View Full Version : Thoughts on our beloved Mavs tonight

Nothing to see here really, just went out there and beat a team we're supposed to beat. Mavs C game was good enough to withstand the best possible game the Spurs could play. Dirk was absolutely brilliant. LMAO at people who say Dirk fades in the playoffs. Monstrous efficiency.

Gotta keep it going. Terry needs to play a little better. I really dont like Barea, although he was +7, fluke. This will be a tough series IMo, Spurs are good. but I dont think theyre very impressive outside the Big 3. Mavs have superior depth and size.

I was wrong that we could effectively defend Manu though.

and LMAO at bullsfan1000 Butler = STackhouse
and LMAO at DOK hating on the GREAT SHAAAAWN MARION

Good win Dallas, I still have confidence though. It will be hard for Dirk to duplicate his play from today and I think (hope) that the horrible FT's disparity won't happen again. Pop needs to stop playing Mason and Bogans.

Mavs were more agressive and drove to the basket more and were at home. The FT totals don't matter bc Spurs went to the Hack a Damp strategy. At one point with about 2 minutes left, they flashed a graphic that showed Dallas had drawn 26 fouls to 18 for San Antonio. That seems about right.

My main concern is that we can't expect Dirk to shoot 80% again or whatever it was. Other guys will need to step up. Terry was pretty crappy except for a couple of big shots at the end. And why oh fucking why did RC roll with a Terry/Barea backcourt for long stretches? If Kidd needs a breather, we should go with a Barea (since Roddy won't play)/Butler backcourt. If Butler needs to catch a breath, we need a Kidd/Terry backcourt.

good win by DAL. the defenders are too "green" to deal with a crafty guy like Dirk, who will use a bit of acting himself. can't argue with the results though.

the defensive rotations looked ok the first half, but way too many turnovers from crazy passes from manu.

There was one time they missed a clear foul on Duncan, when he made the basket and someone went over his back. That was it. Butler had his way with Jefferson all game long, and got wherever he wanted. He more than anyone put the Spurs in foul trouble during the game.

p.s the Mavs have won 9 of the past 11 games against the Spurs. Think about that for a sec! As long as Dirk is healthy and scoring, this team will always have a huge matchup problem for the Spurs!

If there's one thing I've learned it's that every game in a series has a different flow/life. Maybe Spurs will get more FT's next game, Dirk won't be as efficient, and the Mavs will end up winning by 20.

Just because Dirk had 36 on 14 shots and the Mavs had 20 more free throw attempts and the Spurs "only" lost by 6 doesn't really mean much, IMHO.

On to the next game for these men in blue!

JET/Kidd back court seems just as horrible as Barea/Kidd if not worse. At least you have some guy with freaky speed with Barea on court, which is better than having a turtle head who plays worse D and jacks up more shots in O and who moves even more gingerly than Jason Kidd.

It seemed like a typical playoff game in that the home team got a little better whistle. San Antonio will be the beneficiary of such a game when the series shifts south.

Bottom line is you can't win when Dirk shoots 12-14, Kidd almost pulls off the triple double, our centers get 15 and 18, Butler abuses Jefferson for 22 on 8-19 shooting and is aggressive at drawing fouls. Dirk won't shoot 90% from the floor again. It's gonna be a long series.

Spurs looked horrible tonight. Surprised it wasn't a blowout. Hack a Damp didn't make up for the discrepancy. Mavs got quite a few extras easy fouls. Mavs outrebounded Spurs but I don't understand how Mavs didn't kill the Spurs tonight.

I did not say the FT's were the reason for the loss. I simply said the same contact that was a foul on Dirk, was not the same for Duncan. In fact, it was there where the disparity was. But that alone changes nothing. Dirk was too good in every area tonight, along with other Mavs.

Yet the Spurs scored more points in the paint by 10-14....Dirk was never in the lane, and shot fade aways all night, yet shot over 10 FTs. Duncan was attacking the basket and barely shot any FTs.

The Spurs were just as aggressive as the Mavs...the difference was, the refs were calling tons of touch fouls on the Spurs, meanwhile the Mavs were allowed to be physical.

Nothing new though, this is the way the series has gone for some time now. The refs assist the mavs against the Spurs.....and the mavs fans ignore it and call us cry babies....but when someone like the heat come along and it goes against the mavs you guys cry just as much.

look the refs didnt cost the spurs the game, but they sure as hell didnt call a good game. it was a one sided affair. that being said....the Spurs need to not turn the ball over so much. They need to make their FTs. They need to make their layups. They need to make their open jumpers. They need to play better defense on Kidd, Terry, and Butler.....Dirk is going to go off, so let him. Just do a better job with everyone else.

Come on Fin, you're a smart guy.

Bottom line is Mavs 34 FTAs and Spurs 14 FTAs. Before Hack-A-Damp it was 22-4 disparity in favor of that Mavs.

You weren't hesitant to show the FT stats in the Spurs-Mavs series in '06, and now you're saying that the Mavs only got "a little better whistle"? In a 20 FT disparity?

And that, btw, is not the reason the Spurs lost. But you can't downplay the FT disparity if you're going to discuss it.

It was NOT the worst game the Spurs will play. The Spurs shot 56% in the 1st half to 43% for the Mavs and still trailed at halftime. That's how good Dirk was playing with 19 in the 1st half.

The 2nd half was a different story for the Spurs (no where NEAR their best play). Spurs missed a LOT of easy layups and chippies in the the 2nd half (the TNT guys even said they counted at least 6 misses from 5 ft or less for S.A. in the 2nd). And it didn't help that Dampier and Haywood were raping the Spurs on the glass either. Spurs got hot for awhile in the 3rd but so did Butler who kept the Mavs in it. Spurs went ice cold when they went to the bench

Even though the Mavs won, they needed a career game from Dirk. He won't shoot 86% from the field again, that's a stone cold lock...

Findog
04-18-2010, 10:18 PM
It was good to see San Antonio not get blown out, the way Dallas was playing.

Spurs shot 50%. If you do that, you'll more or less stay in the game. Mavs never completely broke it open, but after the Spurs run at the beginning of the 3rd, I thought Dallas had pretty firm control of the game. The lead was always 7-13 points the entire fourth quarter until Dallas played to protect the ball in the final two minutes. It was essentially a 3-possession win.

Their defense on Dirk was horrible, as he wasnt just making a ton of tough shots, he was getting a lot of wide open looks. Terry played like total ass. Fortunately Marion came alive and hit some wide open shots in the 4th. Dirk may not shoot that well consistently, but if he keeps getting those kinds of looks, the Spurs will get swept. On the other hand, I can't imagine Terry shooting that poorly the rest of the series, and Butler played pretty well, but still didn't have a great shooting outing either.

At one point in the second quarter when Barea checked in to the game to spell Kidd, San Antonio scored on 8 of their next 10 possessions. Don't understand what he brings to the table in a playoff setting. Kidd played 40 minutes tonight. I'm fine with Roddy and all of the potential rookie mistakes he might make for 8.

I don't get why Haywood doesn't get twice as much burn. He's a 100 times better than Dampier. He was killing us out there.

But I guess if Pop is gonna give 25 minutes to some of the worst players in the NBA in Mason/Bogans, then Rick probably feels bad and thought to throw Pop a bone.


Oh, and props on the win Mavs fans, I think this series is gonna be much shorter than originally thought.

I don't think Duncan and Manu will shoot 70%+ for the whole series, and I don't think Hill will get right till like game 4 or 5, at which point it'll be too late.

Rick Carlisle is not one who likes change with his precious rotations. He only played Tayshaun Prince before Michael fucking "Binary Man" Curry in 2003 because T-Mac was going apeshit, his team was up 3-1, and it looked like the season was over.

This will be a tough series IMo, Spurs are good.

I have to respect you for saying this, almost every other Mavs fan seem to think it will be so easy. I mean come one it's the spurs, sure Mavs might win, but not like you all at playing Bulls or Bobcats, Spurs won't be as easy to beat as those teams

Good game Mavs, Spurs need to take care of the ball and not give away so many dumbass turnovers.

At one point in the second quarter when Barea checked in to the game to spell Kidd, San Antonio scored on 8 of their next 10 possessions. Don't understand what he brings to the table in a playoff setting. Kidd played 40 minutes tonight. I'm fine with Roddy and all of the potential rookie mistakes he might make for 8.
it seems you need to buy the girls some pieces of thishttp://www.fotosearch.com/bthumb/CSP/CSP183/k1830666.jpg before showing them in your sig, bra.

glamourous night for Mavs I would say, won't be the same in game 2 though.

cause you are all morons....Damp is stronger and plays better D...he also sets better picks giving others easier looks. Haywood can score but he also lets Duncan get lower position in the post....Mavs need Damp to play well to win

:elephant

while i agree with what you're saying that damp defends duncan as well as anyone in the league, why do you keep saying that he's so much stronger than haywood? haywood is a beast and isn't bad defensively by any means. he's a good defender.

they should get about equal minutes in this series because of damp's ability to guard duncan, but haywood should get the bigger portion of the center minutes after this one is over.

Nothing to see here really, just went out there and beat a team we're supposed to beat. Mavs C game was good enough to withstand the best possible game the Spurs could play. Dirk was absolutely brilliant. LMAO at people who say Dirk fades in the playoffs. Monstrous efficiency.

Gotta keep it going. Terry needs to play a little better. I really dont like Barea, although he was +7, fluke. This will be a tough series IMo, Spurs are good. but I dont think theyre very impressive outside the Big 3. Mavs have superior depth and size.

I was wrong that we could effectively defend Manu though.

and LMAO at bullsfan1000 Butler = STackhouse
and LMAO at DOK hating on the GREAT SHAAAAWN MARION

Ghazi you left your jizz rag and Playgirl magazine on the bathroom floor! Clean your shit up or I'll beat your ass with a paddle!

Holger on Dirk, after seeing Dirk make 86 straight (or is it 88?) free throws: "He hit the rim on a couple of them. He could do better."

Voulgaris recently started a blog called Alone in the Corner, where he uses his database to name the NBA's worst defenders.

Making the list are:
Jonny Flynn
Kevin Martin
Andres Nocioni
Charlie Villanueva
Andrea Bargnani

Honorable mentions are: J.J. Barea, Jeff Green, Yi Jianlian, Drew Gooden, Al Jefferson, Will Bynum, Jordan Farmar, Derek Fisher and David West.

I entered that sig bet with you, correct? It was either you or FkLA I can't remember.

My bad. Its FkLA then.

I gotta agree. Jefferson was a joke. Parker got some confidence at the end of the game. That scares me a little. Ginobili faded late.

That's what hurt the most IMO. Those ridiculous turnovers late with his passes hurt bad

What will Cuban do if y'all don't get past the Spurs? Rumor had it before the big trade he was going to blow the team up (outside of Dirk).

Dallas is a nice city, but the Mavericks are jump shooting frontrunners.

But making a sig bet with FkLA is kinda useless seeing as he will just post as Dwade until the finals are over tbh.
