Why didn't the team wait and fly out today around Noon?

They could've slept in their own beds...get to the airport late morning...fly out at Noon and still arrive in Charlotte between 3-4...get to the arena by 4:30...quick shoot around, and then play the game.

Seems like flying the red-eye is a serious set up for disaster...at least if the NBA/ESPN scheduling Gods are going to screw you, then give it back to them.

Or they could say the heck with this, and send out the NBDL team to play in the Mavs place.

Hopefully, we can an upset victory for the Mavs tonight!!!
