[fallenmongol]

[Tobias]

[CharlieMac]

I hope Dirks ankle is broken.

[picnroll]

[ballhog]

Needed a makeup call.

[Horry For 3!]

Thats fuckin bullshit

[Tobias]

[Jimcs50]

TD fouled out

Need to step up and make shots now

[Rummpd]

Novitski

[fallenmongol]

OK I AM GOnna bring my shotgun and shoot that REFS head of!!

[CharlieMac]

Earl thinks this is great karma.

[dimsah]

If we can't have Duncan you can't have the german. Mother Fuckers.

[exstatic]

2003 again. Dirk is down. Dirk is down.

[Spurologist]

Where's the foul

[Behrooz24]

Faggot Ass Refs

[SpursGo25]

HOW Is that a foul on Duncan?? Fucking Dirk deserves this bad ankle. GOD doesnt like cheaters!

[WalterBenitez]

Good move TIM

[greyforest]

uh, i love that replay of that "foul" on tim.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Duncan Fouls Out, This Game Is Over God Damnit

[Horry For 3!]

Dirk steps on Timmy's foot and Timmy gets the foul??????????????

[Tobias]

We got a foul call? I call bullshit.
theyre yanking our chain
Toldja.

[ducks]

1:05 DAL - Full timeout (Timeout #6)
1:05 SA - Personal foul on T. Duncan
1:23 DAL - J. Howard defensive rebound

[exstatic]

Horry time.

[CharlieMac]

I hope Dirks ankle is broken.

I take that back, that's too harsh.

[Condemned 2 HelLA]

Nice acting job, Dirk!

[Spurologist]

That Dirk injury is similar to TD twisted ankle last year

[samauto]

Who will replace Duncan now?

[Amuseddaysleeper]

FUCK

duncan is out

2 more ft's for the mavs

we cant keep them out of the lane worth a shit

manu's missed FT will bite us in the ass


fuck!

[Behrooz24]

I havent seen this much bullshit since i watched Lebron vs the Wiz

[genghisrex]

Put in Horry.

[ballhog]

Nowit had no shot at that shot. Terrible call. Game over.

[fallenmongol]

I hope Dirk will die from infection!!

[Don Quixote]

Wow ... several shaky calls by the officials on both ends!

I didn't see the "foul" that got Tim rung up for his 6th. Looks like Dirk lost his balance, hurt himself, and tumbled into Tim.

[Nikos]

Manu misses another clutch FT. What else is new?

[Jimcs50]

I hope Dirks ankle is broken.


Fuck you!!!


That is fucking stupid....

[Spurologist]

Who will replace Duncan now?

HOORRRY

[A-Train]

What the fuck was that? Dirk runs over TD and gets the call?

[FreshPrince22]

Mavs are done anyways. Regardless. Dirk won't be the same on that ankle.

[Rummpd]

No the game is not over WAS IT OVER WHEN THE GERMANS BOMBED PEARL HARBOR*


Animal House's John Belushi (spelling?)

[exstatic]

It's not broken, but that damn roll is WAY too familiar a sight for Spurs fans. His mobility is compromised for the rest of the series.

[yeahone]

the refs is turning this into a freethrow shooting contest

[MannyIsGod]

Bullshit. My god the refs suck ass all around. I hate that we've lost our best player on a bullshit call.

[ducks]

It Is On You Now Manu
Make Them Pay

[Tek_XX]

Do you get the hint that there really is bias in this reffing crew. imaginery tripping calls, actually tripping...no call.

[loveforthegame]

Duncan didn't even foul him there. Dirk stepped on his foot and that's why Dirk contorted like that.

[CharlieMac]

Yeah, you gott aput Horry in on Offense atleast.

[WalterBenitez]

Dirk steps on Timmy's foot and Timmy gets the foul??????????????

Have you heard about Star treatment at home?

[A-Train]

Awful call. Hope his ankle is alright.

[Spurologist]

Dirk has to take these FTs or he won't return to the game

[ashbeeigh]

If we can't have Duncan you can't have the german. Mother Fuckers.

:tu

[ballhog]

Fouled by Tim's foot. I've seen it all. To go out on ticky tack calls in bullshit.

[Vingianx]

fuck dirk nowitzki i hope the bitch broke something

[Nikos]

It Is On You Now Manu
Make Them Pay

Doubt it will happen.

[Deb]

no foul on tim dirk was already turning that ankle before contact

[Jimcs50]

I take that back, that's too harsh.


OK, me too :spin

[samauto]

Horry hasn't made a FG

[Tobias]

The Spurs are masters at fouling with theyre faces, running into elbows, gettng stepped on

[A-Train]

Worst. Call. Ever.

[SpursGo25]

This shit is so damn fixed that even GOD cant take it anymore. The NBA is commiting a felony and the head brass and the refs need to be in jail.

[WalterBenitez]

Ster said refs are losing 5% of the calls ... come on don't give me that shit tonigth

[greyforest]

Have you heard about Star treatment at home?

uh what happened in game 2 at home for spurs?

oh yes, the entire crowd chanting "refs suck"

its obvious who the favored team is by the refs this series. fuck the refs.

[nkdlunch]

It's May Manu tonight

[~Sweetmelody~]

I hope Dirk is okay.

But Tim is out :depressed

[CharlieMac]

Nevermind, the Nazi is back.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

This Game Is Over

[Vingianx]

we're dead without our big guy

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Ooooo Myyy Look How Fun Those Mavs Fans Are Having After Watching Dirk Hit His 21st Free Throw

[exstatic]

Take Dirk off the dribble. Do it NOW.

[ballhog]

Refs fucked them over again. The fix is on.;

[Tobias]

only down 1...

[CharlieMac]

Dirk getting 22 free throws. Somethings dont make sense in this world.

[mouse]

Who will replace Duncan now?


Doesn't Pop have Rose on speed dail?

[picnroll]

[ducks]

1:05 DAL - D. Nowitzki hits the first free throw

OPTION TWO FOR THE SPURS IS TO PLAY SMALL BALL

[Vingianx]

Fuck, Dirk, Fuck Avery, F Uck Dallas As A City, Fuck Everyone Who Loves The Mavs

[Don Quixote]

Crackhouse makes another circus shot. How many of those will they make.

Way to make a defensive stop in the clutch, guys!

[ducks]

:26.6 SA - Full timeout (Timeout #6)
:31.4 DAL - Layup by J. Stackhouse. Assist: D. Nowitzki

[Amuseddaysleeper]

wow this is where that earlier FT by manu woulda helped greatly

dallas will prolly force out of the lane and it will come down to our (shudder) jump shooting

[Ginobili_20_gold_medalist]

What a stupid triple team. Which would you rather have? Dirk shooting on a bad ankle or a wide open layup from Stackhouse right under the basket?

[nkdlunch]

This game will go to the last shot......


Manu anyone??????

[intlspurshk]

Believe God! The justice will be served! Go SPURS Go!!!

[Deb]

Gotta play thru the ref bullshit but Mavs did get the calls

[Nocioni]

stackhouse will choke again

[Tobias]

Did 63 games waste our Spurs or what??

[fallenmongol]

It really does not matter if we'll win this game or not. We will come back with vengeance and revenge and shut the Mavs mouth with REFs heads.

[Spurologist]

Doesn't Pop have Rose on speed dail?

Off you go. Horry is in

[Vingianx]

Crackhouse makes another circus shot. How many of those will they make.

Way to make a defensive stop in the clutch, guys!


good to know that there's nothing wrong with my tv or eyes that crackhouse and the circuss r making crazy unbelievable shots

[mouse]

Laughing at someone getting hur? is classless. Spurs deserve to lose now . I am pulling my Mo-Jo

[SpursGo25]

Need to find a way to score and get a stop. If there is a GOD he cant let the NBA get away with this crime. The Spurs are officially Robin Hood on hardcourt. STICK it to the NBA and STERN!!

GO SPURS GO

Take the WIN!

[exstatic]

wow this is where that earlier FT by manu woulda helped greatly
