A win here would almost make the losing streak worthwhile.

I'm actually going to be stunned if the team doesn't pull out a major effort performance.

I expect major effort as well, but they are not yet far enough removed from the absolute shambles of the last 6 games, in terms of both execution AND effort being sub-par.
Any other team, even a Boston or Miami, and I'd be not-so-surprised by a Mavs win. I just see Kobe & crew coming in here with a mind to wreck shop and the Mavs aren't ready yet.

Lakers are expecting the Mavericks' best shot.
I think getting a good start will be key, even if we come back to regular surrender double-digit lead mode, because it will atleast get the team a groove which hasn't had a groove since Christmas or so..

Over the six-game losing streak, the Mavericks have averaged just 89.9 points and shot 44.1% from the field. Opponents have averaged 101.8 points and shot 48.7% from the field against the Mavericks. To further show the shooing woes, Dallas manged just 18 first quarter points in the loss at Detroit on January 17. It marked the third straight game they recorded fewer than 20 points in the opening period and they fell to 1-6 on the year when they fail to score 20 points in the first.

I think people are freaking out a bit too much. Dirk has been back for a game and a half. The team was in total suck mode while he was gone. Give them a couple of games to crawl out of the fetal position. Their savior is back... Last game, they were probably too busy basking in his glory... It's hard to contribute on the court when you're that distracted by greatness.

Sure, I hope for a win. But if the Mavs play like they did against Detroit, it's gonna be a blowout. However, a win against LA would make that losing streak almost completely disappear and I would be pretty confident of starting another winning streak.

Hopefully the game doesn't turn out like this.
Awesome in the beginning then WTF? at the end.

Setting the table...
Quote:
The last time the Mavericks had a seven-game losing streak was from February 9, 1999 to February 19, 1999. That was the NBA's strike-shortened season. It was also the rookie year for Dirk Nowitzki and the first year Steve Nash was on the Mavericks. The team finished that year with a 19-31 record. It won't be an easy challenge to avoid their seventh straight loss as they go up against the Los Angeles Lakers. "They’re two-time champions now, they’re big, they’re strong and Bryant is a great player," Coach Rick Carlisle said. "You’ve got to look at (Pau) Gasol now as a legitimate really great player in this league. They’re deep and they shoot the three well, they have the right compliments to their really good players. So, they’re always tough to play."
It is all about perspective. Despite the six-game losing streak, the Mavericks have the exact same record as they did last season at this point, 26-14. Last season, the Mavericks were 27-14 at the halfway point of the season. The Lakers will be finishing a stretch of three games in four nights. They played a back-to-back against the Clippers on Sunday (loss) and Oklahoma City on Monday (win).
The two-time defending champion Los Angeles Lakers make their first visit of the season to the American Airlines Center on Wednesday evening. The Lakers have won eight of the last 10 meetings with the Mavericks, but the Mavericks took the most recent meeting in Dallas on February 24, 2010. The Mavericks will be looking to continue making use of the home cooking as they have defeated the Lakers five out of their last eight times on their home floor. The Lakers had won three straight at American Airlines Center before the Mavericks took the final game of last year’s season series.

I think I tweeted it but didn't mention in to the set-up piece.
Sasha is due for a decision on staying or go. Carlisle and Donnie said that the situation is tomorrow's situation and the Lakers are today's situation. Based on what I hear though, I'd be fairly surprised if he doesn't get a second 10-day contract.

Sounds good. Need him vs. LA's length. Although honestly, Haywood is better suited to guard Bynum (Ty struggles vs. the big centers like Marc Gasol, Bynum, etc.)
Of course that involves Wood giving a damn, which he doesn't.

Chandler probably feels better because he infected someone else.

I was wondering and thinking that with TC new found jump shot we should go to a lineup like this at times
PG: J Kidd
SG: Jason
SF: Tyson
PF: Dirk
C: Hayywood
