    I would say the genetics piece comes from that not jacking up your hips and knees. I know a couple of marines who are wrecked for doing things like that in their 18-21 years.

    This has been a great second quarter! Defense has been much better.

    Luckily we play against a shit Team. Against a Playoff Team we would be down by 10 with that shooting

    Which is why I generally chuckle when someone brings up Dame's shot selection or his 3pt%...he does things most shooters can't do.

    Smith Jr's drive reminded me a bit of some of barkley's....as in "dude's gonna get the ball stolen there (nope), there (nope), lose it on the crossover (nope), get swatted by 2 dudes (nope). Goes in."

    I swear, the Mavericks are one of the rougher teams in the league. Sagging on everybody or holding on screens.

    I truly believe, like CJ did, that we'd be a top 3 team in West right now if we had gotten Melo for Harkless.

    I truly believed that Topanga Lawerence was going to marry me at some point because we are so alike. Doesn't mean anything, but damnit, I truly believed!
