I agree with this, because I don't think there will be another game in Dallas like the one last night if I had to bet. If Dallas can play a good game again then they can win, if not then Nuggets win
By the way broheim, that dude in you sig is awesome, lol.

I'm sorry, but for anyone here who posts on www.dallas-mavs.com some people are stupid, ok one person. My friend is a Mavs fan and signed up that's how I read the posts, but anyway post by Tremaine
"Yes, they are good, but also extremely lucky, and they still have not faced a team in the playoffs that is a true test.
The Hornets were just a MASH unit and Josh Howard was limping around for you."
"So you can not judge the Nuggets until the LA series."
So I guess I couldn't judge the Mavs till they played Nuggets as well, the first round doesn't count since Spurs didn't have a player
During the timeout, the Mavs should've told the refs that they'll intentionally foul. THe loss should be blame on the Mavs coaching staff as much as the refs.
Yeah..that's what the commentators were saying...you're SUPPOSED to do that. You have to let them know..otherwise, barely touching the guy, and then pulling your hands back like you didn't foul doesn't do it. And the Mavs know that. I don't think there was an intent to foul, to be honest with you. I think they were trying to play defense..they just didn't expect the 3.
This is pretty common. Its hard to believe they didn't inform the refs. Has anyone heard from their staff anything indicating they did communicate it to the refs?
So people here are still trying to justify that it was Wright's up even after the league issued a statement admitting it was them that ed up? ok.
But this is the same league that messed up in the first place, how can one be sure they did not mess this up as well?
Mavs are doneski
you don't want to be the ref who called a weak touch foul in a last second situation unless you know they're intentionally fouling. the mavs failed to communicate that to the refs and then wright sent mixed signals by fouling but raising his hands. he was raising them to make sure he didn't get a shooting foul called, i think, but still, it was a harder call then its being made out to be.
sure the NBA admitted they messed up, but did Dallas say they informed the refs? I didn't hear them say that. Mistakes on both parts I think till I hear otherwise
Did Wright foul Melo or not?
Wright might have fouled 'melo, but he clearly didn't want to foul 'melo, or he wouldn't have put his hands up after he reached in. He made a snap decision that it was better to just stand back and watch the ball to see if it went in. Only after it went in did he turn to the officials to . Classic case by the Mavs of wanting their cake and eating it too. The NBA was stupid for issuing a statement that it was an intentional foul, when they have absolutely no way of knowing whether or not it was intentional, and the defender's body language says that it wasn't.
I have to say that I love the irony of Mavericks fans whining that the officials robbed them by NOT calling one of their players for a foul.
I am amazed at how consistently you exhibit Pavlovian responses to the following:
Nice to know that the blue and green is still capable of making you take leave of your senses...and has unhindered access to the manic part of your psychological profile.
I'm not amazed that you completely ignore all the facts I stated in favor of challenging my motivation for doing so. Yeah, I don't like the Mavericks. Their reaction to a loss by blaming something other than their sheer lack of clutchness - AGAIN - is the primary factor in my dislike of them.
I keep waiting for an opportunity to give them props for losing like men. FYI, I'm still waiting.
Your "facts" dispute Antoine Wright reaching in and hacking at Melo's arms. He should've played to the whistle and wrapped him up better, but in a game that featured 89 free throws, his actions cons uted a foul.
Denver is a better team, would've won the series anyways, Jet missed a FT, Josh missed a FT, Dirk missed a shot at the end, etc. They can't blame the loss on that blown call. But it was a blown call, even though in your absurd telling, it wasn't and the league is throwing a sop to Cuban.
Anyone want to help me murder Stern, pm me. We'll take one for the team
Whiny, crybabies aka 2006 ChUmps so we should not expect anything else but whines and tears!!!
Not exactly, as I never said he didn't foul him. I said he didn't "intentionally" foul him, as is evident by his body language after he reached in with one hand for the ball and got 'melo across the wrist. But now that you mention it, I do dispute your characterization that he was "hacking at Melo's arms", as though he was whacking away at the guy while the official stood there refusing to call the foul. Carmelo flailed when Wright reached in, and the officials may have been reluctant to reward him with a call, particularly if it could possibly have resulted in three free throws at the end of a game like that.
BTW, how was Wunderlich supposed to see Wright getting Anthony across the wrist when he was behind both players? All Wright had to do was put a hand on 'melo's waist and it's an immediate whistle. One would think an NBA player would understand how to commit a hand-check, but then again, one would think that his body language after reaching in said "I wasn't trying to foul him", one would think that a coach would tell the officials that they intended to foul shooters on the floor, and one would think Wright would have complained to the refs BEFORE the ball went in if he actually thought he should get the call.
I cant wait until the day we have the technology when refs are no longer needed
@ tremaine. this idiot is a nugget hater that goes around signing up on the team forums of whoever we are playing and just trashes the nuggets with complete and utter nonsense. he did it for the hornets, he did it for the mavs and if we advance you will see him at laker boards.
and when we are eliminated he will be the first to celebrate and say 'i told you so!'
