Nuggets @ Mavs game 4 *OFFICIAL THREAD AND DISCUSSION*

[BUMP]

Well well here we are fighting off elimination. Many people say we are done, but they what they don't know is that the Mavs are actually BEST when their backs are against the wall! Like a wounded animal we will come out and punch Denver in the mouth. They probably think they can just walk into the AAC and come out with a series clinching victory.

NO!!!

If they close out this series, it wont be on our court!!!! Thats for DAMN sure!

They will have to endure one more excruciating ear popping flight to Denver before the Mavericks are done, and when we win tonight ANYTHING can happen, but we'll just take it one game at a time

[TampaDude]

Steve Javie is reffing the game tonight...the Mavs are toast...

[Ghazi]

Go Mavs.

excruciating ear popping flight to Denver

What makes the flight "exruciating ear popping"?

[DPG21920]

Mavs will get blown by 30 and ride off into the sunset as the NBA's traditional losers.

Laker fans being obsessed with other teams failures because it takes their minds off of their own is sad. It is really pathetic. Getting blown out by the Houston Ro_kets (because they have no C) is even worse. Pathetic.

[Morg1411]

Nuggets by 47.

[Jacob1983]

I hope the Mavs win tonight just so they won't get swept but I'm a realist. It wouldn't surprise if the Nuggets win tonight by 20 to 30 points.

[Trainwreck2100]

i want to see the mavs win tonight just to see if they have the gall to drop confetti.

Please, Mavs, don't let the d-bag Nuggets sweep you.

Thanks.

[nkdlunch]

the nuggets are the most overhyped playoff team since the 2004 Lakers. They will get a beatdown sooner rather than later. Maybe the Mavs can expose them tonight?

[Findog]

I have a feeling tonight is going to be a blowout, but for whom? Will the Mavs lay down and quit? Or will the Nugs be complacent and not match the energy of a team looking to avoid the humiliation of a sweep?

Did this guy get punked by Mav fans? What is his animus?

[crc21209]

If Dallas wins tonight...they're just delaying the inevitable, because Denver will spank that ass by 20+ points if this thing goes back to Denver for a game 5.

[Armando]

Mavs win then get eliminated in Denver.

Have you ever been on a plane before? It pops the out of your ears.

[Warlord23]

I think Dallas will start out strong in the first half, but will end up folding when the Nuggets start running all over them.

Nuggs by 15...money on em...

Its funny to me that Mavs fans think is some nefarious plot by Stern to eliminate them. Really? The Mavs and Mark Cuban are a big market team and Cuban is more known then some players even. Dallas is more marketable then Denver. I doubt Stern has sweet dreams about Birdman Anderson flying around in the Finals. Why would Stern want a team in the Finals with a vagabond(Although a great player)guard and the black sheep of the 03 draft? The Nuggets are just the better team and I think they can give the Lakers a run for thier money.

I dunno why people act like Denver is indisputably better than Dallas.

Of the 12 quarters played 10 have been draws basically, only the 2 4th quarter self inflicted implosions were a case of Dallas getting outclassed.

I dunno why people just disregard the fact that the Mavs are 1-15 in the playoffs when Dan Crawford is officiating, and he officiated game 1. Only win when Dirk drops 50, so basically the Mavs are 0-15 v him unless Dirk goes for double his playoff average.

And I dunno why it's disregarded than J-Ho only played 6 minutes in Game 2, and that Game 3 went down to a bad call.

yet people say "Denver was winning regardless" or Denver is the better team?

The 0-7 is a matter of flukes/lucky calls/injuries.

LA went 3-0 v Dallas by taking it to a gear in the 4th all 3 times that Dallas couldn't match

Boston skulldragged Dallas one game and took it to that gear in the other

Cleveland skulldragged Dallas both times.

Those teams are indisputably better, Denver is just lucky.

I have a penchant for recognizing the difference between luck and good basketball, hence my accurate prediction that the Hornets would suck this year despite them being lauded as preseason contenders.

Denver isn't that good.
