I'm shipping off to Boston woahhhhhhhhhhh!
6 points 7 rebs in 14 minutes, not so much sucking balls there.....
mavs lost bc avery went to small ball and allowed a 6ft pg to lead the game in rebs, also Powe had a few key rebounds in the 4th...if Damp or Diop is in their, who knows what happens
I wanted Mavs to win this one, but you guys have horrible ball movement especialy with Terry running the point. There were several possessions where he corner himself and then threw a desperation pass to someone for a contested outside shot with 1 sec left. And then big ole Dirk couldn't even secure a rebound over a midget.And I was about to give him props for showing up in the 4th. Also Josh howard is not an allstar. And the Mavs will not win this year.

yes bc we lost to the Celtics on Jan.31..you sir are a genius
Did i say it was bc you lost to the Celtics?
Proof once again that Terry doesn't need to be running the point.
Rondo had a great move and position for that rebound. It wasn't like he was underneath Dirk the whole time and outjumped him for it.
Josh Howard joins Manu Ginobili as a non-All Star. Big deal.
Ginobli doesnt score 17 in the first half and only 2 points after halftime. (A usual occurence) Thats a big difference.
All you said was that Howard wasn't an All-Star. Neither is Ginobili. Points, quarters, no matter. But you're right - Howard also wouldn't go 0-5 with 0 points in the first half against a mediocre defensive team like the Suns.

God forbid someone say something bad about the precious Mavs. Maybe if Howard stepped it up for the Mavs in teh 2nd half, they wouldnt always collapse in the 4th. That was my point.
Someone be sure and link this thread when the Celtics beat the Spurs in a week or so:
I think our ball movement is so good that we have no use for a guy like Jason Kidd.
Yeah but at the same time, Dirk completely half-assed that rebound attempt. He thought he was all alone and didn't see Rondo until the last second. He got out-hustled big time.
How do you figure? That was the first time in over 4 years they've beaten Dallas at home.
All the Mavs need is clutchness... I dont think Jason Kidd will give you any kind of clutchness... bad shooter always choke in big game
You're assuming we all care about the Cowboys. My favorite team happens to beat New England with quite a bit of regularity. Not many Super Bowls in that span to show for it, but still...
You would have a point if I had said "Once again Boston owns Shank's teams".
LOL Dallas and PHX showing the world why they will never win a ring. Nowitzki getting out rebounded by freaking Rajon Rondo and Amare missing 3 crucial free throws down the stretch.
When your star players are mentally weak your team will never win a ring.
Pathetic ass game by the Mavs. Once again they choke in a big game towards the end.
No excuse for a little ing 6'1 170 pound guy to get a rebound AND a lay up at the end.

They need to trade for somebody with a pair of balls in these types of games or they're going nowhere in the playoffs this year.
wow, it's like all the west powerhouse fans have been going crazy lately
Spur fan especially. Spurs have been sucking so much ass lately, when the Mavs lose you guys go bat crazy.
The biggest problem for the Mavs is they have no one who can create their own shot during clutch-time. Dirk can make clutch shots, I don't doubt that...but problem is more often than not the Mavs try to dump the ball into Dirk in the 4th quarter and try to have him create his own shot/or for others...a la what Duncan does for the Spurs. However, Dirk isn't that type of player. He's much more better at a catch and shoot.
Dallas desperately needs a playmaker...Howard for all his greatness is a 1/2 half type player..almost always disappears or slows down in the 2nd half. Terry constantly takes bad shots for them. The closest thing to a playmaker the Mavs have you can argue is Harris...as he can pass out after the defense collapses on him. But he's young, turnover prone, and not the greatest passer with good court vision.
This is why I argue that the Mavs would actually be instantly contenders and feared if they got Kidd. He is exactly the type of playmaker/pg the Mavs desperately need.
nah, he's old and sucks. His ability to see the floor & create shot opportunities for others is of no use to us. I'd much rather see Dirk make awkward attempts to back a guy down for 14 seconds and then spin & chunk the ball out of bounds.
