Mavs' Beaubois on his return: 'Definitely soon' ... 'Roddy's as quick as ever,' says Terry By JEFF MILLER / The Dallas Morning News Published 08 February 2011 09:41 PM http://tinyurl.com/4nrtdx8 Those who picked the Tuesday following the Super Bowl as the day Roddy Beaubois would participate in his first Mavericks practice this season, please cash in your tickets. Almost six months after Beaubois broke a bone in his left foot, the second-year guard finally joined the team for practice. He remained behind as the Mavericks headed to California to begin a road trip of three games in four nights — Sacramento on Wednesday, Denver on Thursday and Houston on Saturday. Beaubois is scheduled to join the team in Houston, but neither he nor coach Rick Carlisle expects him to play then. "He's a ways away, but he continues to make progress," Carlisle said. Carlisle said he has no timetable for Beaubois' return, and Beaubois could only offer "definitely soon." "I can't tell you when exactly because it was my first practice," he said. "I have to play a couple practices and see how it is. "At least I need a good week of practice. I cannot just jump from one-on-one situation to a game. I have to play five-on-five, get used to playing with my teammates. Then I'll come back." Guard Jason Terry said he liked what he saw from Beaubois. "Roddy's as quick as ever," Terry said. "The thing that sets him apart from other guards in this league is speed and quickness. Add to the fact he can shoot the ball with the best of them — hey, he's going to be a force." Familiar site: Forward Peja Stojakovic will make his Mavericks road debut in familiar territory tonight at Sacramento, where he was part of the best Kings teams since the franchise moved there in 1985. He played there 71/2 seasons and was a three-time All-Star before leaving during the 2005-06 season. "I always keep those good memories in the back of my mind," Stojakovic said. "We had some pretty good teams back in the day." Stojakovic, who played Monday for the first time since November, said he was sore from playing 20 minutes. "But good sore," he said. Rookie out: Rookie Dominique Jones recently suffered a stress fracture in his foot that will sideline him for a significant period of time, two sources said. The injury occurred last week, and Jones stayed behind as the team left for Sacramento Jones has split time this season between the Mavericks and the NBA Development League Texas Legends in Frisco. He has played in 18 games for the Mavericks, averaging 2.3 points per game. Briefly: Carlisle's emphasis in Tuesday's practice was rebounding and transition defense after the Mavs allowed 34 fast-break points against Cleveland as they hung on to win, 99-96. Dallas went into the game allowing 12.6 transition points per game. ... X-rays on Dirk Nowitzki's right wrist were negative. He hurt it Monday when he got tangled up with teammate Ian Mahinmi and Cleveland's Ryan Hollins. Roddy Beaubois他做了這個球季第一次完整的練習。 Roddy Beaubois預計在休士頓加入球隊，但是包括他本人和總教練Rick Carlisle都 不認為他會上場比賽。 總教練Rick Carlisle說：他還有一段路要走，但是他持續在進步。 總教練Rick Carlisle還說他無法確定會是何時，Roddy Beaubois則是認為，快了， 很肯定的。我不能很確定地告訴你是何時，因為這是我第一次的練習， 我必須再練 習下去，並且看看情況如何。至少得要有一個禮拜好的練習， 我不能從一對一的練 習就直接跳到比賽，我必須打一些五對五的練習，和我的隊友磨合， 接著我才會回 來。 其他消息： 甫加入小牛的Peja Stojakovic馬上就要回沙加緬度了，他在這裡待了七個球季多， 還入選了3次全明星賽。他說：我總是把這些美好的回憶放在心裡，我們在當時擁有 相當好的球隊。 菜鳥Dominique Jones的腳底最近飽受壓迫性骨折的折磨，這事發生在上禮拜。他本 季為小牛打了18場比賽，平均得到2.3分。，這意味著他會好一陣子都不會上場。 總教練Rick Carlisle今天練習的重點擺在籃板還有攻守轉換時的防守。小牛本季被 快攻得分平均為12.6分，但是對騎士時卻被得到34分。 Dirk去照了X光，結果是陰性的，應該沒有大礙。 -- ╭─────────╮ Our Way Our Will Our Win ╭╯Dallas Mavericks╭╯ ￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣ ╰─────────╯ --
