Gerald Green scored the first and last points of the game. Devean George and Antoine Wright got the Kobe assignment. Wright definitely seemed to a better job. The +/-, George -17 and Wright +12, surely the difference wasn't that great right? Dallas shot 29 3's. Most of them were good shots and they made 45% which is fantastic, but that's uncomfortably high... How good was Barea tonight? 10 points,...
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! ------------------- Sefko has an article on Diop trying to raise his intensity the last few games. Caplan writes about Antoine Wright . "I think he's earned the right to start the next game," Carlisle said Wednesday, a day off before today's Thanksgiving practice and flight to LA. "It's just what position he's going to be playing." And JFE comes to the defense of Jerry...
Sefko recaps the game saying Dallas is having some breaks go their way during the five game winning streaks, and Caplan focuses his recap on Antoine Wright. Wright who notched a season-high 12 points in the second quarter, had several of those on Tuesday, and he also attacked the rim and scored rather than loft 3-pointers. "About the only time he didn't finish," Carlisle said, "was when it looked like...
Antoine Wright: On suddenly playing 40 minutes. Exhuasting. Coach has stuck with me and told me to just continue to work and my chance would come. Carlisle has said nobody has grabbed the SG spot by the horns.... Whatever happens at that two position, guys just have to come in ready, focused, and know what the game plan is. How does it feel to be back to .500? It feels good to be .500, but now we have...
Antoine Wright gets the start and the defensive assignment of LeBron James which says a lot about what Rick Carlisle thinks of Wright as a defender - McGrady in game one and James in game three. If MIN had a comparable threat would he have been a DNP in game two? Unintentional comedy in the pregame. Bob Ortegel is talking about how there has never been a teammate of Kidd with anything "derogatory"...
Not only does Stackhouse get the start ahead of Antoine Wright, but the final box score had this next to Wright's name, "DNP - Coach's Decision." Wright didn't help himself out against Houston, but what has Stackhouse done so far to get the start? I really have no idea who will start against Cleveland... I also have no idea what Minnesota is thinking with that court. The stain in the middle is too...
As expected, Antoine Wright got the start and it, ummm, well it didn't go so well. In the first three minutes he airballed a three, turned it over on two consecutive possessions, and then fouled McGrady while he was shooting a three. Final line -- 17 minutes, 2 points (1-6), 3 rebounds, 3 fouls. And yes, he should definitely still be the starter on Saturday and the foreseeable future. I might be wrong...
Wright, a 6-7 guard who can also play small forward, has started two of the first three preseason games. His youth and defense are what make him a viable option at that spot opposite Jason Kidd in the backcourt. He's not going to score like Jerry Stackhouse. He's not going to add veteran skills like Devean George. He's not going to shoot like Jason Terry.
IRVING – In the NBA, opportunity never knocks when you want it to. It makes you wait. It arrives after getting slapped around a few times, after being told that you can't do something and after it seems like everybody else gets a chance. Then, somewhere along the line, players usually get a chance. Antoine Wright knows. Wright, a former Texas A&M standout, is like a lot of players who are drafted in...
The Dallas Mavericks re-signed former Texas A&M standout guard Antoine Wright on Friday and also signed guard Keith McLeod and forward James Singleton.
