Jason Terry suspended (old thread)

[whottt]

Agreed.

Pop always says that he hates playing short-handed teams because they are like a wounded animal fighting to survive.

People shouldn't start to count their chickens concerning a Game 6 win.



Pop should slap himself upside the head for sending the tape in then :)

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

when he was called to the locker room by coach Avery Johnson. He didn't return.

i dont even wanna know

[smeagol]

People who are saying the suspension is weak should go look at the tape.

It's a closed fist punch.

A punch = automatic suspension.

The league didn't have much choice on this.
What do you expect from tlong? :lol

[gingko]

Fine Kori....where is the tape.

probably told him he could kiss a big Mavs contract goodbye

[Despot]

Pop talks about not liking to play teams that are short handed because of letdowns. If the Spurs are going to let down in an elimination game they deserve to go fishing.


It's not just about a letdown, or the Mavs fighting harder. We have been playing the Mavs a certain way for 5 games and we are used to them, now that will undoubtedly change, and the Mavs are now an unknown quantity. It may be good for us, it may be bad.

[Kori Ellis]

Fine Kori....where is the tape.

We can't post game tape here. You'll probably have to wait to see it on the news.

[Jimcs50]

It was weak. They were lying on the floor and Finley had assaulted him.

Finley should be suspended as well...damn ruffian.

[SAGambler]

You didn't see a punch, you saw Finley crying after Terry was fighting for the ball.

Just saw the play on the news.. Terry punched him.. No doubt about it...

And on the news they just said the rumor in Dallas is that Terry won't be suiting up tomorrow night...

[Kori Ellis]

It's not a rumor. The press release came out that he's suspended.

:lol awesome, bring him to the Nuggets for Dre and a filler and we can have reggie and jason as our 'nut thugs' :lol

[Mavs<Spurs]

I'd just like to point out...

Raja Bell getting suspended didn't excactly put the Lakers over the top...


If Dirk was suspended maybe it would be cause for a Fiesta in SA...Terry? He aint all that.

Whott, news flash: the Lakers aren't the Spurs.


Jason Terry put up 30 + points in one of the games we lost.

Spurs won't get overconfident in an elimination game on the road. If they lose (which I don't think they will), it won't be due to overconfidence.

If being without Terry is better for the team (as some here seem to suggest), why doesn't Cuban get rid of him or Avery keep him on the bench. I mean Cuban and Avery both want to win, don't they? So, apparently they seem to feel that having Terry on the court and playing enormous minutes benefits them. Do you really think that the Mavericks without Terry are better than or equal to the Mavericks with Terry?

Anyone really believe that and want to try to defend that? Any intellectual gymnists present?

[4001 STEREO SPUR]

Stern is a bitch. Fucking take that power shit away from him. So much for that conspiracy of Stern wanting the mavs to win. This is so unfair.

Tough Titty for Dallas.

You order shit, you eat shit!

[MannyIsGod]

:lmao @ the Mavs fans on Mavtalk. Those fuckers are the most myopic fans on earth. Now they believe a player who throughs a punch shoudln't be suspended and hits horseshit. Classic.

[Extra Stout]

I always want a full-strength team. Now if/when the Spurs win game 6, this place will go bonkers with Mavs trolls saying 'the fix is in' or 'wait till you beat the whole team', shit like that. I am tired of people saying the Spurs should have asterisks next to their titles.
You still get bothered by that? Three titles in seven years, yet fans of teams who have never won anything can get to you by impugning championships they could only experience in their wettest, wildest dreams?

The inferiority complex is strong in this one.

In the event this happenstance turned the series in the Spurs' favor toward an ultimate 7-game victory, would you not enjoy the schadenfreude accompanying the spectacle of Mavfan, having thought he grasped at long, long last sweet victory over his team's nemesis, the summit after much grinding toil finally climbed, the view ahead at end unencumbered, not just to see such triumph fumbled away, but to regard it as brutally pried away from their steadfast grip by the game's very arbiters, with the concomitant gnawing sense of powerlessness and rage?

Would you not enjoy their rending internal conflict between their love for the game and inability to turn away from it, and their gut-wrenching disgust at the injustice they would feel had befallen them? Shouldn't your endorphins flow all the more as they seethe and their teeth grind to powder?

[timvp]

It's not just about a letdown, or the Mavs fighting harder. We have been playing the Mavs a certain way for 5 games and we are used to them, now that will undoubtedly change, and the Mavs are now an unknown quantity. It may be good for us, it may be bad.

Not having to guard a Dirk/Terry pick-and-roll next game is a good thing. At this point there are no secrets. Just expect for Devin Harris pick-and-rolls and more Isos for people like Josh Howard and Jerry Stackhouse.

Oh no, we would have won if Terry had played. But now that he is suspended we will certainly lose. The sky is falling. I am returning the gift horse given because he is too nice. The glass is one tenth empty.

Unbeavable. Bowen punches whomever he's guarding 50 times a game.

[gameFACE]

It could cause the other Mavs to really step up their play throwing the Spurs a curve. I know Terry isn't Dirk but I hate the Spurs playing undermanned team. I guess the difference is that the Spurs are fighting against elimination.

Pop always says that he hates playing short-handed teams because they are like a wounded animal fighting to survive.

But aren't the Spurs a wounded animal too since they are facing elimination?

Dallas’ Jason Terry Suspended for Game 6
NEW YORK, May 18 – Jason Terry of the Dallas Mavericks has been suspended one game without pay for punching San Antonio’s Michael Finley, it was announced today by Stu Jackson, NBA Senior Vice President Basketball Operations.
The incident occurred with 3.4 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter of the Mavericks 98-97 loss to the Spurs last night at AT&T Center. Terry will serve his suspension Friday night as the Mavericks host the Spurs for Game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

just saw on nba.com! ya'll prob already knew that! F*** that lil punk! I hate dirty players! it's goin down tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK, Extra Stout, I get what you are saying. I am not upset by the suspension, and I think its fair. But I am a little wary is all. And I have no inferiority complex in regards to the Spurs. I wouldnt be watching the games if I did. I jut get tired of old smack.

Yeah they'll change. They'll play Daniels more in all likelihood. I know one thing, Mavs will have more turnovers. More transiton baskets for the Spurs. Manu pressuring Daniels, I like it.

[ducks]

why is howard due a big game
he played well spurs adjusted

he is not a vet or yet

he is good but he can still improve

I think Oberto or Horry will start game 6, and they will bring Fin off the bench.

Bowen will start out on Howard, Ginobili on Daniels, and Horry on Dirk.

At least Bowen calmed Finley down. He almost lost it.

Bowen was very cool in the closing seconds. He also stopped Duncan from overcelebrating Bowen's block. Then he calmed down Finley after the punch.

[whottt]

He stopped Bowen from overcelebrating Bowen's block.

If anyone could stop Bruce...it'd be Bruce.

Make up rules? What? Hip checking/piledriving someones head into the floor is suspendible. Those are the set rules. You can't just ignore the side of the infraction on your teams side. Oh wait, I forgot certain sets of fans seem to apply the double standard on a consistent basis.

If there was anything suspendable that Finley was doing, he would have been suspended.

1 if that even happened, we have no idea if that was intentional since if it more than possible that Michael lost his balance while trying to get a jump ball situation. 2 An intentional punch is an automatic suspension. 3 It was to the groin, a very sensitive area for us guys 4 Michael was extremely upset which he would not have been, had he initiated it. Bruce had to restrain Michael.

All of those points show that there is not any basis for penalty for Michael.
Apparently, NBA agrees since Michael has not been fined or suspended.

[whottt]

You oversimplfy things...

Jason Terry is not an immortal...he's capable of having a big game, he's also capable of sucking...


Thats like asking if Lou Gehrig was so great how come he couldn't beat out Wally Pipp.

You act like coaches never decide to yank players for shitty play, or players never beat out other players late in the season...


Haven't you ever seen Tony or Manu's ass get yanked from a game for shitty play?

How come Robert Horry and his 6 rings and playoff resume can't get off the bench?

Jason Terry is not essential for the Mavs to beat us...and if he's having an off night, he may indeed make it easier for us to win...

This suspension could help us...it could also hurt us depending on what the unknowns playing behind him do. For all we know Terry just started his last game as a Mav...Unlikely but...it's not like Terry is Jordan...he wasn't that great last night.

[tlongII]

This series is definitely taking a nasty turn.

Mark Cuban sez:

"Unbelievable," Mavs owner Mark Cuban wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press. "Michael Finley does a pile driver with his hip to Jason's head while he is on the ground. Jason is on his back with Ginobili laying on top of him."

"No question he tried to get Finley off of him and he should be fined for that. But to suspend him is questionable."

You can tell you've been under the spell of Mark Cuban when you can't figure out the "intent" of punching someone in the nuts.

It's fine. Even though I think the Mavs get beat now on Friday and it sets up a helluva Game 7... Spurs should watch out, and they're smart enough that I think they will. This game has a strong chance of being surprisingly competitive.

[strangeweather]

They were going for a loose ball that was going to decide the game.


No shit. :lol

What brutal punch?!? You're exageratting!! :drunk

Get punched in the nuts(if you have any), even by an old woman, and tell me it's not brutal. Now picture a tough guy like Terry hitting you in the nuts. It's like physics with balls.

Don't worry you won't have to see them anymore after Friday night.


fuck you, go cry for the JET

[whottt]

Any punch to the nuts is brutal. Isn't it?


Not if you are a Maver...er have no balls.

[texas84]

:lol :lol :lol

GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE DARLING.

Nah, I'm good.

[Vingianx]

It's because they're not boring - is that why you hate the Mavs?

And why should Manu have any time to bitch to the refs? I loved it when JET took the ball away from The Nose.


Don't say shit till you Dallas Fags actually win something

[Mavs<Spurs]

You oversimplfy things...

Jason Terry is not an immortal...he's capable of having a big game, he's also capable of sucking...


Thats like asking if Lou Gehrig was so great how come he couldn't beat out Wally Pipp.

You act like coaches never decide to yank players for shitty play, or players never beat out other players late in the season...


Haven't you ever seen Tony or Manu's ass get yanked from a game for shitty play?

How come Robert Horry and his 6 rings and playoff resume can't get off the bench?

Jason Terry is not essential for the Mavs to beat us...and if he's having an off night, he may indeed make it easier for us to win...

This suspension could help us...it could also hurt us depending on what the unknowns playing behind him do. For all we know Terry just started his last game as a Mav...Unlikely but...it's not like Terry is Jordan...he wasn't that great last night.


whott: This logic does not make sense. I'm sure that you are smarter than this.

We are looking at the most likely course of events here. It seems to me that it is likely that Terry would benefit the Mavs more in game 6 at home than that he would hurt them.

What is more likely to occur? Terry plays and helps them more than he hurts them or Terry plays and hurts them more than he helps them.

Is it not completely obvious that the former is much more likely than the latter?

My comments were not an oversimplification. Since neither of us know the future, we have to contemplate what is the more likely course of events. It seems clear that it is more likely that Terry's play would help them more than hurt them.

Getting to work often is heavily dependent upon having a car. However, I may get in a car accident and die. Therefore, if I lost my car, it really is a good thing.

Interesting method of reasoning.


Seems arbitrary to say that Terry is not a serious loss to them unless you believe that Terry is a borderline mediocre player.

I don't believe that. I think he is a punk, but does have good basketball skills.

Do you really think that Terry is a borderline mediocre player??

If so, I disagree and I think most fans would also disagree with you (regardless of team preference).

If not, then your line of reasoning must apply to Dirk. But then it proves too much. For your method of reasoning has as its logical conclusion that losing Dirk would not be a serious blow to the team (most of the time- yes I know about the 2003 series-- but you may win the lottery once- that does not mean that it makes sense to play it continually because the odds are against you). Since, if your line of reasoning is true, it proves too much then your premise must be mistakes. (proof by contradiction) q.e.d.

[picnroll]

Mark Cuban sez:

"Unbelievable," Mavs owner Mark Cuban wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press. "Michael Finley does a pile driver with his hip to Jason's head while he is on the ground. Jason is on his back with Ginobili laying on top of him."

"No question he tried to get Finley off of him and he should be fined for that. But to suspend him is questionable."

Courtesy of our pals at Yahoo. Who didn't see this coming?
Hey dumbshit, rules are rules. You throw a punch you get suspended. Are rules too hard to follow? Oh yeah, I forgot, you're Mark Cuban.

Shit bag would be demanding a congressinalo investigation if Finley had coldcocked Terry's nut.

[Vingianx]

How one-sided are you people? Watch it again. The Nose was standing over the Mav. He had ample space and time to move on his own. The Mavs had every right to do what he did.


well tough shit, we been getting the short end of the stick for the past games

[J.T.]

Did Cuban use the pink font? :)

Do you really have to ask?

[gingko]

What some people are overlooking is that a punch is an automatic suspension. It doesn't matter if you were provoked, trying to get someone off you, whatever.

You aren't allowed to punch.

Suspension is the consequence.

Here is the exact wording from the NBA rule book:

" Violent acts of any nature on the court will not be tolerated. Players involved in altercations will be ejected, fined and/or suspended."

Which is why Terry should be suspended (if you think it was a punch), and also why Fin should be too.

[whottt]

The Suns shouldn't have been as good with their best perimeter defender out...Guess what? They were better, the suspension galvanized them, and they played their best games from the suspension on.


You oversimplify things....this doesn't make winning any more certain.

[spurs_666]

Lol, I agree, any un-sexual contact to the nuts is not pleasant... but brutal hits are usually followed by a drop to the ground, grabbing the crotch, loss of breath, etc.

If you're a woman, please don't lecture on hits to the nuts. There are varying degrees.

However, its all besides the point.

[Vingianx]

hey Dallas Fag Fans "Cest la Vie" deal with it

If you werent a spurs fan you would notice the same thing about duncan, parker, and ginobili. Parker in my opinion is the has the least class of anyone in the league. My friend went to a mavs spurs regular season game and while everyone else was getting autographs parker just walked by and stared at him. If anyone is a total asshole it is tony parker.
Yeah I bet a friend or a friend of a friend told you that!

Tony Parker is usually very very nice. He actually talked to me one on one one time I went to a game. I was wearing a Rasho jersey and he got Rasho to look at it and sign it.

Maybe he just doesn't sign stuff for people wearing mavs jerseys???

[Mavs<Spurs]

Point is definitely not that it makes a win more certain.

My point is that, most of the time, this scenario helps us more than it hurts us.

I think that we will win. However, the Mavericks are a very good basketball team, especially at home, even without Terry. So, it is quite possible that we will lose even though Terry won't play. Perhaps I view it is as 51 % chance of winning prior to the suspension and 52 % after the suspension (since I said that I think that we will win).

I think that this scenario does improve our odds of a victory (by how much I could not say). Whatever the odds were of our victory with Terry playing game 6, they are slightly better with Terry out.

For example, (removing the part where I said that I believe that the Spurs will win) our odds prior to the suspension could have been 30 %. With the suspension, they could be 32 %. All I claim is (again leaving out my belief that we would win the game with Terry playing) that most of the time, our odds of winning are better and that if we played 200 games with Terry playing in 100 of them and Terry not playing in the other hundred, I believe that we would win more of them when he does not play. Could be that we just win 1 more.

If the above reasoning is correct, then our odds of winning would be better without Terry playing.

Anything can happen in a game. Dampier could go for 50 points and 20 boards. Could happen. Anomalies do definitely happen. Don't bet on and expect singular events unless you've got money to burn.

Would love to see a 7 game series between #1 and #2 titans of Western Conference.
And my wish might have come true. Terry Suspension might do this.
Upon viewing the video pausing and replaying the dang small screen.
If you want to make igorrant fans comments please use another thread.
I concluded this as I posted in couple of Mavs forum........
First of all, I am not a mavs fan or spur fan. I love all NBA Team
I know JT is most religious/god loving guy so he woundn't do anything cheap.
After watching the video. Yes, no doubt he punched or fist waving saying get the hell off me, only JT knows that. MAY BE he punched intentionally OR he just wanted finely to get off him and he didn't know he was goin to hit finley "sensitive tool" i think finely overreacted and somebody in spurs office send the video to NBA league. I also want add that EVANS case grabing the nuts was more intentional than this and the league didn't do anything about it.
That said, I think MAVS team needs to be motivate from this accident and try to win the series. And at the same time SPURS needs to play hard and win the game. I am sure tommorrow official would be calling the game tight and would call each and every foul because of this accident. Who would take the benefit we will see tomorrow night :elephant
Good Luck to all MAVS and Spurs Fan. It would be a great game 6 AND may be game 7. :king :spin

There have been several posts here regarding the Reggie Evans incident. Reggie Evans was not suspended, however, Don Harris said that David Stern was on an airplane when the decision was made. He said that if he hadn't been traveling, he would have demanded that Reggie be suspended.

" Violent acts of any nature on the court will not be tolerated. Players involved in altercations will be ejected, fined and/or suspended."

Which is why Terry should be suspended (if you think it was a punch), and also why Fin should be too.

Mav fans are such self-parodies when it comes to understanding basketball sometimes you think they're actually Spur fans trying to make actual Mav fans look bad. I mean, nobody could really be this dumb, could they?

Anyway, HERE is the exact rule:


Section V.l: A player, coach or trainer must be
ejected for: (1) A punching foul


And just for good measure


(4) An attempted punch which does not
make contact

And just in case that's not enough, there's another entire section devoted to it:


Section IX—Punching Fouls
a Illegal contact called on a player for
punching is a personal foul and a team
foul. One free throw attempt shall be
awarded, regardless of the number of
previous fouls in the period.The ball
shall be awarded to the offended team
out-of-bounds on either side of the
court at the free throw line extended
whether the free throw is successful or
unsuccessful.
b. Any player who throws a punch,
whether it connects or not, has
committed an unsportsmanlike act. He
will be ejected immediately and
suspended for a minimum of one game.
c. This rule applies whether play is in
progress or the ball is dead.
d. In the case where one punching foul
is followed by another, all aspects of the
rule are applied in both cases, and the
team last offended is awarded
possession on the sideline at the free
throw line extended in the frontcourt.
e. A fine not exceeding $35,000 and/or
suspension may be imposed upon such
player(s) by the Commissioner at his
sole discretion.


But wait, there's MORE:


K. PUNCHING, FIGHTING AND
ELBOW FOULS
Violent acts of any nature on the court
will not be tolerated. Players involved in
altercations will be ejected, fined and/or
suspended.
Officials have been instructed to eject a
player who throws a punch, whether or
not it connects, or an elbow which
makes contact above shoulder level. If
elbow contact is shoulder level or
below, it shall be left to the discretion of
the official as to whether the player is
ejected. Even if a punch or an elbow
goes undetected by the officials during
the game, but is detected during a
review of a videotape, that player will be
penalized.
There is absolutely no justification for
fighting in an NBA game.The fact that
you may feel provoked by another
player is not an acceptable excuse. If a
player takes it upon himself to retaliate,
he can expect to be subject to
appropriate penalties.

I understand that last night's game was very heated and emotions were running high - however, Terry has only himself to blame for the suspension.

Michael Finley did not even talk about the incident after the game - Coach Pop said he wasn't even aware of it happening. But the video guys brought it to their attention and the tape was sent to the league for review.

Mavs fans have a right to be pissed, but don't be pissed at David Stern - be pissed at Jason Terry for pulling such a boneheaded stunt at such a crucial point in the playoffs.

Speaking of bonehead - wanna guess that Jason Terry will be up for the bonehead of the week on Sports Sunday?

If you call what he did "a punch" then THAT is what I call laughable!

Are you kidding!!!

You Guys are just jealous because now we have Finley!!! And he'll get a ring being with us!! hahahaha

[ShoogarBear]

Really? Those things come internally? I did not know that.

j/k :lol

Really, Mel, this is 2006. Get the USB version. :smokin

[Buddy Holly]

Tell tham to get off of him.

But seeing how your a Mavs fan and most Mav fans are... touching of the man parts is ok with them. Actually, idealy, its the first thing they'd do whether or not two basketball players were on top of them fighting for a loose ball.

[Horry For 3!]

Did anyone see a Mav push Manu aside to pick up another Mav player.

I'll have to watch it again to remember who exactly it was, but Manu was picking Timmy up and I'm not sure if Manu was gonna pick up the Mav player, but another Mav came and shoved Manu away to pick him up, kinda like "leave him alone and get away" kinda way.

No class.
That was Jason Terry who pushed Manu because he was standing over Harris picking up Timmy.

[Buddy Holly]

why did terry punch him in the nuts anyway?.

Like you, he's also into boys.

no but he is. i asked him that because i know there is no way in hell he has those words in his vocabulary. unless he asked his mama

[greywheel]

don't have time to read through this whole thread but Cuban is supposed to be doing the Jason Terry show. Terry is not allowed to do his show tonight :lol .
Anyways if anyone wants to listen go to ESPN 103.3 (http://www.espn1033.com/article.asp?id=123690#)

[gingko]

What's funny is that the video that's on WOAI was taken by the NBC affiliate in DALLAS!?

They should have burned it. :)

No, you see, unlike podunk, one horse cities, the media here is not beholden to the one team in town. They are not myopic cheerleaders (much like Steve Kerr).

Like me, he's also into boys.
why are you coming out to me? tell terry that when you see him at the game.

[greywheel]

He called in anyway.

[SilverPlayer]

Finley didn't land on Terry's head. His body is sideways across his chest. You can even see him settle into Terry, in the same way most loose ball scrums end. Finley doesn't even land on him hard, he is propped on his elbow, and then makes sure to sell the fact that he has his hands on the ball. He couldn't have been anymore careful in the way his body made conatct with Terry's body. This pile driving drivel is the stupidest things I have ever heard.

Yeah, they're beholden to myopic homerism for all the teams.

Damn, they are that stupid.

Jason Terry is an ignorant piece of shit ghetto boy who should have been shot in the face in a drive by shooting long ago. Like 90% of the NBA he is nothing more than a hood rat who doesnt deserve to live. I hope he gets shot in the nuts with a .45 the cornholed until he dies. Fuck Him!

[Horry For 3!]

I just watched that video on WOAI. I was wondering what the hell Finley was going on about and I saw him do a punching motion.


Jason Terry is a little bitch, literally.

[Buddy Holly]

No, you see, unlike podunk, one horse cities,

That is growing faster than the opposite nonpodunk, one horse city.

Huh? :lol


the media here is not beholden to the one team in town. They are not myopic cheerleaders

Why should they be, Dallas is their flyover to the bigger markets.

It's like a turnstile.

Here, they stay, here they care, here they have actual honest pride of their team.


(much like Steve Kerr).

The guy who lives in San Diego?

[Horry For 3!]

Cuban on Terry Suspension: "It's not right"
Mark Cuban, the Mavericks' owner, made the following comments in response to Terry's suspension in an e-mail sent to ESPN on Thursday.
"It's not right, and I told the league so.

"It's certainly not consistent with what the league has done in the past.

"Jason responds to a guy hipchecking him in the head while he is on his back and can't protect himself and he gets suspended. You can't throw a punch while you are on your back and someone is laying on you.

"If Jason had tried to get him off with an open hand, or an elbow, we wouldnt be talking about this at all. Look at [Manu] Ginobli in the replays, he is staring at everything that happens and doesn't respond at all, but all the while you can see the grimace on Jason's face.

"The league also said they didn't know if the [Michael] Finley piledriver with his hip to Jason's head while Ginobli was lying on him was intentional or not. So they couldn't do anything about it.

"Unbelievable. When it's all (said) and done, this series could end up being talked about for all the wrong reasons."
That is a bunch of fucking gay ass bullshit.

This isn't going to turn into a lame city smack thread, so knock it off.

Thanks.

[IceColdBrewski]

he said that? :lmao

I recorded the bitching and moaning with my little Olympus tape recorder. Here's I got on the playback.

Cuban: "Because the guy has a closed fist does not make it a punch"

[inaudible for a second or two because I'm laughing hysterically]

Cuban: "...if he rubs his nose with a closed fist, he punched himself according to the league definition"

He basically wanted Finley suspended too for "starting the whole thing" with his little hipcheck while fighting for the loose ball.

What a little bitch. :lol

did sequ or whatever the hell his name is teach you how to spell those words? everyone misses letters when they type but not that bad.

You are really a loser.

[Mavs<Spurs]

Right...the Lakers were a team that was up 3-1 in a series in which they did not have HCA...we are a team that was down 1-3 in a series in which we do.


Your argument appears to be that the Lakers were up 3-1 against the Suns.
In game 5 (or 6) ?, Raja Bell did not play due to suspension. But the Suns won anyway. Therefore, since the Mavs are as superior to the Spurs as the Suns were to the Lakers, the loss of a good player on the Mavs team does not mean that the Mavs will lose.

This argument has so many flaws that it is difficult to know where to start. I will make a beginning. First, do you believe that most of the time the Suns would beat the Lakers in that same situation? If so, Raja Bell should not play for the Suns whenever they play the Lakers. If not, then what occurred was an anomaly. Pick your poison.

Second, you can't pick and choose your analogies selectively.

Third, it is premature to believe that the Mavs are so much better than the Spurs that losing a good player on their team is of no negative consequence for them whatsoever.

The Suns beat the Lakers without Raja Bell; therefore the Mavericks will beat the Spurs without Jason Terry.

Are you just making this up as you go along? Shall we construct a truth table on this. Is it always the case that whenever the Suns beat the Lakers without Raja Bell that the Mavericks beat the Spurs without Jason Terry? Does the first statement always imply the second statement?

This entire line of reasoning is pure unadulterated speculation at this point since it is quite apparent that no cause effect relationship exists between the two propositions.



We don't know that the Mavericks are better than the Spurs. That's yet to be decided. They won game 2 largely due to scheduling (by drawing a team that has never won a single playoff game in their entire history and by the Spurs drawing a tough physical Kings team ). It was our 3rd game in 5 nights. Games 3 and 4, I believe were gifts from the referees and very close. In previous years, Spurs have 3 trophies and are the defending world champs. Mavs have not gotten to the NBA Finals ever (and this is not Dirk's first year playing for the Mavs).

[MannyIsGod]

What I don't understand, is what the hell Mavs fans are trying to complain about as far as Finley doing something illegal during the play. Pile Drive?

Say what?

[????????]

Hmm, interesting. I wonder who you think are the 10% who aren't?
Tim D, Elton Brand, Shane Battier... basically people who didnt go to college just to train for the NBA. People with some resemblense of intelligence. And... No Nazi's allowed.

[greywheel]

Dallas ESPN Radio kept repeating that Terry did not deserve a suspension because Reggie Evans was not suspended for grabbing Chris Kaman's nuts during the Clipper-Nugget series.

[ShoogarBear]

Cuban is worried because if touching an NBA players nuts once will get you a suspension, he's headed for the death penalty.

[shelshor]

Heard audio of Mark Cuban on Ticket 760 and he says something needs to be done to Finley as well, because he started it and powerdrove Terry 1st.

Cuban also said just because Terry's hand was closed, doesn't mean it was a punch.

:lmao OMFG :lmao
And these Mavs fans just can't understand why we don't respect them or Cuban?

[KingsFanWithoutName]

Now if/when the Spurs win game 6, this place will go bonkers with Mavs trolls saying 'the fix is in' Haven't you Spurs fans said this enough already???????????????

[IceColdBrewski]

What I don't understand, is what the hell Mavs fans are trying to complain about as far as Finley doing something illegal during the play. Pile Drive?

They're just Cuban lapdogs who are piggybacking everything Cuban said in his litte bitch session on the radio.

ok let me settle this. BOTH SUCK!. hey arent you guys gonna give me some love. 1,000 posts baby. damn i love this forum.

[gingko]

Here comes the city bashing. Always a sign of a loser :tu

No city bashing from me (podunk was tongue in cheek, sorry), I love San Antonio and went on vacation there not too long ago. Sorry it came out like that.

My main point is that in cities with one team in town (Green Bay, Utah, Sacramento, etc) the media is often more limited due to there being less outlets and is more cheerleader than in other cities. In fact, I was listening to KTKR the other day and there topic was the best way to hurt Dirk more. It was weird, and not a topic you would hear on one of the Dallas radio stations. Its just a different feel.

[ShoogarBear]

Tim D, Elton Brand, Shane Battier... basically people who didnt go to college just to train for the NBA. People with some resemblense of intelligence. And... No Nazi's allowed.

Uh, okay. But your original post was still way offensive.

And you just seriously owned yourself in this one.

[Buddy Holly]

Dallas ESPN Radio kept repeating that Terry did not deserve a suspension because Reggie Evans was not suspended for grabbing Chris Kaman's nuts during the Clipper-Nugget series.

Dude, what the hell? I'm listening to this radio show.

Oh man, I'm so happy for the way our organization is run. I think I understand so much more why Mav's fans are all bastards who think they're owed something. Sweet.

[ducks]

a punch is what got his suspened not where it landed

espn is full of shit

[Josh810]

Lol... wow... lovely Spurs fans. Lovely.
I wasn't aware that numerous Spurs fans posted that. I recall it being one douchebag. Seriously, do Mavs fans even read or think before posting?

[Crookshanks]

Thank You. Nice Tits.

I feel a :ban: coming real quick!!
