[DrManik]

Holy $#@!.

[Kevin O'Shea]

Jet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CBT]

Jason Terry, real crip

[Mouse Rat]

My prediction: Billups forces something.

[PiGuy]

dont foul dont foul dont foul dont foul dont foul dont foul dont foul

[Kevin O'Shea]

Come on Come on

[PiGuy]

NBA needs better review angles

[Mouse Rat]

All black ref crew is losing their cool

promo for Red Tails?

[longhornsgirl]

Just needs to be said again. JET.

[fellside]

Knew it. Thunder all over again.

[EsTyne]

Gotta. Be. $#@!ing. Joking.

[PiGuy]

twice in a row. damnit

[Kevin O'Shea]

Was that Fisher?

[CBT]

I hate sports

[longhornsgirl]

Twice in a row. This cannot be real life.

[PiGuy]

Mavs should have inbounded immediately up court there

[Kevin O'Shea]

Three pointer

[SniveliusMaximus]

Billups touched the previous out of bounds ball last, just before it hit the ground. Why u no see, refs?

[Skipper]

$#@! sports tonight

[Kevin O'Shea]

$#@! LA

[longhornsgirl]

$#@! life. I'm going to sleep.

[PiGuy]

son of a bitch. that's a hard loss

[EsTyne]

So these 3 losses, yeah we've had huge shots against us, but we've run final plays to Vince Carter, Vince Carter, and Ian Mahimni...

Dirk and JET are still on the $#@!ing team.

[fellside]

God I need baseball season.

[Kevin O'Shea]

Could we have been beaten by two more overrated overshooting veterans this week?

[Jack]

You go to Mahinmi???

[VY_myHero]

It was Mo Williams, but yeah, can't believe no one saw it other than Terry. If I were a Mavs fan I'd be $#@!ing livid about that.... the game was over. Up 1, with the ball, with 5 seconds to go? Game over. Funny how they changed the other challenges correctly but missed the most important one.

[EsTyne]

...that the same spot on the floor Fish hit from? $#@!.

[Kevin O'Shea]

Can we resign Stevenson for these types of moments

[zosostein]

3 losses this early to last second 3s is just crazy.

[SLOTH]

This loss hurts, but this shouldn't even have been a game. Mavs should have ran them out of the gym without Paul. Clippers are pretty bad in the half court offensively with Paul from what I've seen. Without him, it should be a joke.

I was a lot more optimistic with this team when they were 0-3. You let $#@!ty teams play with you like they did last night and stupid $#@! will happen.

[gsoda3]

Kidd has been a net negative the past 2 games. Really bad.

My prediction: Billups forces something.

yeah kidd's been bad since his return. lots of bad decisions and bad execution.

also dirk was sick?

[Skipper]

Maybe we're getting all of the last second losses out of the way now and those shots rim out in the playoffs.

Kidd has played pretty good defense though. His shot has been off all year, although he did hit a big three last night.

Dirk missed the shoot around yesterday due to flu like symptoms (or a head cold depending on who you believe). That, plus him wearing a sleeve on his bad knee, has definitely taken a toll. Especially on his shot. It was also frustrating watching him get man handled underneath. In fairness, blocking Griffin and Jordan is $#@!ing though.

Learn from it, and move on. I think the team is still headed in the right direction.

i think kidd will be fine. he started off last year playing not that well either but turned it on when it counted.

Is threesheets gonna have to rock ice?

The team has also collaborated with Jostens to create a collection of jewelry and collectibles for Mavs fans and season ticket holders to celebrate and remember the team's first NBA championship. The collection will be available on Wednesday, January 25th immediately following the pre-game ceremony. The collections will feature over 30 unique items, including items that can be customized and personalized with fan names and messaging. These items will be available online, over the phone or in person at select home games during the months of January and February. More information on how to view and purchase these items will be sent via email January 25th following the ring celebration.

If any of you fools want to go to the ring ceremony, there are still some tickets left:

Good news:

How is that good news, as far as Dallas is concerned? Or are you being sarcastic and I'm way off?

[longhornsgirl]

That's what I told myself last night. Lets be hopeful.

[threesheets]

Nah, I'm being serious. OKC would be a much better team if they had a facilitator, rather than a temperamental knucklehead that likes to fill it up. Don't get me wrong- he's a very good player. I just don't see him guiding a team to a championship anytime soon. Like several years, if ever.

I probably shouldn't have posted that in this thread btw. Not trying to threadjack.

[threesheets]

Oh, and see my earlier post in this thread- I fully admit that I might be deluding myself. It's just my personal opinion.

[CBT]

We still love you.

[VY_myHero]

I am just in shock that only 1 shaggy Mavs fan seemed to actually notice the fact that Mo Williams clearly touched the ball last during the inbound with 5 secs left. What the hell? That was huge. Literally cost the Mavs a win. I mean, I'd be bitching bigtime about such a call for either my Longhorns or Spurs. Did you guys really just say "$#@! it" when it happened or did you just not see it?

I RT'd someone that noticed it too. Went back after and slowed down the replay and got pissed. then drank more and passed out.

[RexWilson]

Mavs at Utah tonight. Game is on TNT. Hopefully Dallas has some energy. Game 2 of a back to back and the team has been on the road for several days.

[threesheets]

I think we all thought the call probably wouldn't end up $#@!ing us. Then Chauncy ("that muffuckin $#@!got ass Chauncy" for you Menace II Society fans) hits that shot and you kind of resign yourself- like they deserved it. Who the $#@! knows. It's like, "ok, hopefully we won't get beat by a last second three every night of the $#@!ing playoffs."

[threesheets]

Nice trash bags Miami is sporting tonight. $#@! those are terrible.

it looked 50/50 to me. they slowed it down and replayed it from different angles like 5 times and there was no clear evidence showing who touched it last. all it showed was williams had the ball, then jet touched it sending the ball flying at a different angle- there's no clear footage showing what happened after jet touched it. i think without hard evidence you shouldn't overturn the call.

[gsoda3]

CJ Miles just posterized lamar odom.
