Mavs vs Lakers Gamethread

[Allanon]

Mavs might be the 9th seed soon...rough stretch..just gotta make the playoffs

I know it's been said, and said again but this Western conference race is just friggin awesome this year....too bad Yao's out, would've added to the mix.

Im hoping we get the 8th seed.

good coaches tell players the same things over and over again to remind them
that is what they are paid to do!

do you think aj can think of something new ever game
he has to tell them something of the same thing from last game

Your argument is stupid. Avery doesn't have to tell Bass to get the rebound. Kobe wanted it more and outmuscled him for the ball. So what exactly is your point here? Bass didn't have his head in the game? Avery ed up by not instructing Bass to box out and get the rebound? Should he be telling Kidd to bring the ball up the court after it's inbounded off a Laker make? I can't even tell what you're arguing or what your point is.

Your only as strong as your weakest link.

Well if you think Gasol is a weak link. Then go ahead.



He must be the greatest weak link ever.

Ok start talking MMA. Dont enter territory you dont know about. Go tell Fedor to fight legit opponents and not cans and asian freakshows with growing disorders.

Fedor raped the current UFC HW champ twice already. What is Randy's record? Like 50%? Fedor is undefeated aside from one cut loss. Randy is the best in the world because why? He beat Tim Sylvia and Gonzaga? Gonzaga got schooled by Werdum and Nog finished Timmy unlike Randy. Fedor > everyone.

It's amazing that you can be 39-21 and the 7th seed. Given our schedule the rest of the way, we'll probably finish with around 53 or 54 wins. I wonder where that would leave us seed-wise. Barring injuries, we're going to make the playoffs. The only question is whether we'll be a low or high seed.

Eh.....50 vs 25 FT attempts, and we only lose by 4? I can feel encouraged by that.....I think we've still shown we can play with all the big dog teams so far....with exception to the hornets

off to utah....

[Harry Callahan]

Kidd cannot shoot consistently well enough to get Dallas deep into the playoffs. He cannot defend like he used to. The missed free throw was a killer.

Markie Mark is going to have a very sad look on his face in late April and early May with the Kidd trade. Avery will pay the price with his job either this year or next year.

This is really the last tough stretch of the season for us, once we're done with Houston on Thursday night. Then we get a bunch of creampuffs in a row at home. We need to get one of these road games, and Utah is our last chance. And it goes without saying Houston at home is a must-win. If you think about it, three road games against San Antonio, LA and Utah is like a playoff series. In a series, you just need to get one on the road. We still have a chance to do that.

Kobe wanted it more...hence the two handed shove in the back from kobe.....

You're not going to get that call, so there's no point in complaining about it.

Your MMAth is weak. Fedor never "raped" Nog. Randy is a warrior and you dont walk through the guy. The only person who has ever gone close to that was Barnett at UFC 36 six years ago. If you count Mark Hunt as a legit fight..he hasnt had one in 2 in a half years. Lindland is a natural MW. Last time he fought a relivant fight was Cro Cop. I honestly think Fedor would beat Couture. Im just a big randy fan.

Hey Mav fans: at least you guys played both the Spurs and Lakers damn hard on their homecourts, I really expected you guys to fold in late in the 4th in both games.

Could just as easily been a sweep of those two teams. Still, with the West race what it is, there's no moral victories.

Except the Mavs didn't fold late in the 4th today...so you have no idea what you're talking about.

[Purple & Gold]

Good game. See you in three weeks.

2 more left lots of time left in the season. Dallas is a damn good team. Too bad Bynum probably won't be ready. See you in 3 weeks. Hope it's another great game like this one.

really
have you beaten a good team with kidd yet?
that is what I thought NOPE

[ducks]

I wonder if mavs are the 8 seed if they could actually not under any pressure beat the number one seed

[dallaskd]

Mavs should look into trading Josh Howard, he's even more anti-clutch than Dirk

[ducks]

howard just does not want the ball in the 4 late
kind of like kg

You're right, we should go ahead and forfeit the rest of the season after the Spurs and Lakers blew us the out. We just showed we can't hang with those two teams.

You've got to be the stupidest on here. You make SpursDynasty look coherent and cogent.

[Tradition]

Mavs perimeter D has been and still is . Kobe ass ed them for over 50 today and he was getting anything he wanted on them. Dirk played great in the 2nd half but everyone else sucked ass. Problem for the Mavs is for any team with a superstar perimeter threat will get to the hoop at will against them. If Kobe didnt start out 3-10 he could of had damn near 60. I cant wait until Bynum returns.

[dallaskd]

Why dont Laker fans post on Laker forums?

[dallaskd]

makes sense to me...
