-->Dirk up in the air
Dirk Nowitzki shuffled lifelessly off the court at the Ford Center in Oklahoma City after today's shootaround, looking like death warmed over.
That doesn't mean he won't play tonight against the New Orleans Hornets. But he's suffering from lingering problems associated with a sinus infection, flu-like symptoms and your basic head cold.
"It could be a lot better,'' he said as he walked slowly to the Mavericks' bus. "We'll see how an afternoon of sleep helps.''
Avery Johnson said Nowitzki didn't look like himself during the workout and said he's not optimistic about the 7-foot MVP candidate playing against the Hornets.
He didn't rule it out, either. But this looks eerily similar to the symptoms he had on New Year's Eve when he missed a game in Denver, which the Mavericks won. More will be known about his status as game time nears. We'll keep you updated.
