Game #65: Cavaliers @ Mavericks - Friday March 15, 2013 - 8:30 pm EST

Zeller super masculine tonight, Dion still struggling

Lol I think your expectations for Dion are a little too high. He missed a jumper and a layup, nothing to worry about right now.

What is Speights doing out there? He couldn't look lazier if he was sitting on a couch.

 

[Maximus]

Waiters looking even worse than i predicted. Trying to play 1 on 5. Go try to get a rebound or pass the freaking ball for an assist. Terrible...

Yea he's playing really selfish basketball right now.

Thank God Speights is out, though. He was absolutely pathetic out there.

Uh, that is what he has been doing. Alot of passing, which is why he only has 5 attempts. Why do you think Zeller has 7 attempts tonight? A slump is a slump.

 

[Rich]

So, we've got a guy who is 4-6, getting to the rim when he wants to right now. So here's the plan for the second half, don't pass him the ball ever. GO!

 

[Futuredome]

Rotten free throw shooting again......legs getting tired?

 

[BimboColesHair]

That might have been the best game Zeller has played all year, and it's only halftime

 

[Rich]

Why do all of these announcers of bad teams we play act like their team isn't bad? I listened to Toronto's announcers talk about how Cleveland isn't good, and now Dallas announcers doing it too. Do they not realize their teams suck as well, and therefore no game is a game they "should" win?

Now, half-time, so let's get everyone together and talk about the customary Tristan Thompson second half freeze-out.

 

[Stark]

Nice half Zeller.

 

[Rich]

Zeller played well enough that I'd like to see Speights get no more than 5 minutes this half. He was that damn awful.

It's not like the Mavericks are any good. Their best player is starting to get banged up pretty bad and is getting old. Mayo is leaving this summer. Brand is old. Carter is old. Kaman and Collison were both on one year deals if I remember right. Dallas isn't going anywhere fast unless they pull off some major FA stuff this summer.

 

[BKnight's Ankle]

Zeller with the best half of his career, and Crowder with no points..... Yea at least we can say that was a good trade

Yea it's why I laughed Ken Berger's dumbass article this morning where he ranked the lottery bound teams in order of teams most likely to make the playoffs next year, and number 1 was Dallas based solely on the idea that Mark Cuban won't let his team miss the playoffs two years in a row. Dallas is in trouble. Their draft picks haven't been panning out that well and they are old.

 

[Futuredome]

Time for the gamely 3rd quarter rally by the Cavs opponent.
