Preseason
So I probably won’t be posting much during the preseason games, it’s just preseason which literally means nothing to me. It’s always experimental lineups that we usually see. It was good to see Marion post 26 points in his debut, following up with 15 in his second game.
Josh Howard still is out along with a few others. I’ll probably report back when the Mavericks play against the Cavs two games in a row in the coming week and finishing the preseason against Houston, that will probably determine how we’ll supposedly playing against a team (the Cavs) that most are saying will be destined to go to the Finals and against Houston, which likely won’t be as big as contenders this season since Yao is out with an injury.
Honestly, I don’t see Shaq helping out any, the Suns thought they would get that type of support from the big guy and they didn’t even make the playoffs. It’s clear Shaq just wants another ring before he calls it quits and the Cavs likely have a chance, unless they can’t get past the Celtics or Magic, which is highly probable if Garnett stays healthy and Carter can assume a bigger role than Turkoglu made while in Orlando.
The Mavericks are currently 2-1 in the preseason.
