Leading Off (04/26/2021)
Proud of
Mavs Sweep Lakers. Even without LeBron James and with a very limited Anthony Davis, a split would have been understandable, especially since the Mavs played Saturday night’s game without Kristaps Porzingis and Josh Richardson. But Luka Doncic solved the Lakers’ double-teams finally, racking up 13 assists, and Dwight Powell had 25 points and 9 rebounds, as the Mavs came back from 17 points down to win going away. Big dub.
Joe Tillotson, RIP. I knew Joe best as one of the owners of Barley House, but that was just one of many bars and restaurants he was behind. The 53-year-old succumbed to prostate cancer on April 22.
