The Spurs are the more physical and aggressive team. An abundance of foul calls favors Dallas and their jump shooters. Refs usually favor the more aggressive team. If the refs let em play, Dallas is in trouble. Dallas will probably have Griffen start a fight with Ginobili in the first quarter. The hope will be to get Ginobili thrown out and make the refs call the game tight. Its dirty as hell and very much a probable Mav tactic.
probable? not even plausible imo...
This must be some kind of joke?Quote:

Whatever.
Since when did jump shooting start meaning 3 pt shooting? Pts in the paint/total pts would be a better comparison. The lower the number, the more jump shots are taken.Quote:

Dallas fans remind me off those people from that future city where the only thing they know is what the people in charge tell them, while a real world that they do not have a clue about goes on all around.
Granted Dirk is a jumpshooter, Stack is not a very good one, Terry can drive or take the shot. Harris, Howard, Daniels, Dampier, and Armstrong are not jumpshooters.Quote:

Every thing the Mav's are doing has nothing to do with basketball and everything to do with influencing the refs. Avery cries before game six. We need more foul calls. Cuban constantly crying, Harris now trying to play head games about calls. It seems that the Whine industry is alive and well in Dallas. Maybe that should be Cubans next business. Maverick Whines. I means Wines.. No, it should be whines.
dbestpro's posts make me happy.
Love,
Future City Mavs fan.
Only pussies blame the refs. Get off it.
Oh and BTW have you ever played the game? I'd love see how many "set" nba 3's you can make. I don't think I've ever seen anyone with the exception of maybe Brad Miller make a set 3. The power behind a jump shot comes from the legs. I can shoot a free throw with my arms only, but I doubt I could shoot a three with any accuracy at all if I tried to shoot it set.Quote:

Armstrong? You're trying to compare fourth stringers? Barry, Horry and Van Exel and bench set shooters. Bowen is a starting set shooter. 90% of Ginobili's success occurs at driving to the basket. Parker and Duncan scored more points in the paint this year than any other combo.

Really? Show me where Avery or any of the Mavericks put the Game 6 loss SOLELY on the referees.Quote:

You don't even know your own team, much less the game of basketball. You really think the Spurs coaching staff goes against all conventional basketball wisdom and teaches their shooters to reel off 3's with their feet on the ground?Quote:

That's a 12 point favor for the Spurs, if your intellect can handle actually stats.
So, if the Spurs can repeat that tonight, chalk up another win.
The orginal post was about an intelectual probability of Mav dirty play. I apologize if R.I.P. is offended by intellect.

There's no way to handicap this series, because there are too many variables. The Spurs have their home-court edge, perennially one of the best in the league, while Dallas has had the officiating in its favor.
Dude, what are you trying to prove? You're bringing the average intellect of your fellow Spurs fans down by the second.
As I proved, that statement is false.Quote:

So by Mad dog theory of stats the Spurs could play a grade school team, get more foul calls on that team and have the benefit of offciating. The benefit of offciating occurs when bad calls go a particulat teams way. So, stuff that in your pipe and smoke it.
What does that have to do with anything?Quote:

I'm a firm believer that the agressive team gets the calls. If the Spurs take it to the hoop (as Tim, Manu and Tony usually do), they will get more calls than the Mavs, who, as many have pointed out, rely more on jumpshooting.
The point here is throughout the series the officiating has been in the Mav's favor. Calling a foul against the Spurs when a foul occurs is not in the Mav's favor. Calling a foul against a Spur when no one is in sight puts the officiating on the side of the Mav's. The amount of foul calls is irrelevant. The amount of bad foul calls is everything. In that regard game six was actually called pretty fair.

Whatever, I'm out. We'll talk after the game.
I'm just going to let out a big-ass sigh and move on.
I'll leave you with this - the officiating everywhere has been bad, but it's never been in any team's "favor". Three of the league's top officials will be working the game tonight. Think they won't make any questionable calls?
The "feeling' is probably just gas. It happens to the best of us at times.
