Warriors looking to spoil 2008 for the Mavericks


Houston just plain sucks. Even when they made their run in the 2nd quarter with the help of the refs, you never felt as if the Warriors would lose the game. All it took was a flip of the switch and the Warriors coasted to their second straight road victory.

Tonight, the Warriors look to cap off their road trip with a win over Dallas which would give them a 3-0 sweep. These two teams have met once already, earlier this season when Jackson was out. Dallas won that game 120-115.

However, since Jackson has been back, the Warriors have compiled a 18-7 record. So, tonight's game will be the real matchup between these two teams. I'm guessing the Mavericks will come out with something to prove while the Warriors will go through the motions after partying hard for the New Years. So it should be a close and entertaining game.
