The night belonged to J.J. Barea again coming off the bench to score 26 points, his sixth 20+ game this season. The Mavs will hit the road again to face the Detroit Pistons on Friday, but their next home game against the Houston Rockets may make or break their playoff hopes.

Andrew Bogut and the Golden State Warriors improve to 65-7 beating the Dallas Mavericks with the three-point shot and fastbreak points. Mavs pulled close in the 4th quarter again, only to lose by 8 to the Warriors, 128-120. by Rodney Fisher On the night his former team gives him a championship ring, David Lee's 12pts, 9 boards, and 6 assists could not help get the win.

Dallas Cowboys looking to trade out of the fourth spot. Sources within the Dallas Cowboys organization say the franchise is actively seeking trade partners to move down out of the #4 spot. by Rodney Fisher The Cowboys have been busy during the NFL free agency period locking up current players and adding new key position players like Alfred Morris at running back. As much as fans, myself including, have been salivating at the idea of drafting Tony Romo's replacement with the fourth pick, the team brass have been kicking the tires on a trade down to gain more late round picks. There is no question. Not having Tony Romo and Dez Bryant for the majority of the 2015 season cost them big. There only reward was a high draft pick fueling the fire for Romo's replacement. Coming off yet another clavicle surgery in the offeseason, the team is content starting the season with him, Kellen Moore, and another veteran to be named later. That leaves the door open for the Cowboys to a...

Pondering the possibilities of the Dallas Mavericks to make the playoffs. Even with Chandler Parsons out for the rest of the season, the Dallas Mavericks can still make the playoffs. by Rodney Fisher Four teams all vying for the last three playoff spots in the Western Conference. What do the Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets, Utah Jazz, and Portland Trailblazers have in common? They are all losing. The Mavs high hopes for securing a #5 seed have collapsed since the All-Star break. Poor bench play, an experimental small lineup, and the poor play of their young nucleus of Parsons and Wes Matthews have been the biggest factors. The news that Parsons will miss yet another playoff run for the Mavs is not the death blow most fans think it is. Looking back at how the Mavs played at the beginning of the season, you see them taking advantage of a jump-shot heavy league with Zsa Zsa Pachula surprisingly becoming an instant double-double. Keep in mind that he barely missed being the o...

Anthony Davis will miss the remainder of the NBA season and Olympic Rio Games.  The news of Anthony Davis, the 23-year old basketball phenom, will mess the rest of the NBA season to finally fix his bad shoulder and knee disturbs me. by Rodney Fisher You draft a 19-year old freak of nature, NCAA champion, and Olympic gold medalist as your cornerstone building block for a franchise and a city to promote, but because you want to remain marginally relevant and stay in the conversation with free agents you allow your him to forego getting his torn labrum fixed for three years? I don't see the rationale here by the Pelicans to let this linger so long. "If I think about, 'Oh well, I can keep playing with my knee and all this,' I think that's just being selfish." I commend Davis for playing through off-and-on pain in his left shoulder, but son you have to put your young body first when it comes to a team that can not make the playoffs or put adequate pi...
