HOUSTON – Forward Klay Thompson summed up the Dallas Mavericks’ recent difficult journey around the NBA circles after they played four games in six days, and in three different time zones.
The trip started last Friday in Phoenix (Mountain Time Zone) and continued Saturday in Portland (Pacific Time Zone), with the distance from Phoenix to Portland encompassing over 1,000 miles. Then on Monday, the Mavs played in Sacramento (Pacific Time Zone) before finishing up the trip in Houston (Central Time Zone) on Wednesday. By all accounts, it was a brutal road trip for the Mavs.
