Open Game Thread #56 Bulls at Dallas Mavericks
[UPDATE: You can find my post-game comments here. -Matt]
[Thanks to joemoses for tonight's game thread. -Matt]
Finally, we can play against Jason Kidd with a little height. Thabo and Hughes hopefully will chase Kidd all night. That only leaves us the problem of Josh Howard. Noah should give Dirk a lot of trouble (which should be the matchup, but probably won't. He'll probably be on the larger Dampier). Tyrus has been playing great lately, lets see him get up to 30 minutes. The more Gooden and Hughes play with the team, the better they should blend in. Everybody's healthy enough to play.
Bulls have lost 17 of 19 to the Mavs. They are 23-3 at home this year.

I thought on Kirk's play
Dallas has benefitted with home court calls on all the questionable out of bounds deflections, and has a few key threes, but don't look good to me. Credit Bull defense or Kidd not acclimated yet? Game should be tied.
I hate being reminded constant now why I hated Drew Gooden's "game". Let's NOT see Du. And where's Noah been? Tyrus on Howard ('tho Deng did fine), Noah on Dirk, Gray or Gooden on Dampier/Lambier (LOL, bullish!). And with Kirk out, (surely even Boylan can figure it out now) Thabo checks
