Notice his is missing...what happened to the rumors of this past March?I think it may be raised when he stops sleeping with the enemy.
AJ's been drinking the Cuban/Nellie kool-aid too long. He's lost his Spur toughness. Good for us.
As Expected.

Don't tell me: He's posting it due to his interest in the good of the game, not because his team just lost and he's a pathetic crybaby.
So will this change the officiating in game 2? Will Bowen be getting ticky tacky fouls?
Game 2 will be alot like game 2 vs Seattle last year.
Ginobili, Parker, Duncan, and Fin, Horry or Barry gotta bring it even more.
They will have to bring more defensive intensity as well to help Bruce out, as ing es Johnson and Nowitzki will get their fellatio reffing tuesday.
Ah, I didn't even take that as a negative -- I guess I should've looked at it that way. I thought he was saying he played great D on Dirk....didn't take it like he was saying it was illegal D.
I actually thought it was complimentary at first too .. that he was saying Bowen guarded Dirk really tight and they'd have to try to do something to get Dirk going.
But then after I heard the Dirk interview, Bowen's response to AJ's comments, and Cuban complaining ... I thought maybe Avery was just ing about the refs without directly ing so that he wouldn't get fined.
By Bowen's comments, he obviously feels a little disrespected by AJ, which probably will fire him up even more.
Dirk had 2 points, and it was on a breakaway dunk while he kept looking behind himself hoping Bowen wasn't anywhere close.
What a bunch of whining es....
Spurs have already got a huge edge mentally obviously.
Maybe everybody else just misunderstood?Who knows. Contrary to what a few people have said on here, AJ doesn't typically about the refs and stuff like that (he leaves that upto Cuban! lol who honestly, hasn't been that bad about it this year in comparison to years past)
The Mavs might want to really be worried, especially after those comments, dont thye know what happens when this occurs.
I thought the officiating was fairly consistent, but that the Mavs got away with a lot of interior contact and that the Spurs were called for some touch bull (like when Manu got whistled in the 1st for stripping Dirk with all ball).
Why is it that the NBA, NFL, MLB are billion dollar industries but still can't seem to s out enough to have FULL TIME PAID OFFICIALS? These guys should be full time, year round employees who are constantly working to get better at their craft. It makes NO sense to have this much money and power at stake and not s out an extra mil or two to make sure you have the BEST officials, and that they are constantly training to be better.
The NFL is the only league that doesn't have full-time officials.
I wasnt aware of MLB umpires having outside jobs, maybe in the offseason, but definitely not in year.
Same with NBA officials.
Ok. I may be wrong about the NBA and MLB, but I knew NFL didnt have full time officials. Basically I was saying that NONE of these guys should have any other jobs. If they do, they shouldnt. And if the NBA officals dont have any other job and do this full time year round, then there are many of these guys who need to be FIRED IMMEDIATELY because they still suck.
Excellent.
FWIW, I always figured TimVP could be saved from the Darkside...I guess we'll find out this series.
This little dialogue between Bruce(take one for the team Bowen) and Avery(take the $$$) Johnson should just about be the final straw. Hmmm not sure if those are the best nic names I could use...
How about Bruce(I held an MVP candidate bigmen to 20% shooting) Bowen VS Avery(I let a Laker scrub shoot 90% from 3 against us in the WCF) Johnson?
If nothing else it adds a of a lot little subplots to this series, such as:
Will TimVP injure himself straddling this line?
Will he be happy or sad at the unusual chill found in the air of the Ellis home this hot Texas summer?
I have so much to say on this subject...
Nah, I think I'll just sit back and enjoy it.
What's the old expression? Give a fool enough rope and he'll eventually hang himself? Thank you AJ...for being AJ.
Cue AJ apologist of either the MavFan or TimVP variety in

Yes, if Dirk is going to dribble into Bowen, Bowen is going to stick to him like strudel.any thoughts?
This city will hate AJ by game 5.

But I don't see this ing everyone's talking about.
How is it Ms. Cuban says nothing about reffing until an hour after a loss? Coincidence?
As you know, he's always commenting on the refs. The timing of this one seems to be poor. I would hope, for his sake, that he wrote most of this over the weekend and it was largely coincidence that it was posted this afternoon. If not - it comes off as sour grapes.
His previous officiating related post was right after a loss to the Spurs, as were the "Dairy Queen" comments.
now what wouldbe really tight is if we could IM cuban and send him a link to this site an have his ass post up in here
is there a way to do that.......but i serioulsy doubt a billionaire like herself would have the ta'ta's to show up here anyways
but would be nice
