Mark Cuban stating his opinion on a subject? I don’t think that I have heard that one before… “Any potential basket interference in the last two minutes of a game or overtime should be reviewed,” Cuban said he wrote in his email to the league. “I didn’t bring up that play up at all. “You’ve (More)…

The Dallas Mavericks are the defending NBA Champions, and they currently sit with a record of 34-26. That is good enough to be positioned with the sixth seed out West right now, but also only 2 1/2 games ahead of the hard-charging Suns who occupy the ninth spot. The Maverick players are saying their goal is to repeat at the moment, and I am sure they want too, but it is hard to argue...

I would call Vince Carter’s season, which has seen him post career lows in pretty much every statistical category, a disappointment. However, a disappointment is defined as “the feeling of sadness or displeasure caused by the nonfulfillment of one’s hopes or expectations.” No one actually had any hopes or expectations here, did they? I suppose Carter’s been a bit...

Delonte West got a little too friendly during the Mavericks triple-overtime loss to the Jazz on Monday night, and it earned him a technical foul. While playing three overtimes can be exhausting and frustrating, West’s unsportsmanlike moment came in the second quarter. As you can see from the video above, Delonte was unhappy with Gordon Hayward after the two got tangled up, so...

“The low of lows in sportsmanship.” I don’t know, we have seen baseball players spit on umpires, that is pretty low. But looks like Delonte West of the Dallas Mavericks had another one of his mental lapses, as he stuck his finger in Gordon Haywards ear. Never really catch him lick his finger first, but [...]

The end of the game could not come soon enough for our NBA Champs, Dallas Mavericks. They had come to play and it showed early in the game as they ended the first quarter with a 30-16 lead, but sloppy plays, not paying attention and lackluster defense, almost cost them the game.
Portland was without their star, LaMarcus Aldridge due to a hip issue and it appears that he will miss...

In what has to one of the most unusual fouls in NBA history, oddball Dallas Mavericks guard Delonte West gave Utah Jazz forward Gordon Hayward a "Wet Willie" during last night's game.
It happened during the second quarter of the game when West walked over to his opponent and stuck his finger in Hayward's ear.
Jazz announcers jumped all over the act.

Delonte West is good at getting under opponent’s skin, but this took it to a new level. Delonte West stuck his finger in the ear of Gordon Hayward when the Utah Jazz and Dallas Mavericks squared off on Monday night It is hard to not feel bad for Hayward during the fiasco, while at the same time you also feel bad that Delonte would actually stoop that low. This was definitely...

Delonte West is usually great for a quote or funny story. Everyone remembers the “Hot Sauce in My Bag” video and the “Planes, Trains, & Automobiles feature on Jim Rome Is Burning. The latest from Delonte, while interesting, is pretty disgusting. Fair warning, the photos Delonte tweeted after injuring his finger last night are pretty [...]
Far too often, when national analysts paint their complete landscape of the league’s best defenders, where they lead our eyes seems to be guided by image rather than reality. With the access to the sort of numbers the Mavs themselves use, can we make a case for Shawn Marion (and his 'Inner Dog') as a Defensive Player of the Year finalist? Easily. You just need to know where...

After the Dallas Mavericks swept them out of last year's postseason, the Los Angeles Lakers now could return the favor. Possibly doing it without Kobe Bryant might further build their confidence for a potential playoff rematch.
While coach Mike Brown is expected to return, Bryant's status remains up in the air as the surging Lakers go for a season sweep of the defending...

Tongue ‘n Stink: Vince Carter and Shane Battier both have some issues with their on court personal hygiene.
Apparently, NBA players can be just as disgusting as anyone. In a game between the Mavericks and Grizzlies last week, Dallas guard VINCE CARTER gets rather “offensive” with Memphis star RUDY GAY, causing Gay to get quite defensive in turn…

After a close loss against a team they've been unable to beat this season, the Dallas Mavericks will try to bounce back against an opponent to which they seemingly can't lose.
If that's the case again Monday, the Utah Jazz can probably start making plans for the offseason.
The visiting Mavericks look for an eighth consecutive victory over the Jazz on Monday night, while...
