line currently at SA -10

Tempting considering the game is in San Antonio and Dirk and Butler out

What are y'alls thoughts?

Radio mentioned that Chandler could be out as well, though I haven't looked around to see if there is anything to it.

I'd take Dallas and the points. Seems like Spurs/Mavs is always closer than that, no matter who suits up.

But I'm not a betting man.

I'm not much of a betting fan but if I were I would avoid this game. Just too many emotional factors to consider. The Spurs should stomp Dallas but they could also come out flat while Dallas comes out with something to prove. Just a very hard game to predict.

Love my Mavs, but with no Dirk, Butler, or Chandler the Spurs will roll them. Too much offensive firepower. Take the Spurs.

I wouldn't touch it. If forced to, I'd take the Mavs and the points.

take the spurs

Spurs -10 looking alright so far.

Glad to see Jason Terry is still the same ole punk azz biotch with no rings.

Subs hang on to cover the spread.

There is not a playoff contender that has a bigger dropoff from superstar to role players then the ****ing Mavericks. Absolutely pathetic year after year. Dirk's prime has been wasted. And yet I can't feel sorry for Dirk because he had a chance last summer to either leave for an elite team (Bulls) or demand that Cuban get a 2nd all-star before signing the new contract.

Well, actually we were pretty damn deep when we were healthy. These "scrubs" are very good when they have dirk and caron out there, but they are by no means elite players. We can't expect them to be all-stars when our top 2 players are out.

In summation, you are an idiot.

Looks like my point flew over your head. So our 8th guy is on the same level as our 2nd guy. Great. That's a deep team, but it still relies on the superstar way too much, and it will kill them in the playoffs when no one steps up to be the 2nd scorer. It's killing them right now in the standings when he's injured.

Well, except that caron was actually doing a great job, and there is a reason we were beating teams. However, now we are ****ed, unless we screw some other team over in a trade.
I do agree that dirk's prime has been wasted. They seem to think terry is some super-clutch scorer, and maybe he is in the regular season, but he has disappeared in almost every playoff series.

i love a good mavs meltdown.did dirk kick an exercise bike last nite??
