Rose looks like he's hurt badly. it also looks like he got hurt while FLOPPING.

also, Spurs fans shouldn't be booing Nowitzki for driving the basket, the Spurs should have called the Time out when they had the ball OR FOUL BEFORE he drove.

any team who can make 45 of 46 free throws and still lose the game must really suck! :Q

49 total, out of 50. The most incredible free throw performance I've ever seen. Looks like its going to pay off too.

Don't get me wrong, duncan had a good game, but look at his numbers in the 4th quarter he missed a lot of shots and free throws in the 4th.

With this win by dallas, this just might be an incredible series. Kudos to dallas, half of there points at the free throw line.

Spurs in 7.

Dallas and defense in the same sentence!?!?!?!? They got some much needed stops down the stretch.

man, that game was painful to watch. Maybe the refs should let them play basketball next time. Way to many fouls were called. I like to see people actually shoot the ball and stuff, instead of just shooting free throws. Good comeback by the mavs though...SA choked big time

Oh, and something else...Dirk Nowitski has now lost all of my respect. I never really liked him because he's such a pansy and flails his arms around a stuff, but driving the side where an injured player is and stepping on his foot? That's just dirty

shooting 14/20 for the game, he couldn't have missed that many in the fourth. ;) You're right tho, he choked at the line in crunch time. SA should feel pretty good about this game tho, they shot well and there's no way dallas will make that many free throws in game 2. Dallas has alot more improving to do if they are going to win the series.

HEY, before you go off on nowitzki, why not let the spurs have it for NOT calling the TIME OUT when they had the ball.

also, Spurs never made ANY attempt to foul BEFORE he could drive the basket.

Burden is on Spurs for NOT looking out for their own player. I guarantee you that would NEVER have happened with the Nets.

Exactly. That was far from a dirty play.

Yes, they could have called a timeout, but the truth of the matter is that Dirk did a classless thing but going right at an injured player.

That's right. And remember--Nowitzki caused Webber's injury too! He used his telekinetic powers to trip Webberpimp.

You should also direct your frustrations at the Rose's teammates and coaches: They would rather save a timeout than go to the aid of a fallen comrade. Tsk tsk.

Wow, can't believe my Mavs pulled it off. The free throw shooting was incredible, like watching opposite ends of the spectrum here. And for the record, I believe Dirk missed one of the regular season games vs SA where Dallas lost so you could say that was a scratch too.

BTW, do any other Mav fans here cringe whenever Bradley goes into a shooting motion? And for that matter La Frentz. I swear, our point guards rebound better than those two stiffs. That's a total of almost $100 million of suckiness. Naw... I'm not bitter :disgust:

Agreed. Its not dallas' problem.
