Mavericks 104, Raptors 99

Just a tip to the Raptors. Dirk can shoot. Dirk can shoot great. Lights out.

Once The Score figured out how to get a clean sat feed going and the game could be watched, it was pretty much over.

For a few minutes in the third quarter it did not matter what was going on, Dirk wanted the ball and he was going to hit it. Toronnto was clinging to a lead and then everything went to hell as Nowitski kept coming down and bombing threes like it was practice.

That was the game and that pissed away what was left of a 24 point lead that Toronto had built in the first half. This is the third time in the last year or so that Dallas has done this to the Raptors. Gotten down huge and come back to dance in Toronto’s face.

Bosh had a strong game, Ford had moments of amazing and even Bargnani was filling it up. So where did it all go wrong?

Well everyone knew Dallas was going to make a run and they did. Toronto seemed to take the punches and still keep a small lead. That is when Dirk put on his air show and Toronto did not do much to stop it.

I am not that upset that Toronto lost the game. They were supposed to lose the game in Dallas. I am just frustrated that they had such a good first half and they could not keep it up over the full 48.

Is there too much tinkering with lineups? Are the wrong guys playing together at the wrong times? I guess it is better to figure all this out now and not April.

T.J. got another stinger in his arm so I hope he is good to go tonight in Memphis. If he can cut down on a few crazy shots he has a real chance to be one of the best point guards in the league I think.

Ah I always leave those games unhappy and annoyed but it is only November. This time last year they were already 2-8 and we were ready to blow up the teams.

By the way I can’t take the Capital One commercials anymore.
