Kind of hoping we get that JVG-Carradine moment tonight. Sounded pretty despondant. After a few post-game drinks, who knows?
wow. i don't know how OKC recovers from that.
can't believe the mavs won both in okc
pretty damn impressive

How long do you want to ignore this user?
ESPN headline: That Just Happened
wonder when the last time a first lead was taken in OT before.
Muy, this didn't ruin my day. In fact, I think the mavs have more of a chance to take out the heat in the finals than okc does. And basically the only thing that would ruin my day is if the heat win the title
Mavs win game - Never led in regulation
Durant looked tired, just like he did at the end of some games at t.u. when he had to carry everybody else.
There are times as a basketball fan where what you witnessed transcends logic. That game was ridiculous across the board.
Great D by the Mavs the last 5 minutes. I think OKC was way too confident when they got up by 15. Mavs never quit. I would imagine it will be tough for the Thunder to bounce back in game 5 after this.
For everybody complaining about Brooks' offense, why does it only not work when Harden is out of the game? Maybe Brooks' offense is good but Westbrook just isn't smart enough to execute what he is told.
Don't get me wrong, I was born and raised in Dallas and remember watching kid back in the day.. but these refs are ridiculous! Dirk is still a hoss though.
I will say this, as much as I've always hated Dallas, if they finish this series out, I'll be pulling for them against the Heat, I'd love nothing more than for those ***gots to get beat so close to a title.
Anyone but the mother effing Heat. Seriously
biker...their best lineup is any combo with harden/westbrook/durant. Anything else and Westbrook just has no other options he's confident with. Ibaka showed tonight he can hit that jumper, but when it came to crunch time, not having harden in there was killer.
shut up Simplebay, predict the Mavs to lose out!
I predict the mavs will win the title and muy will finally lose his virginity

why does the offense work better with 3 shooters as opposed to 2?
do you really need to ask that question?

Magic just changed his MVP of the Playoffs to Dirk, saying he hasn't seen this type of play since the Jordan era.
I've been saying Miami would win the title since last summer. I now think Dallas will beat Miami in the finals. They are playing so well together, they can beat good teams even on off nights. They just have great, great chemistry right now.
does lebron guard dirk?
Also, while Dirk is not as good of a player as Larry Legend was, because he can't rebound or pass like Bird, he is every bit as good offensively as Bird was.
The heat dallas series just has so many ridiculous matchups it's crazy. I guess Dallas put chandler on Bosh, Marion on Lebron, and Stevenson on Wade. But... Who do you put on Dirk? He'd eat Bosh's lunch, and I don't think you want to make Lebron take that on.
who the hell is going to guard wade and lebron???
hahahahahaha that would be very fun to watch

The lasting image of this game and for me will be in the last minute of regulation Durant passing to Westbrook and Westbrook passing it right back. Neither guy wanted the ball at the end of the game. Series over.

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

Padz, I apologize if I was abrasive...tough loss. We've been there (and worse) as Dallas fans. OKC will only get better in time.
Easy to pat them on the back after something like that. People get too emotional and hateful on these threads.
quite a change in tone...probably would have been different if you lost? you won't find a more level headed fan here than myself, i just think it's gay when this board turns into rivalries.
