    Dallas-Clippers would be a playoff game if the playoffs started today...

    Hopefully by the end of the night that won't be the case. The Mavs look like they're on track for a loss and if we beat the Jazz, we move into 3rd. Of course, that would mean the Rockets would face the Clippers if the playoffs started today which is a scary thought.

    I agree. I'm not as scared facing the bugaboo teams Clippers, OKC, Memphis now that Rockets have a better bench and Smith can guard those forwards.

    Just like that we're #3. If rockets lose tonight, they're bunch of losers.

    Aside from game one, Rondo has not looked good in Dallas.


    I am not convinced that Rondo/Ellis backcourt can be effective.

    29-6-5 on 12-19 shooting vs. Boston

    2-6, 1-13, 3-7, 1-11 promptly afterwards

    Dude shouldn't take more than 6FG per game

    He has had a few more good games. You're forgetting about that homecoming game in Boston.

    Yup.
    Everyone crying after his fluke game where he hit like four threes.
    Law of averages, this guy is a horrendous shooter, just ignore him on the perimeter and you've got a massive advantage on defense.

    What's the general sentiment among Mavs' fans and their forums these days?

    They have to resign Chandler, Ellis, and Rondo. All one year deals

    nice theory, but no...

    You make it sounds like Rondo's playmaking has been neutralized his whole career. Obviously it hasn't, so your defensive strategy is not the simple.

    If you continuously back off him, that allows him to dribble right to the free throw where is passing angle are multiplied. You have to keep him out of the middle, so you have to guard him and steer him to the outside, or you just increase his passing efficiency more by giving him the middle.

    He's like the PG's version of Dwight Howard. Minimal improvement throughout his career.
