I really don't like our chances in this tough road game, especially against Dirk. With Joe already slowed by an injury, I think Dirk will have a monster. The key to staying in this ball game is not letting a guy like Terry or Dampier go off on you. It will be close til the end Mavs by 15
Tough game for me to root for. I say Mo Williams will havea big game. But the Mavs will take it. Mavs by 11
