Don't feel too bad. I'm not "with" the times either. You just admitted it before I did. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

[DEAD4SUREAGAIN]

Can anybody tape the game and let me know....Im at work right now....all night....

[EricaLubarsky]

I'm recording it...once I figure out how to make copies faster than real-time I'll offer even non-friends.

[MavsFanFinley]

I'm watching the Warriors station and they announced that Speedy Claxton is out tonight and that Fisher may have to go the whole game. I doubt that when Dunleavy can handle some minutes there.

[EricaLubarsky]

Dunleavy has the smarts to be a point guard- he knows how to run an offense, but man.....Harris and Terry could probably tear his ball handling apart.

[EricaLubarsky]

"Eddie Jordan and the Wizards"...

ouch! Jamison might have a problem with that.

Harris just torches the entire GSW team!

[Murphy3]

What's fin doing? 2 teammates open and he forces up a contested jumper...then dirk forces a shot in the lane..brilliant.

[cheesestar]

harris's got it going early

[EricaLubarsky]

Man Murph is smothering Dirk.

[MavsFanFinley]

Ugh.

I hate Fisher.

I knew the first game I get to watch and Fin's laying an egg a bit.

[EricaLubarsky]

8-0 run. Wow we need to get some shots for Howard and Dirk.

[DEAD4SUREAGAIN]

Thank you Erika......

[Murphy3]

I love seeing the Mavs not run any of the offense through the big German. You'd think they would have figured it out by now. That's my biggest worry is that they forget who the offensive star is when things get tight because they're used to running the offense through whoever when the game's not close.

[Bayliss]

The should post Dirk against Murph in the high post and let him have the option of driving, shooting, or passing.

(But I hate him standing at the 3 point line.)

[EricaLubarsky]

Damp reacts to me I guess, and Nowitzki reacts to Murphy3

[Murphy3]

The Mavs just aren't playing intelligent ball.

[EricaLubarsky]

Damp is great. Damp is Great. Damp is Great.

[MavsFanFinley]

At least 3 of Finley's missed attempts have been from attacking the basket.

Harris is just too quick and had he made that layup attempt, I would have screamed.

Nice defense by Stack on Richardson.

[Murphy3]

You're right MFF. On one, he was a bit out of control and he took an ill advised jumper with a man right in his jock with two Mavs open. But yeah, I don't mind see him going to the lane.

[Bayliss]

Devin Harris needs to create for others and quit shooting so much. (I don't mind him shooting, but he needs to start dishing more.)

[Murphy3]

Dear God, Dirk, ....make the good pass.

[EricaLubarsky]

Man, is it cold in the arena? No one can catch a pass.

Down by 11...Im not worrying yet after last night, but sheesh it aint fun watching.

[dirkisgod]

Well it looks like the ol ball hog mike finley wants desperatly to be the point leader on this team.

Once again our star dirk is ignored by the pg's and by ball hog finley.

I knew this would be a problem with the "brothas" sticking together. Nash knew what was up and always found dirk.

this is bullshit

[Murphy3]

There goes GS's lead. Najera's in the game.

[MavsFanFinley]

We're getting our asses kicked, but that was a nice standing O for Najera.

are you watching the game? That is not the opinion I get from watching Harris. He's only taken one ill-advised shot so far.

[Murphy3]

Run the offense through Dirk. Dirk can either shoot over him or drive around him if he gets in Dirk's face.

Are you serious?

[Cybertx]

najera is playing 3, he doesn't play 4 at gs

[Bayliss]

They look like they haven't realized the game has started.

[MavsFanFinley]

There has been a few defensive lapses, but the Warriors are just making the shots with a hand in the face or a guy flying out at him.

Which is ok. They're likely to cool off at some point.

[MavsFanFinley]

Look at Bradley diving on the floor.

Stackhouse and Howard have made a couple nice shots.

I still hate Fisher.

[grndmstr_c]

What the hell is going on?

Well this is a tad offensive.

Yep, Bradley's busting his @ss and Ortegal is there squirting in his pants over Najera.

[HexNBA]

yeah..that was pitiful

[Bayliss]

Offensively, it looked bad. But it was defense is what killed them. (As much as the fans here griped about Dirk's "touches" he still shot 5-6 times.

The Mavs need to put pressure on Fisher and make them earn their points. There was no pressure at all that quarter.
