    John Goble == Tim Donaghy

    Mavs will win and cover the spread.

    so does Chandler. Hopefully this wakes up Portland, but I don't think it will.

    The refs are terrible, but Portland looks like they've just given up. Miller ISO ball isn't working.

    I just realized that Dallas probably has the tightest rims in the league.

    Chandler shoved Wallace square in the back.

    This is pure comedy.

    Aren't push-offs considered a foul?

    This is even better.

    Free throws attempted per point in the paint
    In Portland
    Portland: 0.65
    Dallas: 0.59

    In Dallas
    Portland: 0.38
    Dallas: 0.91

    Someone explain this to me -- I can't quite wrap my mind around it.

    We are getting killed on the boards. That last Chandler rebound was a push off though

    That shot by Miller would have been points in the paint. That was a fade away jumper that had no chance of drawing a foul. Sometimes stats can be misleading. Portland should definately have more FT attempts, but Dallas has been the more aggressive team so far tonight

    This team is very weak mentally. Everything has gotten into their heads and they're not really doing anything that got them close in the first place.

    Portland's one break was game 4. Thats the extent of their "holy shit" moments for the year.

    Our offense has been absolutely pathetic in this series. Pathetic. I really want to see how this team would play under a coach who knows how to run one.

    Why in the world would Dallas come out and guard the perimeter? We couldn't get much colder from long range. That (along with free throws) been one of the two defining stats of the series.
