Well, that was a rough one ...

Chris Paul had another stellar night against the Mavericks, recording 32 points and 17 assists for his second double-double in as many games as the Hornets pulled a rout of the Mavs.

The Mavs are now down in the series 0-2 ... only 13 times has a team come back from that deficit in a seven-game series. One of the most notable bounce-backs? The Miami Heat in 2006, who came back from down 0-2 against the Mavs in the finals.

Your Turn: Can the Mavs rally? What do they need to do to be competitive in this series? Tell us in the comments below.

You have to go back to 2000 for answers. Tyron lue made Iverson's life very difficult, I believe he can do the best one on one with him. This is the wrong team to double team, its almost ike they want it. I dont know if they can turn it around. I'll make that decision in a week or so.

The Mavs are done. Dirk needs some help. Josh is horrible right now. He needs to play like the All-star he once was. Avery doesn't look like he's able to figure out how to adjust. This is the third year in a row of it being extremely embarrassing to be a Mavs fan.

This team is done! It's time for Cuban to blow this thing up and put everyone on the block. Dirk has proven he's not a leader, only a role player and the rest of this team is about as soft as toilet tissue. It will be difficult because they have no picks in 2008 and no one will be willing to take on the contracts of Kidd, Damp, Terry, Stack, etc. Johnson and Nelson should be the first ones to go.

Fire Avery, Trade Josh Howard to New Jersey for Devin Harris. Release Jason Kidd. Start Brandon Bass.
