GDT: Mavs (14-5) at Bucks (10-9) 12/3/14
Bucks aren't awful. Biggest challenge, though, will be overcoming fatigue. Dirk not likely to play on second of a B2B, particularly after 2OT last night.
I was 4-0 on GDTs. 5-0 or do I finally drop one on this trap game. |

Tired legs from the starters, but the Mavs bench is just too good, so they will do most of the damage:
Mavs - 108 Ducks - 100

This is going to be a tough road game after last night's 2OT battle with Chicago... Gonna need our bench to step up big since our starters played 40+ minutes (not including Nelson).
At least the Bucks are also on the 2nd night of B2B.

Expecting a loss (due to fatigue), and not going to be upset about it and over react, unless there is just some pitiful playing by all or certain individuals that make some obscene bone headed plays that loses game at the last minute....

Tired legs, playing 2OT yesterday, last game of a road trip. Several reasons for a letdown, so let's hope it isn't.

Mark Cuban admits that the Mavs could have drafted Giannis Antetokounmpo

Thing is that it isn't just Giannis we could have drafted. K. Olynyk, J. Sullinger, G. Dieng, Terrance Jones, Perry Jones III etc. are all guys who we could have drafted. All of them are serious contributors to their teams.

We've had some decent talent here. Tough to develop them when your GM and coach want vets who know how to play and make fewer mistakes. |

Na, for special talent you have to take some risk too.
Remember the Spurs traded as win-now team George Hill to Indiana for their pick because they wanted to draft Leonard at #15 |

It seems like the circumstances are not favorable to either team, as the Bucks suffered a crushing 3-point loss at Cleveland yesterday. So it's kind of a trap-game for both teams.
Ersan Ilyasova should be out, which should be good for us, but you never now... |

Lawl Bucks. Dirk healthy enough to drop a double-double against a real team. "Injured" against the Bucks.

Well he had back issues allready since the warmup in Chicago.
Maybe we can sneak another win...but i played allready the Bucks +4.5 spread because i was expecting Dirk to get the night off |

Glad Dirk isn't playing. Playing 42 minutes with a hurt back is unreal for his age. I imagine it was a chore to get out of bed this morning.
Should be an interesting game. Our bench better be HUGE. A loss is understandable, but a win would be awesome. Plus I hate Orange Juice Mayonnaise. Also, just how early in this game do the refs start trolling Monta? |

That's another way to look at it. I still clinge to the hope that, for these young bucks, this missed opportunity of a statement win in LBJ's house dampened their spirits enough to not be quite ready to deal with the ordinary business of fending off a Western Conference powerhouse at home on the next day. Maybe not exactly a classic trap game situation, but considering their record and the Mavs coming of a 2OT game, neither is it for us. Anyway, I'm not ready to see your GDT-streak come to an end just yet and hopefully the active Mavs players feel the same about their win-streak. Go Mavs! |

Ellis is really good at the hesitation/change-of-pace play. Too bad he's either 0 or 11.

Yeah, Milwaukee was the default stream. The announcers aren't the worst, but they are pretty uneducated and say some pretty stupid stuff.

Parsons schools AT-Mutumbo one one side and then schools him on drawing fouls on the other side.

Parsons has kept us in the game the last few plays.

Mavs actually in it, despite Bucks shooting 55%/67%/83% against us, having more rebounds, fewer TOs, and more FTA.

This is Parsons' game to lose. We need him to come up big and he'll have a chance.
