fast but i think our bench stays consistent and comes up big for us again this series.  hopefully kidd's legs are fresh and he has another "game 1 vs. portland" tomorrow.  mavs in a close one tomorrow

We need him as a scorer, it's just whether we can afford it or not.

Caron deserves some respect. He's played great in the limited time we've seen him.

Having a two-way player like him is key, IMO. He's 31 right now. 31 is the new 27.

<---- didn't get that memo

I hope James Harden goes off. He seems one of the more efficient players on the Thunders.

I want them outta here as fast as possible. We old and we need to rest for Chicago.

And you need to keep your mouth shut..

Be humble, or else when we lose, people going to be all over us.

We ain't losing man, at least not this round. If we were playing Memphis I'd be as quiet as a church mouse and Chicago same thing.

These dudes though.

They an appetizer.




i have to agree with you on this. i dont see the MAVS losing against OKC. im ready for this series to start.

i think it was barkley to say
"both teams have a factor that the other team cannot stop"

i.e. Dirk and the PF/C spot vs the Wetbrook + Durant Pg/SF spot

i would like for Perkins to do better offensively but hands down Chandler is the reason why the Mavericks made it this far in regards to a rebounding Center.

Let's get it Dallas!!!

Going to be a tough series but I don't see us dropping game 1 at home with the time to practice and OKC coming off 7 games.

We must protect our house!!!

[h3]Durant Shooting 32 Percent When Defended By Stevenson[/h3]
May 17, 2011 10:31 AM EDT

Since Kevin Durant entered the league four seasons ago with the Seattle SuperSonics, he has struggled from the floor against Dallas. That changed this season. He made 33-of-63 shot attempts -- which is quite impressive considering he was just 6-of-20 from 3-point range (making him 27-of-43, 62.8 percent on 2s) -- and averaged 29.3 points in the three games.

However, with DeShawn Stevenson guarding him, Durant was just 6-of-19 (31.6 percent) from the floor, leaving him 27-of-44 (61.4 percent) against everyone else. ESPN Stats and Information research reveals that Durant went 5-of-9 against Marion and 4-of-7 against both Caron Butler and Kidd.

Unless he (Stevenson) starts hitting every three he takes, he's not getting anywhere near 20 MPG this series.

Are you trying to be snark and sarcastic?

Yes.

Just like Collison/Serge will be on Dirk, it's a joint effort to stop Westbrook.
