Jason Kidd came bounding off the bench and delivered a flying chest bump to Eddie Jones moments after he threw down an alley-oop dunk the other night against Golden State.

Josh Howard repeatedly attacked the basket without trepidation. Jason Terry hurtled out of bounds to save a loose ball, resulting in a reverse layup when Kidd delivered a nifty pass to Howard.

There were primal screams and fist pumps galore.

Then there was Dirk Nowitzki lumbering up and down the court with an injured ankle and knee, doing everything he could possibly do to lift the Mavericks past the Warriors.

The Mavs – who ran a tired Golden State team playing its fourth game in five nights into submission – is the team we need to see play each of the final seven games this season, not the group of tin men we've seen way too often against the Western Conference's best teams.

Complete artical

It's hard to understand how NBA players can be burned out or bored with the salary that each game brings, but there has definitely been something wrong with the home team.

"The word 'swagger' has several letters in it," Johnson said. "And we don't want to stop on the 's.' We need to keep going."

Where the f*** does he come up with crap like this?

"AJ is a sucker, and he doesn't stop on the 's' either."

Wow, that's a pretty bold statement.

At least the article called him out, which I hope the media fully picks up on this spring and summer. It's a fact that anything short of the WCF is a failure, and those responsible should be held accountable.

You don't think the local media call him out enough?

Not compared to what we've been giving him - I always hated how our depth of knowledge exceeds that of the media outlets. They're privy to the interviews and behind the scenes aspects, but we seem to know more about the pulse of the team...

You mean you didn't get the invitation to Kidd's signing party?
