Could curry leave next year? I thought he signed a one year deal.

That sounds like a great nucleus to be the 7th seed for years to come! We need at least one superstar. I have learned to not trust Cubes in free agency.

He signed a two-year deal, so he's here next season

Pounding the sixers.

Might be an interesting finish to the season actually. I think Dirk has his eye on that 8th seed. Any other year in the west, I'd be upset about winning this late in the season if they can't compete for the championship, but i guess I'm ok with it if they make the playoffs for dirk. Anything is better then being 9th place in the west ( the worst spot in the whole NBA)

If anything the ppd has probably doubled in this thread.

Would love to see the mavs play GSW considering we have half their roster from last year plus steph's brother.

Really? I feel like I remember people who know more about the sport than me speculating we might do this and being in favor of it in the past year.

Yogi!!!!

Can the Mavs go ahead and lock up Yogi with a long-term contract? How can NBA scouts miss on this guy so badly?

I'm as excited about yogi as the next guy but don't forget roddy b had a great few games and we see how that turned out

32 games left...do we finish above .500?

Dirk's stats are **** but he's still making a difference just being in the game.

So, I guess that trade isn't happening?

I saw rumors that the Cavs are interested in Bogut. I think Bogut needs to be jettisoned as quickly as possible.

So, given this- what's Dallas's real need now in the next draft? Center?

That wouldn't prevent us from drafting an impact player at guard. Basically whichever of the 8 or so players that appear to be ready to ball from day one, we should draft regardless of position.

I'm gonna say no. 39-43, and the 8th seed. But clearly this is a different team from the first 25-30 games.

Still waiting for Morlon Wiley to replace Derek Harper.

from ESPN:

Quote:

Ferrell and the younger Curry are two of a league-high six undrafted players to start a game this season for Carlisle, who continues to get the most out of any roster Mark Cuban hands him. (The other four, in case you're not in the mood for quizzes, are Wesley Matthews, Dorian Finney-Smith, Salah Mejri and J.J. Barea.)

Wonder if the refs are sending a message to a young rookie player, he is getting NO calls going to the bucket tonight

At least they still fight like mad- still apparent that these guys don't give up

Denver is always a tough place to play. Good to get that game over with.

Fml. Dirk's two late 3s gave me chills. Really wish we could have got a stop down the stretch and pulled the game out.

Dirk was feelin' it last night, but it just wasn't meant to be. They were playing catchup with Portland all night
NoahAg

Ouch. Would've loved to have beaten Portland. At least we tied the season series. Regular season may come down to April 11, our last game against Denver.

This year losing is whatever, as long as we aren't playing like ass.

I know for some people here winning games kills the idea of getting a high draft pick, but man it's awesome to get to see this team play hard and make an amazing comeback down 21 against a legit Utah team.

Dirk also seems to have found his stroke again
Grapesoda2525

Might as well get the 8th seed.

However, if they end up with the 9th seed the front office should be ridiculed. 9th place in the west is the worst spot in the NBA because no playoffs and a really poor draft position.
