Utah Jazz beat the Dallas Mavericks ...bad

By K. King

Dallas, Tx - The Mavericks had a cold shooting night...not only was it in the 17 degrees outside the American Airlines Center (AAC) so was it inside. the Mavericks struggle the entire game. The game tied at 18 points in the first quarter, The Jazz went on a 8-0 run for the rest of the period taking a 8 point lead into the 2nd qurter. I asked coach Carlise about offensive boards giving Mavs an opportunity for second chance points. Coach had this to say, "We had 14 tonight, we just didn't play well".

In tonight's game, Mavs center, Erick Dampier had 6 offensive rebounds and 7 rebounds for the Mavs. Damp has been performing well this season. Again, I once compare him to former Mavs center James Donaldson...all height and no hands. Damp needs to learn to dunk the ball each time he gets it especially under the basket. Makes no sense when he wants to lay it up and miss it. A wimp move. Dunk it!!!!

You can count of Dirk to get his points each game. This dude is a natural born scorer. Nowitzki scored 29 points, 8 rebounds and 10 for 10 in free throw attempts in tonight's game.

Josh Howard (left quadriceps) and Drew Gooden (left ring finger) were both out due to injuries.

HOW 'BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!

By K. King
Arlington, Tx - Sweet Vindication. The Cowboys beat the Philadelphia Eagles 34-17 at Cowboy Stadium in front of the largest playoff crowd, ever in NFL history. Attendance recorded 92,951 fans showed up in the cold to watch and be part of Cowboy history.

This is a huge win for Jerry Jones in the new Cowboy Stadium as he hosted former President George W. Bush and coach Andie Reid Philadelphia Eagles. This marks the Cowboys third straight win against the Eagles this season and advances the Cowboys to the NFC divisional game against the Minnosota Vikings. Kick off is Sunday Jan. 17th at noon in Minnosato the Metrodome.

Bum Phillips is a proud papa, son and Cowboys coach, Wade Phillips, no longer has a 0-4 career playoff record. Jerry Jones, with 3 Super Bowl rings have waited 12 years to get his team back to the playoffs.

F__ __ K !! Drew Gooden word after finger injury

By K.King

San Antonio, TX - Dallas Mavericks beat the San Antonio Spurs 112-103, on their turf. In the second quarter, Drew Gooden, injured his finger while defending Spurs guard, Ginobili. On a play defending Ginobili, Gooden, the tough defender that he is dislocated his left right ring finger. He and Mavs head trainer Casey Smith ran off the court to try to put the finger back in place while yelling for the doctor. Later Gooden would return to the game with his finger taped, he wouldn't play for the remaining of the game.

Erick Dampier hit a 3-pointer with seconds left in the 4th quarter to seal the defeat....well, the defeat was eminent, Damp added the icing on the cake. Damp haven't hit a 3 pointer since his rookie year with Indiana. How long has he been in the league:)?. After the game Damp had the to say: " Going down the stretch Jet saw I was open, I shot it". Laughing he says, "a shooter know when it's good".


This is the Mavs 13th win on the road in San Antonio tonight. Jason Terry and Dirk Nowitzki lead the way. Drew Gooden is a soldier! He played hard in the first half suffering a dislocated right finger while defending Spurs Genobili on a defensive stop play, he had to the leave the game in the 2nd quarter. Gooden returned with tape finger, continued play.


Jason "JT" Terry had an explosive game in the fourth quarter knocking down key shots. He and Dirk paired together down the stretch, not forgetting Jason Kidd are the best under pressure. Tim Thomas and rookie guard Roddy Beaubois played some minutes and change the energy of the game. Hope coach insert Chris umphries in the game gien hin an opportunity to play some minutes while this team is healthy and to get in on some of this NBA action going down the stretch of the season. Dallas has one of the better scoring benches in the league.
