    How about that Shawn Bradley, defensive enforcer? I've seen him change so many shots this series its not even funny.

    For instance, I saw him change what would have been a routine bank shot off the glass from Duncan into a poster jam from Duncan on top of Bradley's head.

    Aaaaah, ZRB is pissed and the Mavs have been absolutely ejected from the playoffs. All is well with the world again.

    He's done this all series long, and it ruins the flow of the game. When you're in a blowout, why prolong it with a pointless timeout? Yes I'm pissed about the game too, but the stupid play stoppages just ruin the games further.

    I dislike Poppovich as much as the next person, but I think what he did was right. He is preparing his team for the next series. He wants to point out things that are wrong during play (in a garbage game, more or less). That way they don't have to pay the price of the mistakes when they actually play the Fakers.

    As a coach, the one good thing about Pop is that he is not afraid to call a timeout to break an opponent's flow.

    More often than not, this always seems to work.
