Im late on this one.. but the Mavs are winning with about 3 minutes left in the 4th.. post your thoughts on the game here...
I didnt get a chance to watch the whole game. Mavs out rebounded the Wolves on the offensive end and was the key to the win tonight. Avery did a pretty decent job coaching. A big win for the Mavs without Daniels/Finley. 5-5 now through the tough stretch.. Not bad
Nice use of the "big" lineup, with Alan Henderson starting and grabbing something like 14 boards, 9 offensive. Devin Harris also got a rest, sounds like he's hit the Rookie wall. How long can Dirk keep this up? I loved to see him pumping his fist. Some of those shots were just unfair, he's unstoppable.

Last year he was unhealthy and, like you said, wasnt getting his fair share of the offense. I see him finishing in the top 5 in both rebounds and points. I'm gonna say 2nd in pts, 5th in boards
nice game from the Mavs, three guys with pts-rebs double doubles! but how about Nellie getting ejected after only 93 seconds by Joe Crawford... He must have said something about his momma...

Look how he fell off last year because he wanted to defer to Walker. He's playing with a mentality of "me first", and that's great. He is certainly one of, if not THE, most unstoppable offensive forces in the league. Will he keep it up when Finley returns? I hope. By the way, Nellie told Norm yesterday that he intentionally got himself ejected. He knew with Joey Crawford, and his obvoius bias against the Mavericks, that the Mavs would have no chance to win that game. He said he thought they'd have a better chance with Vinnie coaching and him in the locker. Basically, he knew that Crawford would not call the game fairly if he was on the bench. Isn't is sad that some officials have such a bias?
