Dirk's cool...i hate Bradley though...

everyone's picking on Dirk, but I think he's a good player ( although i'm cheering for the spurs)<br>
<br>
he's just doing what's necessary to win as everyone does...speaking of floppin...vlade is aite <br>
flopping is a skill too<br>
<br>
sometimes it works for you, sometimes it works against you<br>
<br>
in the end, if you do it too much, you won't get the real calls, so you pay for it<br>
<br>
Dirk will get his too...then he'll stop and then start again...that's how the game is played<br>
<br>
but i have nothin against the guy<br>
<br>
i do hate shawn bradley though...he's just a big freak of nature with elbows sharp as knife and hard as hammer...and he always complains and whines like he's the little guy getting picked on <p></p><i></i>

The Mavs, in order of how much I like them:<br>
<br>
1) Finley: very streaky shooter, great slasher--somehow he just looks like a likeable fellow<br>
<br>
2) Raja: You've gotta respect this ex-Spur, one of a couple Mavs who actually plays D.<br>
<br>
3) Najera: Kind of whiney, but I like his floorburn attitude and he plays D.<br>
<br>
4) Adrian Griffin: Invisible man who makes an appearance when someone needs to be fouled, or someone is in foul trouble.<br>
<br>
5) The Wizard: Cocky attitude as he drains the three, but usually smiling, looks like he'd be fun to party with.<br>
<br>
6) Raef: Has a great game every 4 games or so where he looks like he's a franchise player. Fouls frequently, usually followed by whining.<br>
<br>
7) Bradley: It's just great to see him on the court dwarfing David and Tim. Something you can tell your girlfriend to make her check out the game for a second or two. "Look at that guy, he's standing next to two 7 footers and he's towering over them."<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> Nash: Greasy, greasy, locks. Wipe them away from your sweaty brow every time the camera pans to you. Drive in out of control, travel, you'll still head to the line.<br>
<br>
9) Dirk: be brilliant on O, flop on D, flop on O, hack on D. Does his hair limit his peripheral vision?<br>
<br>
10) Van Exel: Shoot, shoot, shoot, and cry, cry, cry. It's pretty fun to predict what Nick's gonna do at a given point in the game. I think I'm usually right 75% of the time. I think the defenders know as well, but he still manages to score.<br>
<br>

Bradley: "Oh yeah! Duncan's not in the lane, I'll drive and get 2 points so easy!.......OOOOF!!!!"<br>
<br>
Malik: "Not in MY house, ya toothpick!!!"<br>

SpursFaninAK great take on Malik's block! I think I cheered and laughed every time they showed the replay. I think even Duncan enjoyed that play!! <p></p><i></i>

you must not watch the mavericks very much<br>
Raef NEVER says anything back to the refs<br>
<br>
and as far as shawn goes, you would say something to, if you went in for a shot and malik hits you on your forearm and there is no foul called! <p></p><i></i>

Great call on Finley VW, he's the one guy on the Mavs that I would love to see wearing the silver and black. I also have a lot of respect for Finley. It's a shame he gets ignored for the bad hair cut club. <p></p><i></i>

I have said maybe in other forums since the regular season that he is the weakest link of the "Big Three". He's the one I've seen choke late in so many important games the past couple of years, and bricks shots in crunch time usually, Game 1 not withstanding. <p>--<!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><br>

I thought Finley was the one guy in the Dallas orginization (players, coaches etc) who tried to step up last night when things looked bad. <p></p><i></i>

Sorry coach, no one gets that call. When the defense gets a hand full of ball, the following contact on the arm isn't a foul. Especially when it's so cut and dry. Bradley's long, slow strides and slow swooping arm movement made the call easy to see. <p></p><i></i>

you're right coach...there should have been a foul.<br>
<br>
an offensive foul.<br>
<br>
Bradley tried to clear out Rose with his forearm. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.sahoops.net/"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0RQDqBOQUv96Q*aAyXJvhC4PpiqY5aClJPVxG2NkCtZhZohfA18sp9cB0Mm2RXo3eDH31HP7*AzJAdc6m90L45YCEuPWDr1AM8aLtyvld1AI/SAmikeyp.jpg"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--><br>

I didn't say anything about the refs. He usually whines to himself or his teammates. Never say never though. I've seen him cry to the refs before. <p></p><i></i>

Trust me, there are Mavs fans that hate him much more than any Spurs fan could. Given the way that anyone from the most average big man in the league to the most dominant dominates him, I don't see how you guys could actually hate him. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.myezboard.com/projects/ezboard/ezboard_userimages/spursdominion/images/turquoisesmilewinkgrin.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>
