Tim Cowlishaw, Dallas Morning News: How different are the Mavericks? We have a long time to try and figure that out, but clearly the arrival of Shawn Marion and Drew Gooden won’t answer all of Dallas’ problems right away. Mostly, the Mavs opened the season looking a lot like what we have seen around here. [...]

The NBA: It’s Back

The NBA kicked off last evening, and thanks to only having Eric Gordon and Drew Gooden going for my fantasy team, I’m in last place! (Long season. Other guys had full rosters to play. I’ll be OK. I think. I hope.) A few observations on last night’s C’s-Cavs game: + I will never get sick of LeBron [...]

Opening day: Shawn Marion talks about the Dallas Mavericks

Matrix feeling better about things

Every day that goes by, Shawn Marion said he feels a little bouncier and a little more like the guy who is better known as the Matrix.

Shawn Marion already has made a couple of soft jump-hook shots in the paint and that ability is paying dividends in a hurry in that the perimeter is opening up for the shooters. The Mavericks blew open a 12-5 lead early on and Marion just made another bucket from close range. By the way, Jason Kidd is squaring up against Gilbert Arenas most of the time. --Eddie Sefko

Dallas Mavericks ‘09-10 Season Preview

Another van glorious season of NBA basketball is about to begin and Hooped Up does a quick and dirty preview of all 30 clubs. The Mavericks reloaded this offseason hoping their championship window hasn’t closed and that’s why they got Shawn Marion. I would love to be as optimistic (or rich) as Mark Cuban is about [...]

Discussion: Sign of things to come?

It's just one game, but one a lot of Dallas Mavericks fans thought they could win. Dirk takes 25 shots from the field and 13 free throw attempts and scores 34 points, more than Shawn Marion and Jason Terry combined. The Wizards had more rebounds, more assists, a better shooting percentage and a better free-throw percentage. So what are your thoughts on the season opener? It's just...
