Dallas Mavericks vs Portland Trail Blazers Series Thread

[Rick Modena]

I've been done with the NBA since 2006, I have not been to a Mavs game since 2006 and I have not bought anything NBA since either, fuck'em...

Wasn't a true fan then. Fans stick with their team through thick and thin. Heck, I am a huge Stars fan. Look where they have gone lately, not even to the playoffs.

Maybe he wasn't but he has been on the fence since the 2006 thing. Think about it, he has seen them go through their entire existence and it is one beating after another. From losing to the Lakers in the 80's, to totally sucking in the 90's. he has seen it all and is fed up.

I have gotten fed up with the league itself. I am begining to believe games some games are fixed.

Man, this game is a prime example of why it is so hard to be a mavs fan. They show you how good they really are one quarter, and then completely crumble the next. My dad, who has been a fan for as long as they have been here, is actually done with them.

If they go out in the 1st round, I think a whole lot of people are done with them, the ones that haven't left already. Having Chandler in the middle is their best chance to do anything. Once he's gone, so is the window. Cuban would have to bring in the likes of KG or Dwight Howard...umm, a superstar to rekindle the interest after another 1st round out.

Only thing that would bring players and fans would be Phil Jackson.

I expect a pissed off dirk tonight.

More inportantly officials on the mavs side therefore a victory.

So I'm watching the pregame on NBA TV right now, but if I pan over to 7:30, it says the game is blacked out here. WTF?

Upn 21

Can Kidd not dunk anymore? He passed on 2 free opportunities.

Keep passig really low to chandler and shove it down their throats. Dont let him dribble though since they call everything a charge

[momo]

Why the fuck can neither Jason pass anymore?

[momo]

Keep passing in deep to chandler Marion and dirk. Kidd and Terry doing pick and rolls at the three point line aint going to fly.

[DeddRekoning]

Portland's defense on passes has been good throughout the series and yes, keep going to the rim no matter who it is

[mustang_marc]

I like the Mavs determination to get to the hoop in the 1st half. If they keep that up in the 2nd half, it should serve them well.
