    How can they let that flopping $%*&@! Divac school them over and over again? I know the Mavs play no defnese, but come one! Vlade Divac? Aren't Shawn Bradley and LaFrentz suppose to be at least decent defensively? If Vlade keeps on playing like this the Mavs will be in some serious trouble.

    On a sidenote, does anyone have a more boring personality then Mike Bibby? The dude is a cross between CSPAN and Ally McBeal.

    Also did anyone catch that Dirt Christie flop with about 3 min left in the second quarter? I mean Nick Van Exel did not even touch Christie, and he went flying to the floor! Most disgusting thing I have seen in a while! :mad:


    I HATE THE DAMN KINGS!

    GO MAVS!

    Somebody slow this game down, I'm getting tired. The only games I've watched any faster than this are back when the Denver Nuggets and Loyola Marymount thought their players would explode if they stopped running. Final scores in those games were usually 150-140. :D

    Man, if Bibby was wearing some short-shorts, I would think it was Utah playing out there.

    You're right though, Dallas doesn't stand a chance unless they can play a little D.

    I don't like them. What's your problem with teams playing the Mavs?

    Good. I like seeing the Mavs lose, too. We have a lot in common.

    110-102. Homecourt advantage for the Mavs. Mavs will win in six. Thank you and good night.

    My dislike of the Mavericks stems from my contempt towards their 'fans'. Anybody who lived in the Dallas-Fort Worth area a few years ago knows that support, let alone acknowledgement, of that team was non-existent.

    Enter billionaire owner with no regard for the salary cap, and the flock effect ensues. There's just something inherently unjust with them winning it this soon..... the unabashed bandwagoning, has forced me into the anti-Dallas corner.

    As far as the series has gone thus far, it's pretty much played out as I expected- Nowitzki hasn't, isn't, and won't produce the gaudy numbers he got against Minnesota, and Nash is the real key to any championship aspirations they have.

    Ironically, deep down, I feel like the Mavs have a better chance of dethroning the Lakers than the Kings, who are just a mentally weak team. It starts from your best player on down, and when your best player, Webber, pouts 75% of the time he's on the floor, don't expect to go far.

    How a team reacts to adversity speaks volumes about their chances. Peja, Webber, and Vlade are all more inclined to sulk and moan than overcome the situation, no matter how dire it may appear to be. Teams like the Lakers, and I'm starting to see it from the Mavs, respond rather than recoil when face to face with adversity; that is what separates them from the likes of San Antonio and Sacramento.

    Hey, there was lots of acknowledgement. I remember all sorts of moaning and groaning about Don Nelson when he picked Dirk in the draft. :)

    Come on you cant blame all the Mavs for that. I used to think like you (not that your thinking is wrong or right :) ) and blame alot of stuff on bandwagoning. The Mavs were really not fun to watch before Cuban came. As soon as Cuban comes the Mavs become the most exciting and one of the best teams in the NBA! Do you really expect most people to say "Eh the Mavs still suck and who cares?!" No. I mean the Mavs are an entertaining product and people living in Dallas should pay more attention. Every team has many bandwagoning fans (except those Lakers - sometimes it seems they ONLY have bandwagoning fans! :mad: ). The Rockets will have bandwagoning fans when we start winning.

    Webber showed that he is softer then the Charmin I use. "Ooooohhh, ref I got fouled shooting this jump shot! Protect me, please! I have a date with Tyra and cant mess up my body going inside like a man." :rolleyes:

    Divac should rott in HELL!

    Christie and Bobby should be his henchmen in hell!

    Turkeyglue and Suckokavich are the ugliest mofos in the world! :mad:


    GOD OH GOD I HATE THE FREAKIN KINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    And damn DOD. How old are you? Who the heck is Loyola Marymount?!?! Did he help Naismith invent the game or something? Did you help invent the game? :D

    Oh.....GO MAVS!!
