The news just keeps getting worse for the Dallas Mavericks.Not only is the team mired in the longest losing streak to start a season in franchise history, the Mavs are going to be without Dirk Nowitzki for the foreseeable future.The sixth-leading scorer in NBA history is being shut down due to right Achilles soreness. The initial thought is Nowitzki is going to miss at least a week before being reevaluated.The team is not putting a timetable on his absence. The Mavericks face the Milwaukee Bucks at American Airlines Center on Sunday.Is it bad news? Yes. Its bad news, but well get through it, Dallas coach Rick Carlisle said. Well get through it. Weve gone through some periods like this before, but his health is the most important thing.Hes more than willing to continue playing, but its pretty obvious that things just arent right. Weve got to do the right thing here and back him off, get to the root of it and get it fixed.Nowitzki played only 16 first-half minutes in Fridays 105-95 home loss to Portland, dropping the Mavericks to 0-5. No team in club annals had ever started worse than 0-4.Nowitzki missed two games before suiting up against Utah and the Trail Blazers. The rest initially helped, but he didnt come out of the locker room after halftime Friday.It felt better after a couple of days of not doing anything, Nowitzki said. But as soon as I got back out there with the cutting and the showing and the quick changing of direction, it went right back to feeling the same.Im already not moving great at 38 as it is and to be out there on one leg is not helping myself or the team at all. We are going to get this thing right in the next few days and then ramp it back up.The Bucks (4-2) extended their winning streak to three with Saturday nights 117-91 home rout over to Sacramento. Mirza Teletovic knocked down seven 3-pointers and led Milwaukee with 22 points off the bench.Jabari Parker scored 19 and Giannis Antetokounmpo added 17 points. None of the starters played in the fourth quarter.Getting able to get some rest in the fourth quarter is a great feeling going to Dallas with fresh legs, said Antetokounmpo, the team leader in scoring, rebounding, assists and blocks.Coming to Dallas serves as a pseudo-homecoming for coach Jason Kidd, who was drafted by the Mavericks before returning years later to help lead the franchise to its first NBA championship in 2011.The game is also Jason Terrys first in Dallas as a member of the Bucks. Terry was also part of the championship team during his eight-run with the Mavs and remains a fan favorite.The Bucks snapped a six-game losing streak against Dallas last season. The Mavs have won three straight in the series at home and 11 of the last 13. Dante Pettis Super Bowl Jersey . Jason Zucker and Matt Cooke also scored for Minnesota, which has won five of six. Kuemper made five saves in the first, nine in the second, and nine in the third. The rookies best save came with 2:17 left in the third period when he denied former Wild forward Matt Cullen from just outside of the crease on the right side. Jimmy Garoppolo Super Bowl Jersey . As he recorded his 23rd and 24th points of the evening, a segment of the sellout Air Canada Centre crowd expressed their appreciation for the Raptors point guard with a smattering of MVP chants. https://www.49ersrookiestore.com/49ers-Jeff-Wilson-Jersey/ . The mixed zone is not a place to make friends. DeForest Buckner Super Bowl Jersey . The Barrie Colts defenceman, who impressed many with his play for Canada at the World Junior Hockey Championship, is the top-ranked skater in the February rankings. He has 19 goals and 24 assists for 43 points in 45 games with the Colts this season. Ahkello Witherspoon Super Bowl Jersey . Instead of dwelling on the negative, Oates focused on what was good about the clubs recent play. It worked. Gold Coast recruit Nathan Peats is all too aware of the similarity between his arrival at the Titans and that of NRL superstar Jarryd Hayne.Forced out of Parramatta in May as the Eels desperately tried to make themselves salary cap compliant, the 25-year-old was a somewhat reluctant pick-up for the Titans.Four months on and the Eels off-field woes have now played a significant role in the Titans landing dual Dally M medallist Hayne on a lucrative two-year deal.Hayne says he did all he could to return to the Eels - the club he left in 2014 to pursue a career in the NFL in the United States.But without a formal offer and the clubs boardroom in disarray, Hayne took up an offer to join Peats at the Titans.Theres no-one else to blame but Parramatta themselves I guess, Peats told AAP.Ive moved on and Im sure Haynesies probably moved on from it now. Itll probably take him a couple of weeks to settle in here like it did me but youre still getting paid to play footy so its pretty easy to adjust these days.dddddddddddd.Haynes arrival has created an instant buzz on the Gold Coast, with expectations of a 27,400 sellout crowd for Sundays clash with the Warriors which would eclipse the record crowd for the Titans of 27,227 against Brisbane in a 2009 qualifying final.Peats said its important however for the team to not get too distracted by Haynes arrival with the eighth-placed Warriors sitting just one point above the Titans heading into the match.If we lose this week and other teams win we could go to 10th, he said.We cant get too far ahead of ourselves.Its exciting (to have Hayne) but were trying to play it down a bit. Weve still got a job to do this weekend against the Warriors. ' ' '
