    We had clients in town and my boss had something come up, so I got the 'honors' of taking said clients to the Mavs game vs. Indy tonight

    I already burned my clothes I wore at the game, fixing to go shower in bleach but I thought I'd share some thoughts from the game:

    1. Their arena announcer sucks. People should never about Stan Kelly. Seriously, I think Plano East has a better announcer than the tool trying to pump up the crowd in Dallas.

    2. It doesn't matter what game he is calling, Jack Nies sucks.

    3. How the does Erick Dampier look decent against us? The guy blows.

    4. I've never seen a more arrogant white boy than Jeff Foster. Which is funny, because he isn't that good.

    5. I thought Tim Duncan whined a lot, then I saw Devin George and Dirk Nowitzki go menstrual, and realized Duncan's not THAT bad.

    6. I don't know who the pasty white ref was, but he called one foul on Dallas all night long and followed that up by calling a horrible call on Indy at the other end to make up for it

    7. Danny Granger did a good job defending Dirk and pushing him out of his comfort zone. Where's a six foot nine SF when you need one?

    8. Al Harrington is a beast. If Indy would have gone to him more in the fourth instead of trying to iso Tinsley, they probably would have won.

    9. The offense should be run through whoever is being checked by Devin George. The guy sucks. And he's a whiner.

    10. Jack Nies sucks.

    11. The chick with the Salma-esque rack in row G who kept turning around and jumping up and down to get the crowd in it during the fourth made me forget all about Jack Nies sucking so bad as a ref.

    12. Devin Harris flops more than a politician. Seriously, if Tinsley even took a dribble towards him he was stumbling backwards 20 feet and falling over the first row of fans. If this were a soccer game, dude would have been red carded in the first. The sad thing is the refs bought it three times.

    I never want to hear a Mavs fan cry about Manu again. Manu could flop on every possession for the rest of his NBA career and he wouldn't catch up to Harris.

    13. I'm glad the company picked up the tab for those $8 beers, four rounds worth.

    14. Stephen Jackson is wasting away in Indy. Damn you, Dan Fegan

    15. Jermaine O'Neal is a skinny er. Drink some milk.

    16. They have a defense graphic on the scoreboard that consists of a bobble headed version of Dirk and Terry punching the word defense. Richard Simmons would be proud.

    17. Lots of Mavs fans get pissed when they see a guy sporting a Spurs 2005 NBA World Championship t-shirt at the game. There must have been five or six pathetic fans who spent more time trying to say something clever to me than watching the game. Dumbasses

    18. Now I know why Dallas gets a lot of calls - AJ spent more time grabbing ass than a couple of frat daddies in a bar.

    19. We better beat those ers tomorrow.

    Watched the game, I was rooting for Indiana pretty hard. Seeing O'Neal makes me wish we had him, we have NO inside presence like that and it makes me quite jealous.

    First off, I love Selma.
    Secondly, #'s 1, 2, 10, & 12 are genius.
    Yes, their announcer is humble billy hays and he sucks so hard. He screams is ass off the whole game and it gives you a frigging headache and the f'er talks when the other team has the ball (which I think, is against nba rules). He also screams, "and the mavs take the lead" every time it happens which could be quite a bit during the course of a game. That whole franchise is a beating.

    How's the arena in overall quality compared to AT&T? I've been to Oracle in Oakland and it's not the best.

    AAC is definitely larger (think it seats 3-4K more), but it's way more spread out. SBC is more intimate, and much more louder.

    The club level bar is fantastic though, mainly due to the eye candy

    My favorite comment from the announcer was "if you stand up and make some noise, the Mavs play defense harder. Stand up and make some noise, Mavs fans."

    Damn, that was pathetic (and then only about half the crowd stood up ).

    Devin Harris may embellish taking charges like any other good defender in the league, but he's become one heck of a perimeter defender. He's one of the better guard defenders in the NBA. You got to see him in a virtual replay of his series against the Spurs, where he absolutely killed them in the lane. The Devin Harris you will see in this years playoffs can keep his man in front of him around screens, in the post, and at any place on the floor. He also comes up with excellent blocks and steals. Devin has become a force.

    You guys are going to absolutely loathe Devean George this season. I cant wait. He's a rugged, tough defender and a clutch big-shot maker. You'll hate him.

    Damp had a bad statistical night for Dallas, but he came up with some huge defensive plays down the stretch in the fourth like he has done all season.

    Howard has become an all-star.

    You guys may win tomorrow night but Dallas is very, very good.

    I don't think it's that much larger. Spurs capacity at AT&T is 18,797. I think Mavs is barely over 20K.

    I think it only looks bigger. I will admit there are more bells and whistles at the aac. And they play better in-game music. If only we can get rid of "Day-O"

    He can't keep his man in front of him on screens unless it's a piss poor screen or the Dallas big man holds on the screen. And he flops like a little .

    One of our clients is a huge Mavs fan, and even he admitted what a whiny, talentless hack Devin is.

    The only thing I'm going to loathe is not being on the first row at the game where I can talk about how much he sucks to him.

    Spurs capacity at AT&T is 18,797. I think Mavs is barely over 20K.
    I was thinking 18K for SBC, and was guessing about 21K for the AAC. Still, it's much more spread out, and the club level is much more spread out, at the AAC than SBC. I think the top seats at the SBC would be about mid-upper deck at the AAC.

    Outside of all the plastic surgery in the house tonight, I think the SBC Center is a much better place to watch a game than the AA Arena.

    Leg room sucks in the upperdeck in all the newer arenas. I guess it's just the sacrifice for good sight lines.

    Aww, is someone a wittwe bit mad? Or maybe drunk and mad? Aww, poow wittwe baby. Devin Harris will slaughter your team again this season. Get used to it.

    You hang on to Matt Bonner, Eric Williams, Mike Finley, Robert Horry, and Oberto. None of whom I would want coming near the minutes that George occupies. Your client was puffing you up. George is a player.

    To squeeze as many seats into a confined area at one time. Not good when americans are fatter now than ever. Throw alcohol into the mix and it makes that little space even worse.

    What's good about George this year? (I am asking seriously, not talking smack.) Most Mavs fans I know are always ing about him being slow and not being able to hit a shot. Has he been improving lately?

    Does any one know of anybody that has fallen over in the upper deck?

    Devin Harris is developing a bad reputation with the refs. I saw a couple of those go the other way tonight. Come playoff time, those flops won't work.

    it was slightly better at the toyota center when i went, but still not great - i don't have the best knees but it's bearable. G-nob, leg room has a lot more to do with femur length than how far over your belt you hang.

    Even Laker fans say George is a tool. His numbers weren't great and his defense is marginal at best. The dallas tv announcers overrate him dramatically.

    I wear a size 13, and walking through the upper deck isn't easy.
