Plea’s Picks: Interesting game on tap. Mavs roll into snow town, DEN-5.5/233
On Nov. 20, DEN managed a one-point victory over Dal in Dallas, 98-97, without Murray, Gordon and Jokic. DAL brings its big 1-2 punch to this ol’ cow town with Irving and Doncic, but Jokic lies in wait, his buddy Vlatko in tow, with a new-look bench. Lots of sub-plots here to make this one interesting before the break. We are on game 58, Stiffs. Our website is threatened, its existence hangs in the balance. Hold your loved ones and your Stiffs beloved site closely, you never know when you might lose them.

These teams play a lot of close games, and DAL is 7-3 ATS in last 10 matchups.
Mavs are 5-1 ATS in last 6 games in DEN.
Plea’s pick: DAL/over.
More proof the world is crazier than ever. Who woulda thought Mancar would be leading this contest? Get your picks in before 4 p.m. Mountain.

COMMENTS
Comments are a little bit slow to appear. My connection is a decrepit rural DSL. 2.7 down and .6 up. Yeah. Guess I should be glad they ran a line into my cave.
Hey, um, Perkins? When this project “died”, I downgraded the server capacity as much as I could, to save money. That might be the problem. However, it depends on what you mean. Do you mean when you come to the page and scroll down to the comments, they’re slow to appear? Or do you mean when you post a comment, it’s slow to appear?
If the former, that’s probably due to a configuration choice I made – which is intended to actually speed things up when there are a lot of comments. If that’s the case, I would change that thanks to your very helpful feedback. Much appreciated!
Still not Allen.
You can pick your friends, but you can’t pick Plea’s nose. Well, not unless you’re Mrs. Plea.
