Things Mavs Fans liked about the Game

[jack0fspeed]

1. No points for the Spurs in final 4:17. With or without Duncan ... impressive.

2. Still no answer for Devin Harris

3. Elson "Dirk stopper"? No ... Elson "Dirk MVP-maker".

4. Mavs put the final nail in the coffin for the Spurs HCA hopes.

5. Refs finally cracking down on that lame palms-up stuff.

6. Mavs can finally out-flop the Spurs.

[Texas_Ranger]

And I will like when we will defeat you in the playoffs.

[picnroll]

7. Refs picking up right where they left off in last year's Western conference semis.

[DampierAmGod]

8. Spurs fans picking up right where they left off in last years Western Conference semi's.

9. Avery out coached Pop again.

10. Season series won 3-1, only loss coming in the first game of the season when we started 0-4 and were playing like crap. 2-0 in San Antonio

[SpursWoman]

So now all of the sudden that was supposed to be a meaningful game? :lol

[Testing]

Cuz they won. If Mavs had lost despite their players getting extended minutes, this would have been a meaningless game. :rolleyes

[Testing]

It just shows how classless and stupid the entire Mavs organization is...an extension of their fan base and owner.

The Spurs had an excuse to be fired up...they were still fighting for the #2 seed. Mavs meanwhile, already have HCA locked up, they know they're on a roll, and their players still ended up playing over 35 minutes in this game? Very dumb of Avery and the staff...especially since they could have gotten injured. And after Duncan goes out, you still want some kind of "moral victory" and bring back Dirk and Co to seal the deal? Why?

[DampierAmGod]

Cuz they won. If Mavs had lost despite their players getting extended minutes, this would have been a meaningless game. :rolleyes

The game was meaningless in terms of standings but only an idiot would say the game was totally meaningless. Hence the reason Avery played starters like a normal game (extended minutes? no) and hence the reason the Spurs were playing hard. Tony Parker said "it's good practice" at halftime, I doubt either team practices that hard.

And even if it was meaningless to the players, it wouldn't be meaningless to a fan of either team. It's the biggest rivalry in the NBA, of course it means something.

This just in, playing games to win is "classless". Maybe that is why LA is stumbling into the playoffs, Jackson is just too classy :lol

[LilMissSPURfect]

winning meaning less game

[Testing]

It was totally meaningless for the Mavericks. Give me one good reason why the Mavs starters should have played more than 25 minutes in this game? Because it's a rivalry? Well, winning against your rival is more meaningful in the playoffs, not the regular season. Why didn't Avery play his starters so many minutes the 3 games before this? Why would you risk an injury to any of your star players in a game like yesterday? The fans got what they wanted...the Mavs played their starters 25 minutes they would have still gotten a good "show."

The game wasn't totally meaningless, it was an important game for both teams. Not only because of the rivalry, but also because Dallas was something like 1-3 or 1-4 against playoff teams in the last month or something like that. It was likely a preview of the WCF, a great game for both coaches to coach like a playoff game. During the broadcast multiple times you heard reported in the huddles talk about how both coaches were talking about playoff gameplans.

I think Dirk and Howard are the only two who played regular minutes, Terry played less than normal and obviously with Terry out Harris played more, and with Damp out Diop played more. The starters didn't play as many minutes in the other games because it wasn't Spurs vs Mavs. And, if you look over the box scores of the games, you see Avery plays the starters more against teams still fighting for something, which isn't classless, it's how all coaches should do it. **** this rest all your starters and give the other team the game crap. They still have plenty of time to rest.

[Findog]

Very dumb of Avery and the staff...especially since they could have gotten injured. And after Duncan goes out, you still want some kind of "moral victory" and bring back Dirk and Co to seal the deal? Why?

No, quite dumb of Pop, his staff and players to fall for Avery's trap. AJ said he was gonna rest his stars and play the scrubs. Instead he used this game as a dress rehearsal for the playoffs and a chance to examine the Spurs when they play full-tilt. What did Pop so generously provide to Avery in the way of information? Well, your transition D still sucks, and you stil fall prey to the same mental lapses and mistakes that doomed you last May. You can watch game film all you want, but there's nothing like a 3-D live action game film right in front of you. Avery was scouting yesterday, and you guys fell for it, hook, line and sinker.

[Findog]

It was totally meaningless for the Mavericks. Give me one good reason why the Mavs starters should have played more than 25 minutes in this game?

One word: SCOUTING. Avery plays chess, Pop plays checkers.

Mavs fans have got to be the biggest bandwagoners in the history of the game. They talk smack like they know thie history of the game and they have to be the most biased fans ever. It's like they refuse to see the other side and appreciate and concede good basketball by other teams.

Yeah, you're right, I didn't start watching basketball and following the Mavs until they began winning. I have no idea who Roy Tarpley, Mark Aguirre, James Donaldson and Sam Perkins are. I never bothered to watch or follow this team during the dark days of Mike Iuzzolino, Terry Davis and Greg Dreiling. Clearly just a bandwagon homer that doesn't know a pick and roll from a hole in the ground.

[Findog]

Speaking of mental lapses and mistakes that doomed my team last May....how's that Mavs 2006 championship oh wait...............

It's impossible to beat a team when a two-guard shoots 25 FTs a game. Spurs or anybody else couldn't have beaten Miami under those conditions. It's funny how Spurs fans bitch about the officiating in our series while ignoring that Duncan was camped out at the line too.

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/060620

I agree with Simmons...if the refs call every bump on Shaq and whistle the opposing teams everytime Wade goes to the basket, nobody is going to beat them, not Dallas, not Detroit, nor San Antonio or Phoenix.

If it's fair to question our intestinal fortitude, then it's fair to question the insane star treatment Wade got. If you want to bring up the 2006 NBA Finals, I didn't, you did, but if you want to bring it up, I'll refrain from whining about the refs if you can refrain from calling us chokers. Nobody was going to beat the Heat under those ground rules. NOBODY.

Best thing? The look on Duncan's face... :lol

Yup that was the best thing to happen to the Mavs in the whole game. They better hope Tim Duncan does not learn how to control his laughter in the playoffs and has to be thrown out of the games often.

[DarrinS]

3. Elson "Dirk stopper"? No ... Elson "Dirk MVP-maker".




If you look at the gameflow on http://www.popcornmachine.net/cgi-bin/gameflow.cgi?date=20070415&game=SASDAL, you'll see that when Dirk was on the floor, the Mavs were

-6 in the first quarter
+1 in the 2nd
+1 in the 3rd
+7 in the fourth (interesting)

For a grand total of +3 when he was playing.


The REAL key for the Mavs win, IMO, was the play of Harris and Stack.

[Shank]

SpurFan has officially usurped MavFan as the whiniest, most sore loser anywhere. The excuses are ridiculous. You act as though every team in the league is supposed to roll over for your dumb asses. Suck up the loss and the events within and move on already. You're losing all face and all respect with this one game.

[jack0fspeed]

Regardless of what the numbers say, the MVP voters will have that image of Elson (the supposed Dirk-stopper) getting faked out of his drawers and Dirk knocking down that jumpshot. Or maybe they'll be thinking about Mark Jackson saying .. "Elson isn't even in the picture!"

He probably already had the MVP won, but now there is no doubt.

Why cause we're mad cuase our best player got thrown out for no good reason? Because he was laughing? We can't complain about that? That was the stupidest thing I have ever seen in an NBA game done by an official.

Back-to-back Nash and now Dirk. This is a disturbing trend of MVP's that don't have any defensive game.

[Ginofan]

I'd say if Dirk was the one thrown out, this game would be so meaningless and there would just as much talk going on about Crawford as there is now.

But if it makes you guys feel better come and gloat now...go ahead, you won't have much opportunity to do so in the playoffs.

You see what you want to see. You honestly think he was just laughing? It's clear that he and the cast of Cocoon next to him were openly mocking the officials. Is that what Pop teaches? It's hard to believe that the situation quickly escalated from just laughing to 2nd tech to Duncan saying 'f--- you- and 'piece of shit' toward Crawford as he was walking off.

I personally wouldn't bitch about it...I don't complain about officiating. I didn't think Spurs fans did either...

It's more of a false reassurance. They still hold on to last year's semis. It's all they have.

This current SA team, without Duncan ejected, are unstoppable and showed it the majority of the game, down to the final minute when Dallas pulled away.

To use the same type of excuse you used, two of the three losses came when SA wasn't playing well, and the last one came when Duncan got ejected. 1-0 in Dallas with everyone in the game. :ihit

All you ever do is spin, spin, spin. Your team is not unstoppable. It's not like the Spurs were running away with yesterday's game with Duncan in there. The biggest lead was 7-8 points. And your current SA team, as unstoppable as you might think they are, still fell to the Celtics and the Bucks with Duncan in the lineup. Yes, it's old news to bring those games up, but it proves that they're not "unstoppable".

Who knows what the outcome of the game would've been if we still had Duncan, we'll never know now because someone wanted camera time. But with holding the lead for most of the second half...I'd say the Spurs had a pretty good chance at a win.

I don't think it's your complaining about the officiating that is causing the arguement. I think it's the shit talk about the mavs that is mixed in with the complaining. You act like the mavs have some control over Crawfordand what happened in the game. If your going to bitch about the officiating, bitch about JUST the officiating instead of "I can't believe that damn Joey Crawford... bitchass mavericks".

We learned that your transition D isn't any better than it was last May, you still don't have an answer for Dirk, should Duncan at any point get into foul trouble and have to sit for an extended period of time, your team is hopeless, you're turnover prone, Barry doesn't deserve to get burn, etc. Does that help?

Duncan threw down a 32 and 13 last May. Wasn't good enough.

spurs had 13 tos, mavs 12. granted, several of those were late. even with duncan out, the mavs weren't exactly lighting up the joint. but take all of that from the game if you want. another in your endless series of questionable, at best, takes.

I'm a Mavs fan, but that's a fucking joke. Crawford's a fucking joke.


Wow, Crawford really sucks.


I don't get why the NBA thinks refs like Joey Crawford are good?


Damn refs are sucking today. Ejecting Duncan was a little uncalled for. He was showing his ass a little... but throwing him out of the game? come on....


Joey Crawford is a fuckin' madman out there. Hopefully the league does something about his power trip. Fuck it this game isn't even worth watching anymore.


At least we can (hopefully) all agree that Joey Crawford is an idiot and a disgrace of an NBA official. Duncan's ejection was ridiculous.

There are more where these came from.

A case of perception becoming a false reality.

1.The mavs won with Playing Dirk No-wits-ki on Oberto.


2.and Avery plays "Scattegories" while Pop plays "Scene it"

3. Duncan is a whiny 3 finals MVP Bitch, Defensive Player of the Year, Fundamentals tuned, Back to the Basket playing Forward, who anchors the defense, while Dirk is the Whiny PF who shoots over Tony Parker for his He-Man heroics in the Fourth.

Scoreboard. Dirk No-wits-ki.

4. Avery Johnson bought New York Avenue, and has a "get out Jail" card. Pop plays tic tacs.


5. Your Transition D is horrid when Oberto is the Anchor= Mavs Sweep.


6. Avery Plays Strip Poker with Mark Cuban while getting Donkey Punched By Dwayne Wade and the Finals Refs.

Pop plays checkers.

[Kermit]

I don't think it's your complaining about the officiating that is causing the arguement. I think it's the shit talk about the mavs that is mixed in with the complaining. You act like the mavs have some control over Crawfordand what happened in the game. If your going to bitch about the officiating, bitch about JUST the officiating instead of "I can't believe that damn Joey Crawford... bitchass mavericks".
i've acted as if mavs fans have some control over joey crawford? you read this entire thread and that's your impression? our school system is in desperate need of repair if that's the kind of comprehension you're exhibiting.

[mardigan]

Whatever, none of this shit talk bothers me. If the situations were flipped and Dirk had been toss we would never here the end of it from Mav fans. Just gives yall more false confidence going into the playoffs

Very strange post... but I will admit it is alot more insightful than some other posts around here.

[DubMcDub]

Yup that was the best thing to happen to the Mavs in the whole game. They better hope Tim Duncan does not learn how to control his laughter in the playoffs and has to be thrown out of the games often.

You mean like last year, when he played 40+ minutes all 7 games and the Spurs still couldn't win?

Good point. Mavs better "hope" that Duncan doesn't play. We have no chance if he does. :rolleyes

[DubMcDub]

To use the same type of excuse you used, two of the three losses came when SA wasn't playing well, and the last one came when Duncan got ejected. 1-0 in Dallas with everyone in the game. :ihit

I just had to stop and applaud this for a moment. It's not often you see someone so brilliantly discount every single game in a series that their team lost. Which, by the way, is completely different than what the person you responded to did when he pointed out that the Mavs only loss to the Spurs this year was in the first game of the season.

"Hey, I don't like the fact that my team lost a season series 3-1 to a superior team, so I think I'll come up with some reasons why those 3 losses don't count. That way, we're 1-0!"

If your point is that the Spurs are undefeated this year in games that they didn't lose, then I have to say, that's really quite profound.

Bravo.

When the Spurs win, they're the better team. When they lose, it's not their fault.

Matter settled.

[DubMcDub]

so chessmaster avery learned that the spurs are easier to stop when duncan can't play. since you went ahead and begged the question: if pop plays checkers, avery plays chess, what does riley play?

He plays a nice little game called "shit talking via third party proxy".

No, wait, that's you. What part of Miami are you from?

you act like we had no possible way of beating you last year. The games were so close, that it took a Manu foul up for you to advance. Believe me the mavs have the Spurs attention now, and I don't think Dirk is better than Tim at all. Tim will step up in the playoffs, and Dirk will choke like history has shown.

[ratm1221]

Cuz they won. If Mavs had lost despite their players getting extended minutes, this would have been a meaningless game. :rolleyes
Didn't you see the game thread where Spurs fans were saying the game would only mean anything if the Spurs won? :lol

[Gino20]

I am so ready for the playoffs. It sucks that the Spurs lost yesterday, but I was pleased with the performance. Mav fans can talk all they want about the things they liked about the game. If they were pleased with much of the strategy, I am not impressed with their performance at all. The Spurs should have been blown out while Duncan was out. Instead, the game is tied with less than a minute remaining. I will take that anyday....I see the game from two different perspectives:

1) The Spurs played great without the best PF in the league evident by the score.

2) The Mavs won, but let a team without their best player hang with them.

The Spurs can beat anyone in the league...no doubts here. Go Spurs Go! :elephant

The Spurs lost at home to both Charlotte and Boston. Therefore, were they to meet either of those two teams in the playoffs, the Bobcats and Celtics would sweep the Spurs easily in four games. And when Duncan was ejected, it was not close or competitive at all, as the Mavs were bent over and biting pillows, down by 30 points at the time. And it's not like we had won 3 out of the last 4 against you guys with Duncan playing 40+ minutes in those games.

See, we can play this game too.

Also, you call being held without a FG for seven minutes "playing great"? I hope Duncan doesn't get into foul trouble in any game in a series against us, because you guys are fucked.

Yes I suppose he's going to average even more than the 33 or so PPG he averaged in the WCSF last year?

Please. He was 100% by the playoffs last year. In fact that was the most dominant he'd been in some time.

Whats funny is this exact same thing has been said at least a dozen times already. There is no way of knowing how the game would have turned out if Duncan was in the whole game and we never will. This is pure speculation, but if saying it like it's some kind of fact makes you feel better than go right ahead and say it some more. Both sides played a good "practice" game and it was a pretty close game the entire time Timmy was still in. After that, as I said, is speculation.

Practice game my ass. Maybe they didnt pull out all the stops, but both teams wanted to win. And no, there isnt any way of knowing, but I was damn proud of my boys hanging in after they were dealt a deathblow

Wow thats alot of mins. I watched the game, but they did not seem to play that long. I couldn't agree more with your comment...

[RiverwalkParade]

Duncan being ejected only allowed the Mavs to take the lead with about 1:30 left in the game. Hardly an effort to be proud of. The Mavericks have fallen apart recently and it's not because they are giving their guys a blow. It looks like they lack focus out there. Maybe in June Mavs fans can make a trip to the Riverwalk to see a championship parade.

Crying about how long the Mavs starters played is getting old too. Yeah, both teams played hard, but even as your boy Tony Parker said "Itsa gud prac-teece, Itsa gud prac-ttece".

[Findog]

Tim doesn't have planters fasciitis this season, so you guys are fucked.

So those two games in the River City earlier this year, what was that? And guess what, I play pickup basketball all the time, and I have plantar fasciitis. It hurts like hell, but you can play on it. Now, granted, I'm not playing 40+ minutes a night 80 times a year at NBA speed, but I don't get round the clock medical treatment either. He can't do any better than the 32 and 13 he threw down last year. Wasn't good enough.

[DubMcDub]

I guess its based on personal opinion then...

Of course. And you're certainly entitled to yours. And I'm not even saying you're wrong--by no means do I claim that the Spurs definitively WOULDNT HAVE WON with Duncan.

All I'm saying is that we don't know, and the automatic assumption that the Spurs would have won with him is as arrogant as it is presumptuous.

At least they aren't doing anything crazy like coming up with conspiracy theories....oh wait nm....

Who is crying? I am just pointing out that both teams wanted to win. Anyone that watched the game could have seen that. Poor mav fans, even faced with cold hard facts they find excuses. You really think that if Avery didnt want to win he would have sent Dirk back in off the bench to play the last 9 minutes?

1. Please point out the facts for me. Keep in mind that: fact-a concept whose truth can be proved.

2. Who are the one's making excuses?

Dirk loves to play, for all you know he could have been begging Avery to go back in and Avery may have just said "aww, what the hell, go ahead big boy, go get you some".

Numbers of minutes played are facts. Dirk coming back into a game that they supposedly didnt care about is a fact. You keep saying that the Mavs didnt care about winning is a fact. So faced with all these facts, I have concluded that the Mavs probably did want to win this game pretty bad, or else the scrubs would have played the rest of the way. Did Dirk really ask Avery that? Is that a fact? You seem to be the one that likes to confuse fact with opinion. I guess Avery listens to his MVP players when they beg him to put them back in a meaningless game in the 4the quarter

[Oh, Gee!!]

It just shows how classless and stupid the entire Mavs organization is...an extension of their fan base and owner.

The Spurs had an excuse to be fired up...they were still fighting for the #2 seed. Mavs meanwhile, already have HCA locked up, they know they're on a roll, and their players still ended up playing over 35 minutes in this game? Very dumb of Avery and the staff...especially since they could have gotten injured. And after Duncan goes out, you still want some kind of "moral victory" and bring back Dirk and Co to seal the deal? Why?

you're supposed to win every game you play.

I'll give you this much. You're good at spinning things around and obviously "putting words in my mouth". I never said that they didn't care about winning that game. They HATE the Spurs and wanted kick their ass with or without Duncan. Putting Dirk in there was like hammering the nails in the coffin.

I know you can't wait for the Cowboys season to start up, you bandwagon fan. I live in Dallas, and let's be honest, the Mavericks are merely a distraction to keep you from thinking about the Cowboys during the NFL offseason. I'm sure you were unaware of their 0-4 start until you read about it two months later after Romo fumbled the snap in the playoffs. Nothing pisses me off more than a fan base that is as whiny and pompous as the owner of the team. Remember, Cuban is a fan first and the owner second, and his actions are a direct reflection of other Maverick fans. So, go write a blog about the game yesterday and go suck some Dirk.

I hate to break it to you junior but no team that makes the NBA Finals is "mediocre at best". And if a team that is "mediocre by best" beat the Dallas Mavericks, who beat the San Antonio Spurs, what does that say about the Spurs? Cuban didn't lose anything for the Mavs, the Mavs players lost the series themselves by playing like crap in crunch time. Kind of like the Spurs yesterday.

1. No points for the Spurs in final 4:17. With or without Duncan ... impressive.

2. Still no answer for Devin Harris

3. Elson "Dirk stopper"? No ... Elson "Dirk MVP-maker".

4. Mavs put the final nail in the coffin for the Spurs HCA hopes.

5. Refs finally cracking down on that lame palms-up stuff.

6. Mavs can finally out-flop the Spurs.

Couldn't agree more. But that doesn't change the fact that such posts aren't going to be taken seriously by anyone with half a brain.

Impressed with the win? No, not really. Weren't the Suns impressed when they beat the Mavs with our 2 stars playing on sprained ankles and our starting center in street clothes. I think so. Did the you hear me whinning about it? No, not really.


Hey, no excuses according to Ponky, about injuries. :lol Also, we blew your team out, so not quite the same comparison. :rolleyes

I got one more thing to say to nash homer and I'm done. Mavs would beat the Suns in a 7 game series. They have no consistancy. They win a game against a good team and then they turn around and drop 2 games to some of the worst teams in the league. The Suns have had more surprising losses this year than any other team.

Guess I don't know the definition of a homer because I've been know to take other teams sides. And I know that the playoffs is up for grabs for "anyone". I'm sure Nashboy here thinks the Suns are going to coast.

Notice no arguement as far as anything I said. Does that mean you know I'm right?

Regarding the last line, no I don't the Suns will coast at all. I think we will have a very hard time this year making it to the WCF.

If you want an answer to what you wrote this is it. I think you might just be a little bit over confident about your teams chances if both teams make it that far. I think a fifteen game and seventeen game win streak shows consistency, considering our record is the second best in the league. Also, I don't think we have had more surprising losses this year than any other team. If so, please tell me which ones you consider surprising.

I think you might want to look in the mirror before you say something like that. :spin

This thread is pretty stupid. I'd probably give this an 11 on a scale of 1-10 for stupidity.

Also, you might want to look at post 149 in this thread. I cannot believe I actually defended the Spurs, what was I thinking?? :)
