    Its not all about freethrows. The team doesnt get freethrows from offensive fouls...or non-calls

    Maybe you should wait until you're sober and then re-watch the game so you know what we're all talking about.

    BTW, I've also sent a letter to the league office. They'll probably just delete it.

    I used to respect Dirk as a player, but it seems he's heading in the direction of Karla Malone. If you play the game like that, you'll never win a ring.

    I think it would be nice if Yao or Tmac called Dirk out for flopping like Dream did to Karla back in the day. Play with some honor, and play like a man! By playing for the flop, he's disrespecting the game and not playing it like it should be played.

    I say we start an initiative to get as many fans as possible to bring "Dirk, Stop the Flop!" posters to the next home game.

    You people need to stop crying about the officiating. You are comming across like a bunch of B---- fans. We are starting to sound like crybaby Utah fans. We got beat and get over it. The mavs are a great team, and T-Mac is starting to turn into A-rod in the clutch - CHOKE. This website should be renamed to CHOKE CITY!!!!!!

    Officiating was definitely questionable.

    BTW, it's not over yet. So pick youself up for a good one all the way to the wire. You choke.

    STFU
    How many times have you seen T-Mac come through in the clutch? He cant do it every game and do it by himself.

    Quit posting the same crap in every damn thread.

    :rolleyes:

    Even Reggie Miller missed some potential game winners in the play-offs, yet is regarded as one of the best in the clutch.

    NOBODY comes up big EVERYtime.

    This is too much whining.

    Instead. Gee. Here's an idea. Why not, at game 6, chant "flopper" EVERY DAMN TIME Nowitzki gets the ball? EVERY TIME. I don't care if he's at half-court. Just do it.

    If I was still in Houston you're damn right I'd do it. I've done it before for 48 minutes, and I hope some of you going to game 6 will do so.

    Duh. Les is not Cuban - no other owner is. JVG has tried to sarcastically make his point, and it hasn't worked.

    It's time to just plain go nuts at a game and yell at the refs for 48 minutes. That's what it's going to take on our (the fans') end.

    Meanwhile, the game is still up to the players... and having enough guts to grab the ball when it matters instead of letting it go out of bounds, cough cough.

    How about we give this guy his money back so he doesn't have to suffer through the team or site's failings any more?

    I'm getting the impression that no one reads a word I type. I'm not saying that the game was called fairly(they rarely are). Tmac commiting a turnover with 6 seconds to go might just have had a little to do with our losing. Lets just hope the trend continues and both teams lose all their home games:D

    Chanting "flopper" every time Flopwitzki gets the ball is an excellent idea! :D

    That is purpose of this thread. We should do something to stop this ****ing ****! Let's make it a fair ground for our players. Why should we fight an uphill battle against the refs night in night out?

    We need to flood it. And please someone with Tivo edit a video clip of Dirk's flops and let's see it spread as widely as possible.

    okay i saw a lot of favorable calls for us..but it was still horrible.
    both sides some outrageous bs calls seriously and yeah just bad

    i wish rockets fans could boycott and not one person show up for a game if like one of the referees come..the bad ones..and like everyone quit watching cuz of the refs..who knows it might happen someday

    seriously it's unfair

    calls mutombo for foul but then mavs moving picks all day
    and then our offensive fouls were cuz they were holding our guys

    Every team in the NBA sees all the bad calls against them, and none of the ones that go against the opponents.

    It is a cop out. Of course Dallas got away with alot, and the Rockets never ever got away with anything. We shot more FT's than they did tonight, and there were missed calls both ways. It might even be that there were more bad calls against the Rockets, but that isn't why we lost, or where the team's focus should be for the future.

    Then we need an automated program to send the emails 100,000 times a day.
