They've had an easy schedule of late. They've beaten the Clippers, Sacramento, Indiana, Memphis, and the Knicks. In their last game Kidd actually scored zero points. Interestingly, Josh Howard has been hurt during this stretch, so it will be interesting to see what happens when he returns.
You can blame the fans all you want but a professional basketball player or team should be able to win in an empty gym. The fans don't make the shots, block them, or play defense. That really is a poor excuse. Players and coach's win games. Give credit where credit is due ( the Mavs) they are really playing well as of late and i' m sure Jason Kidd has alot to do with it.
Kidd has been playing fantastic basketball. Dallas has 3 players scoring over 20 ppg, but Kidd has been their best player this season. He looked terrific last night. He may have lost a few steps, but his floor game will always be heads and shoulders above everyone else's.
I'm not discrediting the Mavs for their recent success, nor am I giving the Nets a pass for their poor play on Tuesday, I'm just stating a fact. Nevertheless, as Dumpy mentioned, their schedule has been quite soft recently but Kidd has definitely been playing well this season.
yeah, mavs had a easy schedule. I want to see them beat Celtics or Lakers or any other team besides the Suns, who are going down before I give them credit, and I just don't see that happening
Bucks almost lost this one, it was down to the last possession. Good win for the Bucks though, they're extremely happy with the trade. Yes, their fans bring this up after every win.
Yes, RJ was one of my favorite Nets. One of the reasons I still track the Bucks. That team need to do better with the level of talent they have on their team, with a proven coach in charge too.
I expected RJ's assists to pop back up once Redd returned, and they haven't. I wonder if this means a return to his old ways (and by old I mean latter-NJ pre-Bucks years, not early-NJ years).
really can't the bucks start doing better and the mavs get worse i love cheering for RJ's team more then Kidd's team, mavs are so overrated
RJ is really having a rough night tonight against the fakers. He got 3 quick fouls in the first half and only has 3 pts to show for it. Then in the second half he got his 4th foul early. Meanwhile the fakers are destroying them like 60 to 37 early in the 3rd... RJ mother told you there be days like this....
Wow, he played only 10 minutes. They should have just let him play with all those fouls if they were going to keep him down like that.
a little note from espns daily dime...over the past three games (small sample size, I know), Kidd is putting up: 2 ppg, 5.7 rpg, 8 apg...with 13.3% shooting. ouch.
