If Timmy "moved out of the way" Dirk wouldn't of stepped on his foot. Therefore it's a foul plain and simple. Now stop ing whinning about it.
Go Spurs!!
WTF? Did you even watch the same game everyone else watched? Are you stuck in 2003? Our Spurs just got their ass kicked. They've been getting thier ass kicked the entire playoffs, we can't guard anyone, we're ing old, and ing slow. That's why we lost. Not because of the refs or some stupid consipercy.
Go Spurs Go!!
Pretty easy to act calm and enlightened when you're the beneficiary of poor officiating. I suppose you've analyzed EVERY fact and concluded that your position is correct? That's probably what you've done. You and you alone are the only person who as seriously analyzed this situation and made an objective conclusion.
If you guys are comfortable with advancing in the playoffs riding on your 50 free-throw attempts per game, that's fine with me. If that's what it takes for your team to advance, good luck.
Sure there were things that the Spurs could have done better. Maybe they should have made some more free-throws. Maybe they should have been more aggressive driving to the basket. Maybe they should be more careful not to turn the ball over.
THINGS THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE TO WORK ON INCLUDE:
1) not breathing near Mavs players
2) monitoring exact foot placement so that clumsy players don't roll their ankles
3) not chasing after loose balls for fear of being called for tripping
Stupid post of the day?
yes.........the comebacks are old news
i know George Karl whinges about the refs. I know Melo got upset in round 1 this year with the refs. But i can admit it and also admit that they need to shut up and get on with the job
they get paid Millions to coach and play the game, nothing more and nothing less
Over the first 3 games of this series, Duncan has gone to the line 34 times. He has gotten both our centers into foul trouble nightly. He's drawn a few fouls on Dirk also. He has also had several 'and 1' plays. Duncan is getting his fair share of calls.
The problem lies in that all of the Spurs other big men are benchwarmers right now. Duncan is the only shot blocking presence playing good ball right now so when the Mavs drive, he is the only guy that is going to get the block or the foul.
Dirk has gone to the line 37 times, and the majority were yesterday, which I will tell you is an aberration. There won't be many (if anymore) nights like that. As hard as it may be to believe, Dirk doesn't get every call either. For most of the season, Mavs fans feel the same way about respect for Dirk that Spurs fans feel about Tim.
Mavs fans can't even try to be funny.
It's either a block or a trip, dude was moving (as he himself had said, he was trying to move out of the way), by the rules as they are enforced go it was either a block or a trip b/c contact was made. It's a ing foul so stop ing ing about it and focus on the fact that our team is playing like ass!!
How about you shutup and stop trolling? Seriously.
You have my vote.
His feet were planted. You've got no case and I highly doubt you're even a Spurs fan dude.
The poster's fave team was listed as the Mavs until he changed it 2 seconds ago. Yep, a stupidity front was on its way.
How can his feet be planted when he himself said he was trying to get out of the way? WTF? It's a foul, I hate to say it, but it's a foul.
Asswipe you lost any credibility you had when you changed who your favorite team was. No sack so get lost.
And just in case you can try to get ut of the way by leaning back or to the side. He didn't move his feet
I'm not sure what you are talking about, but I did no such thing. I've been a Spurs fan since 1993.

Maybe I was wrong about your not being a Spurs fan. In that case I apologize. I'm not wrong about Duncan's feet. He was planted.
Just saw SPARKY's post. Maybe I wasn't wrong about the asswipe thing either. Busted.
We've faced the Kings, the Lakers, the Nuggets, the Nets, the Pistons, the Suns, the TWolves, the Knicks. Who else? It is safe to say that Mavs fans are the stupidest we've had to face.
Is this thread about crying?
Yeah the Mavs clearly got into the paint more than the Spurs that's why they got to the line 50 ing times. Except the Spurs led in points in the paint 50 - 42. Oops...
weak.
Horrible officiating that changed the outcome of the game is.
Godamn. Why can't you ers just give it up? Do you think that every time the Spurs have won in the playoffs the officating has been neutral and they simply outplayed their compe ion?
Of course not, because officiating is a variable that changes form game to ing game. But the difference is that you don't see 20 damn 20 page threads in here when the Spurs get the benefit of the calls.
Get over it. There were calls that didn't go the Spurs way but the bottom line is that they didn't execute a play which would have given them the lead. They also didn't box out Dirk to prevent Dallas from taking the leauge. In the NBA to win a championship those are the little things you have to do to overcome officiating in games when you may not have gotten your share of the calls.
But give it up. The Spurs did not lose because of officiating. They lost because of everything they did wrong and the fact that they didn't decide to start playing ball untill it they were in a pretty damn deep hole.
Don't expect to get a fair shake. Expect your team to rise above whatever is placed in their path if they want ot be champions. If not, they can go fishing like the rest of the also rans.
But for 's sake, quit your damn whining already.
I don't know where Spurs fans have been all season, but FTA has been one of the biggest downfalls for the team this season. I'm sure a lot of it had to do with injuries to Tim Duncan and Manu, but Spurs have not been getting to the line ALL SEASON LONG.
Yes, there were some crazy ass calls in the 4th quarter (i.e that Brent Barry foul as Dirk was going out of bounds still has me confused), but I think it's time to move on. There's nothing we can do about it now, and NBA officiating "is what it is" as Bruce Bowen likes to say.
Did somebody appoint a new head etiquette Nazi?
Go get a life sellout.
Shouldn't you be busy buying Spurs tickets so that you can go to the next game only to leave early again and quit on your Spurs?
Sellout.
