Boston's announcers are worse than Sean Elliott at his worst. That's pretty bad.

And my word Boston is choking this one away.

LetsGoMavs · 01-05-2011, 09:57 PM

lol @ Tommy Heinsohn going nuts

mavs777 · 01-05-2011, 09:58 PM

Boston wins, thank god

sefant77 · 01-05-2011, 10:00 PM

Tommy is such a blind senil guy, i cant listen to him.

Boston did really everything possible to choke it away. I saw allready a Gino three and the Spurs sneaking out with another lucky win. They had allready so much this season, specially with other players sitting their games out...

LetsGoMavs · 01-05-2011, 10:02 PM

Gotta give Rondo props, he sure is a freaking beast of a point guard - now if he would be able to develop a reliable jumpshot... .

xrobx · 01-05-2011, 10:53 PM

12 pts 10 rebs 22 asts 6 steals...

thank you, based rondo

gotta love every spurs loss

LonghornDub · 01-05-2011, 11:00 PM

Utah gonna lose to the Hawks by a lot. Mavs are gaining on the Spurs and maintaining their ground over the rest of the West, somehow, despite the catastrophic injuries.

mavs777 · 01-06-2011, 12:34 AM

Utah is the same team every year

mavs777 · 01-06-2011, 12:37 AM

Odom looks pretty seriously injured

nashtymavsfan13 · 01-06-2011, 03:26 AM

-Great line by Rondo tonight, triple double along with 22 assists! Loving the recent losses by the Spurs.

-Blake Griffin with his 22nd straight double double, 22-18-7 tonight.

-Kevin Martin with 45 points and 6 threes in a losing effort tonight.

-Kevin Love with his 5th 30-15 game of the season, with 35 points 15 boards 5 assists

-Slam Dunk contest participants announced: Blake Griffin, Serge Ibaka, Brandon Jennings, Javale McGee....I didn't even know Jennings could dunk hahaha

DMOC · 01-06-2011, 09:01 AM

I'm surprised at Jennings in the contest. I didn't know he was a prolific dunker.

LonghornDub · 01-07-2011, 08:46 PM

Psycho T is whipping the Spurs. 20 and 11 through less than 3 quarters.

LetsGoMavs · 01-07-2011, 09:19 PM

Choke alert at Conseco Fieldhouse...wow!

mavs777 · 01-07-2011, 09:25 PM

LOL Duncan just got a T in a big part of the game.

You can clearly tell what Pop said to Duncan: That is bad, use your head, then touches his own head

LetsGoMavs · 01-07-2011, 09:29 PM

WTF are the Pacers doing on offense...?

mavs777 · 01-07-2011, 09:29 PM

no touches to granger?

He has been horrible all game long...and just missed two clutch free-throws.

They should give it to Mike "Mr.Clutch" Dunleavy

Kante · 01-07-2011, 09:33 PM

Bailout call!

GermanDunk · 01-07-2011, 09:35 PM

Shut up, Manu

dalger · 01-07-2011, 09:35 PM

Good Lord, the Pacers did all they can to give that one away. Then again, it looks like the Spurs have finally come down to earth and struggle a bit even with a healthy team.

LetsGoMavs · 01-07-2011, 09:36 PM

That last Pacers possession...nothing but utter fail:

Haha Heat !

nashtymavsfan13 · 01-08-2011, 01:45 AM

Another loss for the Jazz, and Wesley Matthews had a huge night for the Blazers!

mavs777 · 01-08-2011, 03:29 AM

I like Mathews, giving a big F U To the Jazz this year

sefant77 · 01-08-2011, 02:48 PM

I really hope the Spurs eating up all their luck allready before the playoffs.

They are playing constantly teams with important players sitting out and several times teams performed an incredible choke act in the 4th (2xWolfes, Pacers...). Of course the Spurs played often great in the 4th, coming back but the choking was even bigger...

Dont count on luck as a finite or infinite commodity.

Every team has fortuitous circumstances, and misfortune. It's what you do with it that matters. There have been several times where Duncan, Parker, or Ginobili have been injured going into the playoffs...you just have to play the cards you're dealt, and do the best you can with what comes your way.

There isn't a single NBA championship team who hasn't had their share of good luck, even if it's just avoiding an injury to a key player. Imagine the Bulls of the 90s trying to win if Jordan or Pippen go down.

BGMaverick9 · 01-09-2011, 06:48 PM

Looks like the Melo deal is close to happening, whether Detroit is involved or not...
It's blowing up on twitter, ESPN and Yahoo

BGMaverick9 · 01-09-2011, 06:52 PM

There is an outside chance Dallas jumps in the mega-deal but they would just be a bridge to help NJ and DEN out, Dallas could get a big (Petro) but it's still unknown...

Kante · 01-09-2011, 08:07 PM

Guess what happens when the Spurs played the Wolves right now? Beasley goes down, this luck is getting hilarious!

GermanDunk · 01-09-2011, 08:28 PM

Holy Moses. Carmelo would turn the Mavericks into Hell. I am a big fan.

Only guys I want from Denver are Billups and Nene, honestly. Melo and Smith are nuts, the rest are scrubs.

Yes, that´s the prob with most professional athletes. They are either nuts or scrubs.

twistaeffect2004 · 01-09-2011, 08:30 PM

Man, that's a monster trade right there.

Melo, Billups and Rip to Jersey? That team has become interesting to watch all of a sudden.

Kante · 01-09-2011, 08:33 PM

And Love also down for the Wolves, owh man... Spurs are just so damn lucky!

He is back, ok.

Does Anthony sign a new contract at NJ or not?

Apparently yes...adding Rip apparently goes a long way for Melo

Which is odd because it isn't 2004 anymore. i mean Rip's ok at this point but he was playing with Afflalo in Dnever who at this point is probably just as good. Not to mention the rest of the team. I guess his agent's got it all worked out for the future...

The problem with Denver is people won't want to come there as free agents and it sounds like there owner is a bit cheap. I think Carmello just wants to be competitive early and he understands that, but he thinks eventually Jersey can get a second star there

Poor carmelo...he should actually hold out for the knicks..that's what he wants and he won't be happy until he gets there.

Kante · 01-09-2011, 09:07 PM

OK.

Talk about luck: Bogut will maybe miss the game against the Spurs on Wednesday i just read, wow...
