Mavs @ Blazers Game 3, sponsored by Brandon Roy's tears

[badfish22]

Marion with the Kyle Orton bloadings

[NewJerSpur]

Dallas clamping down on D.

[InRareForm]

Dallas looks like a well oiled machine or is Portland just a dummy fools gold team

[mystargtr34]

Ah i see... the Blazers were in the penalty. Thanks

[Axe Murderer]

lol Marion's post game

[NewJerSpur]

B-rooooooooooooooy!!!!

[Spur-Addict]

Good defensive rotation there by Dallas preventing Roy from walking strait to the rim LOL

[NewJerSpur]

B-ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY!!! Showing Dallas how Seattle does it.

[NewJerSpur]

Roy blocked that Peja shot.

[badfish22]

:lol Terry gettin in that ass

[NewJerSpur]

JET=Hiroshima

[Axe Murderer]

There was only one MavFan here who had faith in Terry once the playoffs rolled around

#41 Shoot Em Up

[NewJerSpur]

JET vs. Roy=SEAtown showdown.....shot out to Jake One

[NewJerSpur]

Get it out barea!!!

[timtonymanu]

Team Role: Know Why You're Open.

What does that even mean?

[TDfan2007]

Dirk has played fantastic defense in this game.

[MavDynasty]

JJ Barea and his shitty drives imo

Haywood has surprised me so far this series. Best defender on Aldridge tbh and has boxed out and play worth a shit. If only he could make his free throws

[mystargtr34]

Who is this anorexic Johnson guy?

[MavDynasty]

Dirk has played fantastic defense in this game.

_irk doesn't play D :lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:rollin:rollin: rollin:rollin:rollin:rollin:rollin

[Axe Murderer]

JJ Barea and his shitty drives imo

Haywood has surprised me so far this series. Best defender on Aldridge tbh and has boxed out and play worth a shit. If only he could make his free throws

Best defender because Chandler can't play a minute without fouling tbh imho

[Fpoonsie]

Terry may be a bitch, but he's one WET bitch right now...

[NewJerSpur]

Man that Heineken commercial song is catchy.

[TDfan2007]

Team Role: Know Why You're Open.

What does that even mean?

:lol

[TDfan2007]

Dirk time.

[TDfan2007]

Lol fans talking shit.

[NewJerSpur]

Tech should be on those obnoxious fans.

[TDfan2007]

Wallace with a man's move in the paint.

[NewJerSpur]

Wallace FINALLY showing up, bad pass Rudy.

[TDfan2007]

Blazers killing themselves with mistake after mistake on defense.

[TDfan2007]

Batum what a move!

[mystargtr34]

Terry should of punched that fuckhead Portland fan on the sideline.

[4>0rings]

lol mavs

[NewJerSpur]

BaTOMB, burying the Mavs.....get it?

[TDfan2007]

Batum finally showing up. Good closeout by Terry, but a better shot.

[MavDynasty]

Dumbfuck Barea can't get Dirk the ball and over dribbles and wastes the shot clock

[Texas Chili Dog]

That fan who was in Terry's face is the exact same fan who was thrown out of a Mavs game there at the end of last regular season.

[spursbird]

What if we had drafted Batum...

[mystargtr34]

Seemed like the Mavs were in control all game.. letting it slip now

[NewJerSpur]

Dumbfuck Barea can't get Dirk the ball and over dribbles and wastes the shot clock

To his defense, he's been punking the Blazer's "interior defense" all series....they just started to recognize it, but I see your frustration.

[TDfan2007]

Roy is making the right play every time down court. His handles are ridiculous.

[Spur-Addict]

ut ohhhhhh

[NewJerSpur]

Best chance for the Blazers to win, blow the Mavs out.

[MavDynasty]

Get Kidd in, Dirk isn't getting the ball where he wants it and JJ hasn't done shit.

[TDfan2007]

What a block!

[NewJerSpur]

Get it out Dirk.

[TDfan2007]

Terry has been ridiculous today.

[TDfan2007]

Chandler got jobbed.

[NewJerSpur]

Terry trying to will the Mavs to a win, but no one's with him.

[sefant77]

half of chandlers fouls were bs

[DJ Mbenga]

time for a carlisle 50k fine.

[Nathan89]

Chandler really knows how to make his fouls count.

[InRareForm]

dallas has one more run in them. dirk getting started

[MavDynasty]

Need Brewer on the floor

[lurker]

I blame this on the bird.

[MavDynasty]

or Peja imo

[NewJerSpur]

As someone said earlier, this is looking like 2006 Jason Terry vs. the spurs.

[Axe Murderer]

I blame this on the bird.

http://imgross.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/lurker.jpg

[NewJerSpur]

I blame this on the bird.

I would, thing is annoying as all hell.

[Texas Chili Dog]

As someone said earlier, this is looking like 2006 Jason Terry vs. the spurs.

More like 2005 vs Rockets. Scored 12 more points in that series.

[NewJerSpur]

Got to blow the Mavs out to kill'em.

[DJ Mbenga]

carlisle is gonna get a huge fine. over the back

[MavDynasty]

Nice fucking noncall, lol Camby jumping all over JKidds back and no call.

[sefant77]

camby over the bac, another 2 points

[i MAke GOod POlls]

Mavs are getting ridiculously screwed over with calls

[NewJerSpur]

Wallace has done nothing on offense, but putting him on Kidd looks to be a great decision by Nate.

[DJ Mbenga]

drik cant box out

[TDfan2007]

Barrea is playing fantastic post D...flopping aside.

[NewJerSpur]

props to Barea for fighting in the post.

[DJ Mbenga]

wtf . terry at sf?

[InRareForm]

dirk and wallace were having a arm waving contest

[NewJerSpur]

Good foul.

[TDfan2007]

Mavs players are flailing around like crazy. Blazers can't execute in crunch time.

[NewJerSpur]

Haywood sucks.

[Texas Chili Dog]

get aids, Haywood

[i MAke GOod POlls]

The entire Portland franchise is annoying as hell

From their players to the fans to the coach. Can't wait for them to get eliminated

[DJ Mbenga]

3 choked fts are gonna hurt them

[NewJerSpur]

Wallace showing hard on Kidd....no more open 3's.

[DJ Mbenga]

my goodness haywood is utter trash. dampier 2.0

[hitmanyr2k]

3 choked fts are gonna hurt them

Story of their playoff lives.

[NewJerSpur]

Aldridge rushed that shot.

[mystargtr34]

Get Haywood out

[MavDynasty]

Fucking missed FT's biting the Mavs in the ass

[MavDynasty]

Get Haywood out

I don't think Mahinmi is active and no way Dirk is playing C

[NewJerSpur]

my goodness haywood is utter trash. dampier 2.0

At least Damp would give you a few unexpected buckets in the paint and could make his FT's.

[Texas Chili Dog]

Shawn Bradley would have drained those FTs.

[sefant77]

Aldridge is like 90% on long jumper this series...

[NewJerSpur]

Shawn Bradley would have drained those FTs.

:lol

[TDfan2007]

Aldridge with a dagger mid-range J. He needs to stick to that and his faceup game. His post offense has been trash in this series.

[NewJerSpur]

Game.

[hitmanyr2k]

Camby shot that with alligator arms.

[TDfan2007]

Dirk needed to touch the ball more in the fourth quarter...and hit his FTs.

[Strike]

Is that why Brandon cried? Because he wants to take idiotic shots like that? What a douchebag.

[MavDynasty]

Dirk trying his best to bring Dallas back in. Not enough time though tbh

[NewJerSpur]

Still should be game, unless Portland chokes this away. Dirk with 3 missed FT's, WOW.

[Tinystarz]

Dirk needed to touch the ball more in the fourth quarter...and hit his FTs.

hit shotsperiod tbh

[TDfan2007]

It seems like Dirk never misses a shot in the last few minutes of a game. Also, once again, Portland has ZERO offensive execution.

[Shank]

Not worried. G'night.

[DJ Mbenga]

wow they ran away from kidd and he stands on the line!

[hitmanyr2k]

You have a great shooter in Aldridge and they're not getting him the ball? Why not put him in a pick and roll?

[NewJerSpur]

That's some bad transition defense.....stooge-like.

[TDfan2007]

WOW Portland. WOW.

[Texas Chili Dog]

Unreal Kidd...do you SEE the fucking three point line??

[Texas Chili Dog]

that's a three! phew

[hitmanyr2k]

That's a 3 pointer.

[lurker]

That was a 3. Damn.

[DJ Mbenga]

thats the best view. its a 3

[Texas Chili Dog]

no fucking way. Are you fucking kidding?????????????????

[DJ Mbenga]

here we go again. time for the nba to apoligize again

[NewJerSpur]

Guess they only had one angle on replay, lol.

[MavDynasty]

Wtf

[024]

lol nba officials

[MavDynasty]

Fuck you nba

[NewJerSpur]

What a game.

[i MAke GOod POlls]

Road teams ALWAYS get screwed big time in the Rose Garden

[Tinystarz]

:lol wow....that's as close to line as you can get.

[lurker]

Guess they only had one angle on replay, lol.
They were watching King Of Queens over there.

[MB3//]

Wow. Even with replay.

[hitmanyr2k]

Guess they only had one angle on replay, lol.

You have to wonder what good is replay if they don't see all angles lol.

[TDfan2007]

You have a great shooter in Aldridge and they're not getting him the ball? Why not put him in a pick and roll?

Because he's been garbage in one on one situations today. Pick and pop maybe.

Props to Dallas. They fought to the end, got jobbed by the refs, and still almost came back to win. This series is over in 5...6 at the most.

[NewJerSpur]

NBA officiating folks.

[024]

doesn't matter anyways if miller makes these

[DJ Mbenga]

wow. not bad portland.

[MB3//]

I am convinced the blazers camera crew kept that view from the officials. Wow.

[Capt. Obvious]

NBA officiating folks.
The NBA, where TNT announcers get to see better replay angles than the officials happens.

[TDfan2007]

The NBA, where TNT announcers get to see better replay angles than the officials happens.

:lol

[Nathan89]

doesn't matter anyways if miller makes these

He would of had more pressure. Big difference.

[NewJerSpur]

wow. not bad portland.

Didn't know if they'd be able to pull it off.....tbh.

Besides that inexcusable 3, B-ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYY !!!!

[monosylab1k]

wow. not bad portland.

:lol what?

they threw their hardest haymaker and Dallas still almost won.

no way portland comes out with that level of intensity next game. Dallas in 5.

[NewJerSpur]

The NBA, where TNT announcers get to see better replay angles than the officials happens.

:lol:rollin:lmao POST OF THE NIGHT.

[Bill_Brasky]

wouldn't have mattered anyway.

[MB3//]

How long before Cuban is putting fine worthy material on his blog?

[Axe Murderer]

:lol what?

they threw their hardest haymaker and Dallas still almost won.

no way portland comes out with that level of intensity next game. Dallas in 5.

:lol you drunk brah?


Fuck you Rick.

Fuck you Barea.

Fuck you Roddy.

Fuck you Dirk.

Fuck you Avery.

Fuck you Mark.

Fuck all of you.

Blazers in 6.

[NewJerSpur]

B-Roy, needing a shave, but showing how they do it in PNW.....shout out to Jake One, welcome "Home".

[monosylab1k]

:cry Dallas should blow the team up! :cry

[InRareForm]

Mavs in 5

[Nathan89]

wouldn't have mattered anyway.


He would of had more pressure. Big difference.

[Ghazi]

oh well, not too upset by this loss.. we didnt play that bad, just came up a little short

still liking our boys chances in the series..

[Shank]

B-Roy, needing a shave, but showing how they do it in PNW.....shout out to Jake One, welcome "Home".

I wouldn't put my eggs in that basket. He's done.

[Axe Murderer]

:cry 37-45 :cry

[badfish22]

:lol what?

they threw their hardest haymaker and Dallas still almost won.

no way portland comes out with that level of intensity next game. Dallas in 5.

Can't help but feel the same way. Feels like we got their best shot this game. Mavs will correct a few games and steal game 4 and then wrap it up at home.

[Ghazi]

even if we don't steal game 4... I still like our chances ;)

[Frenzy]

Way to go dirk.

[NewJerSpur]

i wouldn't put my eggs in that basket. He's done.

b-rooooooooooooooooooooooooooooyyyyyyy!!!!

[badfish22]

http://streetganglife.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/user1680_1156825450.jpg

[Axe Murderer]

But yeah, Dallas still taking it in 5 games though

[Darthkiller]

despite all that, mavs should have won. too many missed FTs at the end cost them

[crc21209]

The Rose Garden is going to be nuts tonight, Blazers in a close one...

Called it...:tu

[badfish22]

http://beyondwonderful.com/images/recipes/desserts_vanilla_ice_cream_300x450.jpg

[lurker]

Called it...:tu
It would have been more impressive if you had called there being a penguin in the arena.

[Cuckolded Sissy]

Terry won't have another playoff game like that again in his career

[NewJerSpur]

It would have been more impressive if you had called there being a penguin in the arena.

penguin=MVP

Cuban sleeping on the job letting that one go.

[crc21209]

It would have been more impressive if you had called there being a penguin in the arena.

:lol Please. I couldve easily said Dallas wins like all you idiots were thinking, or Portland wins in a blowout since Dallas hadnt won all year there....jackass.

[Nathan89]

:lol Kenny Smith story about taking a peak over his shoulder on the fast break.

[badfish22]

Terry won't have another playoff game like that again in his career

Either will Matthews.

Also Kidd played awful, and Chandler barely got to play. This loss doesn't concern me too much.

[Ghazi]

Either will Matthews.

Also Kidd played awful, and Chandler barely got to play. This loss doesn't concern me too much.

either will Roy.. IMO

Mavs in 5-6, IMO..

[TDfan2007]

even if we don't steal game 4... I still like our chances ;)

Agha, I'm pretty sure you guys will steal game 4. Portland's 4th quarter execution is just not up to par and you guys...well...you have Dirk. Although I doubt Terry will shoot that well again in this series.

[Pelicans78]

Didn't like JJ's defense in the 4th. Should have gone with someone bigger.

Also, Haywood needed help against LaMarcus. I wish Dirk would have been asked to guard him. He would have done a better job.

[lurker]

:lol Please. I couldve easily said Dallas wins like all you idiots were thinking, or Portland wins in a blowout since Dallas hadnt won all year there....jackass.
You're a little too sensitive, Nostradamus.

[NewJerSpur]

Dirk in a press conference:

Never too high, never too high.

EDIT: I meant "low"

[lil_penny]

good game mavs fans

[Jacob1983]

Got to make free throws if you want to win.

[quentin_compson]

Portland is lucky to have won that game with the kind of atrocious Pick and Roll-defense they played. Seriously, can't someone explain to LMA how you're supposed to defend the Pick and Roll?
At least Portland were able to milk the size-mismatches on the guard positions.

[stretch]

ugh what is Rick Carlisles obsession with the 3pg lineup. Its fine to change pace for small 5 minute spurts, but it should NEVER be used to close games, especially if you are behind, and the other team has been making it a point all series to take advantage of your lack of size. And Stevenson needs a few more minutes out there. Barea and Terry shouldn't be on the floor together as much as they are.

if Marion or Peja was playing in the closing lineup instead of Barea, the Mavs probably win. oh well. This was the game I expected the Mavs to lose. They will win the next two and close out in 5 as I predicted.

[tlongII]

F U Mavs! We're tying this bitch up tomorrow! :flipoff

[tlongII]

The Mavs can't handle the crowd at the Rose Garden. You can tell it's getting to them.

[Axe Murderer]

The Mavs can't handle the crowd at the Rose Garden. You can tell it's getting to them.

Probly right tbh

I hate that the Mavs have to bitch about every borderline call, i thought being a veteran team they would be above that...

[ohmwrecker]

The Mavs are due for a reality check. Not sure if the Blazers are up for it though.

Those Rose Gardeners are one helluva sixth man.

[Shank]

The Mavs can't handle the crowd at the Rose Garden. You can tell it's getting to them.

Except for when they were executing in the 2nd and 3rd quarters and took the crowd out of it. 2007 Oracle >>>>>>>>>>>> 2011 Rose Garden. These guys are professionals. If anything, it has more of an effect on the nerve of the officials than the players.

[cheguevara]

Mavfans were claiming victory too soon. Already talking about Lakers 2nd round. :lmao

[tlongII]

If the refs don't feel like their lives are in imminent danger then we, as fans, are not doing our job in the Rose Garden.

[tlongII]

And 2007 Oracle is not more intimidating than 2011 Rose Garden. The Mavs may benefit from experiencing 2007 Oracle though.

[cheguevara]

still blazer arena can't hold OKC arena's jockstrap.

[tlongII]

still blazer arena can't hold OKC arena's jockstrap.

Bullshit. OKC is a bunch of wannabe's.

[Axe Murderer]

Rose Garden definitely has the best atmosphere imho

[Axe Murderer]

2007 Oracle probably beats the Rose Garden only because that team hadn't made the playoffs in a million years. And it was really only game 3, after that game there was a big dropoff imho

I'm not as hard on Pop as many of my Spur cohorts, but this also drives me crazy with him as well. I HATE seeing Parker, Hill, and Neal on the floor at the same time and it's driven me crazy ever since Pop started doing it to compensate for the the loss of Anderson who'd gone down with a leg injury. Granted, neither Gary Neal nor George Hill is really a PG per say, but the size advantages it creates for the other team is tough to overcome when they recognize the mismatch potential....glad he finally started cutting that nonsense out.

Oddly enough, the only time it makes sense is when the Spurs play Dallas and Carlisle does the same thing.

[Texas Chili Dog]

yeah, see what i mean?

hey, it's me! :lol
