Celtics at Mavs game thread

[Venti Quattro]

Who's coming victorious? I think it's going to be Boston in a very close match. Probably will be decided by the final possession.

[miserableman]

GOOO DALLAS for this one game and mayhaps when they play the celtics again!!!

[TheMACHINE]

I'll be a Los Angeles Mavs for today.

Go mavs! Dont choke bitches.

[The Gemini Method]

The battle for headband supremacy commences...

[j.dizzle]

Celtics on a back-2-back so they'll be tired IMO. You never know with Dallas though, I wont be surprised if they lose by 20 or win by 20. Thats what happens when you're a jumpshooting team, too inconsistent. I think it'll be a close one though

[Giuseppe]

I hope the Celtics pound that ass.

[The Gemini Method]

I hope the Celtics pound that ass.

I couldn't root for the Celtics when they opened at the Heat...don't know if I can do it against the Mavs. I would say Dallas pulls out a close one.

[TheMACHINE]

mavs havent done anything bad to us...so i cant hate them...they're so lovable. They're like the "little engine that could"...cant root against em in this case.

[Giuseppe]

I couldn't root for the Celtics when they opened at the Heat...don't know if I can do it against the Mavs. I would say Dallas pulls out a close one.

I want the Celtics to end up with home court in the East. I don't want the Heat anywhere near an NBA Title. It would hurt me no end to see the Celtics triumph over us, but, it'd be untenable if the Heat did it. I want those fucks denied.

[miserableman]

Hey Machine, did you see Sasha desperately jacking up shots in the 4th? I feel bad for him.

Contract year.
No playing time to show other teams his "worth".
Almost certainly gonna lose Maria when the Lakers don't sign him again.

This smells of the Dragic incident.

100% would rather see the HEAT in the Finals than the Celtics.

I'd rather Gasol own Bosh for 5 - 6 games than eat Shaq elbows to the face for 7 games.

[GuerillaBlack]

I want the Celtics to win, but I hope Caron Butler and Kevin Garnett get into a "fight". We all know KG can't fight.

Fair enough. I personally want to see us beat the Heat. But, at this point I don't care who makes it as long as the Lakers are there to take 'em on.

[Ghazi]

NBA Finals preview right here folks :)

But, in a real sense, if it got to that point (Heat Vs. Lakers) the Heat woulda had to do some bad ass shit to get to there. I wouldn't want to fuck with them at that point. With Boston, we know what to expect, the matchups are clean, especially if Wallace remains retired & Perkins is hobbled.

I don't trust Miami with Stern getting out of our bed & hopping into their's.

[Venti Quattro]

Why are you guys talking about the finals already. Focus on the game bitches. lol

I think we match up better with the Heat. If the Heat do get to the Finals it will be because they neutralize Rondo and the Cs can't stop the penetration. But in 7 games I think our chances against the Heat are better cuz we're a post team and it will limit their fast break opportunities.

And I think our bigs will get hurt guarding Shaq. Big fat clumsy Finals-contact Shaq.

[miserableman]

Why are you guys talking about the finals already. Focus on the game bitches. lol

I wonder what kinda D the Mavs will play on Rondo. He's been great so far.

I don't know why more teams don't play the "Give Rondo the shot" defense.

How hard is it to develop a shot though? When they go over the Finals game footage, doesn't anybody mention to him that Kobe is like 6 feet away from him and maybe he should shoot more in practice?

[Giuseppe]

And I think our bigs will get hurt guarding Shaq. Big fat clumsy Finals-contact Shaq.

Yep, Daddy is our achilles heel if it comes to that. He knows how to play Gasol and especially Bynum. Daddy plays the dolt, but, it's all an act.

[BUMP]

Dallas only because the Celts are coming off a b2b and they want to make up for that embarassing performance against Denver.

Look for Dirk to shit all over Garnett par the course, per usual

[monosylab1k]

Look for Dirk to shit all over Garnett par the course, per usual

It's pretty crazy how basically anyone in the league who tries to punk Dirk and intimidate him, he will always back down and take the punking......but when Garnett tries to do it, Dirk laughs in his face and drops 35 on his ass. More proof that nobody in the league respects or fears KG.

they are part of our farm system...they have to give us something. lol

[Giuseppe]

We owe him, MACHINE. Don't make the same mistake we made with Horry and cast Vuj aside like an old shoe. He didn't close his eyes and loiter the jam on that inbounds. He listened to Phil and he put the Celtics out of their f'in misery.

Do the right thing.

Don't you think he owes US? We gave him a mid level money contract for ONE good year (a contract year no less) and he hasn't produced anything since. If Odom took a cut, Sash can take a cut. Keep him around cuz he knows the system.. but that's that.

he did hit those clutch ft's while Harland was saying how he hasnt played alot and he would be rusty....SWISH! haha well worth it.

[lefty]

Prediction: LMAO Mavs

[miserableman]

Think about what our front office can do with his salary tho.

Blake + Barnes = 5.765 million this year
Sasha = 5.475 million this year

No. He paid us, all of us back with those two free throws.

And all ball busting aside, I'm floored as to the ingrates on this Board who to this day still refuse to acknowledge Sasha and his impact. It is appalling.

[monosylab1k]

You & him are a lot alike in that respect.

Comments like this only further cement the simple fact that I got yer goat, Cubby.

[Giuseppe]

Only Sasha made the free throws. The other two were cashing checks outside of California.

tee, hee. I knew I'd get with that one.

Come ta Pappy.

[miserableman]

That's kinda all he did for those 7 games. And then there was the Dragic incident.

[Giuseppe]

Yep. He did it for the Lakers, but, make no mistake, it was a special delivery for Bryant.

[Giuseppe]

That's kinda all he did for those 7 games.

Yep, otherwise you probably don't register and I'm eatin' another shit sandwich prepared by Mono.

[miserableman]

And we also won by 4, so those two points aren't that huge especially when considering that someone else, like Kobe maybe, could have shot them.

He's making a lot for 13th man is all i'm saying.

[miserableman]

and i registered in 09 but was lurking well before that

[TheMACHINE]

I apologize regardless of your register date. It was not right for me to say that, Miserable.

I get a little off kilter with this Sasha business. I feel strongly, because I know the ramifications had he missed. It's an ugly vision that I can't even fathom the regrets meter.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Mavs pull away in the 4th...Celtics will be shite on b2b's this season imo

[Ghazi]

I know its early in the season, but I'm ready to hit the PANIC BUTTON if the Mavs lose tonight.

I'm taking the Mavs on this one.

[Native American]

On the day Dirk and Garnett meet on the basketball court, I am reminded of the old injun tale of the battle between the warriors No Wind and Cage. Two great warriors from different tribes who had similar rises to glory. Their fathers were both chiefs who died in battle while they were still infants. Both trained to be great warriors to honor their fathers. On a solemn autumn night, the two met on the forest grounds while the two tribes fought for territory rights. After a magnificent display of knife combat, the two lay on the forest grounds dead from the battle. Upon undressing the warrior garb to prepare the dead bodies for burial, both tribes were shocked to find that both warriors were not sons, but daughters of the late chiefs. The lesson holds true for tonight. There is no winner in a battle between two bitches.

[sefant77]

Everytime Barea is in the game the Mavs switch to zone defense so i gonna laugh so hard if they start to play zone against Rondo/Allen/PP.

I can see KG pulling a dirty move against Barea and Barea going back after him :lol

Too bad Stevenson wont see any PT.

Really? That didn't make sense to you? Still in the 4th grade are we?

[Ghazi]

If stevenson could consistently hit the 3 it would do wonders..

Stevenson bringin the goods,per the unusual

Butler's offensive game has been annoying all year.

It's kinda like J-Ho except more tangibles

Well despite the lack of any punctuation, I gathered you were stating that you would rather your team toil in obscurity rather than be wildly successful. Why would you want that? Doesn't make any sense. Although if your FO shares your views then that would explain what happened to your ball club.

[Ghazi]

6 turnovers already . :/

[MavDynasty]

THe offense is shit once the second team comes in. Butler still shooting stepback J's at the same clip or maybe even worse than J-Ho

[MavDynasty]

and they can't take care of the fucking ball

Another team comes in on a b2b with mavs well rested and mavs look like shit

[j.dizzle]

LOL Dallas is nowhere near elite. They making KG look like hes 25 again. Dallas cant even take advantage of Boston without any of their big men cuz all they do is shoot jumpers. JJ Barea should not be dribbling the ball

[ElNono]

Come on Dallas, make a game out of this

[DPG21920]

Davis cannot bother Dirk. Just go to him.

[sribb43]

4-0 as soon as JJ leaves :lmao

[BRHornet45]

sons the refs are the ONLY reason why Dallas isn't down 10-20 points right now like they should be if this game was called fairly ... 18 Dallas free throws compared to 6 Boston free throws.

I can't believe the mavs gave Marion all those years :lmao

[j.dizzle]

Damn, Dallas missing a ton of bunnies. They should just keep running, Boston is on a back-2-back..Terrible foul on rondo

[BRHornet45]

sons my nigga Tyson is looking like he did in 07-08 tonight ... Ms. Ghazi is going to be getting some good dick tonight that's for sure.

[ElNono]

What's Kidd role these days? He's not even looking to score looks like...

[BUMP]

sons my nigga Tyson is looking like he did in 07-08 tonight ... Ms. Ghazi is going to be getting some good dick tonight that's for sure.

Sons, I'm kinda wondering what went on in that locker room at halftime. Chandler's been invisible since then.....makes you wonder

[j.dizzle]

Chandler looking like Kwamayyyy out there

[Venti Quattro]

Paul Pierce's jumper is money

[45 bank shot]

Terry, gettin his 06 on!

At least the mavs still have Jerk Nowitki

[sribb43]

dirk is the mavs best at attacking the hoop...sad.

We need Roddy Buckets

[ElNono]

WTF was that? :lmao

[HarlemHeat37]

When is Roddy supposed to return?..

Good stuff, Dallas didnt fold.

crofl Mavs snatching victory from the jaws of defeat

[DPG21920]

Good, physical game. Dirk bailing the Mavs out. Par for the course. Sinking shots, nailing asses to the tree of woe.

[Venti Quattro]

lol boston

[ElNono]

Ray Allen for the win? Boston is pretty tired for OT, I would think

[HarlemHeat37]

Dirk is just too good..pretty sad that he has the worst supporting cast for a star player in the entire NBA:lol..

Celtics had a good idea there, they sent a double, but did it too late..teams need to double Dirk in clutch time the second he receives the ball, make the scrubs beat you..

[45 bank shot]

shit jerk is clutch

[Jelloisjigglin]

Noringski!

[BRHornet45]

Free Throw Count:

Dallas - 20

Boston - 7

[sribb43]

So much for haywood being the mavs best center ever. He is a contract year whore

[VBM]

Good to see Dirk make everything he throws up against a team other than SA

[DPG21920]

Dirk not passing up any shots in the clutch.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Dirk Diggler...what a shot

[Jelloisjigglin]

Free Throw Count:

Dallas - 20

Boston - 7


When you play very aggressive D like Boston does, you're going to be called for fouls..

[j.dizzle]

Sucks that Dirks teammates will never come through for him in the playoffs when he needs them

[DPG21920]

Tyson looks so much better now that he is healthy. Why give Haywood that contract and not play him?

I guess he is trade bait for a team that will need to add size for the playoffs.

[Venti Quattro]

crofl terry

lol what the fuck :lmao

[sribb43]

Good, physical game. Dirk bailing the Mavs out. Par for the course. Sinking shots, nailing asses to the tree of woe.

It's dirk and maybe JET shows up every 5th game...sad just sad for Dirk

Dallas got this

[21_Blessings]

Classic Maverick basketball

[HarlemHeat37]

[DeadlyDynasty]

nice win, congrats

[Giuseppe]

Fuck me.

[Texas_Ranger]

talk some shit now KG.

[sribb43]

Nice win, once JJ left the floor I knew the mavs had it. Should have blasted the c's considering they were on a b2b and short handed

[Jelloisjigglin]

Good defense by Dirk on KG there. Nice win for Dallas

[21_Blessings]

Good defense by Dirk on KG there. Nice win for Dallas

You mean chandler

[BRHornet45]

You mean chandler

exactly .. Chandler did all the defensive work. Dirk has no D

[mystargtr34]

:lol great finish to the game.... is it just me or does Rondo never pass the ball to Pierce in last possession set plays?

Also... Dirk took a pretty big shit on Garnett in that last quarter.. scored on him pretty much every time he went at him... not to mention Big Baby

Typical Dirk tbh

[Ghazi]

lol Lisa Anne

[HarlemHeat37]

Rondo is actually terrified to take a last-second shot..he was so reluctant to take that last shot:lol..

[resistanze]

Sons, no surprise Tyson came to Dallas and is suddenly playing like a beast.

[mystargtr34]

Is Haywood pouting yet Mavfan? With Tyson playing like this he will probably get traded .. he wont be getting much time.

[j.dizzle]

The rest of the league should be happy that Rondo cant shoot for shit hahaa. Ppl dont even bother guarding him. He was WIDE open for like 5 seconds on that last clank he threw up haha

[ElNono]

Rondo is actually terrified to take a last-second shot..he was so reluctant to take that last shot:lol..

I've seen a bunch of teams do it. They just dare him to shoot and sometimes don't even guard him (like the Heat). He had this game in his hands with a wide open three. He's gonna have to do something about it.

[21_Blessings]

The rest of the league should be happy that Rondo cant shoot for shit hahaa. Ppl dont even bother guarding him. He was WIDE open for like 5 seconds on that last clank he threw up haha

That's why his hype is laughable. How about you don't shoot 50% from the line and make the other team guard you in the NBA finals. :lol

[mystargtr34]

I think hes hands are probly abnormally large compared to his body... thats probly half of it. Also the reason why most white guys are better jump shooters than black guys... smaller hands.

[SomeCallMeTim]

Dirk is just too good..pretty sad that he has the worst supporting cast for a star player in the entire NBA:lol..

Celtics had a good idea there, they sent a double, but did it too late..teams need to double Dirk in clutch time the second he receives the ball, make the scrubs beat you..

Yeah, I looked at Dallas' roster tonight and was shocked at how much the team has fallen off. If this was a few years ago then that roster would seem stacked, but Terry has fallen off and Marion has gone from putting up star numbers to just disappearing. Kidd is still very good but is slowing down. Chandler could be great but is hurt so much. Butler has really regressed and Stevenson used to be decent but now gives nothing.

With Beaubois out this team has zero depth.

[SomeCallMeTim]

I think hes hands are probly abnormally large compared to his body... thats probly half of it. Also the reason why most white guys are better jump shooters than black guys... smaller hands.

I hear this "large hands = bad shooter" thing all the time... is there any evidence it is true?

Upon what exactly is this particular truism based? That 7-footers are typically relatively poor FT shooters?

Couldn't it be just as likely that 7-footers are selected to play in the NBA for skills other than their outside shooting?

The whole statement just doesn't pass the sniff test to me. It would seem to me that being able to better grasp an object would give one better control over its spin and trajectory, therefore being an aid rather than impedance to accuracy.

I don't know, maybe I'm way off here... someone convince me I'm wrong.

I hear this "large hands = bad shooter" thing all the time... is there any evidence it is true?

Upon what exactly is this particular truism based? That 7-footers are typically relatively poor FT shooters?

Couldn't it be just as likely that 7-footers are selected to play in the NBA for skills other than their outside shooting?

The whole statement just doesn't pass the sniff test to me. It would seem to me that being able to better grasp an object would give one better control over its spin and trajectory, therefore being an aid rather than impedance to accuracy.

I don't know, maybe I'm way off here... someone convince me I'm wrong.

An ideal shooting style means the hand would be in contact with the ball from pretty much the middle of the hand to the tips of the fingers... having big hands means the ball has to travel further along your hand and therefore increases the margin for error. Obviously not everyone shoots the same way... some guys like Ray Allen only use a small portion of their hand .. whereas when Rondo shoots the ball pretty much sits in his palm. Changing his shooting technique/mechanics would probly help solve it.. but only to a certain extent.

Or you can just knuckle ball it like Shaq..

Tonight's outcome was no surprise since KG has been Dirk's bitch his whole career no matter where he's been.

HOWEVA, the lack of a supporting cast remains the same. Butler needs to step up, Beaubois needs to turn into Isaiah Thomas, or Jason Terry needs to be clutch or else we're looking at another 1st/2nd round exit.

Didn't the Celtics play last night? Their average age is 53, yet they still took the Mavs to the limit. Don't count your eggs too soon Mavcrew.

Mavs played without Roddy and with Butler known as the artist formerly known as Josh formerly known as Stack

Well despite the lack of any punctuation, I gathered you were stating that you would rather your team toil in obscurity rather than be wildly successful. Why would you want that? Doesn't make any sense. Although if your FO shares your views then that would explain what happened to your ball club.

So being a cancer equates to being successful? How does that make any sense? You stated nobody mentions the Kings. I'd rather not be mentioned than be considered a cancer. A little clearer for you now?

Not sure, but seems pretty legit. Been a prick to him the entire time and he has yet to resort to personal attacks or anything like that.
