    Shouldn't the best team in the East beat the Clippers?

    if you wanna have a kingseed type excuse ready thats fine.... but if we lose its 3 in a row and we welcome the spurs on sunday so it would be 4 losses in a row.

    it will make us all feel better that the clippers beat the celtics.


    shut up

    Its called perspective tooly. You have this team set to win the NBA finals, then fine be butthurt every time they lose a game. This team will be in the playoffs while having the youngest roster (on a per minute basis) in the league.

    sickening, okc chokes away a 12 pt lead as dallas goes on a 16-0 run, only to have a 5 pt possession (foul on a 3, make first 2, miss 3rd, rebound, drain 3)..now in ot...phx is pulling away from toronto, denver up on la, and hornets won on a unk tip that shouldn't have counted as west traveled.

    Closer to the 2 spot than to the 9. If we keep playing like we did yesterday, it's not out of the realm of possibility.

    OT: Mavs lose to Durantless/Greenless Thunder.

    Just remember this when people in here bitch about us losing to a team without their best player.

    After going up big, I thought the Thunder were gonna choke. But, to their credit, they held it together. Nowitzki almost singlehandedly brought the Mavs back.

    "[N]o Green!?" Poor guys, I feel their pain--I hate being without it! :pimp:

    Westbrook with a triple-double (17, 10, & 10) in the win.

    Re: OT: Mavs lost to Thunder

    the thunder might be the best young team in the league. They even have more scoring options then us.

    I mean after this next draft, some would take their roster over ours.

    Durant, Green, Westbrook, and TOP 5 LOTTO PICK or Roy, LA, Oden (at this point hes a major bust) and a trade?


    its really not close...

    kingspeed, when you have gotten into trouble in your life.... do you always say "well so and so did it too"

    just cause someone else does something.... doesnt make it acceptable

    jeez...
