Please pray the Mavs lose today at home

[Pelicans78]

Carlisle loves his guys too much even to cut some playing time of them, not to mention trading them away. Even a swap of Josh for Gerald Wallace was considered lateral move by all mavs fans except monosylab1k.

Lateral Move, my FREAKING ASS

monosylab1k is a Thunder fan.

[The Franchise]

How in the do you lose to a shorthanded Blazer team, on the second game of a back to back? I don't know why this makes me mad, but it does.

[Pelicans78]

if it were up to mono we'd have tyrus thomas instead of dirk

What's wrong with that? Thomas is cheaper. Use the money to fill other holes.

[sribb43]

I havent been to a mavs game since the cavs win back in dec and i dont plan on going back if they continue to put up these continued pathetic efforts at home

[Rogue]

The league chiefs just block whatever nice trade proposal Donnie attempts and the Mavs always remain too kind to appeal, while colonel stern never responds negatives to the teams he loves like the Lakers. NBA is RIGGED.

[mavs>spurs2]

People still watch nba basketball? I'll be tuned in to WWE Raw monday night for more entertainment.

[Killakobe81]

WOw just saw the highlights like i said angre is a good NBA PG but 52?
I think Mavs are in trouble I want the Manvs in the 4 spot a 2nd round vs. Mavs would be graet i live in Dallas now i could hopefully watch them play Lakers in 2nd round!!!

[sribb43]

Mavs need more Najera...stupid ass Carlisle

[Killakobe81]

a couple thoughts:

1. Why on dirk he had 28 and 9?
2. Miller is a legit PG this game was an abberation but he CAN PLAY the point roy needs to adapt his game when he gets back ...
3. Nate can coach
4. and the Blazers have talent they need to make a move i would trade the offense (bayless and/or Outlaw) for a big man and a defensive guard

[lil_penny]

this was a amazing win.. we lost 3 in a row against quality teams and looked to be on the downward spiral that seemed to be in the horizon.. this win was huge against the mavs without roy.. batum may not of had a crazy stat night but was key in helping with dirk.. and andre was unbelieveable.. the tough schedule continues until all star break. if we can stay afloat this crazy western conf. till roy is back i think we can have a chance at making the playoffs. exciting game tonight dallas fans

1. why describe Andrew Miller a nightmare when he only dropped 52 points on JJB in AAC?
2. JJB is a horrible liability on defensive end which was specially exaggerated tonight but his minutes will shrivel alot after Josh's back.
3. Carlisle cannot coach
4. and the Mavs have sufficient talent at back court to trade for a legit big man and a guard who can still score a little bit without Kidd's spoon feeding.

[badfish22]

agreed.

thanks you fat

a couple thoughts:

ting on Dirk is what certain dumb asses do. Even if a mediocre guard scores 52 points, some blame will fall on Dirk, especially by Spurfan.

This game is on Rick more than anyone else. I just don't know what to say about him.

[Rogue]

in terms of the games lost vexed this season, the Mavs seem to have picked up the vulnerabilities of losing to teams without core players like the Spurs without TL and TD, and the recent blazers tonight aside from Roy's service.

[sribb43]

JJB is the past, present and future of the Puerto Rican rec league but somehow he found his way onto a NBA roster

[fo'shizzle]

Thanks for the win Mavs.

[sribb43]

Thanks for the win Mavs.

Impressive gm by Andre Miller. 52 With 22/31fgs! Fun to watch. Gotta go to bed, VERY early gm tmrw.

Manu rooting for the Blazers , he better not be tired tomorrow for staying up late

[Killakobe81]

Manu just happy for Andre ...
Everyone blamed him Roy is the 2 guard if he adapts his game he will be a better player (better at moving without ball) and Andre could feed the guys that can't create their own shot ...

[Chieflion]

Miller broke his previous career high of 37.

[DPG21920]

I wonder where Findog is with one of his "Is ______ better than _____" threads. LMAO at Mav fans dogging the Spurs for losing to Portland with no Roy.

[mavsfan1000]

You are such a dumb . This is the perfect game for you to attack Kidd, your favorite thing to do, and you randomly attack Dirk even though he hit a bunch of big shots in the game. It kinda becomes a little big predictable when you run the same Dirk iso play 25 times at the end of the game

Yes Kidd sucked on defense but Marion couldn't do any better. I just accepted it that no one was going to stop Andre Miller this night. But Dirk taking perimeter shots with his back to the basket is a horrible shot for anyone. He took 2 horrible shots in a row that made the difference in the game. He also let Miller get a free layup when he switched onto him. It was embarrassing that our supposed star was being this poor offensively and defensively when it counted.

[DPG21920]

Also what are people talking about Miller draining 3's; he made one. What happened to Damp? Did he get hurt or coach just decide to go small ball?

[mavsfan1000]

What I also hate are fans that attack other fans after a loss for analyzing why they lost. Dirk cost us the game with his stupid fadeaway jumpers. I mean is there a lower percentage shot out there to use?

[badfish22]

When Kidd guarded Miller, Miller just toyed with him. It was like JJ Barea trying to guard Michael Jordan. When Marion guarded him Andre hit a three pointer (he shoots 19% on those) and a ing hook shot.
Rick put Marion on him way to late in the game. Andre was already on fire. It all comes back to Rick.
