LOL at the Mavs pre-game video

I am going to stay true to my statement last night
And drink during this game. Just wine though, nothing crazy…one of those little bottles.

I just ordered a pizza
so I think a beer is in order over here.

It sounds like a pizza and beer kind of game
I personally am having wine and chips/salsa.

Aw
These aren’t the Dallas commentators on League Pass.
by Marie on Nov 4, 2008 7:30 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
The Spurs commentators, I assume?
Too bad then, you’re stuck with Sean Elliott.

Ugh, I know
Not sure who is worse, him or the Suns guy…is it Eddie Johnson?

I wish
TWC had league pass… who really uses directv anyways.

You should sign up for the free League Pass broadband preview
It lasts until the 11th, and you just need a NBA.com account. No credit card information is needed.

Thanks
But I’d rather watch it on TV…the laptop I’m using has Vista and it sucks.
by Marie on Nov 4, 2008 7:41 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, my laptop has vista too
hate it.

For some reason I can't see the game on league pass, it only shows the logo
Only the NJ – Phoenix game is on. Lopez vs. Lopez is funny.

One of their brothers looks exactly like them.

Was that really a foul on Kidd?
i thought it’d be jump ball.
by Marie on Nov 4, 2008 7:46 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
It was definitely close

Can anybody confirm this
I remember reading somewhere before that Kidd is winless so far against Tony Parker
???

Just tuning in..
I went to the game last night and well.. haha
by b3tts32 on Nov 4, 2008 7:50 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, haha
We know how that turned out…must have been a lot worse seeing that performance in person
by Marie on Nov 4, 2008 7:51 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah everybody was just in shock
when the cavs kept scoring and he just left the bench in during that 4th quarter stretch
by b3tts32 on Nov 4, 2008 7:52 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, that was odd
That he called a timeout and made no adjustments, and then he called another one shortly after to put in his starters….so that’s like two wasted timeouts
by Marie on Nov 4, 2008 7:53 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
That was a lousy call on Damp
They didn’t blow the whistle until after Duncan missed the shot and after they saw his theatrics!
by Marie on Nov 4, 2008 7:53 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
Just once I want to see Tim called for taking too much time on the FT line
He holds the ball for 5+ seconds all the time
by Norsktroll on Nov 4, 2008 7:55 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
If we can somehow win this game
this will do wonders for our confidence and probably could see a nice stretch of wins.
by b3tts32 on Nov 4, 2008 7:53 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
just tuned in, and the first thing i see is about 3 offensive rebounds for the spurs.
sigh doesn’t quite say it.

Wow, was that really a three
I thought he had a toe on the line, but I’ll take it

What do John McCain and the Spurs have in common?
they are both getting OWNED tonight…

Hey, it might not be too late
For the Spurs, that is…our hot shooting streak might not continue

Yeah
but the Spurs actually have chance of coming back.

is terry a long term starter for this team though?
he’s great in offensive efficiency and all… i love what he brings to the table…
he is matched up with finley… so he’s not really being tested on the defensive end like he would be when we are up against other elite teams…
by kkengvib on Nov 4, 2008 8:50 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
He's not the favorite to start
I still think Carlisle wants it to be Wright, but Terry is making a case for himself.

Damp seems to be a little better handling the ball.
Maybe it’s my imagination, but I’ve seen him make plays in a few situations already this year that his hands were always too dumb to make. Whatever it is, I hope he keeps doing it.
by DitchThePlaybook on Nov 4, 2008 8:53 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
23-point lead; I'm impressed
I’d be more impressed if we actually don’t blow it and win the game
by ptrck on Nov 4, 2008 8:52 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
i flipped over to election coverage
to watch another blowout for a bit… plus i get nervous when the mavs have big leads… and id rather them keep it and me not watch, than me watch and them blow it
by zkmavz on Nov 4, 2008 8:52 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
I get that way sometimes
I irrationally think that I am jinxing them somehow

no turnovers for kidd....
he’s actually been really impressive for me since the start of this campaign
by kkengvib on Nov 4, 2008 8:55 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
Here, I'll try this:
No Flagrant-2 fouls on Duncan all night!

That pass by Kidd was nice

love it when the shots are falling...
but should we be trying to attack the rim and possibly get to the line more…
we certainly won’t be this hot from the field every game
by kkengvib on Nov 4, 2008 9:04 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
I know it
I guess they’re taking advantage of the hot streak
by Marie on Nov 4, 2008 9:05 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
You have to, right?
Reminds me of that 67-win Mavs team. A season-long “hot streak”

i hate to be the guys who comes in and harps on the bad.
so i’ll say the mavs were crazy out of their minds in the first half.
please , don’t give up a humongus lead….
