Well Sunday night is the season I guess. Lose and we're not coming back from 3-1. Win and we got a chance. I would not have guessed that Rick would've given Barea 31 minutes to Butler's 14 in a critical playoff game.
Mav fans humbled....lmao oh sons!!!!

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the notion of JJB playing an entire fourth quarter in a playoff game. I'm stunned.
Glad to see you rating me so high, I guess that's probably because you're also momentarily high now.
tee, hee.
No Marion, No Butler in the fourth. Apparently this re still trusts his old guys more despite how ing awful the 3-PG lineup looked. Maybe he thought he needed to use his old guys because it was just this bunch of guys that beat the Spurs last season in playoffs, or to make it vivider, curb stomped the Spurs in the first round of playoffs LAST SEASON.at re ed ing spur fans saying Barea played great. He had a spurt of good play in the 2nd/3rd quarters and then got an entire 4th quarter of completely undeserved playing time, along with Terry.
Barea and Terry were both godawful in the fourth quarter but Carlisle didn't have the ing sense to realize his 3PG lineup had run it's course of usefulness and put Butler back in the game. Barea's ballhogging killed at least 2 crunchtime possessions.
It should be noted Caron did not exactly light it up out there in his limited action.
Barea played well, except down the stretch. hindsight is really 20/20 with these coaching decisions. Those two b2b wasted possessions by JET/Barea were quite annoying though and probably cost the game along with Parkers long jumpers.
Let's not act as if this was a guaranteed win if BUtler played in the 4th.
Great game. Tough loss. Put up or shutup time in Game 4.
Mavs center production has been terrible in the last 2 games. 6 points in 93 minutes.
damn mavfans. sorry to say. Spurs reallly want this series and they are in good health. sorry to say but mavs have no chance. they will not win another game this series.
This team is so ed. I'm sure butler, Haywood and Marion don't give a anymore and there is 0 chemistry on the floor
Nope, Butler played pretty silently tonight during the meager minutes he played, but do you think playing him a little bit in the 4th would get it worse than what it actually was? This moron played 3 ING PG(s) through the entire 4th and didn't make a tiny ing change even when they were clearly curbstomped.It should be noted Caron did not exactly light it up out there in his limited action.

hope your dad is alright, give him get well wishes from the spurs community. butler was a non-en y in the first half, guess slick rick carlisle wanted to bench him. i honestly dont know why he was guarding the gatorade the whole second half
I think it might have been the entire second half. I kept waiting for Carlisle to reveal his strategy and throw a rested Butler in at the end, but Rick's apparently too clever to show his cards yet.
I'm sorry your dad isn't feeling well, I hope he feels better.
Gimmick lineups are good in spurts to swing momentum but they will u in the ass if you play them too long, like RC did for the whole 2md half
Mav fan is feeling small ball pain.
But yeah, Carlisle is pretty ing stupid. That lineup was terrible.
I believe the 4 best players of the mavs tonight were on the floor in the 4th. The problem is that their 3 PG never got any rest in the second half and tired down the stretch. Butler showed nothing tonight to deserve playing time ahead of JJ let alone in crunch time. He should've played a little to give JJ a breather though.
exactly, their small-ball looked even creepier than Spurs' where RJ plays as PF and Blair Center.

Butler belonged on the bench. Barea earned the minutes.
its just, both teams played like
Hope Senior Findog isn't a Mav fan and hasn't watched any pathetic game they've played recently. prayers for Mr. Findog Sr
then bench Terry
Best wishes to your dad, Findog.
Carlisle went overboard by benching Butler the entire second half. Guess this was his version of Pop's "dog" speech.
The real dog for the Mavs has been Marion. But Playoff Marion has always been a choker.
Terry is more of a threat than Butler. Caron's been taking some terrible shots, absolutely terrible. JT was one of the main reasons Mavs still had a chance late in the game.
But with either marion or butler on the floor, pop can't play manu/parker/hill lineup so long, and Jefferson has to come in.
Hope your father is ok Findog and it's nothing serious.
what kind of self respecting ER doesn't have a tv in the waiting room?
