The williams looked damn good and we are finally lighting up our threes, however I was really really disappointed to not see Burks on the floor. FREEEEEEEEEEEEE BURKS
There's nothing more enjoyable that watching that jackass Cuban and his theatrics from the stands. He must have made the traveling signal a half dozen times.
Wish Burks would have hit one FT. He was the only one who didn't score a point.
Don't see why anyone is bitching. The Jazz played an exceptional 2nd half. I'm ridiculously excited at how promising their fast breaks, 3 point shooting, and defense can be this season.
And the two Williams' will prove to be exceptional pickups this year.

The Super team Lakers going 0-2 to start the season might just be more enjoyable than the Cuban theatrics.
I enjoyed watching the game. I was happy with the defensive effort in the second half, although you could argue that the Mavs being tired factored into things. The Jazz rebounded the ball extremely well. I know everyone's annoyed (or in the case of a few people, beyond annoyed) about Burks not getting in until the end, and I am as well. But in Corbin's defense, Foye played well. Anyway, here's to an 82-0 season.

Mavs shot 10-16 from 3 in the first half, and 1-6 in the second half. Much better.

As long as we're winning Corbin can split the minutes however he sees fit AFAIC.
I thought Jefferson's minutes and play were a sign of good things this season. I think 29 (prefer 20-25 but...) was a decent number I thought 11 shot attempts was a great number(wish he hit a better number but I think he will most games), I 4-4 free throws was an improvement for him. He looked like he tried to create contact to get to the FT line. I though he had 1 great inside pass to Caroll and thought he was looking for the pass more. I also thought his defense in the second half was good enough for this team. He played the pick and roll decent. I though he was more aggressive getting boards especially on offensive rebounds.
He was not perfect but I thought he showed improvement and fit in with this team better. If he played like this and got his shooting percentage above .500 averaging 15 point and 10 + rebounds than we are a much better team this year.
We will see what happens when we are on the road and points are hard to come by if we go back to the stale offense where we pass into Jefferson and the ball never comes out every possession. I hope he really is committed to better defense and better passing.
