Who thinks the Mavs got robbed in the 2006 finals

[Findog]

Ok

Whats your point?

The point is that they had the only blowout of the series, had no discernable advantage at the FT line, suffered the suspension of one of their top 3 players and still pulled it out in G7 on the road. Your contention that "the Spurs outplayed the Mavs in every facet of the game" is laughable. You can say the teams were pretty evenly matched and the Mavs prevailed by the thinnest of margins. But you can't say "the Spurs outplayed the Mavs in every facet of the game." Not even close.

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.

He got the same touch-foul treatment that Duncan got, that Wade gets, etc. Dirk plays like a 2. I give Wade and the Heat credit for winning the Finals, so I don't understand why some Spur fans can't do the same and move on.

Dude, Duncan shot 90 free throws in that series to Dirk's 80. Meanwhile, Wade broke Jordan's record of free throws in a series with somewhere over 100, in only 6 games. Your argument is fail

LOL...come on Spurs fan stop stooping to Mavs fan's level! HAHA

[mavs>spurs2]

Actually it was 97 free throws, in 6 games

[BlackSwordsMan]

I do!

[mavs>spurs2]

I do!

You're a good man sir,

all the crap about "mavs got all the calls against the spurs!!! wah wah wah" garbage stems from ONE bad call that suddenly got dellusional spurfans/mavhaters thinking the whole series went entirely onesided in favor of the mavs. the call where dirk stepped on duncans foot and duncan was whistled. yeah, that was a bad call. but there were plenty of bad calls that went both ways through the series, as well as plenty of good calls that went both ways that fans of each team felt were bad calls. in terms of FT shots, Spurs statistically benefitted more though. the series was pretty even. dirk and harris got some cheap calls from some flopping, while parker and duncan got calls for nonexistent contact. it went both ways. quit whining.

Proof? Stats for the seven games? Not whining, just to see some proof.

[Spursmania]

It's over. Spurs lost and Mavs lost. I just hope a Western Conference team (my preference, of course, is SA)kicks LA's ass in the WCF this year.

However, whichever team can rise up to the challenge and not cry about being robbed and actually beat LA in the WCF will get all the props they deserve from me. Crying over spilled milk like a little girl is useless. Every team has gotten robbed here and there and some worse than others.

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 think you should stop bringing this up...I mean it only happened 3 going on 4 years ago...it's done with.

I witnessed once a long, bright summer day that would seem to not end and then get ravaged by darkness of night suddenly and with no warning. Pale man call this aclips. We believe it is a shylock who pay dark devil of night handsome reward to capture sunlight so he may profit by providing service of light to others. Dark devil of night rapes the glory of the sun but only executes the shylock's evil intents. And when I say "dark devil of night" I mean Dwyane Wade's black ass. And when I say "rapes the glory of the sun" I mean Dirk Nowitzki and the Mavericks getting ed in the ass during the 2006 NBA Finals. And when I say "shylock's evil plans" I mean David Stern's fake WWE superstar darling driven ideology of the NBA. That's why I carry a flashlight during the daytime.

LOL

Funny gimmick is funny.

makes about as much sense as mavs losing to an 8th seed team after winning 60 games

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

yeah the refs won that series for Dallas in 2006. I'm sure they hypnotized Manu to go foul Dirk.
