[dang] bbd always there!

[Fafnir]

Nice defense there.

Now get it to 10.

[Donoghus]

BBD take the one in the ol' "twig & berries"?

That did not look good.

JO even said it the other day, he needs to get his conf up, get a few more post passes...to get his grooove...be a part of the O...gotta body chandler a bit more...

Posting up, especially with our two weaker post players against very good post defenders isn't something the C's to do.

no big deal, it isn't like they are listening to either of us....i just think more post play, leads to more easy hoops, more fouls on them, and more weak side rebounds for us....if we go for them...instead of all this outside shooting.

Caron Butler = 15.4ppg = scored 77 points on 74 shots, 22 FTs and 11 turnovers. 0.80 points per possession.

Butler has been a miserable scorer and overall offensive player for the Mavs since he landed there.

[Donoghus]

Only down 10 at the half.

It could be a lot worse.

gotta buy that cup when you do that stuff often....or something..padding...?

I think his back tightened on that. He was grabbing his lower right side.

[CelticSooner]

I'll take 10 at the half. Tighten up the defense in the second half.

[rsan]

Ugly first half. If shots fall we can take this game

Not when your post players are over matched.

Every single screen Tyson Chandler sets is blatantly illegal. It's not even close. How has he not been called for one offensive foul yet?!

[LilRip]

the game's within reach! i think it's just a matter of tightening the D up and taking better shots. sounds overly simplistic but hey!

They haven't been calling much tonight.

[Kiorrik]

We've got this. Just gotta tighten up the D a lil' bit and then start making our shots.
