by Tony Gutierrez - AP View full size photo » This was the Mary, Queen of Scots of basketball games. The Mavericks were always in the executioner's role, always with the biggest weapon and the strategically superior position. But damn if they didn't have to hack at the Kings repeatedly to get the job done. "Put the kids to bed, Sally, the Kings are in town!" Dallas ended up winning...
TONY GUTIERREZ Associated Press Kings guard Beno Udrih shields himself as Drew Gooden of the Mavs dunks in the first half. Udrih scored 20 points and had five assists. DALLAS The Kings committed 21 turnovers for the second game in a row, and as a result lost their second consecutive game. This time, the Kings fell to the Dallas Mavericks 104-102 on Friday at American Airlines Center. The Kings...
Sorry y'all, can't watch the game tonight. Something more serious weighing on my mind right now. Just kidding! Y'all know where my heart lies. It's Paul Westphal you need to crack. (SPOILER ALERT! Donte Greene started Tuesday.) THE OPPONENT For all the bouquets Phoenix (10-3) has been bestowed with, Dallas (9-3) has been just as surprisingly good. Don't forget that Josh Howard has (basically) missed...
That was a tough game to lose. There are some really good signs from last nights game, but one thing that is really not good is the loss of Manu Ginobili . I haven't heard if he's going to be out for an extended period or if everything was just precautionary last night. Let's just hope that game last night didn't cost us more than a loss. On to the game.... The defense was pretty good last night. You...
The following is written by David Kamoe, a life-long sports fan whose sister is a close friend. David is an avid A's fan, wen to to high school with Drew Gooden and can't believe that Giants commentator Mike Krukow used to refer to the right-centerfield expanse at Pac Bell Park as "Finley Alley," referring to Steve Finley who remarkably wore a Giants uniform for a season. David will likely...
Sometimes the game can turn on a single sequence. Up 2 in OT, George Hill drives the lane. The ball is bouncing around the rim, and Duncan has a chance to tap it in, giving us a commanding 4 point lead and momentum. Instead, Duncan leaves the tap short, the Mavs grab the board, Duncan trips over his own feet, And Nowitzki gets a layup at the rim and a foul. And like that we're down 1, 5 point swing,...
Here it is--our first rematch of the season. Gentlemen, shake hands. All right, let's keep it clean (no nut punches, Terry ), and . . . Come out of your corners fighting! ::clang:: Okay, first, that picture of Timmeh came from here . Go there to see the whole set (and boy, are they spectacular), and . . . have whatever reaction you feel appropriate. (Hat tip to Hardwood Paroxysm for the link.) You...

The Spurs came into the game missing their two top players in Tony Parker (ankle), and Tim Duncan (ankle) Mavericks roll to victory right? Not so fast.

Mavs Afternoon Drive: Another 'Flier' On Roddy? More injury stuff: Drew Gooden (ribs) did not participate in full contact work for most of this week and should be considered questionable at best for Saturday’s game against Toronto. Tim Thomas (knee) worked out but is not ready to make his debut. Quinton Ross (lower back) also missed the workout. Which makes me want to bounce back to TAKE 1: If...
If there was ever any doubt that homophobia was alive and well in the wide world of sports, just take a look at the past two weeks. In the NFL there was Kansas City Chiefs running back Larry Johnson berating a Twitter follower with anti-gay language. In the NBA, Dallas Mavericks center Drew Gooden allegedly blasted a Los Angeles fan with some homophobic rhetoric. And in hockey, a minor league player...

The Clippers fan who was allegedly victimized — actor Chris Wylde — says so, and the NBA is investigating the incident: “While the subject of an alleged homophobic slur by Drew Gooden continued to fan his own flames Tuesday, the Mavericks stayed silent, and the NBA opened a review of the situation, although it’s difficult to see any substantial penalty forthcoming from the incident....
