Win Again?

Yay they got another win! I mean I guess it doesn’t really matter that much because the win was just against the Memphis Grizzlies but at the end of the day, a win is a win. Jason Terry and Shawn Marion were the big men in this game. When asked about the game, Shawn Marion responded by saying “We concentrated on getting some transition offense. We were able to get out and run.” The Mavericks rolled the Grizzlies in the dust during the fourth quarter during which they only made 12 points. The situation became extremely sad for the poor Grizzlies, especially because Terry and Marion were coming out really strong and making sure they took advantage of each rebound and turnover made by the Memphis Grizzlies.

Before this the Mavericks were not doing too great because they were virtually tied with the Memphis Grizzlies for fifth place in the western conference. And ironically Jason Terry said exactly the same thing that I mentioned earlier in this blog when he was asked about the game. Terry said “It was a good bounce back for us. Obviously we're fighting with all these teams for playoff positioning and this was a crucial game for us, as are all of them.” This statement proves that the team members of the Dallas Mavericks also understand how crucial it is to win every game from now on, especially since the finals are coming up soon!

When the same question comes up about how the Mavericks are doing for being the “Returning Champions” many people still underestimate them. Most say that at around the 50 game mark last year the Mavericks were in the top three in the western conference where as this year they are having trouble holding onto the fifth standing. This type of downfall from last year is what is making the fans question the facts that if the Mavericks were put in another tough position in the playoffs, would they be able to come out on top in it? I guess everybody will just have to wait and see from now on.
