NBA East might have passed West JAN HUBBARD NBA commentary sometimes resembles the focus of an obsessive teen.Last year, it was fashionable to marvel almost daily at the depth and quality of teams in the western conference. It became so severe in some quarters that playoff revolutionaries wanted to overthrow the system and seed teams with the 16 best regular-season records in the playoffs regardless of conference.That was supposed to be the intelligent thing to do because the playoffs were unfair to the superior West.Ignored by this well-meaning but short-sighted group of individuals was the history of the NBA and the consistent shift of power between conferences. Let’s think back to, oh, the ’90s, when the Bulls were winning six titles.With teams such as New York, Miami, Indiana and Orlando in the East, was anyone talking about revamping the system because the big, bad East was dominating?And the Finals did seem to send a message last season. The Lakers emerged from the powerful West but went down with Star Telegram5 things to watch in Cowboys-Eagles game BY CLARENCE E. HILL JR. Do-or-die situation1This is it for the Cowboys. It’s do or die. It’s win or go home. Pick a cliché, because it all applies. A season that began with a Super Bowl-or-bust mantra can find new life and a chance to realize those dreams with a win today. A loss, however, and the Cowboys miss out on the playoffs and might be remembered as the most disappointing and underachieving team in franchise history.Final-game woes2To make the playoffs, the Cowboys must do something they haven’t done since 1999 — win their regular-season finale. The Cowboys beat the New York Giants 26-18 in the final regular-season game in 1999 to clinch a playoff spot. It also must be noted that the Cowboys last won a season finale on the road in 1995 when they beat the Cardinals 37-13 en route to the fifth and most recent Super Bowl title in franchise history.No Romo turnovers3It’s real simple. If quarterback Tony Romo takes care of the football and avoids Star TelegramClemmensen picks up win Saturday Devils G Scott Clemmensen came away with a 4-2 victory in New York Saturday, making 31 saves in the process. The Devils had been shut out in their prior two games, giving Clemmensen back to back tough losses. Clemmensen has now allowed either one or two goals in his last five starts. sportsline.comMavs’ Nowitzki appears clear to play against Clippers By JEFF CAPLAN LOS ANGELES — It appears the Dallas Mavericks will head into this afternoon’s game against the Los Angeles Clippers with leading scorer Dirk Nowitzki available for service.The 7-footer faced a possible league suspension as a result of the Flagrant-2 foul called on him Friday night for striking utah jazz forward Matt Harpring in the face during the fourth quarter. A Flagrant-2 foul carries an automatic ejection and review by the league. But with no word filtering out of the NBA’s New York offices Saturday night, it appeared Nowitzki had escaped further penalty.A Mavericks official said Nowitzki was in contact with NBA officials Saturday afternoon, but that he was not made aware of a decision.Nowitzki atypically refused to talk about the play after Friday’s game, which was generally viewed as his displeasure with the call. Coach Rick Carlisle cancelled Saturday’s scheduled practice at the Clippers’ practice facility and Nowitzki again Star TelegramTV Clicks and Picks | Analysis and predictions Today's games Time Pick New England at Buffalo 10 a.m. (Ch. 7) Patriots, 34-20 Patriots have won 10 in a row against the Bills.

Memories of the 24-win season are slowly fading in the roadrunner Mike D’Antoni offense, and the Knicks are looking at the big picture.Last week, they had lost four consecutive games and were 11-16. They had gone on a road trip and played the Suns and Lakers tough before losing, but they refused to get too excited about being close.'At this point, five games under .500 — every time is an important time for us,' Al Harrington told the New York Post. 'We’ve had enough feel-good losses. Feel-good losses are still losses.'That’s progress. Last year, Thomas would have been ecstatic with feel-good losses.The Knicks may have a difficult time making the playoffs, but their progress is indisputable.Heat wave — almostThe Heat is clearly in a rebuilding mode with six of its top nine players having less th Star Telegram1 2 3 4 |
