I miss you, Dirk and Co.
I will find a way to reconnect with you soon! But just seeing that picture of his celebration is EPIC.

I know one shouldn't be a downer with a win but can the Mavs just waive Singleton already? He is nearly as ineffective as Matt Carroll these days without the horrid contract.

Did anyone see Jet on NBA TV after the game. I didnt but someone on DB.com posted this that I thought was interesting.
"JET was talking about Roddy and how the sky is the limit for him and how playing with Kidd on the floor makes the game easier and stuff... but the thing I found most interesting was this: "The main thing for him to improve hsi game and get better is GAME EXPERIENCE (he emphasized that part), he needs GAME EXPERIENCE"
So it looks like atleast one of the players are lobbying for Roddy to get more minutes... Hopefully Rick responds."

Great win. Roddy playing in OT and the Mavs getting the win will be huge for RC's confidence in playing the rookie.

already wrote this GDT, but i kno most jump over to here so jus wanted to post it again. my bad if any of ya'll already read it:
my goodness. i have been browsing last few pages here (meaning GDT) and i have to say i am shocked but also not so shocked. its expected (the bickering) during a heated a tight game that went to OT, but after ALL i saw was dirk's game winner via replay video after gettin back home, i thought maybe the board would be in a better mood.
since i was not part of any of the convo, it is absolutely not my place to put my two cents in. all i have to say is Dirk is fabulous, and night after night he keeps proving it to me. i love all of you, and i love our winning ways.
WHAT A DAMN SHOT BY DIRK DAMN IT!!!! INSANE BOUNCE, INSANE GAME!!!
HERES SOME +REP!!!
GO MAVS!!!

The tip-in by Gooden after the missed layup by Dirk was a huge and his behind-the-back dribble was funny.
I wouldn't give up on Singleton just yet. It's tough for a guy at the end of the bench to get in any kind of rhythm.

It was pretty special how Gooden managed to sneak around baseline to get to that offensive rebound. For people ragging on his bball iq, he gets an A+ for that one.
I was just really disappointed in Singleton picking up two extremely dumb fouls in nine seconds with three minutes left in the third. They made him look like a rookie.

Skiles has to be second guessing his decision to play Dirk with Mbah a Moute on the final possession. He's a great defender but a taller player would have made it nearly impossible for Dirk to catch a lob in the middle of the floor. It still took a great pass by Kidd to get him the ball.

I love JJB, but he should be just a spark when things are getting lazy, for 4th quarters, it's should be 50/50 PT for RB3 and JJB.

I know one thing I'll be happy when this month is over with all the back to back games the Mavs have, I'm not crying about how many back to back games they have because the Lakers have the same amount........it's just crazy how the NBA schedule maker put them in the same month not that far from each other, if the Mavs can make it out of this month with a good record and stay above 500. I'll be happy.
Side Note:
They just said on DMN that Tim Thomas might play is his first game vs. the Spurs coming up....I'm not sure what's going on with Marion but I hope he's not to hurt because the Mavs are gonna need him with Howard being out.

After the shittiest night possible, coming home to read the headline "Nowitzki saves mavs with buzzer-beater in OT" sure helps.

"Jennings was once again a one man show in the fourth quarter. 13 of his 25 points, including two three-pointers. Not so coincidentally, Jennings had more room to operate with Rodrigue Beaubois out of the game for the entire fourth period. Beaubois’ quickness was a huge factor in Dallas’ success against Jennings early and Beaubois defense on the final play made Jennings look like a rookie for the very first time all year pretty much. I asked Jennings about Beaubois
(On whether he’s seen anyone as quick as him this year) No not really. I think he’s the future for that team.)"
13 of BJ's 25 in the 4th. But I'm told JJB played him great. Go figure.

good to hear what others think about Roddy...especially a young gun the league is basically anointing as a star like Jennings.
I would temper all Roddy based enthusiasm by suggesting that much of what we're seeing at the offense end is basically the product of Jason Kidd.
I said it in another thread, but drafting Rookies who can make an impact in spots now and major impact later is exactly what good teams do.
Roddy, the steal of the draft? Thanks Donnie.

In what way is it a product of Jason Kidd? I could go for that if you are talking about Kidd being a mentor to him and teaching him things, but in games Roddy is creating a lot of stuff just being a good player and being lightening quick, not really because Kidd is opening things up for him. I haven't seen anything in that made me think Roddy wouldn't be successful without Kidd on the floor with him.
I just pray that Roddy legitimately busts out because we are due for a hit like him. Josh was close and Harris too (while he was here), but since Dirk we haven't hit too big in the draft. The timing couldn't be too much better either, Kidd still has enough left in the tank (with the right lineup) to get us by until (if) Roddy arrives as a legit starter. Maybe the stars will align for us. Maybe Harris was meant to go and we suffer a lil because Roddy was coming. Maybe Gortat was meant to stay because Gooden can provide enough help along side an improved Dampier. Maybe god doesn't hate the Mavs, and is going to punish Stern and his crooked refs . Temper that. I think if a jinx is possible, I may have achieved it. Quick someone counter it.

Yea those fans were loud, chanting a lot, did sound like a NCAA game or just one drunk section singing. Sorta how i wish our home fans would be every game, uber rowdy proud and loud. Like college basketball or a euro futbol game. Loud chants all game that create energy and give motivation to the players, but also annoys the opposing team

a real douchey comment. Dirk....a career 25 and 11 guy in nearly 100 playoff games, and this f****ng douchebag is dissing him after he hit a buzzer beater. what a twit.

Wow, what an idiot. Not only that, but Dirk HAS hit several game tiers/winners in the playoffs (Off the top of my head, gamewinner vs. Phoenix the year we lost to them, game tying 3 to send it to OT vs. Memphis, game tying and one to send it to OT in game 7 vs. SA.) Not to mention countless other clutch plays in the playoffs.

Ok here's the thing about ESPN.....if Kobe, Lebron, Wade or Melo had made that shot Dirk made the guys over at ESPN would have spent atleast 5 to 7 minutes talking about it and how great thoes players are, I'm not suprised there saying this about Dirk because if Dirk got traded to the Cavs to play with Lebron ESPN would change there tune real quick, what has Lebron won that Dirk hasn't won in his career?......everybody over at ESPN is in love with Lebron and the Cavs and also remember nobody over at ESPN pick the Magic to beat the Cavs in the playoffs last season.

That's what passes for excellence at ESPN. An anchor (who is just supposed to be reporting the news) offering his brain-dead opinion about something he doesn't understand.

Watched the game last night and am just now getting a chance to chime in.
A lot has been covered already so I want to comment on the one thing that impressed me most, and that is Roddy Beaubois. Carlisle almost cost us the game by leaving JJB in there so long. I mean, Jennings was simply abusing JJB every single time he touched the ball. No disrespect to JJB, because it' clear Jennings is crazy fast and very talented, but every time Robo came in Jennings cooled off big time.
When I saw Robo in the lineup to stary OT I said to myself "Thank God and not a moment to soon." What happened? After scoring 13 of his 25 points in the 4th with tons of momentum against JJB, Jenning only managed to score two points throughout the entire OT against Robo. I mean the kid played some very excellent denial and containment defense. Dirk was the MVP of this game, but imo Roddy was a close second. Without his contribution on defense I don't think we win this game.
