Since the start of the dirk era in 1999, never have I once seen him tired and looking out of shape with under 5 mins to go in a game like he did tonight. Never.

Championship rust probably, but was surprising to see. Mavs still make the playoffs and win a round, but thats in doubt if lamardashian keeps playing.

29 points isn't bad for someone so out of shape and washed up. Seriously people it's been 3 games. Give these guys time to gel and get their game legs under them before you call them one and done.

This ridiculous schedule has absolutely nothing to do with it either.

he is not close to being washed up..dont get me wrong, im still a dirk homer.

just surprised to see him tired so early in the season in crunch time..never seen him like that ever..probably took a longer than his usual offseason

Thunder fan here...

If that's outta shape, he is still freaking un guardable. He did look a little winded late on the defensive end, but like we take westbrook's bad with the good, as a mavs fan you just have to take this from dirk

i was mostly pointing to the fact that with under 3 mins remaining, carlisle had to take him out to catch his breath

Also we played basketball longer than any other team except Miami last year, and Dirk played in the Euros. It surely took some toll on him. Carlisle is just playing it smart, getting him into game shape slowly.

Dirk needs some freaking help that's for sure. It's only three games though. We're really going to need Dirk to play flawless game in and game out. This team is going to go as far as Dirk takes it...even moreso than last year.

And if dirk gets injured, things will get nasty.

That's true but the team looked a lot better tonight. Lamar still stinks, but it was Vinsnity that drilled the almost game winning 3. I dont think we are as good as last year but we are much better than people are calling us right now.

Interesting. I think the mavs are pretty awful. Lets not forget the thunder are playing 2nd nire of a b2b and have played the most games in the nba thus far

amazing how bad the offense gets when he leaves... i really liked what i saw from west and mahimmi tonight.



OH AND TELL HAYWOOD TO STOP GOING ONE AND ONE... HE ****ING SUCKS. Mahimmi will end up playing more minutes/game than haywood by the end of the year.

Yeah but they're super young. They can handle it.

He's absolutely out of shape and he will readily admit it. He said he didn't touch a basketball during the lockout. If anyone deserved to take a self-imposed break from conditioning its him.
