And Now, A Return to Normalcy

Posted by Rob Mahoney on March 19, 2010 under News |

It’s been nearly a week, and The Two Man Game has been all tumbleweeds and deafening silence. So what gives?

Well, for one, my incredibly poor ability to plan ahead. I was headed out for a short vacation, and all but assumed that Wi-Fi was in the cards at my hotel. It’s a staple of modern life, after all: electricity, running water, internet access. Groups of huts are deemed civilizations based on those criteria, right?

Not so. It was nice to take a step back from the game for a minute, and I was fortunate enough to be gone during a soft spot in the Mavs’ schedule: just two games in six days. But sorry for the lack of notice, the lack of updates during my absence, and the general lack of anything here at TMG.

So what’d I miss? Did the Mavs’ big loss to the Knicks validate any of John Hollinger’s rankings and opinions? Is the Mavs win over the Bulls still a victory, or a disappointment because of how competitive it was when it had no need to be? Are we to the point where J.J. Barea and Rodrigue Beaubois can live in harmony, each providing their own unique brand of reserve guard play? Bombard me with your thoughts on the Mavs of late.
