Mavs vs. Nuggets Gameday Thread

[Novice#41]

woo hoo !

let's force another "W"




GOOO MAVS !

[seelenjaeger]

Guess we´ll get this one, 2nd night of a doubleheader for the Nugz.

117-98

[sike]

Mavs grab this one in the third.....and pull back....we get to see JHo and MDaniels....and hopefully Best can drag himself out of this funk...

103-90.

[Maringa]

It seems like (recently) that every game against the Nuggets is an ugly, hard fought game. The Nuggets won last night, and hopefully they are tired. Sometimes, however, teams tend to put out their best effort when they have a lot of factors against them. I hope Dallas doesn't play down to their level...

Dallas 99, Denver 97.

Sweets reports that the Mavs have yet to lose when she attends, and they've only lost one preseason game to the 76'ers in '82 in when I've attended, I feel very confident about the W tonight. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Mavs 107
Nuggest 89

Woah! LRB has a lot riding on tonight....quite a record to keep up....the fingers are indeed crossed!

[Murphy3]

with as good of an offensive rebounding team as the Nuggets are, it makes absolutely no sense to put Najera into the stating lineup
He's one of the most abysmal defensive rebounders as far as PF's go in the history of the game.

[Murphy3]

nellie..thanks for screwing Mavs fans up the buttocks by starting Najera

I was thinking the same thing.

[Murphy3]

as soon as I say he hasn't been good defensively, he picks up a T on a three second violation

[Murphy3]

nash is on though
good to see

[mavs413]

wow!
Nash 4-4 from the 3 pt. land already. He's on fire!

[MavsFanFinley]

Mavs win, but it will be another ugly game.

Look out for Boykins. He will be hell on the Mavs tonight.

[ReDIRKulous]

Can Best handle Boykins at all? I read on Dallasbasketball.com someone saw Best in person and he is TINY. Is he tiny enough though?

[thewillis12]

Mavs: 116
nuggets: 95

this is gonna be a loose offensive game. the nuggets are gonna be too tired to run with the mavs and that will allow the mavs to play lazy defense. o and finely is gonna school carmelo tonight.

[u2sarajevo]

Mavs 102
Nugs 93

[dallas_esq]

Mavs 98
Nugs 90

[Dirk Nowitzki]

Mavs 109
Nugs 87
Nugs wont be able to hang long. Hopefully Shawn will get some minutes & force the Nugs to relly on the outside jumoer. With the hard fought win last night, those j's should be pretty flat tonight.

[bingocasino]

mavs 130
nuggets 112
walker triple double

Did Derek Harper just say that he was thankful that God gave his only "forgotten" son? I could have sworn that is what he said.

[mavs413]

Finley will play his natural SG position tonight.
Najera starting at Center.

[mavs413]

Najera blew a layup.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

Didn't cover [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Mavs by 13 according to Vegas.

[MavsFanFinley]

Mavs win 115-101.

Walker (40) 11-18, 2-5, 1-1, 25pts, 14rbs, 6as, 3to's, 1stl, 2blks

Dirk (39) 5-15, 1-2, 8-9, 19pts, 11rbs, 1as, 2blks

Najera (17) 2-6, 1-3, 5pts, 3rbs, 1stl, 1blk

Finley (34) 5-12, 2-4, 12pts, 1rb, 6as, 2to's, 1blk

Nash (35) 5-10, 4-4, 4-4, 18pts, 3rbs, 8as, 3to's, 2stls

Jamison (34) 10-16, 6-7, 26pts, 8rbs, 2to's, 2stls, 1blk

Howard (15) 2-7, 0-1, 4pts, 2rbs, 1as, 2stls, 2blks

Best (17) 0-1, 3as, 1to, 2stls

Delk (8) 2-3, 2-2, 6pts, 1rb, 1stl

Daniels (1) 0-1, 0-1, 1as

[kg_veteran]

However, I do not believe that your statement applies to the first half of the game

We'll just have to agree to disagree. Jamison played twice the minutes that he did on Thursday night. Some of those minutes came at Shawn's expense in both the first and second half.

[dirno2000]

Dirk is taking up the slack.

[MavsFanFinley]

How come Najera has taken 4 shots already?

[mavs413]

Dirk already has 5 boards, 4 mins into the game!

[dirno2000]

All but one of the shots were layups. One was an ill advised jumper.

[Murphy3]

Najera hasn't taken bad looks...besides the outside jumper.

he hasn't been effective defensively either though

[dirno2000]

Najera's knee it bothering him and it's affecting his playl

[MavsFanFinley]

Maybe Finley should stop shooting too.

[dirno2000]

Walker just found out how quick Carmello's 1st step is.

[FilthyFinMavs]

Great rebounding by Dirk but how do you miss a 2 handed dunk? Great pass by Walker. I can't believe he even got the pass through.

[MavsFanFinley]

Fin needs to stick with assisting (4 already) and get a leg up on rebounding since his shot is not falling.
