Mavs' choking tradition set to continue

[gospursgojas]

The problem with the Mavs is they have no poise. They will jump around, high five each other, high five the crowd, Terry will do the jet thing, and act as if they won a 'ship for a dunk that gives them a 1 pt lead in the 1st quarter.

If the Spurs acted this way Pop would throw a fit and tell them they haven't ing won anything yet.

But as high as the Mavs are for that little lead early in the game, they will be just as low and start falling apart as a team for a deficit late in the game. Thus the "choking" label.

People here overreact so much. The Mavs have no poise? They are a very good team that often goes on huge runs. The Mavs are chokers? They have a great record and beat lots of teams. Dirk, Terry and Kidd are all clutch.

If a couple of calls go in the different direction, it would be the Spurs who blew leads and have no poise.

The Mavs are a great team (compared to most of the league) and they can very well win this series. Spurs have to stick with whats working and play with great energy. I am happy as can be with where the Spurs are at, but the job is not done and the tide can quickly turn against theses "chokers".

Just add "in the regular season" to all your compliments of the Mavs in your ^^^post and you'll be correct.

Mmmkay.

The Mavs have a roster that matches up against the Lakers. As long as Tim is here we will always be in their heads. The Mavs will not win it all this year which will continue
" we got 4 vs 0" Dallas mindset. Dirk is an offensive beast but he needs to eliminate the" he riped off my balls" look every time he gets fouled or not fouled. Man up! Like Manu.

The Spurs 2-1 lead is absolutely nothing right now.

Maybe...but the 3-1 lead we'll have tomorrow morning will be.
