The Mavericks shot 30 3 pointers. You dont get foul shots shooting 3 pointers.<br>
<br>
In addition, the Mavs only average 22 free throw attempts per game. They took, surprisingly enough, 22 free throws.<br>
<br>
The Spurs only got 4 more foul calls than the Mavericks, but shot 23 more foul shots. Why? They took 11 3 pointers. This shows the Spurs were driving to the basket more and creating contact.<br>
<br>
So, Spurs took more free throws. Its not poor officiating and its not a conspiracy.<br>
<br>
As for Dirk, that was a stupid coaching decision. When Tim gets in foul trouble, HE SITS. .allas left Dirk in the game and he picked up another foul. An obvious, easy to call, stupid foul.<br>
<br>
Suck it up Mavericks, the ball bounces both ways.
