The Mavericks' Thursday night game at Denver appears to be in jeopardy after their flight there Wednesday was twice postponed and rescheduled for Thursday morning.

A snowstorm that is Denver's worst in 40 years is due in part to a weather phenomenon called a bomb cyclone. The Mavericks were scheduled to fly to Denver at 3 p.m. Wednesday. The flight was rescheduled to 6 p.m., then later rescheduled for 8 a.m. Thursday.

More than 1,300 commercial flights into Denver on Wednesday were cancelled because of 7-to-11 inches of snow and up to 80 mph winds. Some of Thursday's flights already have been postponed.

Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle was asked whether he's ever been affected by a bomb cyclone.

"Brooklyn last week," he deadpanned, referring to the 39-point drubbing at the Nets.
