Jason Terry sucking pure ing going 2-9 and you still lost by 6?
Keep it ing up!
lol moral victories
Mavs- 34
Spurs- 14
and you chokers only won by six? I really think the Mavs are going to win this series not because they're better, but because they simply get too many calls from the refs. Regardless, these little chokers are going to get bukkaked by whoever they meet in the Finals. Once a choker, always a choker

no excuses. we could have won if we played better. good news is, its a best of seven series so we can still turn it around.
I wish it's 2006 all over again so the Mavs get to experience another backdoor sweep. Go Cuban, go Dirk, go refs!
Damn, spur fans are little es.
If the spurs don't want the mavs shooting freethrows, then here's a novel idea. Quit fouling. What I see from this spurs team is a team that defends more with their hands and less with the type of lateral quickness required by a trap defense. It also doesn't help when you have Bonner and Mason on the floor.
dude chill out...jason terry has been sucking ass most of the season
Exactly.
Dallas is giving a jumpshooting piece of a bunch of minutes even though he can't hit the broad side of the barn. It's been like this since the 09 playoffs. Barea got a load of minutes in game 1 as well and literally contributed nothing (15 minutes,0-2 FG, 0 points)
Lmao ezau. Typical of this little .
The Spurs shot more FTs overall in the series than Dallas in 2006...
Duncan shot more FTs overall in the series than Dirk in 2006...
dont let facts get in your way though
Wait...Roger Mason is on your team?
Did you mean Duncan shooting more than Dirk?
ya, fixed it...
Both have sucked ass this season, both can't play D to save their lives.
Terry is still better than RMJ however even during a ty year![]()
Mason has no business playing the sport of basketball. I think he spends too much time trying to get his hair just the right way to give a about basketball.
Check out game 3 or were you too busy crying after the Heat berstomped you?
"Don't talk about my hair like that, biatch!"
The thing is Dirk was gifted his free throws. Duncan was being doubled hard and at times he was getting butchered. Everytime the Spurs would take a lead the refs would send Dirk to the line. Dirk is a jump shooting big man. Duncan was playing in the paint.
It's all the off the ball fouls and weak ass soft fouls that happen away from the ball that really starts pissing me off.
Yes, Dirk got fouled a lot and some were fouls and some weren't but that happens with every big name superstar (except duncan it seems) but those ticky tack fouls that happen so early in every quarter that put the spurs in the penalty with like 8 minutes left in the quarter is ing insane. Then the mavs start shooting free throws for some bull bumping call or fighting through a screen call that really changes the game and stops momentum.
If the NBA continues to call the games that soft there is no doubt that style of play benefits dallas and hurts the spurs. Not saying we still can't win though.
Any team with Dirk Nowitzki is going to get a ton of ticky tac bull calls. I honestly don't think there is a single player in the league that gets as many questionable calls as he does. Even more than Kobe, Wade, LeBron not to mention the guys I mention take it to the hoop a lot more than Dirk. Don't get me wrong Dirk is an amazing player but I've never seen a player benifit from the whistles more than Dirk.
Scoreboard
4 rings got.
no scoreboard. THis is a ref complaining, we could have won if it was not for the refs thread, duh scoreboard.
Are you a Heat fan? I thought you were a Spurs fan.
Incidentally, I think one of my favorite things in sports is when two fans are trash talking each other, and then there's that moment where one of them realizes he's in over his head and has to start trash talking vicariously through another team that's not his.
I can understand the frustration of watching a superstar get repeated superstar calls. But if you look at the big picture you wouldn't be.
My take on Nowitski
Dirk is a superstar and gets superstar calls during the regular season when games don't matter as much and against teams the nba doesn't care for in the playoffs (like the spurs... especially the spurs). Then he is treated like superstar royalty just like the others (the Wade's, Lebrons, Kobes', Shaq etc)
It's a big reason the mavs have been able to consistently beat the spurs the past 6 years. Josh Howard was also given the royal carpet treatment by refs as well when playing against the spurs but that is for a different argument. The combination of both of them getting superstar treatment made it difficult for the spurs to beat them.
On the big stage when he is faced against his peers (Wade's, Lebron's, Kobe's, Shaq's) he is a 2nd class superstar at best.
Proof? Who benefited from calls in the biggest games of Dirks' career in 2006 when it mattered, Dirk or D-whistle?
Heat were allowed to mug the mavericks and especially Dirk all series long, Shaq and Haslem basically did whatever they wanted and when the mavs tried to even lift a finger to stop D-whistle the refs stepped and sent him to the line repeatedly.
Again, just my take on it, and when you look at the big picture it's easy to see it's not the smaller puppets like Dirk you should be mad at, its the nba refs and Stern who is the main puppeteer pulling the strings at the top.
