Mavericks 112 Warriors 99
Well it wasn't exactly pretty, but the Mavs did what they needed to do last night. The good news is that they were able to win fairly convincingly without even coming close to playing their best basketball... and to top it all off, the whole "getting in their heads" argument seems to have flip flopped, as Baron Davis and Stephen Jackson, the Warriors' team leaders, each bitched their way to an early exit.
I'm not fully confident that the Mavs are back in control mentally (especially with two tough away games coming up), but they finally got the Golden State monkey off their backs, and that is certainly a start. The Warriors probably can't play a lot better than they did, but the Mavs still have to get a lot better before they can say they're playing like themselves again. And thats a good sign.

Ohhhhh, burn! Baron Davis just called called a baby!
i liked stack's little burn after the game. in response to davis and jackson's ejections, he said something like "oh ya know it's just a game and WE KNOW THEY AIN'T GONNA DO NOTHIN..." HAHAHA!
I can put the ball in the hole! I can pass it around too! Holy sheep shit!
