The Official GDT/Game One Of The 2009 NBA Playoffs/Mavericks vs Spurs (7:00 CT)

[tcat075]

Last night, I dreamed Josh Howard was ruled out of todays game.

Then I woke up, realized it was a nightmare, and remembered that today we're going to kick some SAS butt, and felt a lot better.



(And for the superstitious, my dreams have never come true (I wish some had... ) so don't worry about Josh.)

5) 106-98 Mavs

This is kinda like an over-under.

[tcat075]

Yeah, its kinda like an over/under. Why did we stop doing those? I think it had something to do with bad mojo?

edit: The space between 4 and 5 wasn't so that it would look like the over/under, though. I just thought I'd separate the game prediction from the stat predictions.

[tcat075]

Reasons why I hate Bruce Bowen.

1) He plays dirty.

2) Takes a "shooting foul" to the extreme.

3) Acts innocent.

4) Gets away with blatant fouls.

5) Tries to injure players.

[esoteric562]

[fluid.forty.one]

home from work... I couldn't be more excited for this game.

[candid_snoop41]

CHicago says "Its upset-day"...lets take game 1.

Lebron is going off like usual. He will get a TD tonight. He is such a beast

[Dirkadirkastan]

Dallas had the fifth fewest free throw attempts this season.

But San Antonio was dead last.

[jthig32]

So I'm going to be at the Ranger game tonight. Bought tickets for the family a month ago.

I figure there's zero chance I make it home from there without hearing updates, right?

So taking a radio is probably the way to go?

[Rick41]

Thank god i have weekends off, i'm so excited for this beat down!

[AxdemxO]

Gotta work tonite : (

But all be able to catch the later games..

Soo for now GO MAVS : )

I'd think so. I wouldn't be surprised if the PA announcer himself gave some updates? I think it'll be impossible to avoid, in any case.

I hope we can get this win, Kidd should definetely try to post up TP. Dirk and Jet have to try their best not too settle for too many jumpers. And we need Josh to play 2006esque. It would be nice to also see a little bit of Bass vs Duncan. Im sure Bass can make Duncan work at the defensive end.

[ShaggyDirk]

This day can't be any better. Star Wars all day on Spike, Lord of the Rings all day on TNT, Mavericks tonight... The only thing that would make it better is Band of Brothers on the history channel....and of course a W.

I hope your cat suffers minimal gloom this post season.

[AxdemxO]

THE JET SAYS BRING IT : )

But these days, Mavericks guard Jason Terry can't seem to turn on his TV without being reminded of the general consensus of where Dallas is now in the pecking order.


"It feels disrespectful when you watch these shows, TNT, ESPN, and they're talking, 'Walk through the Mavericks, that's who you want to play," Terry said. "OK. We'll see if that's who you want to play."


GO MAVS

[WraithXx]

whoever doesn't work M-F 9-5 needs to smack themselves across the face.

Sorry but I just have to point out that if Dirk was going for the dunk there. I am more than sure that it didnt go down... : )

[AxdemxO]

IMO you put Wright on TP and play Kidd on the sg and let him roam. That would be the way to do on D : )

[tcat075]

Come on guys, only 2 pages and an hour and a half before start...
