Mavericks play tonight against the Cavaliers. The game is in Pittsburgh and is going to be shown on HDNet, you can see which channel that is here.

Today Sefko writes about Nowitzki having tons more energy this preseason and even Dirk has noticed it.

I definitely notice it, he said. It usually takes me awhile to get rolling, but I feel a lot more energetic than I normally do in the preseason. I basically didn't compete at all this summer. No three-on-three or anything. I feel great.

In the same article it mentions that the Mavs have until 5 p.m. Monday to finalize the 15 man roster. They're in a sitchy-ashun since Shawne Williams is owed more than 2.4 million bucks, eek!

There was a live chat yesterday on ESPN with Marc Stein and Rob Mahoney answering Mavs questions.

Even Beaubois managed to get one in.

What is my ceiling?

Today Marc Stein talks about Kevin McHale making an impression with the Mavericks while he was here and how Nowitzki enjoyed it.

More than anything, I think I picked his brain.

Just great, Dirk is a zombie now.

Finally the Mavs have announced two finalists for the PA job at the AAC. I'm a bit biased for Michael Taylor since he has that deep-ish voice and I love how he introduces Dirk.

This was my first time writing this up so I hope you enjoyed it.

A great exaggeration in the title but you never know. I've always said one day it will be Mavs/Cavs.

Diop traded?

bruce182 — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 22:45:40 -0000

I got a text from cbs11 saying that the Mavs are close to trading Diop to the Bobcats for Matt Carroll and Ryan Hollins. I haven't seen anything else on any other sites, as it's probably just developing. Here are the player profile's from nba.com.
