    If two out of the three weren't horrible teams itd of been more enticing, I would think.

    Wow, that was trippy to look at her instagram account. It was interesting to see that she and Lillard went to Batum's ex wife's wedding.

    That's why I thought we'd win! At home against crappy teams. Plus, law of averages says we go on home win streak after starting 7-10.

    Is he excited because he has been told the trade is almost finalized?

    Shut up. I said I don't think we would win all 3. Thats it. We did. Awesome. You were talking about a 9 game winning streak where we didn't even win the 1st two games.

    I think the first half was fine, even though they shot noticeably more free throws than us.

    At the start of the second half, the refs allowed Dallas way more leeway with offensive contact, and whistled us for everything.

    It looked like a typical "gotta keep the game close, and entertaining" effort by the refs.

    But the players aren't stupid, they knew what was going on. So Dallas pushed their luck, Portland (thankfully for once) didn't back down, and the game descended into a farce of back and forth makeup calls.

    What was killing me the most early in the season was his dumb turnovers. It seems like he's cleaned that up.

    Players of the game.....
    Yes Dame and CJ for sure. But also ET and.......ED.
    Davis' stat line was nothing special (although he had 10 boards) but he came up huge on so many hustle plays.

    This was a good win despite the Mav's record. Before the game I though we would lose this one. The Mavs had extra time to prepare and you knew Wes was going to treat this like game 7 of a playoff series. The intensity in the 4th was fun.

    Nurk with 4 turnovers. Why does he put the ball on the floor in traffic?
