Mavs lose by 1 to the paul less hornets

[spectator]

man, when i saw the choke job, i could not help but think they wanted to tank it to avoid memphis in the 1st round. then, i realized how stupid that sounds.

That's up there with this Knee Mac classic.

[Harry Callahan]

The difference is the Knee Mac thing was at the time a great player (at the time) going crazy and winning a game.

New Orleans best player was wearing slacks and a jacket on the sidelines. That is worse. Brad Davis shed a tear on the FSSW broadcast. Very Glum and sad afterwords.

Dallas will probably need to beat LA twice in the next month or they will go down in flames in the second round.

Although if they win their first round series won't the Mavericks management be pleased with that kind of improvement compared to the last four years?

Eh, if Spurs beat Dallas next week, it's over anyway

[cheguevara]

then Dirk missed the final shot.

shocking

I'll be there in full Spurs glory! Probably get jumped too.

[Agloco]

And they were ahead by 7 with 1:13 left in the game.... Tracy McGrady was in San Antonio tonight... what happened there?

Non - issue.

Just the Mavericks getting into playoff form.

Carry on.

[Agloco]

The Mavs have won 19 of their last 22 games...

They lost by 1 in each of their 3 losses during that span !

@ Denver Nuggets 120-121
vs Memphis Grizzlies 103-104
@ New Orleans Hornets 92-93

Yeah, I was looking for this too. Amazing really. They always seem to go on some hot streak during the regular season.

Could easily be 22 in a row.

If Spurs win division, and Dallas finish 2nd, which place Mavs will have in playoff ? 2nd or 4th (behind winner of other divisions)

Nah, but you may get asked by the trendy dude or gal sitting next to you which restaurant or club you'd recommend for later, and you may even get asked what a championship parade is like.

The top four seeds are arranged according to their win-loss totals.

The top four seeds consist of the three division winners and the best second place team.

So right now it would look like:

1. SA
2. DAL
3. LA
4. OKC

[bus driver]

what are you trying to do here? i can never finish reading these damn threads

[Cessation]

that ratface gif never gets old, an instant classic

[VI_Massive]

I definitely wanted Dallas to win that game. I'm not as worried about them catching us as I am about facing Portland or Memphis in the first round. Much rather face NOLA. Also, I really want Dallas to keep the 2 seed over LA so the Lakers have to play Dallas on the road in the second round.
