    By that logic, Tracy McGrady is more effective at the rack, while drawing contact, than Duncan?

    That's a negative.

    That's the closest I'll get to being around the fan at the AT&T Center. This will be a great measuring tool on how well the Spurs have adjusted to the Mavs offense. The Spurs MUST win this game in a major blow out...not close game. A close game is simply not what they want, even if they win. If they want to make that major statement, it must be in a major blow out. It's on for tonight. 63-win season should mean something for them. Otherwise, they should have just won enough to make #8 seed. It's do or die for tonight. Just one word will sum up this thread, and it's something that hasn't been mentioned much at all which makes the Spurs what they should be:

    POISE
    I don't think the spurs need a blowout. The spurs already have confidence bu they've been missing your last word "poise". If they regain it, it's a totally different series.

    Yep, If the Spurs play a perfect game, no turnovers, no missed layups, no missed FTs, allow no Mavs offensive rebounds, iId say they have a very good chance of beating the Mavs and the refs.

    win GM5 and all the pressure is on Dallas

    because they know if they don't win GM6 they will certainly lose in GM7 @ SA



    and let's stop the Dirk crying already, I remember last postseason when Manu would go the line every damn time and get the opposing team in foul trouble. Manu needs to counter Dirk by flopping just as much





    SPURS IN 7!!!!!!

    A convincing, dominating Spurs' win in Game5 will do wonders to shift the momentum toward the Spurs, and all the pressure onto the Mavs.

    Then we'll see some amazing basketball for Game6, with all the Mavs and fans expecting it to be the elmination game. yep, Spurs win Game6, and Mavs are eliminated.

    "he was backing down Bowen from the high post."

    bull , Dirk was facing Bruce and forearming Bruce. Does amazing Dirk have a forearm coming out of his ass?

    No, but the fact that you can't conceive how a forearm is involved in backing someone down is all I need to know.

    it wasn't a forearm, it was an elbow thrown in bruce's chest twice to move him. that is not legal. if he was even attempting to use his bosy to back him down, that would be fine. but he wasn't.

    Anyways, your point was that the Spurs lived through the refs. Well, I guess the Mavs are deviating from 'championship quality' basketball as well.
    LOL...Dirk has gone to the rim so much in this series, how can anybody say he's just a jumpshooter???

    Generally, if a leading forearm dislodges a defender, it's an offensive foul. Except, of course, in the final 10 seconds of a playoff game in which an all-league defender is called for a touch foul 18 feet from the basket against a guy who wasn't even yet shooting.

    Again, officiating hasn't cost the Spurs anything; but it damned sure hasn't helped them at all.

    Dirk looks so clumsy going to the rim, I think the refs give him the benefit of the doubt every-time, not to mention he's obviously read Manu's book on how to seduce the NBA refs.

    Percentage of inside points scored per 82games.com

    Duncan - 44%
    Ginobili - 40%
    Parker - 49%
    Flopinski - 18%

    Yeah Dirk's a really monster in the paint.

    I have no problem with that. I'd just like to see if the Mavs can do it - for a change.
