<<Does anyone notice all the griping and whining that Dirk and Nash do anytime they miss a shot. It's like they want the ref to bail them out every time. Not good. Not good at all.>>
<<A lot of the Mavs whine about calls and I'm getting frustrated about it. ...Work over the ref LATER, at a dead ball - they're more perceptive when the game isn't going on and FAR less likely to call a technical.>>
Yeah. And I think part of this goes back to Nellie--as great a coach as he is, he's always been a screamer with the officials. But surely, he felt (feels?) the distraction when Cuban gets too involved with the officials from the stands.
Can't teach an old dog new tricks, but somehow you haveta hope Nellie sees how is team is prone to unravel when things get too emotional, and hope he realizes that as the team leader and most respected team figure, HE sets the tone--not only for the players, but for Cuban as well.
Whoa, Nellie.
