Dallas won all 3 of its games this week, beating Washington and Oklahoma City at home before going to Boston to beat Rajon Rondo's former team last night. The Mavs look like they have taken care of their only weakness with the Rondo trade, and this week's biggest challenge comes tomorrow at Cleveland, which has been struggling and will not have LeBron.
Kevin Durant returned from his ankle injury this week, and put up 44 and 34 in beating Phoenix and Washington. The Thunder are definitely a different team with the MVP on the floor, and we'll see just how good on Monday, when they go to Oakland to face the #1 Warriors.

The Tigers are hosting another pack of Tigers this afternoon, but Savannah State's Tigers are not as fearsome as those from LSU. Big win for the Bayou Bengals.
