I just finished watching the mavs/nuggets. Pretty amazingly clutch shot by Arron Afflalo, but God, it seems like the mavs can never catch a break.

I'd feel sorry for you.....but I'm a rockets fan.
the mavs can't catch a break? didn't y'all just string together a 9 or 10 game winning streak that was held together by cleveland screwing up an inbounds pass?
spare me. dirk is a woman and they blew a big lead in a short time.

DALLAS -- The Cleveland Cavaliers lost their way into the NBA record book in fitting fashion -- not with a blowout, but with the kind of head-slapping plays typical of a team that can't do anything right.
Like a 7-foot center losing a jump ball to a 6-foot-2 guard. And a decent outside shooter deciding to pass as time expired instead of putting up a potential tying 3-pointer.

With the Kings trailing 100-98, Evans drove into a crowd and put up an airball and Nowitzki grabbed the rebound. Terry made two free throws with 4 seconds left to put the Mavericks ahead 102-98.
"Coach drew up the play. DeMarcus set a pick, Sam [Dalembert] set a pick, and I just tried to be aggressive," Evans said. "They didn't give us the call so I probably should have pulled up [for a jumper]. It's rare when a ref calls a foul like that at the end of the game."

Mavs have been on a nice win streak lately. Terry is a tool though, and he will disappear when it counts.
Dirk is a great player, and as much as I can't stand his awkward 2" vert jump shot, I hope he either gets another shot at the championship in Dallas or elsewhere - he has carried the Mavs for SO long now.

His shot has been really off the last 2 games since he has the brace on his wrist.
Aaron Aflalo went Dwayne Wade on us last night. The guy couldn't miss in the last 2 minutes.
And no, we didn't beat the Cavs because they screwed up an inbounds pass.

If you give up 121 points in regulation, you probably don't deserve to win anyway. Denver made 52% of their FGs and 48% of their threes. At some point, you need to put a hand in their face.
Good to konw that they didn't deserve to win either.
Their box score looks crazy. They basically beat us with 3 guys (Anthony, Billups, and Afflalo). They almost scored 100 points between them.

Do you understand the context of the post?
I despise Jason Terry (Finley nut-punch, flagrant foul trying to injure mid-air Manu followed by 'nice guy' offering a hand up, intentionally kicking/tripping Hill, 'jet' arm motion etc.), but Dirk seems like a decent guy (except when he's sticking his tongue out like an idiot).
