Win Again?
With the big man, Dirk Nowitzki, back into rhythm everyone watching the Cavs and Mavs game was expecting the Mavs to sweep it away. This is not exactly what happen though. Nowitzki back from his strained leg has been struggling for the past couple of games but this game he was back to his ten time all-star status. He had a season high of thirty points with numerous rebounds and assists. Though he led his team, it was not enough and the Dallas Mavericks ended up losing to the Cavaliers 98-87. Another main point to the loss was said to be the fact that point guard Jason Kidd was missing. Kidd had a straigned left calf and as of yet the doctors haven't given a time at which he will be back. With all these injuries, the team is attempting to keep itself in rhythm to be the champions again. But yet again the question is the same is as before, will they be victorious once again? One thing the Mavs know they have to do if they want to win the trophy once again is not let one loss get to them and effect their next game. Something like this happened in the Cavs game on last saturday. The game before that the Mavericks had just lost to the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma Thunder. The fact that they lost those mentally affected them and the way they played their game against the Cavaliers. Everyone knows the Cavaliers aren't a good team anymore and the Mavericks could have beat them but with the right mentality not present, the Mavs were unable to clench that win. Hopefully this losing streak ends right here and the returning champs take the trophy back to Dallas once again!
