GDT: game 43 - Clippers (30-13) at Mavs (27-15) 7:30 NBATV
Clippers come to Dallas for some home cooking.
Mavs had floundered at .500 for 16 games before winning 4 in a row of late (all easy games, however). Clippers are one of the hottest teams in the NBA at 7-2
Injury report
Porzingis - knee- questionable
Broekhoff - broken leg - out at least one more month
George - hamstring - out
Harkless - back - will play

the ONLY NBA game to be played today - I'm sure other players from around
the league as well as media will be watching.
We did not play our best against them last time 114-99 loss around Thanksgiving
and Luka had 22 pts on 4-of-14 shooting, 8rebs and 6 assists AND 7 turnovers.

Tough matchup for Luka given the defenders they can throw at him. Hope KP can play and show out...his knee is getting more worrisome by the game...

After going through the entire practice today, Porzingis sounded like he's going to play Tuesday against the LAC. He said: "I felt great out there, full of energy. I'm ready to get back to work and help my team. I haven't talked to the medical staff. I would love to play."

This is the one team in the West I feel we have little to no chance to win a 7 game series in the playoffs against assuming both teams are healthy. While we got dominated in our 3rd meeting we should have beaten the Lakers twice. Clippers with that defense will give us problems every time we face them.

Honestly wouldn't mind sneaking into the playoffs at 6 or 7 and facing the Jazz (N/A) or Nugs (1-1) Lakers have shotblocking. Clippers have a solid defensive roster. Both teams are allowed to be overly physical with Luka.
I think we could hypothetically beat the Nugs, Jazz in 7 and I think we'd be the favorites to beat the Rockets, Grizz, and Thunder.

I could see the Mavs struggling to win a single playoff game against the Clippers. They just seem like a terrible matchup. Hope the Mavs give us a glimmer of hope tonight.

Got to mix things up on the Clips, don't be predictable. Don't have Luka bring up the ball on every possession, and run plays to get the ball back to him after bringing it up. Keep driving the lane and don't settle for high difficulty threes.

I'm happy to see him back on the floor. He looks like he's moving really well, too. Amazing such a big man can move like he can.

Players looking like Powell might be done for a while. Can’t be good. Non contact injury.

Damn, I hope that's not the case. He's not my favorite player, but he's a solid dude, and I hate to see anybody get any kind of injury much less something like an achilles rupturing. :-(

The pressure to trade for a center just went way up.

Well, Boban is going to get more minutes moving forward. Here's hoping he can continue doing what he's shown in limited minutes.

Watch how that lane shuts down for driving guards with Bobi in there. Also, him playing more will help limit KP's minutes imo.

With Powell gone and KP limited, we’re gonna be tight in rotations

Wow. Leonard committed a foul on the block, committed a foul on the dunk and got a free throw.
