I Mean Lets Not Kid Ourselfs Here First And Foremost Mavs Played Outstanding Basketball. But I Know I Wasnt The Only One Who Saw Dirk Clearly Hammer Duncan In The Back To Cause The Game To Go Into Overtime, It Almost Looked Like An Intentional Foul. Call Me A Poor Sport But That Was By For The Worst Officiating Ive Seen In My Life! Alot Of Those Bad Calls Defeated The Spurs. Just Knocked The Fight Out Of My Boyz. Being Down Twenty And Rallying Back At The End To Snatch It All Away From Dallas, Only To Have Dirk In The Final Seconds Of His Season Get Away With Murder. Oh And I Cant Forget The Time When The Officials Literally Saved The Mavs In Game Five When They Called A Bull Foul On Bowen With Seconds Left Only To Send Dirk To The Line And Tie The Game, Those Are Some Of The Calls Thats Made A Huge Impact On That Series. But I See The Mavs Tend To Pull Off Some Stunts In Numerous Occasions, For Instance I Know Alot Of You Saw That Game One Against The Suns, Was That Not A Flagarant Foul Against Damp? Or Am I Just Losing My Mind Here? So Hold On Stackhouse Blantly Commits A Foul And Its Ok For Him To Raise On The Court? Could It Be Possible That Mark Cuban Is Trying To Buy A Championship? And With That Being Said That Sad Part Is Dallas Still Lost Game One.

The spurs were the victim of bad matchups. Simple as that.
lmao sorry about that playa left caps lock on
Mavs were the better team. The Spurs were victims of bad officiating, but so is every team in the league. The officating in the league sucks, so from whatever team's perspective you look at it there's always going to be a bunch of bad calls against your team...
The Mavs played better basketball, wanted it more, and didn't make the critical mistakes that the Spurs did.
Dirk has lifted his game this year as much as Tony has lifted his.
Spurs had all they needed to prevail, talent, coaching, experience, but the Mavs wanted it more.
Well, as SCB sez, the best team always wins a 7 game series. I agree with him. Spurs had their chance(s) and pissed it away.
Dallas was the better team.
In a series so evenly matched as this one, the incompetence of the NBA refs comes to surface... Whether or not Mavs or Spurs fans like it, the refs played a big part in the series....
The truth is that nobody wants to call out the refs b/c they know that they will be called crybabies and such...
you were clearly victims of cuban whinning to the nba to get favortism in the series
that is certain!when you have a owner who jumps on the court during every call that doesn't go the mavs way or cry to the media every chance he gets
the calls will natually go his way to make him happy!
1. Bad match ups.![]()
2. Smart AJ's coaching.![]()
3. Bad plays from almost every Spurs's player... the last Manu's fault, but previous in the series we had many mistakes.![]()
4. Mavs has the tallent to kick our ass.
5. Refs were a factor, but not for the amount of bad calls, just for the moment when calls were made.
PS: just for the record ... Cuban is stupid![]()

Here's a visual in case you can't find it

Ref ruined the chance for both teams to show which one is better. Pop and SPURS are punished by the ref for the unfair and inconsistent foul calls and so have to be forced to do different things. Mavs shooting is excellent and clutch but they may not have chance to tie the games at the end when the ref follow the rule to call fouls consistently. Match up is an issue for SPURS to solve but not to the extent that can make Mav a better team than SPURS for sure. Otherwise, there shouldn't be game 7 in the first place. Of course, Mavs coach's decisions are better. In a nut s , Dirk is shooting god, Mav coach beat Pop & Co and ref suck are the conclusions that I can drawn from my suck assessment.
Anyway, Mav won and winner gets all the praise and loser gets all the blames. Go play your WCF and lose to the SUNs.

I thought Game 7 was a great game, even though we lost. The refs seem to let them play. The Mavs were the better team G7, when it counted.
Games 2,3,4 however . . .
I thought the 2ndQ in Game2 took forever. The refs were addicted to their whistles.
Funny how ty the Mavs look when Nowitzki isn't going to the line 30 times a night.
The Spurs were the victims of two things equally:
1. Bad officiating;
2. Choking in the clutch.
you know its funny as im sitting here watching the second game of the suns mavs series, i get called a cry baby for claiming that the spurs were victims of bad officiating but here i am watching the game and it seems like the mavs fans are so spoiled with the whistle that they start boooing and crying when ever the refs dont blow it on a mavs missed shot.![]()
Another factor -- the Mavs were pointing to the Spurs more than the Spurs were pointing to the Mavs.
Every fan base anywhere complains during at least some of the games. But at some point, you need to just let it go and admit we got beat.
Your caps lock key depresses after the first alphabet? That's amazing! Where could I get one?
Similar records. Close games. Seven games.
The two teams were close in terms of talent and skill, even though they have different styles. Dallas was not clearly better than the Spurs, but they ultimately are the better team because they won the series.
Officiating plays a role in all games, all playoff series. If your team wins, they win despite the bad officiating. If your team loses, they lost because of bad officiating. No win situation for the officials.
It was just a great playoff series between two great teams. One team had to lose. And, the officials sure had an imprint on the series. But, that's part of playoff basketball. Gotta persevere despite it.
Then why are other letters not capitalized?
Besides, get the over it.
Another thread pissing into the wind about refs? Ugh.
I am very pleased at many of the Spurs fans responses though. Those of you who have posted reasonably are quite frankly the reason I find this site enjoyable.
And are the pisstoon fans always as ignorant as above? wow.
