What do I think? I think this troll is fail
Wade definitely got some calls in that series but I have always said the same treatment Wade got in games 3-6, Dirk got against the Spurs in games 3 and 4. The difference, Wade was attacking the rim relentlessly on every possession, while Dirk drew fouls on mid range jumpshots. What do you guys think?
I didn't watch the 06 Finals because the Mavs shouldn't have even been there. Spurs outplayed them in every facet of the game. Heat had no business there either, but they did out-coach the Pistons to get there, legitimately.
I hear the Heat won that Finals series in 06...

Sounds like you didn't watch the 06 Semifinals either.
LOL Don't be so sensitive I just wanted everyone's opinion.
you must be new. welcome to
mavs didnt get robbed, the refs just decided to call ticky tack touch fouls... but fouls nonetheless.
I did.
And I was rooting for the Mavs, homer.slurp slurp slurp. pistontalk.com slurp
I watched that series too and there's no way to reconcile that with "The Spurs outplayed the Mavs in every facet of the game." It would've been over sooner if JET hadn't punched Finley in the junk.
Findog...you are going to rile up spurs fans with that kind of logic.![]()
The refs were so biased towards the Mavs, it was sick. Again, I was rooting for the Mavs, but that series was dirty.
Mavs played very well that season, and were worthy of rooting for (defense was much improved, and the team as a whole was very intense).
Every advantage the Mavs were getting in against the Spurs, the Heat were apparently getting, or so I am told by my buddies who watched. But I can't say the Mavs were cheated when they shouldn't have been there in the 1st place.
I can't say the bad calls won the Mavs that series. Not when the Spurs were in position to win game 7. Up 3, Manu fouled Dirk on a and-1 play. Maybe game 4 had some bad calls but at the end of the day...the spurs had their chance to close out the series and simply couldn't. Dirk was and still is that much of a matchup nightmare for the Spurs.
Well, it's true.

Dirty calls I guess.
Mavs shot 4 more free throws than the Spurs over the course of the entire series. That's 1/2 a free throw a game. Yeah, the refs had it out for the Spurs in that series. Go look at Duncan's FT totals in that series. Spurs fans just couldn't accept that Dirk was getting the same superstar treatment as Duncan.
Ok

Whats your point?
The way I see it, the mavs did not deserve to win. 2-0 up and a 10 point lead with 10 left to play(or close to it), and they manage to lose?
With that being said, there is no way you can deny that whistle gets the most Ft's out of anybody. , you just needed to watch his latest game against the lakers to just see him jump into people and get the call. The little isn't even looking to throw a shot out there, he's just waiting for the little most of the time.
Gone over a million times, the Mavs stored up a load of bad karma from the Spurs series and it came back to haunt them. Who'd have guessed it'd be in the same way they acquired it AND in the same playoffs (I mean, that is some BAD karma and a lot of it), but payback's a .
Why does anybody care anyways?..
The NBA's "official" champion of 2006 is the Heat, just like the 2002 "official" champion is the Lakers..going over the calls and screwjobs in anger is pointless, it's not going to change anything..
unless your team is the Lakers, there's always going to be su ious incidents involving officiating..
I won't argue anything, what's done is done and you have your capgun loaded with the usual insults, but marquee players spending all their time attacking the paint get barrel loads FTs throughout NBA history with incredible consistency. Dirk's insane amount of FTs in that series are of the anomaly sort, no question about it.
