GDT: Game 3, Spurs @ Mavs 4/23 7:30 CST

FWIW, I was in the arena and I really liked the conetti. Its not like we are the only ones doing it, and I think it really adds to the excitement and playoff atmosphere. Granted, it would've been much cooler if it had followed a really close game rather than a blowout.

And if it's 3-1 Dallas, then the 1st 4 games meant something because someone has a lead. If it's 2-2 tie, then those first 4 games were a wash and you start all over in a best of 3.

I'm not downplaying this win at all. But seriously, I won't be satisfied unless they win game 4 along with this win. Ask anyone, that is all that is acceptable really at this point. You have to take advantage when you get a series lead, something they did not do in game 2 at all.

I completely understand what you're saying, and I agree. All I'm saying is that you shouldn't feel like the thing is over if the Mavs lose Game 4. They could very easily go out to Game 5 in SA and win that one.

I expect the Mavs to come out strong but not mighty strong ! Win game 4, go Mavs !

It was oddly quiet here last night.

Game one got 1000 posts in a big hurry.

Everyone was probably out getting drunk and celebrating.

Yes I think they could easily do that but this year's team is not a good road team, even though they won game 1. But don't wake a sleeping giant. Get them down 3-1. If they are 2-2 going back home, it's going to be tough. It definitely won't be over but i want the 3-1 lead like we had back in 2006.

And yes, I noticed that, too. This GDT was really low on posts compared to other games. Even regular season games. Maybe people were at the game or it got so out of hand, it wasn't worth talking about. I know after Pop pulled his starters and made it boring, I was just praying for the game to end as fast as possible and have no injuries at all.

Mavs 217, Spurs 5 (all by George Hill in garbage time)

You know, I think I had the closest prediction, oddly.

when you are winning by 40 points, there shouldn't even be any posts in a GDT.
