    I was waiting for them to bring up his tirade in game one when he was fined for going after the official...I guess you forgot that too. LOL, it's easy to not blame the refs when you get BLOWN OUT.

    AJ coach of the year? LOL. He's not even the best coach on his team.

    I'll find the link with Mcgrady admitting the moving screen. They had it in the paper and were talking about it with Richard Justice on ESPN radio here in Dallas. He threw a tirade not some dumbass conspiracy. If the NBA had there way they would have Houston and Miami in the Finals so the conspiracy is just plain stupid. that would be huge for ratings. Most of Yao's fouls are because he is trying to take charges and not because of moving screens. On the screens that are called he is getting his arms up. I still can't see how the phantom foul on Padgett really changed anything. The mavs had a 20 and it would have waisted a couple of more seconds off the clock.

    Here is a refresher for you.

    Avery didn't make excuses or whine to the league, because there wasn't a need after the Mavs owner M. Cuban did that after game 2. REMEMBER?

    JVG commented only after Cuban had already whined and made the excuses. Neither you nor AVery seem to be able to remember that right now.

    Let's see. If Dallas loses by a basket then it is about the call.

    If Dallas loses by 20, then you got beat.

    How convenient.

    Funny how a "tirade" is not whining but a "conspiracy" is whining.

    This is some funny sh*t.

    Dude,fathom this.The NBA wants seven out of this series,but you guys suck so bad that the refs can't manipulate it without it looking obvious.You would have been swept or lost in 5 if everything was legit.
    ...and we ARE going to play the Heat in the Finals.

    The best part is, now if Cuban complains, he looks like an idiot. Avery just set his team up for criticism.

    Exactly.

    Cuban is now screwed because he shot his little pop gun way too early.

    I didn't say avery didn't whine. He did after game 1. But making up some conspiracy is stupid. Just take the loss and make adjustments for the next game. That is what every coach needs to do. The calls even out in the end. For you guys to think this series is in game 7 because of the refs is whining. Admit both teams are pretty close and the best team will win in the end.

    May the best team win.

    You know I’m sick of this JVG started a conspiracy crap.

    All JVG said was that because of the tapes that Cuban had sent in, league official were told to look harder at Yao on the moving screens.

    You think this doesn’t happen?

    That isn’t a conspiracy. The media has blown this up into, JVG thinks the league is against Yao which is not what he said.

    "It was like there were phantoms out there fouling,'' Stackhouse said. "Normally you know who fouls. But tonight we were looking around trying to figure out who they called it on. Maybe everyone wanted to see a Game 7.''

    It's funny you say that when your team's owner compiled a video collection to whine to officials that they weren't officiating Yao like everyone else.

    JVG says that the officials were reffing Yao differently than everyone else.

    2 guys arguing the exact opposite points, but JVG is 'pointing out a conspiracy'. :rolleyes:

    1. A.J. did whine to the officials too. Just ask him what happened after game 1.

    2. The reason he did not whine after games 3,4,5 is because all calls were going their way.

    3. He whined last night about the fact that he did not whine enough.

    All that leads to: Averay Johnson is the biggest whinner ;)
