GDT game 74 - Mavs (31-42) at Pelicans (31-43) 7:00 FSSW
Mavs go to N'awleaons to take on BoogieBrow. Pelicans are our biggest competitors for the 9th (lottery) seed. They are only a half game better than us, so a loss tonight would leap frog them and give us 9th place as well as tying the season series, sending it to division record (both teams are .333 against the division) and then conference that the Pelicans lead.
We're currently 2-1 against the Pels this season (1-0 post-trade)
Pelicans are 6-4 over last ten
Mavs are 4-6 over last ten and on a two game losing streak
Injuries
Curry - "injured shoulder" - questionable

They just signed Quinn Cook to a second 10-day contract. Strong tank move.

IF they play.
Right now they're saying Curry is cleared to play. I don't think they're sitting anyone tonight which isn't a tank move. Giving guys a night off for the minorest injury is the best way to tank.

The PELICANS signed Cook to a 10-day contract... Mavs just re-signed Jarrod Uthoff.
@ChrisBHaynes: New Orleans Pelicans plan to issue a second 10-day contract to guard Quinn Cook, league source tells ESPN.

Nice catch. They're scouting our cast-offs thinking there might be a diamond lodged somewhere in that feces.

Right, assumed "they" would obviously mean the opponent.

If you take a look at the draft board, you can see that at 9th, we would very likely have several options to draft a perimeter player with a high ceiling. That is the cutoff point, at 10, we could be looking at drafting the Finnish kid. He could be a good NBA player, but I would rather take my chances with Nkilitina, Smith or Monk.

100% agree -- Markkanen seems to have the least amount of upside out of anyone in the top 10, so picking #9 or higher is crucial.

I will not accept the ottery-tank option when the Mavs are just five games away from getting the 8th spot in the West... tonight, the Ottercans fall to the Mavs, who get their first W of a 10 game winning streak which will secure the playoffs....
Mavs - 102
Ottercans - 100

Alright let's limit Dirk to about 10 minutes... and rest Wes these last games. We need to figure out if Brussino can be a future piece on this team.

@bobbykaralla: Rick Carlisle said Salah Mejri will not play tonight. He got banged up on the play against OKC when he took that kick to the stomach.
@bobbykaralla: Seth Curry returns to the starting lineup tonight, alongside Matthews, Barnes, Nowitzki, and Noel.

I'll laugh if Brussino goes for 30 and wins the Mavs this game.

At least on paper that lineup sounds way too good, particularly against a team with nothing but trash in the back court

Im so conflicted. On one hand, F these refs. No ref should ever be so bad.
On the other hand, they're helping us bigly.

Devin ejected, both Carlisle and Armstrong hit with techs... Pelicans only hit 2 of 4 FTs.

Is there any kind of record for the team that gets the most bullshit calls??? For sure, the Mavs are the leaders in that category!!!

This is how Yogi needs to always play even if Rick doesn't like it. If Rick benches you for being you, then that's on him.

I guess the Mavs decide to tank or not depending on the possession.
