Official Dallas Mavericks vs. OKC Thunder (WCF) Thread. Dallas Mavericks Western Conference Champs

Man yall shut up.

Down 15 with less than five to go, EVERYONE thought this game was OVER.

It was over.

And then Dirk happened.

Re-Dirk-ulous.

 

[jonwin]

Dirk's amazing in that he's one of the rare players who's actually become better at the latter part of his career. Most players his age and mileage start to decline for the worst and just lose their skills where he's just added more to his game and improved on his deficiencies. 
A testament to his hard work ethic and drive 

Kind of a tangent but looking back, it was probably for the best that Nash left the Mavs; otherwise Dirk wouldn't have had to "grow up" and take ownership of the team and become what he is today. 

 

[pmatic]

@kpelton After Harden fouled out, KD was 0-6 (0-5 on threes) with 1 assist and 2 TOs. It's not a RW thing, it's an offense thing.

There is literally no offense, no real plays. KD pindown, KD iso post up that isn't going to work well because defenders are drapped over him, Russ pound the ball the whole possession then do something crazy.

I don't even care what you said about Brooks, I'm talking about the game going on RIGHT NOW. You claim that Oklahoma fans are oh so "loyal" yet you quit on your team when they are still very much in the game. What kind of @#$# is that? You're a joke just like the rest of the Oklahoma fan base. Take a seat. 

Your fan base could only fill the arena 78% (14k out of 18k) and built arenas for 2 other sports and wouldn't for the Sonics and then wanna cry all day now.

And how am I quitting. I am sitting in front of a computer. Nothing I do matters to the outcome. Lack of sunshine and too much caffeine killing brain cells from those Seattle folks.

My dude sitting there like this right now:

 It's okay, I understand your mad. 

Meanwhile, I'm sitting here like:

Thank you Dirk

Harden fouled out.

 

[fundamental21ticket]

Six points in the final 10 minutes of the game

. Thunder just had ZERO offensive flow and their late game play calling is still awful. Also, Dirk's pivot game is the best I've seen in the NBA. He keeps it down and never drag it or anything of that nature where a travel could be called.

Harden had fouled out

You guys are just reaching, to criticize a team of young 20somethings that are in the Western Conference Finals because you are scared for the future of your own respective teams, most of whom have been eliminated. The team you root for would kill to be in this position, unless of course it's Chicago, Dallas, Miami, instead of at home watching.

So now our fans are too excited during losses, I thought they quit too early during losses. You guys can't even agree on a criticism. Straight reaching
