Nowitzki is a good shooter. That's it.
Every other aspect of his game is average, below average, or absolutely horrible.
It negates Duncan's no-call at the end of regulation in Game 7... But you still have attrocious calls that decided both games 3 and 4 both in favor of Dallas....

Players decide games. The refs didn't cause Ginobli to make turnovers, or Duncan to miss a point blank 8 footer.
Give it a rest will ya. You make the rest of your fanbase that has accepted the loss look bad.
He did this:

But that didn't happen... even those that typically don't complain about the refs due to 'objectivity' saw it... Different game altogether when the other team is awarded the free-throws that give them the lead or the tie... you haven't seen me complain about Ginobili's foul on Dirk, have you... that was the right call.
It's harder to accept the loss when the media makes it look like we were annihilated... we lost Game 7 in overtime... and that game could have gone either way... think of it this way, the Mavs were close to adding themselves to the ultimate list of chokers... instead the Spurs relinquished their quest for a back-to-back.... and gracefully exited the stage without comments against the refs....
Avery complained in every single post conference during the series....
"bear-hug defense"
"up hill battle against the refs"
"Big-man shortage"
His whole game strategy was predicated on fouling the living game out of Duncan... and then he has the audacity to complain??? even after the games he won... including Game 7... I was all??? Dude, you just won Game 7 and you are talking about waging an uphill battle against the refs??? And that game the whistle was blown equally 39 to 32 free-throws in favor of the Spurs...
I won't even bother to mention Cuban's infantile rants.... If I dislike the Mavs it's 100% because of this guy...
Yes, we blew our chances... I've admitted that much in several threads, but that doesn't take away the fact that I sincerely believe this series was horribly officiated...
hegamboa give it up. These guys would be pissing blood if their team got jobbed by the refs like the Spurs did. Since it's the Spurs and they that beat their teams and have dominanted lately they're enjoying the jobbing and our complaining about it.
At the end of the series, with all said and done, I believe the Spurs had 2 more FTA's than the Mavs. Had the Spurs made most of their FT's, we wouldn't be having this discussion now would we?
Wow. I came by to see how Spur fans were taking the conference finals. I never expected to see fans who claim to mirror their "all class" organization so willing to blame the loss to Dallas on the referees. Not only that, but to attempt to discredit one of the all-time great playoff performances because of baseless biases.
Dallas is young, and the best player on the planet right now, Dirk, is only 27. You guys better get used to losing to him and his cohorts on occasion.
