I got a Smith Jr jersey for Christmas, so I'm hoping for a big game from him...and a big loss.

It is a fact that the best in the East are not better than the worst in the West, so tonight, the worst of the West will be way better than the best of the East; then, the worst will beat the best in the worst's best game of their worst season no matter the best's best defense....
Mavs - 133
Ottersaurus - 131

@bobbykaralla: Tonight Wesley Matthews has to try to slow down a guy who's averaging 31.8 ppg in his last six games on 55.2/51.9 splits and taking 10.0 FTA/g. Merry Christmas.

Derozan is the perfect example of why people need to be patient with Smith. Demar averaged 8 ppg as a rookie, was picked 9th, and is now a superstar. It takes time.

I don't care what you call DeRozan, I'll be happy if Dennis ends up the same caliber.

Yogi screwed up running his man into the lane that caused the dirk double team turnover. But the team is playing well together, especially Powell right now on defense

Kleber has been quite the find -- I wonder if we would have ever found out about him if Noel had been our starting center... Maybe after Dirk retired? Maybe never? Crazy how things work in the NBA.

DeRozan shot 3-16 for 8 points, Dennis shot 3-14 for 8 points... The Basketball Gods have a twisted sense of humor.

At least Dennis knows we should lose. If Barea screws us out of a top five pick, then I'll be a sad panda.

Kleber - 15 points, 5 blocks.
Nice to see him straight up stone a couple guys and then his weakside shot blocking skills on display again.
Would love to see him become a knockdown 3 point shooter. he's only at 31% on the year.
Form looks good... Holger?
