    I think he's had more dunks this half than he's had the entire season.

    Perhaps, as well, the 15 of his 17 points he got as a direct result of a paint shot or attacking the rim in the paint probably has something to do with it, no?

    Big halftime leads always make me nervous.

    That's because Dallas is doubling LMA, yet he's still torching them. Stotts is abusing Carlisle right now.

    The Mavs look slow and sort of like a wounded dog. Get them down and they seem to roll over.

    I don't often join in with the "blame the refs" talk. But this has been very poorly officiated, solely in favor of the Mavs. If it's bad calls both ways then I wouldn't say anything. But this has been really bad.

    Also, what was the last time our shot chart looked like this?

    We don't agree sometimes, but the reffing at the end of the first half was awful until Wesley got his T.

    They seem to always blow the big lead. I'd be surprised if the Mavs don't pull to within 5 at some point. Though I hope Portland can play them even.

    It's not just the Blazers, it happens all the time in the NBA.

    Also, with the rate some people post it's no wonder you don't see what others see plain as day - you're looking at your computer rather than the game!

    Dear God, no.

    First, Chandler isn't worth the risk just b/c we have to give up 4 pieces just to get the salaries to match up. Then, in order to keep CJ (I guess?), you're swapping Wes for JR?

    Aldridge is just beasting right now. I like his varied attack. They have no one who can even stick close to him

    Some of us have it set up to look at both, and can type without looking. ;)

    We're 4-0 going on 5-0 when McCollum plays.
