Very impressive Arenas had 25 points 12 rebounds and 10 assists as the Stack-less Wizards beat Dallas 100-90 Dirk didn't even get into double fiqures in scoring
Awesome game for the Wiz...Kwame played horrible though but i think eh only had like 4 shot attempts...Arenas if you ever read this i hope you come through with your play-off guarentee
Well nash got hurt.. and that had a lot to do with it.. The amazing thing about dallas is that Jamison and walker have been playing great!!! the big 3 have not at all
This loss hurts. Seeing Dirk and Finley both strugling. Goodness and we lost Nash too.. Jamson and Walker did the best they could though.
Early in both games I tipped Arenas and Pierce to get TDs. Gil came through for me, but PP fell 3 boards short Nice game for Gil though, first big one since he signed the contract
Wow, Dirk not even in double digits? Didn't think I would ever see that, especially when he throws up 30+ shots a game.
Well, it looks like I was right about Dallas. I said that they were gonna have problems with having 5 superstars and only one ball. And, look what is happening, they're having problems.
Actually, for the amount of points he scores, Dirk doesn't shoot the ball a whole lot. That's the great thing about him, he can score a bunch without having to launch up shot after shot after shot.
Wow, just looked at the box score. Ouch. And, btw, other than good job Dirk, you really sucked, and so did you Finley, Delk, and Nash. But, beyond that, START JAMISON!!!!! For the love of god, he's the most athletic player on that team and he might just be the best. He's been the most consistent thing that they've had so far. I just don't understand why he's not starting right now. Maybe they'll figure out here soon....

Give Dallas time to gel, I wouldn't be too worried unless they're playing like this come December.
Yea, but, the diff between LA and Dallas. LAs players are veterans who knew they'd be giving up touches for the good of the team. And, they've done that. But, the thing bout LA, they're getting 6 players a night in double figures right now. That, I think, shows excellent team unity. Something Dallas obviously doesn't have right now. But, yea, I'm gonna give em time. They're still young.
I think losing VAn exel was huge. There's nobody there to hit big shots to stop the other team's momentum. I was in the minority who thought losing nick for jamison wasn't worth it. We'll see who got the better end of the trade soon.

He is a good weapon to have coming off the bench but until they get a true Center, they will be hurting.

People who have no outside shots are guys Like lebron james or Darius Miles, whos 3 pt % looks more like a B.A.C. ANd no hes not the best player on the team.. he scores easily and quickly though.. and would be an all star if he was in the JV conf
I dont think Jamison's outside shooting is relevant. I mean, Dallas doesn't really need MORE shooters!!! Jamison provides inside scoring, but like I said above, he defense if horrible, and 6-9 yea, 7 boards a game?!! not nearly enough...
Hes 6 -9 and gets 7 boards a game..which is respectable for a small forward What about the great eddy curry then, hes 7 foot..

Dirk, I still think is their best player, he just had a miserable night. But, Jamison has been consistent and he actually has a descent outside shot. Not the best but not bad. And yea, I agree, if they don't get a center, they're doomed in the west. But, I think, it's not the no center thing that hurts them, it's the fact they can't defend. That hurts. They have no good one-on-one defenders and they're horrible with team defense. This is the big reason why they will never win the West.
