Detroit fans > Dallas fans

PK, nothing wrong with that. But you also understand that we only see Cuban at his, I hope, absolute worst. Snyder is considered a maverick NFL owner but at least he keeps his mouth shut in the media...

last time i checked pistons have a le and mavs have 0
last 2 times pistons went to the finals they went to game 7's previous to reaching the finals and where were mavs?fishing?

I like this one.


Ah, man...don't come with weak insults about a team that's won the championship recently and is obviously still a badass team.

They won it. Who gives a how many games the series went.

Personally, I'm a Cuban fan. He says some dumbass sometimes. He acts like a fool and a kid, but overall...I like him. He's brought good basketball (whether you guys want to acknowledge that it's good basketball or not) to this city. The atmosphere at the AAC is phenomenal and Cuban is to thank for alot of that. He's fun, he's goofy.

I am tired of the city, the team, the fans, the staff...everything having to do with the organization...being dissed just because people don't like the kookie owner. Sometimes I think he should keep is mouth shut (IE comments about the Riverwalk and the like) but I like that he's not afraid to go all out. He's a billionaire who likes to have fun with his money.

I think it's weak that people try to say he pays the refs and . The league front office hates Cuban as much as you guys do.

In all honesty, a lot of his 'whining' is his attempt to make the officiating better as a whole. I read something not too long ago where he was even pointing out missed calls that would've gone AGAINST his team.

He said in a recent interview that people assume he sends video into the league after every game to ask the league about missed calls/no calls but actually, he hasn't sent anything in over a year.

his whinning definitly braught good offciating gone his way!
and it only cost about 15 grand which is chump change for him to get every call his way!congrats!

I understand. I can definently see why fans of other teams don't like him. I just wish the fans of the other teams didn't assume Dallas is all bad just because of their crazy owner.

Cuban really has done some great things but I understand why that doesn't matter to fans of other teams.

weak insults?
ohh you mean like the pistons had to beat cavs in 7 games?
check pistons history with their last 2 final apearances (while mavs for fishing)and see how many games they went b4 entering the finals!
leave it to a mavs fan to say entering the finals is weak.
one thing that wont change pistons already proved it and mavs still need too

explain why their was no foul called when tony was clearly slapped on the arm
driving to the hoop with 4 seconds left in regulation.
and dont say he wasn't fouled when even the experts and people covering the game admitted he was clearly fouled!

Quit kidding yourself man. I know you have probably only been watching the NBA since Detroit got good, but since the beginning of the league refs 95% of the time never call fouls in the last few seconds. If that was the case the series would of been over in game 5 when Dirk was pulled by Tony on the last play. The last 5 seconds is decided by the players, Parker had the brain to know that if he didn't stop Dirk his momentum would of been able to push the ball in.

Seriously spurs fans get this guy to shut up. I was happy to see 99% of y'all congradulate the mavs and not about the refs, then this guy comes along and acts like an idiot.

[pking]

Honestly, dude...that's weak. Weak.

Did you WATCH the entire game?

Those same experts who picked the Pistons to sweep the Cavs?

Nice how you completely misunderstood my comments and are now trying to make me feel like an idiot. Not exactly working considering that I wasn't telling YOU not to come with the weak insults...I was telling the Mav fan that was attempting to diss the Pistons for taking the series to 7 games. I was respecting your team.

lakers were supose to sweep detroit in 2004 we saw how that went!

watching the entire game has nothing to do with a important no call with 4 seconds left in the game buddy!
and i did see the game where spurs game back from 20 down and got p1ssed on by a importaNT MISSED CALL!

Who's kidding who? I can't believe you just wrote that considering Dirk got bailed out twice with less than 8 seconds left in the game...

Selective memory, eh?

Refs usually won't make a call with the under :10 to play. Usually.

[pking]

Thanks for the whole.."Oh, I ed up, misunderstood what you were saying. You were actually agreeing with me, saying that you liked my comeback and telling the Mav fan that they were a schmuck for acting like the Pistons were less mighty for extending the series to 7 games. My apologies for misreading your post and trying to make you feel like an ass because of my mistake."

Nice. Thanks.

[texas84]

they play in one of the richest and classiest communities in the country!
your the weakest link goodbye!

Hmmm... so rich equals classy, am i correct??

[Holmes_Fans]

Rich = spoiled and whiny

Cubes!

Sorry, had to.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

I really do think the Mavs/Pistons would be a great series. IMO, Detroit matches up better than SA does with the Mavs. Their athleticism would be put to the ultimate test, though...

Still a lot of hoop to be played before that scenario unfolds....

I agree with this.

Teyshaun, Sheed and Ben can all guard Dirk very well.

Dirk would have to have an unbelievable game for it to be close. Frankly, I don't see how Dirk is going to be able to score and dominate the game against the Pistons front line.

Too many athletic and quick bigs who can defend well.

Bring in KVH won't help. Damp will be badly outplayed by Ben Wallace.
Certainly, Chauncey > Terry. Rip > Devin Harris or Marquis Daniels ....
Dirk neutralized by Sheed and Teyshaun = Josh Howard.

In the Finals, Dallas will struggle a lot on offense against Detroit. They will go stretches during most games where they will not score for 5 minutes.


Going big Dallas loses and Going small Dallas loses.

Good luck with the rebounding (at least any important ones).

[Holmes_Fans]

What makes every detroit player so superior to every dallas player? If Detroit can beat Dallas so easily, then the Spurs would never have a chance because Detroit can shut down Duncan better than what Dallas did.

[WayDowntownBang]

Yeah Detroit is obviously a city, a team, and a fanbase known for its class .

Hrm, let me see here.

Joe Dumars. Mark Cuban.

[ForestBrain]

I like the Mavs, but their owner is obnoxious and he's an idiot. I don't like Terry, he showed very little class. I don't like Stackhouse either, he has no class. But I love everybody else. The Mavtalk people are pretty cool, except for a few of them. One is known as Silence is Golden, he's an idiot :P

[Holmes_Fans]

Look up there! It's a plane, it's a bird, no it's a flying cup of beer.

[evilr0b]

Yes Detroit fans are SOO much classier than Dallas fans. They burn their city everytime they win anything. Get over it Homers you lost.

At least you guys have a WNBA team....maybe Manu can wear a dress and redeem himself for that foul with 22.6 seconds left.

Thanks Manu.....You really do rule!
