Well I dont see us winning this one. I do feel that we can keep the score within 10 this time. The last two against them, they blew us out by 20. A win would be big, but unlikely.

We've already got 2 wins on this road trip, which is a win more than I expected. We do need to take care of business against Houston.

A win tonight would be huge, but like dallmav said, I don't think it's going to happen [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] As well as the Mavs have been playing, I still don't think they're on the same level as the Kings or Spurs..yet.

Kings give us too much trouble. And the Mavs never really play good in Sacramento.
Mavs 97
Kings 111

Whenever I predict wins, the Mavs lose, and whenever I don't say anything, the Mavs win, so I'm going to refrain from making any predictions for the rest of the season. We'll see what happens.

I'll be at the game tonight. I really hope we have a better outing than we did earlier in the year. I like our chances better with Howard and Booth on board now but I thought the same thing with the Lakers too [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]
For us to win, we need to play some big time D and get some rebounds. And, of course, make some shots [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] I remember we started off well, then the Kings locked down on defense and took us out of our game. I hope Nelson doesn't have them focus on Webber alone because it opens up the other guys for 3's and that killed us last time. Kind of like the Laker game the other night.
Nash needs to step up, as must Howard after that ugly game in LA. Dirk must contain Stojakovic, but honestly Im not sure if he can. And I like Booth on Divac and Pollard better than I do Bradley.
I'll talk to you fellas later though. Have fun.

Stojakovic is quite simply the poor man's Dirk- he plays worse D than Dirk does, and they are going to light each other up tonight...

Holy crap Howard's playing like a man possessed tonight! Maybe playing against CWebb will finally let him break out of his slump. Maxwell's also playing well against his former team. Mavs by six at the half..hope this keeps up!

So far so good. Howard's doing awesome(25pts) and Dirk's being Dirk. Looks like Fin's alittle tired. Alot of his shots are hitting the front of the rim.
Very entertaining game so far. Hope it keeps up.

Howard's definitely ripping it up out there! I hope this keeps up though, cuz the Kings definitely aren't letting up much at all. Can they freakin miss?

Ya it's been a slow weekend Hoover [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I've started work on another site that needs to be finished this week. I guess that loss against LA left a really bad taste in everyone's mouths. With LA losing to the Knicks earlier today, this'll be an awesome night if the Mavs pull out a win and the Rockets lose to the Nets (which they are so far in the fourth).

Not to be an "arm chair coach", but why does Nelson keep putting Nash/Maxwell against Peja? That is a huge match up advantage in their favor.

No doubt, a win tonight puts us back in a tie with Portland!

Let's hope he decides to re-sign with the Mavs! Since we only have the $4mil exception, I'm a little afraid the Wiz might snag him since they'll have the cap space (and Jordan's already said he wants him back).

I hope he wants to be here. I would hate to lose him. That would make that trade not look to good if we lose him.

Divac is doing anything he wants. If you breath on him the wrong way, the refs call a foul

Up 15 after three! WOW![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] I'm watching the Sacramento feed on Direct TV and their commentators just said "From the way Dallas is playing tonight the should be the odds on favorite to win the title this year."[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Just thought you guys might want to hear that.

WOW, what a game. Howard was great. Dirk was awesome. Booth played really well again. Bradley sucked. Maxwell had good productive minutes. I can't beleive we won IN Sac town. Magic number is 2 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] .

Damn that was nice. Who would have thought we'd beat Portland, Utah, AND Sac-town on this road trip. Bring on Houston! If the Mavs play the Rockets as well as they played the Kings, they should win by 40!

Offensively, he's already better than Bradley imo. However, Bradley's still the shot-swatting king!

There's no question in my mind Booth will be better then Bradley(if he isn't already. which I'm thinking he is.).

3-1 on this road trip. Who the hell would have thought that. I would have been happy with 2 wins. Im totally surprised at how this team has stepped up when it counts. We are going to raise some havic in the playoffs.
