Need to forget that game and get ready for the Jazz. Gonna be a tough back to back but we should beat the Jazz.

We should, but the Jazz are pretty tough at home. We need to fix that 3rd quarter problem we have.

Dirk is now #9 all time scoring.

Good kill for D.M's

Great game last night although it didn't start off that way. Congrats to Dirk for passing up Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon for that #9 spot on the all time scoring list!

I watched the 1st quarter and was just amazed how awful they were.

I had to do some stuff, come back and they are up late in the game. What a rollercoaster ride.

Awesome stuff. He's gonna pass a couple more people before the end of this season. I made the prediction last year too that it'll take a bit, but in the last year of his current contract, I believe he can catch and pass Shaq. I'd like to see him end up with over 30k for his career. I think it'll be close, barring injury.

Knock on wood but ya I'd love to see him pass Shaq on that list.

This is quite the shellacking. 48-10 in the 2nd quarter.

I want to see a lot of playing time for the bench, we need those guys to play better as a unit.

73-30 at half time.

Fuck! Damn 53 point victory over the 76'ers!

[mstng86]

Yup. Just watched history

While watching the Mavs making their way to their third consecutive win against the Timberwolves, I read the following on ESPN's Mavs Blog.

Nice to see some forms Mavs returning back to work with the organization.

The Legends announced this week that beloved Mav Eduardo Najera, who is entering his third season as coach of the team, is getting three new additions to his coaching staff. Former Mav Nick Van Exel will make his D-League debut as associate head coach, while former Mav DeSagana Diop and former Legend Fred House will join the staff as player development coaches.

Van Exel retired from the NBA in 2006 and later spent two years in player development with the Atlanta Hawks before joining the Milwaukee Bucks as an assistant coach last season.

Diop retired from the NBA in 2013 after 12 years. He will work with the post players to develop agility under the basket and provide guidance.

House retired from basketball after a 12-year career to join the Legends coaching staff. He was part of the Legends during the 2012-13 season and spent last season in Russia with KB Peja of the Balkan League.

In total, the Legends added 37 years of playing experience to Najera’s staff

I believe you got it. Dirk has sat the entire 4th quarter of the last 3 games. That should come in handy down the road.
