[Dirk Nowitzki]

It is nearing gametime Mavs fans! Our Champions go on the road as they will own the Warriors once again this season in that shithole of a stadium! Comon get behind your 2008 NBA Champion Dallas Mavericks and say it loud and with pride...LETS GO MAVS! LETS GO MAVS! LETS GO MAVS! :clap :clap :clap :elephant :elephant :elephant :downspin: :downspin: :downspin:

[clambake]

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Mavs loss = Kevin Love.

Will there be a church service or just a graveside?

[The Nba Is Rigged]

This might get embarrassing

[Findog]

Will there be a church service or just a graveside?


Memorial Service will be held at your local KFC.

[Findog]

Hmm, watch the Mavs get shitstomped by the Warriors again?

I'd rather watch a bunch of sick puppies thrown into a basket and slowly die.

[mavs>spurs2]

Memorial Service will be held at your local KFC.

Very rarely will a Spurstalk post actually make me laugh out loud..:lol ding ding we have a winner!!

SpursTalk is awesome. :lol

[Dirk Nowitzki]

OK SERIOUSLY...Unlike 99% of the Mav fans here, I am still watching every game rooting my heart out for this team. If you seriously have already quit on this year, then go jump on another teams wagon and see you next October. These funeral jokes are getting old quickly. This is for a thread on fans who still actually give a shit about this fucking team and still keep their faith. Go post in your offseason/KFC threads if you want to go make jokes. :pctoss :pctoss :pctoss

[Shank]

God, I hate the fucking Warriors. And now this week we have Nelly doing his reverse psychology bullshit by saying the Mavs will make the playoffs with little problem and that the team is far better with Kidd, even without Dirk.

After last night, I think GS is going to want to come out to stomp a mudhole in Dallas' asses early. Fuck me, they shoot a ridiculous number of 3s.

[makedamnsure]

Cannot wait for this one.

[san antonio spurs]

mavs fans quiting on their team is quite pathetic. Especially from quality ones.

[boutons_]

Mavs in strong start, but their recent history in that arena has been horrible.

[Dirk Nowitzki]

:clap :clap :clap Eat shit warriors. Mavs back on track as they are running away with this game. Mark this down as a win for the Mavs! :elephant :elephant :elephant THE CHAMPS ARE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :downspin: :downspin: :downspin: :elephant :elephant :clap :clap :devil :devil

[Findog]

mavs fans quiting on their team is quite pathetic. Especially from quality ones.

Who said I'm quitting? I'm watching the game, hoping for the best and fearing the worst. Your team has four rings, our team continually disappoints and breaks hearts. Let's see the Spurs do the same thing to their fans every year and see how optimistic you are.

[himat]

Mav fans are starting to annoy me. Some of them always do, but even the good ones are being stupid too now.

I like how you guys completely give up.

What he said. Spur fans have been blessed for the past 20 years. Don't fucking preach to me about giving up, I was there when this team won 20 fucking games. It's a lot more heart breaking when you're the best team in basketball for 2 years and continually get embarassed in the worst way imaginable.

[san antonio spurs]

What I don't like is mavs fans crying all over the place. Realism is one thing, pessimism is another.

[Findog]

Mav fans are starting to annoy me. Some of them always do, but even the good ones are being stupid too now.

What is "giving up"? Do we affect the outcome of games? Why is it such a crime to be pessimistic about your team's chances to do anything when they've played like ass for 6 weeks and counting? I was there for 11 wins and Quinn Buckner. I don't need anybody to lecture me about what constitutes being a good fan. Do you "believe" great things are in store for this team this year? If the answer is no, why is it such a crime for me to be pessimistic as well?

Nothing is more irritating than being told that I'm somehow letting my team down because I don't "believe." I had more faith and "believed" more in the 36-win team that featured the Three J's. I had more faith and "believed" more in the Big Three of Nash, Dirk and Finley that upset Utah in the playoffs. This team is more talented but has persistently underachieved, so no, I don't "believe" in them.

[mavs>spurs2]

Better than I thought we'd come out. Only down 1 after the first. I figured at this point we'd be down 50 and the Warriors would be resorting to Rafer Alston tactics while the crowd just laughed at them.

Great things are not in store for anyone. You have to go out and earn it. If the Mavs make the playoffs I think they can still make noise.

There is nothing wrong expressing your dissapointment with your team. My problem is that you feel the need to cry about the mavs' fate as of late.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

:lol, the KFC's Colonel's Corner with NBA news!

[mavs>spurs2]

Where have I seen this unmotivated, half ass ball before?

[mavs>spurs2]

I have a feeling Jeff will be making a special guest appearance if the Mavs lose this game

[mavs>spurs2]

Avery is a dumbass. Why get the tech and kill our momentum.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Is it just me or does Avery get techs for almost anything these days? In fairness to AJ, Mike D'antoni should be called for 3 times as many techs as AH if this is how refs are gonna call them

[san antonio spurs]

Avery is a dumbass. Why get the tech and kill our momentum.
he might be leading the league right? Every game I watch he gets a tech.

[mavs>spurs2]

he might be leading the league right? Every game I watch he gets a tech.

Seems like he's going for Sheed's record :lol

[Amuseddaysleeper]

you guys (mav fans) are getting hosed by the refs

[mavs>spurs2]

Mavs can't fucking rebound am I the only one who sees this?

[himat]

Kidd needs to take more shots. It does not necessarily have to be jumpers, but he needs to try to create for himself sometimes. Teams just keep on leaving him open.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Warriors up 8 at the half after spotting the Mavs a dozen to start the game. Not looking good for Dallas.

[boutons_]

Warriors only +8 at the half.

Not insurmountable, but Warriors have so much more firepower vs wounded Mavs.

Mavs shooting a much better FG%, but Warriors taking more shots and winning RBs and TOs.

[mavs>spurs2]

Mavs never had the chance from the start. Something was wrong with this team before Dirks injury, we probably won't beat them even with Dirk Wednesday.

[mavs>spurs2]

Anyone else alive in here?

[TampaDude]

Damn...Baron Davis has nads the size of bowling balls...

[mavs>spurs2]

Jesus how many offensive rebounds is that for baron?

[icem]

Kidd needs to take more shots. It does not necessarily have to be jumpers, but he needs to try to create for himself sometimes. Teams just keep on leaving him open.

in other words, he needs to play more like devin harris........

[mavs>spurs2]

in other words, he needs to play more like devin harris........

lololololololololololol

[TampaDude]

Wow...you get out of breath just watching the Warriors...they sure can score points in a hurry...

[Dirk Nowitzki]

Mavs fucking around! Comon guys play like the champions you are. I really wonder when they will decide to finally show up. This big run is fucking coming but if they just keep dicking around like this, we will have to keep waiting and waiting.

[peskypesky]

Go Warriors go!!!!!!!!!!!

[JK2]

Fuck You!

[SAtown]

Biedrins has one of the strangest FT shots I've ever seen...but, hey...they go in!

They don't go in all the time. He's a career 50% FT shooter.

[Dirk Nowitzki]

Bullshit ticky tack foul on SJax...

Hey slut...pick a teams cock to suck on and stay there. Dont be doing this flip flopping shit mmmkay? Good! :clap :clap :clap

[TampaDude]

They don't go in all the time. He's a career 50% FT shooter.

Not tonight...tonight he's a 100% FT shooter so far... :lol

[Warlord23]

God Damn It Im Fired Up With Confidence And Positive Emotion! God I Love Being A Mavs Fan! I Fucking Love It!!!!!!

Who are you trying to convince? Us or yourself?

[SAtown]

Hey slut...pick a teams cock to suck on and stay there. Dont be doing this flip flopping shit mmmkay? Good! :clap :clap :clap

If rooting for a team is equivalent to sucking a cock then you're the biggest cocksucker on ST.

[Findog]

Mavs fought well and played hard tonight. Same old result.

[mavsfan1000]

14th pick here we come.

[Dirk Nowitzki]

Who are you trying to convince? Us or yourself?

Go back to playing world of warcraft. I dont give a shit who I convince. I love my fucking team win or lose. mmmkay? Kewl now onto your online gaming! :clap :clap :clap

[peskypesky]

Warriors smack the Mavs again! I love it.

[SAtown]

Not tonight...tonight he's a 100% FT shooter so far... :lol


Biedrins is CLUTCH

:smokin

[Findog]

It's probably going to be a blessing in disguise long-term to miss the playoffs and keep our pick.

[Dirk Nowitzki]

If rooting for a team is equivalent to sucking a cock then you're the biggest cocksucker on ST.

Why dont you get a nice shiny spur turn that son of a bitch sideways and stick straight up your candy ass! Now kindly know your role and SHUT YOUR MOUTH! :clap :clap :clap

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Mavs fought well and played hard tonight. Same old result.
Jason Kidd is blah as a leader. He does all the skilled work of an elite player, but hardly delivers.

[mavsfan1000]

Warriors smack the Mavs again! I love it.
I love it to. Time to get a pick in the draft. Next year we will be :hungry:

[efrem1]

That's ballgame.

[peskypesky]

now if only the Wizards can beat the Lakers, it'll be a perfect b-ball day.

[Findog]

Jason Kidd is blah as a leader.

We were shorthanded. Anyways, they're still playing hard, all you can ask for since they're not better than the teams they're losing to.

[Dirk Nowitzki]

EH not a win tonight but they didnt lie down like everyone thought they would. Once Dirk comes back this team is going on a tear. Im PUMPED! :clap :clap :clap

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

now if only the Wizards can beat the Lakers, it'll be a perfect b-ball day.
not sure the Lakers will drop this one, but there's still time. :lol

[TampaDude]

Ballgame...

[TampaDude]

Mavs got this...problem...called losing...

[Findog]

I wonder if we'll beat a winning team before the season ends. Probably not, unless NOLA has nothing to play for in the season finale.

[peskypesky]

Mavs got this...problem...called losing...


hehe

[TampaDude]

not sure the Lakers will drop this one, but there's still time. :lol

Holy shit, the Lakers are not gonna lose to the Wizards...at home...are they??? :dizzy

[Dirk Nowitzki]

I wonder if we'll beat a winning team before the season ends. Probably not, unless NOLA has nothing to play for in the season finale.

Ummm unless lottery bound teams are on the Mavs path to the 2008 championship, they will achieve that goal and more in the upcoming weeks. Now findog sit back and enjoy a histroical run to the 2008 title. Wed night with Dirk coming back...the big run begins. Man this shits gonna be fun!

[peskypesky]

Holy shit, the Lakers are not gonna lose to the Wizards...at home...are they??? :dizzy
doesn't look like it. lakers have pulled ahead.

[Findog]

Erick Dampier: + 10 +/- in his 12 minutes of burn tonight. Wasn't in foul trouble either. Also played big minutes in one of the two wins in the playoff series, and played well in the win at home against the Dubs earlier this year. Why didn't he play more? When will Avery get it through his thick fucking skull that Dampier is an asset against smallball teams like Golden State?

[JK2]

Warriors smack the Mavs again! I love it.
the Mavs played without their best player and their second best player of late. the warriors were expected to win and they did. nothing to get excited about you fucking retard. the Mavs would have beaten them 4 times this season if they weren't shorthanded.
side note: Avery was outcoached again. He benched Damp without a foul and got outrebounded big time.

[Findog]

I don't want Dirk rushing back before he's ready. If he can return Wednesday against GS, we have a shot to make the playoffs. But if he misses any more time, we're done.

[Warlord23]

Ummm unless lottery bound teams are on the Mavs path to the 2008 championship, they will achieve that goal and more in the upcoming weeks. Now findog sit back and enjoy a histroical run to the 2008 title. Wed night with Dirk coming back...the big run begins. Man this shits gonna be fun!

So in your alternate universe, did the Mavs repeat in 2007 after their 2006 Finals triumph?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I'm sure the Mavs will compete on some level before the playoffs, and I'm sure they'll make the playoffs.

Avery's a fucking dumbass. Everyone knows it and after this season he will be gone.

[Dirk Nowitzki]

So in your alternate universe, did the Mavs repeat in 2007 after their 2006 Finals triumph?

Again kiddo go play your world of warcraft game. Have a nice day.

[Findog]

I'm sure the Mavs will compete on some level before the playoffs, and I'm sure they'll make the playoffs.

It all depends on Dirk's return. We still have @ LAL, PHX, PORT and vs. GS, UTA and NOLA. We haven't beaten a winning team since the Kidd trade. This team just isn't that good w/o Dirk. If he can play against GS on Wednesday, I'm confident we take that game since they'll be in SA the night before. And he gives us a fighting chance against the Lakers and Suns. But w/o him, we'll continue to lose to good teams.

[Dirk Nowitzki]

I respect your enthusiasm. But stop smoking crack!!


I dont smoke crack. Hell I dont even smoke. Im on a natural high of fucking confidence. Worry about your own team and I will worry about mine. Have a nice day.

[peskypesky]

Wizards only down 3!

[Findog]

Wiz tied it.

[TampaDude]

doesn't look like it. lakers have pulled ahead.

You were saying??? :lol

[mavsfan1000]

Dirk equals MVP?

[The Nba Is Rigged]

I swear that if Avery isn't fired next season I'm drastically cutting the time I spend watching this team. How many more fucking games must we lose because Avery decides to go small? Fuck Avery Johnson. A coach is supposed to do everything to put his players in a position to succeed, but not Avery Johnson though. His players must try to overcome his coaching in every single game.

It is almost anonymous that Avery sucks as a coach. I don't many left that actually think he is a good coach. My first suspicions were when Van Horn was playing at Center and Daniels totally getting benched.

[Findog]

Firing Avery doesn't begin to solve this team's problems. They've underachieved this year, and that falls on the coach to some degree, but I don't see his dismissal as the magical elixir for fixing this team.

[dav4463]

It's always a good day when the Spurs win and the mavericks lose!!!

[The Nba Is Rigged]

It is almost anonymous that Avery sucks as a coach. I don't many left that actually think he is a good coach. My first suspicions were when Van Horn was playing at Center and Daniels totally getting benched.

In the freakin 06 finals, the Cheats had no answer for Daniels any time he came in. All the fans could see that and Pat Riley probably saw it too but luckily for Riley we have a moron as a coach. Fuck Avery Johnson, god I hate that man.

[ajh18]

Maybe it's just me, but I don't really want to have the top spot in the West, if Dallas then has the chance to do to us the same thing that we gave their fans so much grief for during last year's playoffs...

[TampaDude]

111-111...Lakers have the ball with 10.1 seconds left in the game...Fisher for the win...NOPE...and we go to OT...

[Dirk Nowitzki]

Mavs are still a matchup problem for the Spurs yet people keep on forgetting that. I want nothing more than to face the Spurs in round 1. There is more than a great chance for the Mavs to win that series. The beautiful part is there is more than a realistic chance of that happening! :hungry: :hungry: :hungry:

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I'm sure the Lakers will ice the game in OT.

[TampaDude]

Mavs have no shot at the title without Dirk...no shot at all...the Spurs would take them in 5...

[Supreme_Being]

Nice win by the Warriors.

[Dirk Nowitzki]

Mavs have no shot at the title without Dirk...no shot at all...the Spurs would take them in 5...

Agreed 100% just like the spurs have no chance in hell at the title without Duncan. A healthy Mavs team with Dirk in the lineup is a guaranteed HARD FOUGHT 6 game series at the very least.

[The Nba Is Rigged]

Firing Avery doesn't begin to solve this team's problems. They've underachieved this year, and that falls on the coach to some degree, but I don't see his dismissal as the magical elixir for fixing this team.

Its a good start imo, look at the people we've lost under avery: Marquis Daniels, Darrell Armstrong, Devin Harris, Keith Van Horn, Nick Fazekez, Adrian Griffin, Desegana Diop.

Look at the people who Avery brought to dallas: GREG FUCKIN BUCKNER, DEVEAN "BIRD RIGHTS" GEORGE, ANTHONY "SPARE" JOHNSON, JUWAN HOWARD, EDDIE JONES, JJ BAREA, JAMAAL MAGLOIRE.

Avery must be fired, there is no way a coach should get rid of key role players and bring in useless veterans and not be punished. He must be fired. He is not the only problem but he is the main problem.

[TampaDude]

Agreed 100% just like the spurs have no chance in hell at the title without Duncan. A healthy Mavs team with Dirk in the lineup is a guaranteed HARD FOUGHT 6 game series at the very least.

Yup...Agreed... :toast

[ludda]

GS will be out the first round this year unless they somehow get Houston. They won't have another cinderella series, even though I would love for them to defeat the Suns, but realistically I don't see that happening.
Unless Dirk gets back soon, Mavs will be out of the playoffs. Even if Dirk gets back and he's not 100%, I can see the Nuggets and Warriors taking the last two spots.

And go Wizards!

[TampaDude]

Fisher with a huge 3!!!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Fisher with a huge 3!!!
it was a two :lol

[TampaDude]

Fisher with another huge 3...wait...nope...his foot was on the line...120-119 Wizards...

[TampaDude]

it was a two :lol

The first one was a 3.

[TampaDude]

120-119 Wizards...1:02 left...

[TampaDude]

Wizards throw the ball away...Lakers got this now...

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Looks like the Lakers will win it. Wizards just couldn't execute like a good veteran team would.

[TampaDude]

Kobe with 2 FTs...makes them both...121-120 Lakers...37.8 seconds left...

[TampaDude]

Looks like the Lakers will win it. Wizards just couldn't execute like a good veteran team would.

Yup...a bucket there instead of a turnover and the Wizards probably hang on to win, but it's over now...Lakers will win for sure...

[TampaDude]

Stupid mistake by the Wizards there...Lakers got this...

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

dumb Wizards.. ruined what would have been a perfect Spurs fan NBA day.

[TampaDude]

Ballgame...Lakers ahead 124-120...10.2 seconds left...

[TampaDude]

dumb Wizards.. ruined what would have been a perfect Spurs fan NBA day.

Only if the Hornets had lost...

Ummm, no. Mavs are no longer a match-up problem after that trade.

[batboy]

And a Luke Walton dunk to cap it...

oh, the humanity!

[TampaDude]

Lakers win #50...126-120 over the Wizards...

[The Nba Is Rigged]

Nice wizards-Lakers game

[TampaDude]

Fucking Lakers are gonna escape with a win

That's okay...the Lakers barely escaped in OT against the Wizards, and the Spurs curb stomped the Rockets...we all know who is the better team. :hat

[peskypesky]

Stupid Wizards. Giving up the rebound after Kobe's missed ft was inexcusable.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

pretty funny game despite the Laker win.

Kobe + Scrubs + Fisher equal non-playoff threat.

Hopefully they'll be competitive when they get their key guys back for the April games.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Stupid Wizards. Giving up the rebound after Kobe's missed ft was inexcusable.
That was retarded, wasted effort, but can't expect much, because they don't seem that bright or experienced.


They were celebrating before they even won the game. :lol

This season has been giving NBA fans a lot of win-win situations. :lol

Do the Spurs actually want to face PHX in the 1st round? I'd imagine that'd be the worst draw you could ask for???

Spurs will probably be #1 or #2 in the West come playoff time...they will probably get the Mavs or the Nuggets in the first round...either one should fall to the Spurs.

I think NO and PHO are teams I wouldn't want for the Spurs in the first round. I want them to have a good warm up, before being thrown into a crazy battle.

I don't want to face Phoenix in the first round. They're looking too good lately. I can't believe it, but they seem to have found a way to win without Marion and with Shaq.

I want Houston in the first round. I wouldn't mind the warriors either. (rather face GSW than DEN, though I think SA takes both)


I don't know what to make of phoenix, they are playing well to their credit, but I guess if there were two teams I wouldn't mind avoiding it would be NO and PHX.

I'd actually rather face LAL than Phoenix or NO

God playing Dallas or Denver in the first round would be a nightmare...

[Dirk Nowitzki]

Ummm, no. Mavs are no longer a match-up problem after that trade.

#41 on the Mavs disagrees with you there. :)

GS will be out the first round this year unless they somehow get Houston. They won't have another cinderella series, even though I would love for them to defeat the Suns, but realistically I don't see that happening.
Unless Dirk gets back soon, Mavs will be out of the playoffs. Even if Dirk gets back and he's not 100%, I can see the Nuggets and Warriors taking the last two spots.

And go Wizards!
Please...

Houston can take GS in a playoff series.

I went to the Mavs game last night and the people around me started yelling " Just like last year!" Couldn't stop laughing :lol
