Looks like they had some fun doing that. On one hand I'm tempted to check it out but after sitting through the first season of The Cleveland Show, I'm not sure I can stomach an entire episode just to see some NBA player cameos.

Just watched it, actually it was a pretty good episode, definitely the best that I've seen from Cleveland Show (that doesn't say much).

Roddy B. is active against the Kings tonight, hope he have a good showing.

GO MAVS!

Yes! Finally! I've been waiting for a while.

Watching that game for sure

Unfortunately the game starts at 8:30 ET, exactly when I start basketball practice.

Wow, Roddy still has the moves

Talk about balance scoring. The Mavs had 8 players scoring in double figures, with Jason Kidd leading with 20 and it seems Roddy B is gelling quickly.

Hopefully Caron Butler can do the same when he gets back.

Butler's out for the season.

He might be back by playoffs.

Seems like a long shot.

Even if he is back, I doubt he will be a 100%.

DeShawn Stevenson is also having a fluke shooting year, so Butler's talents really aren't needed.

It seems the Mavs won't be making any deadline moves. Don't know if I will be happy or not but as long as Roddy B. is doing good I am fine.

Good win against the shorthanded Utah Jazz

Damn Mavs not making any deadline moves.

Sometimes the best moves are the ones you don't make, as the saying goes. We'll just have to wait and see whether the trades work out for the other Western teams and whether or not standing pat was the right call for the Mavs.

Some posters in the realgm mavs boards are mad that Cuban and Donnie didn't do anything about Butler expiring contract in which could turn into Devin Harris.

I don't think his expiring contract was going to trump an offer of Deron Williams.

Agreed.

Any even if we got Harris, Beaubois and Barea were doing great. No
Need to screw up rotations

I find it pretty shitty that the Mavs can't blowout teams that they can and make it a close game. Also screw Rick Carlisle and his rotations

Just because the Wizards are an inferior team doesn't mean the Mavs are guaranteed to blow them out. In theory, every team in the NBA is capable of beating anyone in the league (in some cases of course, it's highly unlikely) and we do see bad teams beat good teams or good teams go down to the wire for a win over a bad team while blowing out another good team. You're not going to turn in a perfect performance in all 82 games.

Agreed. I mean, the 76ers beat the Spurs for God's Sake

Sixers are 26-16 after 3-13 start and we've already have been close to beating one of the bigs several times (1 point and 4 point loss to Boston, 4 point loss to Lakers, again 1 and 4 point loss against Orlando and also one win over Orlando)

Well a better example would be today. The Mavs were down 17-3 against the Raptors. They still won, but they always struggle with the Craptors
