| The Mavericks are 16-13 since trading for Jason Kidd, including 1-1 against the Hornets. Kidd has a size advantage against Chris Paul, but Paul is much quicker. That matchup will be fun to watch. |

| When Dirk Nowitzki injured his ankle, there was speculation that the Mavs might miss the playoffs. Now the reigning MVP is back and Dallas looks like a postseason lock. |

| Still without Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas has proven it can beat the Clippers. Twice. Now life gets really difficult. |
| 03/25/2008 | 13 | 8 |
| Jason Kidd's trade to Dallas falls under the category of 'be careful what you wish for.' |
| 03/18/2008 | 8 | 9 |
| Winning five in a row vs. bad teams is a good way to get confidence and continuity. |
| 03/11/2008 | 9 | 9 |
| Dallas, in the midst of playing seven of eight at home, needs a big March. |
| 03/04/2008 | 9 | 9 |
| The Mavs nearly knocked off the Spurs, Lakers and Jazz on the road. But 'nearly' isn't a moral victory when you lose all three games. |
| 02/26/2008 | 9 | 9 |
| Jason Kidd and the Mavs have won three in a row -- against three bad teams. Let's see what they do on the road against San Antonio on Thursday, the Lakers on Sunday and Utah on Monday. |
| 02/19/2008 | 9 | 10 |
| Jerry Stackhouse doesn't get his 30-day vacation, but can use the time he does have to get on the same page with Jason Kidd. Stack, Jason Terry and Eddie Jones will all take turns playing backcourt mate and figure to benefit from far more open shots thanks to Kidd's arrival. |
| 02/12/2008 | 10 | 6 |
| Jason Kidd sent Mark Cuban a resume tape of sorts by notching a triple-double against the Bobcats in the game leading up to his outing against the Mavericks, who he proceeded to also throttle. Devin Harris better feel appreciated if he stays put through all this. |
