I agree that the Mavs do indeed need to work on their defense.

I watched them play the lakers. I saw them quit doing what had been
working and the lakers came back and won. wish they'd continue doing
what works as opposed to trying to do something to just hold back
opponents. i dont think many games of any sport are won that way.

I dont know all the ins and outs of the game. so i could be wrong.
But i believe that a low post game is where the players are active
directly under the basket. which seems to fitr dirk. he prefers to
play the perimeter. but still he manages 10 rebounds a game.
amazing!!!

I believe that this is the 2nd year avery johnson has played with the
mavs. i am certain it is no longer than that.

sure is nice to talk about the mavs

me if I sound like I don't know alot...I am just learning. Nowitzki,
Nash and Finely are the big three...although Van Exel is really good
too. Nash is quite creative in his plays and although he is 6'3", he
seems smaller and more agile. The impression I get (and I could be
wrong) is that the Mavs still need to work on their defense...They
are amazing with the 3 point shots, but they will play really well on
both offense and defense and then just slip on the defense (like
against Lakers)...the fourth quarter was like they had given up
almost. I would like to hear more about Mark Cuban's background...I
don't know anything about him really. They are a really awesome team
this year! How long has Avery been with the Mavs? I know he used to
be with the Spurs...my brother went to a David Robinson basketball
camp and Avery was one of the instructors. What does low-post game
mean? I read an article and it said Nowitzki needs to work on his
low-post game.
