Monta out there
I need 701-0 good win. hopefully 60 more to go.
I liked leaving Ellington in, he's gonna find his way a no better team to do it against than the Hawks
I'm all for Blair until Wright gets back...Then we got a nice spot for him on the benchThis is the only other reason other than wanting to see what he's rolling with that Rick would play him as much as he did.
But if we're in a close game vs. a top 10/15 squad, his ass better be riding pine
I have a pretty solid feeling about this season. Would be nice to see Monta tune down the TOs, and I'm sure once he gets comfortable in the offense, he will. Same with Calderon.
But let's not sleep on Dejuan Blair. After Monta, he was probably the most impressive Mav to me last night. Dude was beasting on the glass, especially in the first half where he seemed to rip a few ORebs out of the defenders hands a couple times.
I don't see Calderon being pressured at the point and he should cook Lin. He'll definitely shoot better then he did in the first game.I hope we show up tonight and provide some competition for Houston. The line is HOU -6.5, and if we cover that, I'll be impressed.
Need Dirk to exploit his matchup at the PF spot, since we'll most likely be outmatched at all the other positions, with PG being a coinflip.
