NBA playoffs Mavs vs Spurs

I wouldn't call what Ginobili does "flopping" so much as he throws his body around with reckless abandon. He's always kind of out of control when he drives the lane, so when he leaves his feet he's at crazy angles and he falls as a result of that, or if he gets a slight amount of contact he falls over because he's already on the verge of falling over to begin with.

He gets some calls because of that, and he uses that to his advantage as he should. But by and large I think the refs have gotten used to his style and he doesn't get many of those calls anymore.

Then again, I'm a Spurs fan so I'm obviously biased, but I don't see it as him faking it... I think the fearless, reckless, out-of-control drives are just his style of play and part of what makes him so much fun to watch.

He's a flopper. No matter how light the contact he acts like Shaq just ran him over. :bow:
 
Dangit ..... I do not have NBA access anymore and its not coming on TNT!

I am gonna miss the Spurs finishing them off.

:D
 
Stuck in Austin, have to listen to these ridiculously biased commentators on FSN Southwest...augh..

At least the Mavs are leading...for now.

Check the FSN alternate channel. 441 on Dish Network if you have that.

These guys are unbearable. I'm having to watch them an hour from the metroplex. FSN has the Rangers on and TNT has Lakers.

These guys have taken on the identity of the Spurs.
 
Not missing much Zrin. I think we're going to have to close this one out at home.
 
Great showing by the Mavs tonight. Hopefully they can do it two more times.
 
well if we were gonna lose tonight this is the absolute best way to do it, Pop will get have their attention in practice and they will come out with fire in game 6. The spurs always come back strong after getting beat down in a playoff game (only time i can remember them not doing so was from game 3 to 4 in the 05 finals)


mark this down, i GUARANTEE the spurs win game 6
 
Wow ..... that got ugly quick.

Grats Mavs ..... you showed heart tonight.

its much better than losing a heartbreaker, spurs will be ready for game 6
 
I was so badly off on my prediction for this series, but I'm not one to learn my lesson so I'll predict a game 7 win for the Mavs if they can get it to 7.

Just underestimated the winners...now time to recapture the home court advantage.
 
I said Spurs in 6 from the beginning so I'll stick with that.

Spurs always seem to have one turd game like this every series.

If they lose game 6, though, they're in big trouble.
 
The only hope the Mavs have in winning this series is to beat the Spurs at home, in an elimination game, after just beating the snot out of them.

The mavs better walk in that gym with the same fire and fight that they had at home. If they walk in cocky with this we can win here attitude, or this we're not scared of them, they can't beat us, BS, they will lose. the Mavs are known for getting cocky, and then getting beaten like a drum (Finals 06? Mavs, Vs GS? ..etc...etc)
