Mavericks vs Rockets preview: 3 thoughts before the intergovernmental competitors meet

It is rare that an intrasty rivalry game is a side story for events outside the corridors, but here we are. When the Dallas Mavericks return home to face the Houston rockets, the NBA world is waiting for the collective fan to react to a franchise that hurt them and the phenomenon we loved.

All eyes on you

While Anthony Davis hopes to “return to city life”, the Maverick Propaganda machine is anything but dead. Maverick fans fans have poured several media for how they will receive the organization on Saturday. Our grief about the direction in which the Adelsons have introduced our team belongs to us. Nobody can determine how we process or express our pain. In addition, the pretended concerns about the physical integrity of the players and the employees of the outsiders appear hyperbolic. That means we hope that no real lines will be crossed.

A lukewarm welcome

On the square is the big story that comes to the game on Saturday evening, the debut of Anthony Davis. The forehead aims to give life back to the city – a suitable metaphor when you consider that the fandom of the Dir State Mavs is fandom. The Mavericks hope that Davis can continue where he stopped with the Lakers, where he achieved an average of almost 26 points and 12 boards per game.

He has to do this without a PJ Washington PJ in fan. Washington, perhaps the most popular Maverick (apart from Dwight Powell, of course), is spent on the game on Saturday. The Powell mentioned above and the new teammate Caleb Martin will also join him on the list of injuries – both that deal with hip injuries.

Steven Adams may be the only scratch for the rockets on the Houston front. Although the backup center rolled its ankle last week, Houston has a lot of depth in her front court to share the load. Her all -star center, Alperen Şengün, set up 17 and 12 in his last excursion against Dallas. Exciting you to try to give a tone.

Houston has a problem

Although Houston is sitting almost up in the west, he has been cold lately. Apart from a victory against the Lowly Hawks on January 28th^THHouston has lost five times in a row – including two against the even lower Brooklyn networks. You are still a top four -four in the west and only sit three games of the grizzlies for 2^nd – and by the way just a game against Lukas Lakers. Expect that the rockets will be desperate to correct their stubborn ship with a victory over the Mavericks in one of the most expected Maverick games in recent history.

As you can see

The game starts at 2:00 p.m. CST on KFAA or MAVSTV
