[SA_Gunslinger]

highly entertaining basketball.

What a total collapse.

What a total collapse.

15-0 run to end the game....nutty.

should make for a fun game 6.

 

[zrinkill]

That was a great game .... to bad it got ugly at the end ...

I have never seen so many players get ejected for clapping or laughing as they have this year.

I bet the NBA will do something about that in the offseason.

Instead of just playing their game they tried to run clock in the half court game and that killed them. Stephen Jackson takes some of the worst shots i've seen.

Is the next game at GS?

The refs were definately key down the stretch. No call on Dirk when he fouled Richardson on that last 3. No call on Dirk bumping and going over the back on Barnes on the missed free throw. The phantom call on Davis in the back court against Howard. The game should be decided by the players, not the refs.

You really don't think it's only the clapping that is getting these guys thrown out do you?

Yea I dont think they are cussing or anything ..... they are clapping in a mocking manner and the refs are feeling like they are being mocked.

I dont think that affected the game ..... Dirk finally waking up and the Warriors relying on Davis to much is why the Mavs won ....

It was a great game by both teams till the Warriors fell apart at the end.

Give me a #^%&#($@ break. If I had come in here saying this I would have been crucified as a whiner and/or crybaby. For every no call you got, I could name at least one that went the other way.

The Mavs finally finished a game strong. And you see the difference.

As for GS... I've never seen a dirtier, more classless bunch of cheap shotting, taunting, lowlife, gangbanging thugs. I've lost all respect I had for Don Nelson, and that's saying a lot. To quote a great movie, "attitude reflects leadership," and I've never seen a worse attitude in a team. In their two losses in this series, Jackson has been thrown out. Baron was thrown out once and fouled out tonight.

I don't know how this series is going to go from here, nor do I pretend to. But if GS wins, the *******ization of the NBA will be complete.

Oh and.... GS shot damn near 60% on threes for 45 minutes... that's unheard of.

guess you didn't see terry tonight, huh?

Yeah I saw it... it was exaggerated by Baron Davis flopping on the floor.

 

[SA_Gunslinger]

it doesn't make me respect your obsevations when you rant about golden state and then give the worst thing on the floor tonight a pass.

at least man up and say that was no less a punk move than anything that has come out of GS.

 

[SlwSVT]

Attitude reflects leadership? Coming from the team with the worst whiny, complaining, his team never does wrong owner. You hit that nail on the head! Your right about the thugs, especially considering Terry's take down for no apparent reason. But, is this not the same Terry who hit Finley in the nuts in last years playoffs? Stackhouse technical at halftime and was not even in the game at the end of the half. Or the same team that got 3 T's in a 5 minute period in game 4, cause they were getting spanked?

 

[zrinkill]

Dallas played a great first and last part of the game .....

Warriors played great in coming back from a 20+ point deficit .....

The Mavs won because Dirk finally played like he supposed to at the end of the game and the Warriors let the Mavs take Baron Davis out of the game.

The refs only affected the game because the Warriors lost their composure.

No excuses ..... the Mavs played better when it mattered tonight.

Grats Mav Fans ...... you deserve to be proud tonight.

From what I saw, Terry lost his balance. Maybe I need to see the replay again, but I don't have Tivo. I guess the NBA will have a say if they thought it was dirty.

If this means anything, what are they talking about on Inside the NBA?? They're not talking about Terry, they're talking about Jackson. If it was as bad as you make it out, that would be the lead story. Terry didn't get thrown out for it, I know that.

he definitely threw him down. honestly, i'm shocked it hasn't garned more attention thus far, but i won't be surprised if the league reacts, especially given his past.

that said, the warriors are being sore losers. i agree.

1) Mark Cuban is not the leadership of that team, no matter how much he wishes he was. It's Avery. Got any complaints about him? Didn't think so.

2) I already talked about Terry.

3) Did you evern see what Stackhouse did? Cause I didn't. The camera angle didn't show anything. I'm sure he was mouthing, but everyone does that. I do know that the Mavs aren't taunting the bench after every made basket. Can't say that for Jackson. How many Mavs have been thrown out this series?

How do you know definitively what happened? From my first impression, Terry lost his balance and was trying to hold himself up and his arm hit Baron in the neck. Baron made it look a lot worse. Again, we'll see what the NBA says, and I'd like to see a replay, but that's my impression.

just watch the replay. it's pretty obvious. both hands.

Whether you like it or not, Mark Cuban is the leadership. He owns the team and signs the paychecks. He has the ability to can Avery (I am a great regular season coach, but have not won anything yet) Johnson at will. But, your point is Jackson is the thug, classless player. But, he is just one player, he is not the coach, nor the owner. You should really be looking at how much heart Jackson, Davis and a few other Warriors have. If the Mavs, had that kind of leadership, we would not even be talking about this series.
