1) US (mainly coaching.. but players youth played a huge role)
2) dirk came up big
3) refs (not for making the calls FOR the mavs.. but marion got to be physical on KD while we didnt on the other end)

Durant and Westbrook were getting the calls, Whenever Collison was all over Dirk, Dirk wasn't getting the calls.

When he did the circus shot, most refs would've easily called it.

And Kidd guarding Durant and taking care of business

People sleep on Kidd's defense. Its not a master piece or anything, but he gets the job done. He is able to do a pretty good job on bigger guys. Its the smaller Chris Paul types that give him fits. He has guarded Kobe, Durant, etc...If its Mavs/Heat in the Finals dont be surprised to see him on LeBron some. The Mavs have stuck Kidd on him before.

Yes, I did miss it.

They will be good eventually. Scoot Brooks will become a better coach, but its not their time yet.

watch 3:13 mark.. then watch 3:30

again, what's the difference? 

Collison got both arms wrapped around Dirk and a handful of his jersey?

Kidd swiped at the ball... Collison pulled Dirk backwards.

i agree.. time is a luxury that we have.. and everything after the memphis series was gravy for me.. but it's just annoying knowing we could have done better and should have been doing simple things (like starting harden for 1)

 
edit-
not sure about brooks though.. i think we need a bigger personality and more vocal person.. i wasn't trying make a snide remark when i commented on carlisle going to the media about the defense on dirk, because i think brooks needs to do the same thing.. you have to draw attention to these things and force the league's hand

Not a carbon copy, of course, since this is only the Western Conference finals and only Game 4. But these Mavs, folks, just Miami'd OKC


He's not talking about Mavs getting screwed, he's talking about in Game 3 in the Finals when Miami came back from like 12, 14 down when they were just about dead and about to lose the third straight, but came back and won.

This is the best team the mavs , have ever had . 
This team murks the 06 IMO .

Dirk is cold blooded just dominating the game at the most crucial points and hitting 2 clutch free throws . 

Baring Refs the mavs should win the chip .

I didn't catch the OT but is this right Durant went 10 mins without a single bucket? If so wow that makes no sense.

Do you always have to bring the Heat into every post?

I watched the middle of the 4th quarter and I turn the game off. I haven't been near a media outlet of any sort until now to find out the Mavericks WON?

at the Thunder and at me for not finishing watching.
