Alright, so I wanted to dig up some old basketball stuff, specifically about the Dallas Mavericks roster back in 1999. Yeah, ’99, you heard that right.
First off, I started by hitting up the usual spots, you know, just Googling around. Typed in “1999 Dallas Mavericks roster” and a bunch of results popped up. Mostly fan pages and some official-looking stats sites.
- Checked out a couple of those fan pages. They had some names, but nothing too detailed.
- Then I landed on a site called “*”. This one looked promising, with actual stats and player details.
So, this Basketball-Reference site had the whole shebang. I could see the players from the 1998-99 season and even the 1999-00 season. They had everything from jersey numbers to player positions, heights, birthdates, you name it. Pretty cool, huh?
I started jotting down some names. There were some I recognized, but a lot of them were new to me. I mean, 1999 was a while back, right? I saw that they had this guy, Bruno Sundov, who apparently signed with the team in March ’99. Interesting.
Then I dove into the team’s performance. Turns out, the 1999-00 Mavericks had 40 wins and 42 losses. Not too shabby, but not amazing either. And in the 1998-99 season, they were 19-31. They were coached by Don Nelson, a name I definitely remember.
The site also let me sort the players by different stats. I could see who scored the most points, grabbed the most rebounds, all that good stuff. It was like a trip down memory lane, even though I wasn’t super familiar with all these players.
Honestly, it was kind of fun going through all this old data. It made me realize how much the team has changed over the years. And it was cool to see how detailed these online databases are. Who knew there was so much info on a team from over 20 years ago?
Anyways, that’s my little adventure into the 1999 Dallas Mavericks. It was a good way to kill some time and learn a bit about basketball history. If you’re into this kind of thing, I’d say give it a shot. You might be surprised at what you find.
