Somewhere in this city, a bunch of millionaires who are much taller/stronger/more athletic than you desperately need your help.
I’m talking about the Dallas Mavericks, who are set to battle with Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers tonight at the AAC. Now, you might remember that just a few weeks ago, the Mavs were breezing past some of the toughest teams in the league. But in the fortnight or so since, they’ve had to play through injuries to two of their best players, lost nine of their last 11 games, and fallen well behind the rival Spurs in the race for the Southwest Division. A loss tonight would up their losing streak to seven games, which would be the club’s longest since 1999. So show up, be loud, and cheer them on.
Those of you who like your evenings a little less chaotic might want to head to the Winspear to catch Young Frankenstein before it wraps up its run in Dallas. If you can’t make it tonight, you’ll have a few more chances (the last show is Sunday night), but a mid-week show usually means you’ll beat some of the weekend crowd.
There’s even more to be done on this chilly Wednesday. You can find it all here.
