If this b**** does not get knocked down in our next game like Horry did to Nash in the playoffs, then the Rockettes are a bunch of p*****s, with no hope of ever becoming men. Last night was shameful.
Just watched the game after taping it last night. Heartbreak. BUT, I didn't really see any flopping by Harris. I definitely see it when we play Gino or Bowen, but didn't really see it from Harris. Maybe I just wasn't watching close enough. He blows by our defenders and they have to react to try to stop him. If we're going to foul, then we need to prevent him from getting the and 1. Everybody who tried to guard him got abused.
You guys are also overreacting on that foul with Tmac. After watching it over and over again, it was nothing more than a routine foul. If Tmac couldn't handle it, then he shouldn't have played. During the time I thought Devin tried to grab his arm and literally rip it off. After watching it on tape, I instead realized Devin first committed the foul and then tried to avoid Tmac putting the shot up by grabbing him by the elbow No Tmac, we are not going to give you special treatment because of your injury. This isn't practice
Agreed there was no problem on that play. He did what he had to so that Tracy had no chance of making the shot. I respect Devin Harris' improvement as a player. He's come a long way from being a jittery rookie that had people wondering why he was chosen #5. His flopping bit and his regular routine of falling on the ground like he's dying is the main reason people dislike him. While his reaction was wrong, I can understand why Brad Miller got so upset at Harris during pre-season. His Oscar performance with JRich will be a permanent highlight reel. I have a feeling other players will start taking real shots at the guy because he's so annoying. Watch for it. IMO, Harris is already more annoying than Manu.
Well, it's not every day you see a 7'6'' center running a fast break trying to go for a slam. Devin never had any experience with this before and basically tried to stop him from getting the easy two. It worked in the aspect that the shot didn't go in, but Yao got hit right in the face. That should've been a flagrant, no doubt. He did go for the upper area where the ball is. If he was cheap like you guys claim, he would've done some sort of upper cut making Yao flip in mid air and land right on his back. It was definitely a "hard" play, but with Devin penetrating night in and out, this was just a reciprocal. Again, it deserved a flagrant, but it's not a big deal. And good thing it was a flagrant. Only got 1 point on a potential 3 or 4 point play!
If we are not going to play Stevie can we inactivate him and bring Sura back as the unofficial "goon" to drop a few hard fouls on guys like Harris? Just put him on the court for one play. One can dream....
Actually my friend who was still in high school last year said that his ex has visited Devin Harris' house before with a group of high school friends. She was still in high school but was 18....so I guess that's okay.
You are an idiot if you think that was unintentional. He went for Yao's face, the guy is a dirty player...PERIOD !! And he flops on OFFENSE more than anyone I have ever seen. If I was playing ball against him, I would be undercutting his a$$ and flipping him head over heels for all the BS he pulls. DD
Yeah, it is my homer views that see him go for Yao's head on that foul or pull Tmac's arms down on the foul knowing that he has an injured elbow. These guys know exactly what they are doing.... DD
This is why Mavs fans are the most stupidest ****ing losers in the NBA. If they don't think Devina Harris is a dirty flopping piece of human garbage then they are just blind. I would really stop cheering for the Rockets if they ever get somebody like him on the Rockets. Flopping is the single most disturbing thing about the NBA. I rather cheer for losers like the Rockets then those little girly b****es on the Mavs.
I dont tihnk that was the issue tmac had a problem with ...he come down across his arms and all fine, but afterwards he shoved tmac in the back which is what sent tmac into the post and that is what tmac took exception too. not the actually foul but the necessary shove afterwards.
