It has seemed like he has missed more than 3 games, but he his suiting up

More Nowitzki lying on the floor writhing in pain tonight.

Go, Brockman!

And on March 16th, I want to put Sean May in the game and sweep Kobe’s leg.

If your elbow runs into Jon Brockman’s face, you won’t be having more teeth lodged in there. Brockman will have your elbow lodged in his teeth.

At the same time, I hope that frustration and anger from last night doesn’t affect the young guys in a negative way. We had a good game against this same guys in Dallas and now we are home to hopefully a good number of fans at Arco. I’ll be there doing my part

Go Kings!

Going to the game tonight. Hope the Kings come out with fire.

Is Dirk the best white player in the NBA?

Not a big race thing, but just wondering what you thought.

The last time we played it was the 11th game for our current coach & team. We started Beno, Tyreke, Noc, JT & Spencer, and Donte only got 11 minutes. Dallas got 93 FGA’s to our 81, mostly due to their 17 Offensive rebounds, and our 21 Turnovers. But, we only lost by 2 on the road because of our 53% Field Goal shooting and our 38% shooting from 3pt range. We won 3 of the 4 quarters, but FT shooting came down to being the deciding factor again (don’t it always). Both team shot 71.4% but Dallas hit 15-21 and the Kings hit 10-14. But, the Mav’s were without Marion who might be the best off-season acquisition by any playoff team.

December hasn’t been exceptionally good to the Mav’s who are 9-5 after going 13-5 to start the season. But, a 64% winning percentage isn’t bad, and the Mav’s are as good on the road as they are at home at 11-5 for each. All 3 shooting percentages are down in December, so are offensive rebounds, steals and points per game. They’re only averaging 97.8 ppg after scoring 105.5 in November.

The Kings have had similar drops in winning percentage and shooting percentages in December compared to the start of the season with an 8-9 record at the start of the season and 6-9 in December. But, the Kings home record of 11-6 is comparable to Dallas’ road record. What hasn’t been favorable is our record against upper echelon team, 1-6 in December. Still, except for a couple of double digit loses to Mia and Sas, we’ve been in most of the games up until the end.

I believe that Tyreke will come back, to help stop the bleeding. Hopefully he won’t be too rusty and keeps his turnovers to a minimum. Even though Marion is back, we now have our stopper in Donte. I expect PW will start Beno on Barea and Tyreke on Kidd. The frontcourt will be Spencer, JT & Donte. To keep JT out of foul trouble I think he should guard Dampier and let Spencer take Nowitzki.

The Mav’s have 4 potential double double guys in points and rebounds with Nowitzki, Marion, Dampier and Gooden. So, JT has to stay out of foul trouble, and Donte and Omri are going to have to have exceptional games on the offensive boards. We doubled a lot off Terry and Kidd and they killed us last game, but I expect we’ll have to do it again. Let’s hope our guys pick up the help defense which we saw a little of in the Laker game.

The Kings should be more than motivated after that painful lose yesterday. I’m worried about Tyreke coming back stale, and think running the offense through Spencer might ease him back, plus Spencer shot the ball well from outside, and it’s probably a good idea to keep him shooting especially if he can make 1 or 2 early. I think this is a winnable game as long as we keep the turnovers to a minimum and hit the offensive boards.

Kings win 107-105 at home. Go Kings.

And yes, as somebody said above I hope we win this one out of pure anger.

Its a place to start :)
