    The Hornets better:

    a. Win at home (they are 0-11 in Dallas in the last 11 games played there).

    b. Stop Jason Kidd and Jason Terry (combined for 57 pts last night).

    c. hope CP plays out of this world in his 1st ever postseason

    or they might be beaten and beaten very soundly by the Mavericks.

    Dallas is probably the most hungry team in the entire NBA considering they have been totally humiliated the past 2 playoffs.

    I saw a new dimension to them last night and if they play with that kind of fire in the playoffs, they will be a tough out for anyone.

    It's always bad news when you lose to someone 111-98 and their best players (Dirk and Josh Howard) are a combined 10-36.

    halfway right.

    The Hornets are Saturday Tuesday. :)

    All part of the NBA's yearly effort to make the first round of the playoffs last 6 weeks.

    Yeah I meant the start date. :( Can't believe I have to wait all the way until Tuesday to see game 2. Insane when regular season games are usually every other day it seems.

    Very true, their pride has to be wounded. Mavs can be good if someone besides Dirk can knockdown jumpers and everyone drives to the basket.
