The official 2015-2016 Dallas Mavericks season watch thread

[slamtheking]

come on Denver.  saw this one on the schedule and chalking it up as an easy Dallas win.  hope this is one of the many times I'm wrong

[rondofan1255]

Denver winning would be doubly good tonight!

If Denver wins today and NO wins against Minny tomorrow, 6th worst then becomes 24 wins!   

Would rather Minny win tomorrow though!

Denver is getting burned now, it's a 1 point game

Denver choke job

[i believe in brad]

Wow Denver was up 9 with 1:50 to play in regulation, what a meltdown.  Still time to take it in OT but that's disappointing.

Unbelievable.  I want to reach into my TV and slap Will Barton.  I don't know if I've ever seen a worse player take so many shots down the stretch.  When the Mavs needed a stop, Barton made sure they got it by clanking one drifting, fade away 3 pointer after another.

Barton was a matador on defense too. He was atrocious.

It's amazing how many close games the Mavs have pulled out when down 6 or 7 with a minute left.  They've done it vs. Portland, Sacto, and now Denver this year.  All when I've been watching.  So frustrating I now expect it.

Sunday is Mavs vs. Minny.  That will be a good one for us tank watchers.  Minny will be on the second night of back to back, though, so might be tough.  Perhaps since they are all young pups, they'll be fine.

they've won 7 games in OT or double OT.  Has to be some record

[rondofan1255]

If they had lost most of those OT games, they may have gone into tank mode by now.

I'm excited if this pick can stay #15-17. That makes packaging it with the C's pick and the Minny/Philly picks plausible to acquire a late lottery pick.

I suspect it's called "having a great coach and tons of veteran experience."

[jmen788]

Barring a major Mavs injury, best case scenario is that they finish 500 and end up with pick 14 or 15. If they stopped somehow winning games like the Denver one the other night, then pick 10-13 could be in play - ugh.

Rondo beats the Mavs.
