Dallas Mavericks 2014-15 Season Thread

[Lone Sailor]

Dirk is now 8th on the all time scoring list.

[mstng86]

Is Dirk a top 10 all time, top 25 or lower?

Putting everyone's Dallas bias aside. I say he is close to 25

[Lone Sailor]

Dirk on beast mode tonight, put up 30.

If you go by stats, I say he's in the upper of the Top 10. If you are the type of person that looks for championship he only has the one (so far) so most people would rank him in the Top 25.

Good game especially since Tyson wasn't playing and we lost Monte towards the end of the game. Dirk still showing he can put up the numbers in his old age.

I'd say hes in the Top 10. I think he's probably the best PF of his generation and out of the last 20 years. He has the inside game like Duncan and Garnett, but no one has the range from outside like he does.

Evened out by the fact that they didn't play with Kevin Durant.

Good kill for Mavs...I take Mavs over OKC all day. What happen to Monta?

ankle injury, sounds like a slight sprain. Said online that he was walking gingerly on it but he says that he's not looking to miss any games. Mavs play the Wizards tomorrow night.

[Lone Sailor]

Celtics got hammered.

[Lone Sailor]

Dirk should pass Moses Malone tomorrow night against the Nets for 7th on the all time scoring list.

[mustang_marc]

Dirk has just tied Moses.

[Lone Sailor]

#7

Thanks to Jose and FB, I just saw that Roy Tarpley passed away. That's hard to believe, yet its not I suppose.

Very sad news indeed Marc. I grew up watching the Mavs and remember when they drafted Tarpley and his subsequent downfall. I remember his return and than his permanent ban from the NBA. I lost track of him after that and the last thing I remember hearing about him was his lawsuit against the NBA and Mavs for failing to reinstate him violated the disability act as his addiction was that. Either way, Tarpley was a great talent, he could have been the greatest Mav to take to the court of he could have gotten over his additions. I hate to say it but it's possible he could have been better than even Dirk because of his athleticism. They had a nice tribute to him after the Mavs game today and I didn't realize he had retired here. RIP Roy Tarpley.

Mavs battling it out with the Kings right now. This is a very entertaining game to watch and I hope they can pull off a win!
