Official thread of the Dallas Mavericks

Who will end the win streak?

Sun 11th @ Lakers
Mon 12th @ Warriors
Wed 14th vs Suns
Fri 16th vs Celtics
Sun 18th @ Pistons
Tues 20th @ Knicks
Wed 21st @ Cavaliers
Fri 23rd @ Celtics
Sun 25th @ Hawks
Tue 27th @ Hornets
Wed 28th vs Bucks
Fri 30th vs Knicks

Or beyond that?

There's a lot of road games in there. Surely, surely it has to end soon. Anyway place bets, folks. Obvious money would be on the Suns. But the home winning streak is even longer. 23 games now.

It's Suns or Pistons. They have an "easy" schedule left, IMO.

The logical thing would be that the Suns end the streak, but these things usually end against worse team when the concentration isn't exactly 100%. So my guess is that the Warriors will end the streak at 17th. Baron Davis is coming back and Jason Richardson has been lighting it up lately.

So GSW finally back at full strength won't be such a push over for the Mavs as they've been almost all season. GS isn't that bad if you could get rid of all the injuries to their stars.

I am saying Detroit. It has to end sometime, and I doubt the streak will end it home.

The reason it wont be the Suns is that A. Dallas > Phoenix, and B. The game is in Dallas.

If they haven't lost by Wednesday the 21st against Cleveland, they'll definitley lose that game. It will have been their 3rd game in 4 days on the road, they will have just played the Pistons and the Knicks at home. The Knicks are a tough team to beat at home, MSG is loud and pumping again. They feed off of their home crowd.

In fact, I'm actually going to say the Knicks will beat them on the 20th and then they will lose again to Cleveland on the 21st. That's right, 2 straight losses.

I don't really think that, but I think they'll lose one of those 2 games.

they will lose to the Spurs, Suns, Pistons and probably some games down the stretch cuz Avery will be resting his starters for the playoffs the last 5 games or so

It wont be the suns, it could be the pistons or the cavaliers.

The pistons are playing good basketball (well, not good enough to beat the cavaliers at home of course)

It will either be detroit or the cavaliers. The cavaliers are extremely hot right now though, especially with the move to put larry hughes at PG.

Most Likely IMO: @ Detroit
Second Most: @ Cleveland
Third most: vs Phoenix

Dallas is tough to beat no matter what right now though, so it could be none of those teams.
