The quote above is about his play down the stretch. It's been accurate more times than not this post season.

Dirk clutch from the line. Only his 3rd free throw of the game.

Nice FTs.

As a gambling man I say that OKC is due to make a couple of three-pointers. I'd throw a little pressure up the court. Clock is your buddy.

Give em quick looks. Just don't foul the Thunder and make your own free throws.

Durant passed up a layup and wasted four extra seconds.

Nevermind... forgot they get to advance the ball on the TO. Still applies on the upcoming possession.

Game synopsis:

Mavs play bad, OKC plays worse. Refs make questionable calls, spectators lose.

I'm not quite sure what OKC's offense is supposed to be, but I know it is NOT about getting the ball to Durant in a good place to shoot.

Dirk only 7-21 with 3ftas. Mavs escape with a win. Feeling good

Good road victory for the Mavericks. We've won back home court advantage. You don't want to settle for split, but you've already done your job in OKC.

Marion and Kidd were solid for four quarters. Awesome 4th quarter from Nowitzki.

Ugly game from the officiating crew.

Final FT disparity was 36-18 (and six of those FTs for DAL were on intentional fouls to extend the game).

What an abomination of a game by both teams and the terrible refs. Ugly ugly win, but I'll take a W any day.

piss poor effort from OKC to give back homecourt. brooks has got to change the starting lineup and some of his rotations.

Good game mavs, awesome start that was unrecoverable.

Westbrook got okc back in the game, good to see him bounce back. Funny how everytime he takes a jumper and misses the world cries "westbrook is killing the team...those people don't know ****

Let's not go overboard here and dismiss the Maverick performance.

The first quarter and most of second quarter from Dallas was brilliant. It was spectacular offense and stifling defense. After that it was ugly. I think they started clock watching instead of playing solid hoops.

Thunder had two stinker quarters and two decent quarters.

Refs were garbage throughout.

Don't ***** about free throws, attack the rim and you would see more attempts. Fortunately your jumpers are so good you don't have to drive

36 - 18 ft disparity? And we still win?

What's the + - with Perkins in the game? He's a lot like Haywood. Just a warm body and shows no heart.

I'll take it.


Wasn't pretty or fun to watch at the end.

Bigger picture, great win for Dallas in that it doesn't let a young team build some momentum off two wins in a row.

Padz, you are a very good and objective poster but you know damn well that the calls were absolutely horrible. Any touch foul on Dallas was called and OKC was raping the Mavs players and it still was not getting called.

Padz, I said the same thing, but apparently, the jump shooting team should have the same amount of free throw attempts as the aggressive team that drives every possession...

Great win by the mavs, they have the thunder against the ropes

"Drive to the bucket and you'll get more fouls called."


I saw Dirk TRY to drive a number of times and get mugged with no foul call.

Dirk was 1-6 in the paint. 0 bail out calls while okc getting bailed out constantly. Add to that Collison mugging him on the post where they couldn't even get it to him. This happens often in the playoffs though. Have to fight through it with adjustments. Switched to feeding Dirk on the pnr and high post. Collison made some bad choices on the pnr
