GDT Dallas Mavericks @ New York Knickerbockers (1/24/2010 - 12pm local/CST)

[tcat075]

omg...Singleton that was sick.

[NoTnERb]

this looks like the all star game!

[Underdog]

Looks like a Globetrotters game...

[mavErika]

BOOM!!!

[chumdawg]

I'm not sure there is any crap left to be kicked out of the Knicks.

Wow.

[Windmill360]

loll

[RareMilk]

I couldn't imagine drinking milk after any activity...

[92bDad]

WOW...now that's an arse kickin!!!

Does anyone have the Mavs record for widest margin of victory?

[xrobx]

wow our 3 point specialist matt carroll actually managed to make a 3!

[horse900703]

I hope we can play like today through out the reason.

[Sportstudi]

53 point lead... omg

[tcat075]

I love how our scrubs go into superstars in the only game where it doesn't matter, yet suck when are called upon in games. Seriously, EVERY jumper is going down, and EVERY drive is being finished strong.

[MaverickGermany]

That is no game anymore. It's an execution ...

[mavs777]

We suck

[92bDad]

So, did I hear that right...previous record is 45 against the Warriors in 85'

Today is a new record at 50 points!!! Just think about, we all witnessed Maverick History today!!!

[tcat075]

This game revealed a lot about our team...Kidd is the one bringing this team down. Without him we're awesome.

[horse900703]

29-15

[grandmasta8]

Ok...this was fun

[tcat075]

We outscored them 101-53 in the final three frames.

agree 100 percent. this and carroll should be the starting SG.

[Bayliss]

Carroll has been bringing more than what Howard has brought. Couldn't hurt....

[LetsGoMavs]

DOMINANCE. - thats how i love my Mavs

[tcat075]

Every player except Singleton (4-9) shot 50% or better.

Wish Roddy would have played a little better in the second half, basically forcing RC to play him, because right now I'm not sure that Carlisle feels as if he has to play him next game. He played really good early, but turned the ball over in the second half a lot (ended up with 5 TO's) and was only 1-3 from the field. I hope Carlisle still plays him, but I'm a little doubtful.

Yup. And we should hold Stern at gunpoint and force him to let us play the Knicks for all 82 games.

[monty55555]

Roddy's circus shot and Singleton's put back dunk were awesome.

[xrobx]

does anyone else notice how awesome gooden plays when he starts? i mean 15 points 18 rebs 2 blocks dude is a beast as a starter

[Lor20]

if you compute roddies numbers from today to 48 minutes he'd have had a quadruple double (including 10 TO :-P)

No rookies on the wood makes the game go good.

I'd also like to mention that I am sitting in section #41...foreshadowing some Dirk Nowitznessing?

Go MAVS!]

Lucky bastards!

[FiZth]

10 players with 3+ made shots and most bench boys points came from jumps shots. Yes Knicks defense was awful but everybody played with "I can make every shot" mentality, you don't see this from Mavericks everyday. I just hope Rick can now use more bench players next game against Milwaukee. When you don't give them now chance, then your plain simple stupid. Let's ride with this confidence or at least try to.

Anybody remember better Mavericks player +/- then Gooden's +41?

Let's narrow that down a bit. From the 6:30 mark in the 2nd until the 6:30 mark in the 4th, the Mavericks outscored the Knickerbockers 71-24.

Man...largest margin of victory in Mavs history--I started the GDT and only Chum reps me...this place has gotten sheisty! =P

That was a really fun game!

Some random notes from the game:

- First 6 points of the game from Gooden--he must want to stay in Dallas!
- Lots of Dirk fans at MSG. There were plenty of cheers when they announced him at the Garden...I guess MSG just likes a good show!
- Mavs fans from all around were chanting "WE WANT CAR-ROL" starting in the 1st quarter.
- Knicks fans were booing even before the start of the half.
- I moved up to the row behind the floor seats by the 3rd quarter.
- I must admit, I'm liking David Lee more and more. This guy has obviously worked very hard to get where he is. No hate here.
- Knicks fans are hilarious. Plenty of them were talking to me saying, "I'm a Knicks fan, but I'm a Mavs fan now!" (re-emphasizes that New Yorkers just want a good show)
- How dare Gallinari think he can guard Dirk...I saw Jeffries call a switch after Gallo got torched too many times in the 3rd. He did no better...
- I yelled "Crystal Taylor SUCKS!" and Dirk/Edjuardo started laughing.
- Tim Thomas still has it?
- Ttam Llaroc was unbelievable.
- Still surprised that Najera didn't get to see the court.
- GO MAVS!

[mavsfan1000]

Not looking good for Kidd if this is how we run our offense without him. I knew it was important to be an offensive threat at the point guard position. I miss Harris but Beaubois is showing some of those same skills. Wish Carlisle would play him more and Kidd less.

[grndmstr_c]

I'm going to post something here because I can't stand for post #193 to be the last word in this thread.

[sike]

wow, New York is bad.

[dude1394]

I actually wish that rc would give roddy some of jkiddos minutes but not because he's better but that jkiddo really needs less minutes. I'd stick him out there for a few minutes each half if possible to see how he's going. If he's going good, then he's pretty dang good.

[Rick41]

At one point, we were up 53 points and Najera was still cheering on the bench. LOL

I've got no problem with that. I also think Booby showed enough today that he deserves some chances to come in for JJB and JET when they're not producing offensively and the team needs someone who can shoot from range. I don't expect him to be more than a third-stringer at this point, but I certainly think he deserves another chance as more than just a bench-warmer.

The kid is an avid Jason Kidd hater and Harris nuthugger. He really doesn't understand that there is more to basketball than scoring. Just ignore him
