78.3 % From The Line Regular Season

[TwoDeep3]

69.8 in this game.

This is why they lost.

Uncontested shots and they shoots almost 9% less made baskets in this game.

Doesn't matter about the refs calling fouls for Duncan.

Or Bowen not getting called on his mugging people.

This came down to one fact.

Dallas choked at the line.

Make those shots, this is a different game.

[Dortmund]

We lost because we started playing into the Spurs hands by playing one on one basketball. And Dirk played like a vagina after the first quarter.

[Drbio]

I knew.

TwoDeep would show.

Up after a loss because.

He only.

Does that when.

We lose a game.

He enjoys it when we.

Lose and the.

Loser mentality pervades.

In his soul.

[TwoDeep3]

Shoot the season average and they hit 23 free throws instead of 19.

Think that might have changed the outcome?

[TwoDeep3]

Don't dispute the facts, Bio.

And I do not enjoy us losing.

Nor do I show up only after we lose.

But you don't want to talk basketball. Like you suggested in the Spyrs thread.

You want to ridicule.

Pretty weak, buttercup.

Or do facts get in the way of your rant?

[Drbio]

I very much.

recognized the fact.

that you only come here.

when we lose

and you revel in the.

losses that the Mavs.

participate in and your.

posting style suck ass.

I and others.

would chat with you about.

about basketball.

but we are waiting.

for your first.

cognizant post.

Thank.

you very little.

Hmm, my last post before today was the night we beat the Grizz in the sweep.

How did that work.

Or that I hate losing to the Spurs.

But you won't talk facts. You only want to pout and call names.

They have a name for this.

Loser.

[Drbio]

Y.

A.

W.

N.

This is the.

Best that we.

Can hope for.

from the idiocy that is well.

known as.

Two.

Deep, also.

Please take a course.

In.

Sentence structure.

and comprehension.

for the love of.

God.

You write incoherently.

because of.

incompetence.

You never finish a sentence.

properly because of.

a lack of discipline.

[TwoDeep3]

And still you cannot dispute the fact that they shot under their season average from the line. And that fact may have cost them the game.

[rabbitproof]

This does not deserve its own thread. What is there to discuss?

[Drbio]

Did I ever say they didn't? Of course not. You love to try to start shit like that but it won't work. Feel free to make that quote where I said we shot over our season average. You can't?

Shocker!

Well no...it's not really. Just another example of nothing in TwoDeep's bag.

[TwoDeep3]

There is a reason this board sits still and has little action.

Board police and losers who bitch about posts is mostly the reason.

There is nothing to discuss except for TwoDeep's enjoyment of losing and committment to whining. In his post above he even wraps up the lack of a point by stating that "And that fact may have cost them the game" (referring to shooting lower at the line).

Is there a point that a third grader wouldn't get here?

If you had only not hit the return between sentences......*sigh*.

[Dtownsfinest]

We lost because we got outplayed on both sides of the ball and the other team's best player showed up while ours didn't. There's not much too why we lost. We got outplayed. This will be fixed by next game and we will see a different type of effort from the good guys.

[knash999]

Wait a second. So we got outplayed at both ends. Dirk was shut down. Our 2nd best scorer couldn't hit anything, Duncan was dominant.
And yet we only lost with 2 points against the defending champion?
Wow, the sky must be falling.
I'm sick and tired of all these wimpy kneejerking, wanna-be fans.
WE WILL COME BACK STRONG ON TUESDAY AND WIPE THEIR SISSY FACES IN DUNCAN'S DIARRHEA. F* THE SPURS!

[Drbio]

For someone who professes to be a paid sportwriter, TwoDeep sure misses the point huh? Sounds a lot like rcf used to sound in fact.

[aexchange]

i actually agree with twodeep here.

which is why im shocked that so many fans around here are jumping off the bandwagon. we make our ft's normally, the guy's decided in our favor.

[Drbio]

To say that free throw shooting is the only reason we lost today is pure stupidity which is what he is driving at. That is ridiculous.

[Dtownsfinest]

As if guy's don't miss free throws in the playoffs. This is the postseason. Not the regular season so throw the free throw stats from the regular season out the window. Its two different playing fields.

lol. they play with a different ball or a different goal?

LOL.

doc, i wasn't saying that was the only reason. but it was a significant reason. dirk hits 2 ft's that he normally doesnt miss, we're looking at the mavs trying to win the game on the last possession instead of trying to tie it.

[Locked_Up_Tonight]

Maybe it's because these Mavs fans fans saw the same damn shit in the playoffs aagainst the Suns. They had the chance to close out the game and blew it. Maybe these Mav fans are so damn sick of the Mavs "coming up short" that they want them to win so f'n bad that it f'n hurts when they lose not because of what the Spurs did but they lost because of their own incompentence. That is what hurts. The Mavs beat the Mavs today. AGAIN. Just like Game 6 last year.

So it may be a little hard to muster up faith when you see the same damn thing right in front of your eyes again.

But then again some other Mav fans call those Mavs not true Mav fans because they don't believe.

I feel like a g*d damn Red Sox fan. Unfortantely for me, at least the g*d damn Red Sox got to win it all.

It is a part without question. None disputes that. TwoDeep, enjoying the latest loss, claimed it was the ONLY reason we lost. That is wrong.

The Mavs 04-05 in the regular season: 78.9%
In the playoffs: 78.6%

[Usually Lurkin]

The mavs probably shoot below their average about half the time.

and shoot above their average the other half... one of those glass half empty types?

Now with regards to W/L, the Mavs won 73.2% of their games in the regular season... i'd be fine if we kept up that winning percentage in the playoffs.

[Usually Lurkin]

It would be so great if the mavs would shoot at or above their average on every game. maybe if that could happen, I'd pass my math test.
