Mavs v Lakers game thread

[Marqus Howard]

Anyone think Buzz is watching?

Probably. I'm more hopeful that potential recruits are watching though. JaJuan and Embiid, in particular.

I like the frequent mentions of Marquette, and the fact that they talked about Jae during break " he's a rookie that's playing like anything but."

Gotta love Jae starting 4th quarter.

Nice rebound, nice deflection.


LOTS of PT.

Lakers suck because they're the lakers.  Sorry DJO.

Elder Mayo with very tough 2nd half.

[Jay Bee]

Eddy Curry looks to be in great shape.

Nice props for Jae.

On the post-game show, Charles Barkley said "I really like Jae Crowder's game"

[Wade for President]

DVR'd the game and watched it this morning (I knew I was a diehard MU fan, but when I'm watching a Mavs game before work, just to see Jae, I realize that I might have problems - hence my participation in this MU support group).

What surprised me was how comfortable Jae looked out there in his first NBA game (under the bright lights of the Staples center nonetheless).  His performance spoke to what we already know, and what Buzz preaches: Guys who are switcheables that play with heart & hustle, can compete in the NBA.

Great praise from Sir Chuck and Reggie Miller ("Jae Crowder looked fantastic tonight").

Should be interesting to watch the season unfold for the Mavs.  Will Crowder's pt be effected negatively when Dirk and Kaman come back?  Will the legs of Vince and Marion tire as the season pushes on?

I can openly say that I'm a Bulls, Miami, Blazers, and Mavs fan (hard for me to cheer for the Knicks and Lakers).

With his efficiency and versatility, Jae strikes me as one of those guys a coach has a hard time pulling off the court. A "glue guy" so to speak. Hopefully that proves to be the case. The Mavs made their nice little run when the game appeared to possibly be getting away when Jae scored his 8 points in a brief spurt in the second quarter. Great to see.
