Mavs at it again - more bogus technicals

[LEONARD]

Dallas fans don't know what to think or say until Cuban puts it on his blog.

LMAO...the only time I look at his blog is when I see a whiny Spurs fan referring to it

[Spurologist]

HAHAHAHA, Dirk's is greater than some two-bit Spurs fan, but whatever.


Anyway, I just finished reading the Suns forums regarding the game. So while the Spurs are whining about the calls in the game tonight, the Suns fans are berating D'Antoni for picking up ANOTHER technical and calling Raja "stupid" for picking up the first one. It's not just one post, there are several posts about these silly technicals picked up by DA/Raja. Funny how some fans don't use the refs as a bailout excuse for why they lost the game. Oh yeah, while some of you spurs fans are busy supporting the Suns, keep this in mind: a funny post on their board game thread: "Are we playing the Spurs?!?!?! We are making ZERO effort on the boards?"

Hilarious. You admire Dirk's area do you? You might want to contact David Hasselhoff because I think he owns that land.

If that's what I think it is: that's Dirk's tactic of picking up his dribble, pumpfaking and getting clipped on the arm while going for a fadeaway... occassionally on one-leg like so. The angle and timing of the photo just makes it look like he's kicking; you could see his feet is well on the side of Marion.

Too bad there's no IQ test for registering at SpursTalk. They could set it at 50 and screen out this nitwit.

I was wondering about the Raja tech myself but according to the recaps he had extra contact on Harris after the foul and seeing as Terry got called pulling the same later -- they're even.

Did you and Cuban find this after the all nighter you two pulled together. Only one thing is left. Stu Jackson will be waiting.

nah, panda is one of the good ones. dirk always kicks out his leg a la reggie miller as a way of creating imaginary contact. he's just getting the call this year for some reason.

I was actually referring to the entire move, as seen during the game and not just the photo. The photo just shows a "still" of it.

Okay, or until someone tells them what Cuban said.

[picnroll]

I hate that the refs call that crap. I hated it all the years Reggie got away with it. Giving a fouil on that BS makes a joke out of the game. They should just call a foul on the shooter, basically like clearing out with the off arm. That would clean that crap up.

But Manu never did it in the Mavs-Spurs series. Even on a three. Naaaaah...never.

That's not Manu modus operandi. He'll flail with contact, throw his arms up, which Dirk does a of a lot more of on offense too but since he plays no D he rarely does it there like Manu does. The Reggie Miller fish for a foul move with the leg has been passed on to _irk althouh you see Kobe and Carter doing it occassionally. But _irk is almost outdoing Reggie with that BS.

Unbelievable...

[DarkReign]

I have watched nearly every series. It is by far Dallas' Trophy to lose.

Dirk goes 14-27 and scores 50?!

That was a BS game. you NBA.

[Pandaemonaeon]

_irk

ahaha irk

dude where do you come up with this

[picnroll]

Question is will Dirk and the refs ever be able to beat that record breaking 3 of 9 for 27 point performance they threw up against San Antonio in game three?

I didn't know there was a cap or limit on # of FT's a guy can earn???

ahaha irk

LOL...I think he just came up with it...never heard it before

Maybe so...Dirk gets fouled a lot when he decides to go to the rim...

yeah he did, but that's not how gnob normally tries to draw a foul. dirk does it a lot. i reall hate spellchecker on this mac, i cannot write m.anu without it changing to menu. i even added it to the dictionary and it still corrects it.

Dirk? Go to the rim?

[Pandaemonaeon]

I don't know. Most of the time, Dirk just drives without any purpose whatsoever to flail and get the refs to call one. He does get hammered often but he's not as good at getting to the freethrow line to draw fouls as say, AI or Maggette.

Funniest post in this thread, by far.

[MadDog73]

I think Spurs fans are just pissed that Tim Duncan can't hit his free throws.

Dirk is shooting 50% FG, 44.7% 3-pointers, and 89.7% Free throws.

Hate all you want, but I would love for Tim to have those numbers...

[picnroll]

Check 82games.com for Dirk's in the paint percentage compared to anybody even a lot of PGs and SGs. It's pathetic. And Dirk getting "hammered"? Pleeeeaseee. Wade gets hammered, Manu gets hammered, AI gets hammered. Dirk gets breathed on.

[bulletedge]

The refs made some horrible calls both ways in this game. I was at the game but didn't hear or see what Bell did to draw the technical (OK- I was actually reaching down to move my beer so I wouldn't accidentally spill it). But one tech call didn't win the game for the Mavs.

I just hope that the refs don't materially affect the outcome of the rest of the games in this series- or in the Pistons-Heat series.

So? Watch what he's doing. Emmulate him. If he is able to get to the line, then so should Tim, Manu and Tony.

You're right...all of his FT's are the result of getting fouled on jumpers...wtf???

Funniest post in this thread, by far.

Facts are funny?

[Shank]

I believe Dirk's 3-point play at the end of Game 7 was a result of him going to the rim. I mean, I'll need to go back and double-check that but I'm pretty certain. My memory may be a little foggy, though.
