gsuteke Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 VS @ The Good Guys The Bad Guys ESPN.com Hawks/Mavs Preview The Hawks look to win six straight for the first time this decade as they try for a sweep of their season series with the Mavericks on Saturday. Atlanta has already beaten Dallas once this season, winning 101-94 in its season opener behind 28 points from Johnson on Nov. 2 to snap a four-game losing streak against the Mavericks. This would be the Hawks' first series sweep of the Mavs since 2003-04. A 107-95 win over Indiana on Wednesday night gave Atlanta a 9-3 record in December, marking its first nine-win month since going 9-7 in March 2002. Dallas, meanwhile, has struggled on offense in two straight losses. After a five-game winning streak, the Mavs are averaging 85.5 points while shooting 39.6 percent in their last two contests. In an 88-81 loss to Cleveland at home Thursday night, Dallas shot 20.0 percent (4-for-20) from 3-point range. Dallas is 13-3 at home, where it has won three straight and eight of nine against Atlanta. Dirk Nowitzki had 28 points in November's matchup with the Hawks, and is averaging 27.5 in his last four games against them. He paced the Mavs on Thursday with 19 points and 20 rebounds, but played the whole game with tape around his shooting wrist and thumb and complained of a groin problem after the third quarter. The Mavs are all about Dirk and so is this thread Cheryl Miller: Dirk, do all women in Germany hide muskrats in their armpits? I gotta throw a Penalty Flag on this German chick It's so bad over there..... Dirk: Dunkashein. I am honored to be named the Fairest Maiden in all of Germania How bad is it over there? Nowitzki Family Photo Seriously, does this guy not have the figure of a 12 year old German girl? And what is it with these Pro Athletes and their affinity for the same gender? Dirk and an anonymous partner participate in a birthing class Eeeewwww stop it Dirk that tickles! David Hasselhoff is playing Dallas? Hell Yes!!!! Dirk you do know you don't have to wear that uniform everywhere you go, don't you? I didn't know they let white guys be Globetrotters! Hey Dirk, that's the wrong trophy buddy. DWade got YOUR trophy! That Sucker got Owned And they KNOW it! Biggest playoff choke in history.... Hasselhoff cancels his US Tour That's O.K. there's always the Bar my friend! Viva la Hawks! .

Premium Member AtLaS Posted December 29, 2007 Premium Member Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 get some confidence in this team! We've won five in a row and are playing great defense, this is a winnable game IMO. Defensive rebounding and slowing down their "nobody" players is important.

MikeWilksBooth Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Devin Harris and his beating the man off the dribble is what im worried about. Luckily they dont really have any low post scorers or guys who are athletic finishers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJJJ Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Wow, they couldnt hit anything against CLE, figures that they would hit everything against us. I kinda had a feeling this hot start was coming though, not this bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TroyMcClure Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 I just thought of a helluva drinking game. Take a shot every time Smitty pronounces Dirk's name NoWitski, not the german way, Like NoVitski. Last Mavs game he said Dirk's name wrong about 50 times!

LongTimeHawksFan Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 is there something special you have to do to get the atdhe.fr site to play the game? Click on the link and it comes up saying some foreign language but no game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusBoyIsBack Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 WTF are they going to shoot perfect from the three point line all night? That one was a desperation shot 7 feet beyond the arc by a guy who shot 0/10 in his last game Man our luck sucks with this schedule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
