GAME THREAD: Round 1, Game 6 - Mavericks @ Blazers, 4.28.11 - DO or DIE!

It's ok, the Blazers didn't have a chance to win game 7. And the series should have been over in 5, if it weren't for a miracle 4th quarter come back.

Blazers almost had another comeback, but hello...why didn't they play that aggressive the whole game?

Blazers didn't deserve to win the series. We choked in crunch time, and shot the ball horribly. Mavs got a lot of wide open looks.

Well...here's looking forward to another 1st round exist next year...if there even is a season. I'm kinda glad it's over though. Portland needs some changes.

 

Johny Cash's version is great but you can't forget the original

changes are badly needed, in hindsight I wonder if CHO now regrets not blowin it up at the deadline

 

I always do. I only watch Blazers games. Season's over.

Tomorrow will be a wonderful day because I'm going fishing.

 

I dedicate this song to the 2010-2011 Dallas mavericks:

Besides being a prisoner here, now he has that burning losing feeling all summer. This outcome sure makes him want to keep playing in the NBA, doesn't it?

 

For awhile, earlier in the season, this team was actually fun to watch again. Ball movement, we got up and down the court, then something happened. We went back to this plodding half court offense. I swear, this playoff series (aside from that 4th quarter comeback) was incredibly boring. I hope we get Rick Adleman.

 

Paul Allen doesn't seem like the type to hire a guy he already fired.

 

That's because we're small time failures

If I were a Dallas player I would have laughed in that guys face.

 

The better team won. You can't deny Portland's deficiencies and the Mav's strengths. Now, good luck with your holding, pushing and flopping against the Flakers, LOL.

Having said that, it really pisses me off that the league refs fucked us the entire series, including this game. I have no problem losing to a better team. Getting reamed by the refs at the same time just isn't right. All I want is a fair game. Is that too much too ask, Stern, you fuck head?

I know Brandon made is first three shots in the first half, but after that we were outscored by at least 20 points the rest of the half, while he was in the game. He was really no help.

IF (that's IF) we had a healthy Greg Oden and the Brandon Roy of old, we would have killed the Mavs. Destroyed them. That reality really depresses me. Why are we so cursed?

On the bright side, if we'd gotten past the Mavs, we'd have gotten killed by the Flakers size advantage. I'd rather lose to the Mavs.

Gotta love Gerald Wallace. There has been talk about how his 'disappointing' play up until tonight, but if you look at his game stats and his defense, he was one of the best and most consistent players on the team this whole series.

Keep Chris Johnson. He's fun to watch.

Just wait till next year!

 

Look on the bright side, at least we scored 90 tonight! LOL!

 

How did the refs ream you in this game? Dallas had 22 FT attempts to Portland's 26, and the fouls were 19 - 18 in Dallas' favour. Take out the 8 FTs Dirk shot at the end and the calls were clearly in Portland's favour.

But I go agree, if you had a healthy Greg Oden and old Brandon Roy, Dallas would have lost the series.

 

Fuck him.

If Rudy shows up and even plays mediocre basketball the team advances to the second round.
