yeah, I'm a loser for checking, i know.

You mean, Cubs is member of that twitter community and just posted a message via cell phone?

Sportstudi · 03-29-2009, 02:03 PM

I even don't know why I'm still watching this crap.

Yes, and I believe he got fined for twitting during the Denver game and complaining about a no-call on J.R. Smith.

Don't know, I was just in the mood to use some irony...

Szerbiak just shot/caught/and carried the ball out of bounds and they got the ball back?

mavsjunkie · 03-29-2009, 02:06 PM

If we're ever going to get a couple of super star game breakers on the mavs, we need to blow this unit up completely, be one of the worst in the league for 2 or 3 years, get a great pick, hopefully top 2 pick, and get a couple of real stars here.

Other than that, we'll continue to tease the fans with these outstanding victories over horrible teams, and be fooled into thinking we're a great team.

Ever since we got rid of Diop the first time, then got rid of Harris and Avery Johnson, we've basically been a prick-tease team.

STJessie1984 · 03-29-2009, 02:06 PM

cavs blow us by 130 if they go on like this..

Sportstudi · 03-29-2009, 02:06 PM

I think Dirk shot the ball just 6 times in the second half.

They got the ball back because Hollin's blocked the crap out of the ball. Hollins is fun to watch.

He's the only reason i'm even still watching this. The starters out there can't even compete with the Cavs bench.

tcat075 · 03-29-2009, 02:09 PM

Damp and Green have the highest +/-'s.

JET and Dirk have the lowest.

Just 3 steals. Total of 4 Cavs TO's.

Damp has as many points as JET on 5 less shots.

OK, modern technique is his business.

Lor20 · 03-29-2009, 02:09 PM

dirk and jet shooting badly really shows how crappy our team is otherwise....
only 2 ppl who can score consistently (normally) is just not good enough...

Same here. Hollins and Green are the only reason I'm still watching.

One of the turning points, I believe, is when Damp sat the entire 2nd quarter. I love Hollins. Love his energy and hustle. But Damp was really very effective in the first quarter.

Dtownsfinest · 03-29-2009, 02:12 PM

Damn Green. Letting Wally beat you off the dribble is a all time low.

NYMAVGUY · 03-29-2009, 02:14 PM

I'm very impressed by Cleveland. I think they might take it all. I was one of those guys who thought lebron was a little over-rated. But he might make the other players around him better than any other player in the NBA.

Yea and Green as well. He's not looking too good out there but I atleast like to see him play.

mmmfast · 03-29-2009, 02:16 PM

So, I showed up late here. I guess the Mavs never came out of the locker room for the 2nd half?

I liked Diop. I thought he was intimidating.

I disagree. Hollins was the right way to go because you knew Mo and Bron were going to start attacking the rack. Not to mention he had 3 fouls in the 2nd. But what Damp did good in that 1st half is the same exact thing Hollins could've offered if given the chance. All Damp did was get dunks handed to him by Kidd. I think about 2 or 3 of those dunks came of pick and rolls but Hollins could've offered the same.

His TO was bad (I don't know, its possible JJ wasn't in the correct bail-out spot?), and his defense was exposed once or twice, but he's not taking stupid shots and is moving the ball around.

Hollins has shown some a few nice post shots that have just rimmed out. Don't know what happened on JJ's pass that sailed out of bounds. Was Hollins not looking? Or was he held and the refs missed it?

Getting fined for twitting is BULLSHIT!

Dtownsfinest · 03-29-2009, 02:20 PM

Hollin's is a freak.

GermanDunk · 03-29-2009, 02:20 PM

Question : Is there an after show programm on the radio, like TheTicket or so ? Would be interesting what Rick has got to say.

mmmfast · 03-29-2009, 02:21 PM

Hollins broadcasts his moves, you can see where he is going to go long before he makes a move.

They didn't REALLY come out for the 2nd QUARTER, it just wasn't as noticeable because we had a lead.

antoinewalker · 03-29-2009, 02:22 PM

that was a nice take by green.

mmmfast · 03-29-2009, 02:23 PM

Sad, I heard the announcers say we had a 15pt lead at one point.

Dtownsfinest · 03-29-2009, 02:23 PM

Hollins has to quit going for the ESPN highlight and make the smarter decision which would've been a lay-in.

ESPN Radio has a horrible post game show.

tcat075 · 03-29-2009, 02:24 PM

That was a great block...Hollins was only being held as he went up by his defender with the defender's other hand...

Its true. We ended the half with a 2 point lead.

mmmfast · 03-29-2009, 02:25 PM

Looked like a bear hug followed by a block followed by bs.

That hurts, Cavs were sure to be tough at home but this team has no onions.

Yes. It went downhill from there. The Cavs made a great run to cut it into 2 at half time. Then the Mavs came out flat in the 2nd half. No energy at all.

Yea I thought that was great until I saw the replay. It was. I don't think it effected Hollin's dunk. He was grabbing him before he went up. Great block nonetheless. I wonder why Hickson doesn't get more pt anyway. I guess they're just waiting for Ben Wallace's departure whether its from retirement or wherever.

Bayliss · 03-29-2009, 02:29 PM

Well, this game was a shocker. Hopefully Phx wins tonight against Sacramento. This type of game is what Mav fans will see against the Lakers.
