I'm not even mad about tonight's game. Nobody is beating the Celtics if they play at this high of a level. I can handle any other team winning except Phoenix. With apologies to JMark, Xylus and ODM, THE SUNS. You're not getting a ring either.
do you not have a re s forum to post in? where they understand your sub-1st grade writing level?

The Mavericks problem is simply this....they are holding back and it is making all of Maverick Nation impatient. Guys they are almost there. This adversity is setting up to be a beautiful run to the 2008 championship in June. The playoffs are almost here folks.![]()

I was there tonight and I cringed when they announced Steve Javie's name as part of the officiating crew, and that's exactly what we got, a visitor-friendly officiated game. But we had our opportunities to win this game and it's not his fault this was a must-win for us.
They can't run because they don't have the athletes around Kidd needed. Stackhouse? Dampier? Howard and Dirk are the only ones that can run the break with Kidd and the best team are going to put fast players on them to shut down the break.
kidd is old that is why they can not run
I agree think avery is a good coach but i heard him on my surround sound yelling instructions constantly. 2 be honest I wish Phil was more involved ...but in my job or when i used 2 hoop id much rather have freedom then a micromanager.
Larry Brown would be the perfect addition to Mavericks.
You guys should start a website demanding Cuban throw millions at Larry next season.
You guys should call www. getupoffyourass.com
Big win by LA few have walked in to that building and got a win ...Jazz are good they just won in Boston but I do not fear Dallas, Utah, Houston, Warriors or Suns the WCF is a 3 team race Lakers/Spurs/Hornets
The ECF? Celts/Cavs/Pistons everyone else are pretenders may win 1 round that's it
John Lucas as a coach=AJ as a Coach

if we didnt lack size id give you Odom for J-HO ...but if he is so dumb you should take radmonovich and walton instead!!!![]()
Riley is a great coach but he is NOT coming to Dallas ... Larry brown could help
You'll learn on Sunday that the Mavs are just fine.

I hear Isiah Thomas will be looking for a job.
Spurs and Rockets fans everywhere are praying for this.
C'mon Cuban, get that pen out and make er happen!
That was not his only mistake in that dreadful series.
I don't see PJ or Riles abandoning their team concept in the playoffs.
A big blunder that cost us a le IMO.
any chance Johnson is gone after this season? Id love to see him in Denver. Someone needs to get Melo on track. GK did it at first but he is just too darn relaxed now and doesnt seem to care at all.
We need someone with fire and passion. Avery would whip Melo into shape and we know Melo can be clutch, all he needs is a decemt coach to help him shape his game for the playoffs.
Beating the Spurs on sunday means nothing bc this homestand has already been a disaster
He inherited a very good team and blew it. Lost to the Miami Heat for crying outloud. We alll know what they really are. Lost in 1st round as number one seed last year. Avery actually changed his line up to match the G.S. Warriors. You trade for Kidd to finish games and the first close game they are in Avery sits Kidd the last 30 seconds or so. Durning interviews he always blames the players. Mavs had a smalll window and I believe it has closed. This Kidd expierence doesnot seem to be working. Kidd actualy looks lost and worse 15-16 games later. Thats Avery's fault.
Basically, and that falls on Avery. He's way too uptight and that is passing onto the players. Yesterday's game was a prime exactly. They were up 4 points with about 2 minutes left and seemingly had the momentum, then their offense went out the window. Howard passed on an open shot, Stackhouse passed on an open shot, Dirk passed, then they were forced to go back to Dirk and he had to make a contested jumpshot falling back.Most mavs: "I'm going to pass instead of taking an open shot because I don't want to be the reason for this loss".
That team is way too talented to be a 7th seed in the West and struggling like this. While part of the blame has to go on the players as they're the ones that actually play, It has to fall on Avery the most, his lineup changes, his calling out the offense and plays almost every time down the court, his obvious lack of trust in Kidd and what he can do, his refusal to be flexable, and his underutilization of young bench players are all a factor.
He's like JVG in the sense that he's a great defensive coach, but when it comes to offense, he's lacking.
Yeah sure, it is AVERY's fault the players are choking.
ROFLMAO !!!
WTF Ever.

Good luck getting out of the first round.
The MAVS have dirk a tough matchup he pulled down 18 plus boards ... against a physical Celts team ...he scores 30 with odom draped all over him the game prior ...Dirk was the freaking MVP last year ...he is NOT the issue granted he played bad vs the warriors last playoffs ...but the real problem is JET/Stack/Howrad are inconsistent when they are hot like in second half vs. Lakers they can play with anyone ...but when they are not ...Bass actually seems the 2nd most relable player because if avery plays him you get 10-12 pts and a nice mid-range jumper plus he drives at Duncan. Id love to have him on my team ...
Dirk's got 3 years of his prime left after this one. I'm not married to anybody on this roster or coaching staff apart from him.
