After seeing all these other teams with their huge jumbotron, I hope the Spurs finally upgrade

Any way Cuban brings back Dirk and Carter?
If there was ever a time to burn that thing down, now's the time (6 free agents).
Dirk will end his career in Dallas. Book it.
Carter might stay but what if Miami comes calling? Will he go there for a ring chance?
Way to show up big today Spurs. Bring on Portland!
Go Spurs Go!
Go Spurs Go!
Whoop

I hope so
Great series
On to the next one

I would think Dirk would look to retire. He's got a lot of basketball miles and clearly isn't the player he once was. What better time than now to step away?
Also best for the team in they can let those guys go and really start seriously building. You've got a good coach. Time to turn the page.

Spurs win!!! Next up: Portland. Let's BTHO tBlazers guys!
Obviously I haven't seen many Mav games but why wish for Carter to go? He pretty much won 2 of the 3 games this series with his insane shooting.
Ugh, 930 EST on Tuesday. I am going to lose some serious sleep living on the east coast during this series.
Dirk will definitely be back. We just need our third man to add to Monta and Dirk.

Harris re-sign?
Great series from Dallas.
This is when winning 62 games helps. Game 7 at home.
Go Spurs.

f that. dirk is already willing to take less money. he can still shoot that mid range jump shot like an assassin for the next five years. there is still no stopping it. the time has come for him to be a 3rd option type guy, but on the right team, he is still an unstoppable scorer.
Obi,
One word: defense.
Dirk does not have it. He's essentially Matt Bonner on the defensive end.

Good series by the Mavs. Hope AgBeliever found a tampon, what an embarrassment. Bring on Portland.
Matt Bonner isn't that bad of a defender to be honest. He's just undersized.
And Dirk should not retire. He can still play.

+1. 10:30 for games 3 and 4.

lol wut?
Obviously he's not Tim Duncan. But after watching him over the years he has improved. He plays physical against guys bigger than him and surprisingly has some success while doing it.
Improvement =/= effective
Bonner gives good effort on that end, but as you stated, he's too undersized to guard any big man, and he's too slow and not athletic enough to guard anyone on the perimeter. So basically, he's a terrible defender.

U think a guy who just averaged 22 a game for 89 games should retire? Dirk has never been great on d but there is still zero nba players who can block his shot. He still shot 50 pct for the ur.
He is a great scans option

I don't know about his defense, but the best thing about Matt Bonner????
Free Agent 2014!!!!!!!

Dirk will retire as a Mav 2-3 years from now, and he's said as much recently. Ellis was a great addition. Need to find another one.
Just for the record, Bonner is 6'10".
GSG!
I like Dirk. Virtually unguardable as a shooter.
Hope the SA fans weren't taunting him - he has earned the respect.
Great series. Bring on Portland.

Reading agbeliever's game 7 comments was enjoyable as anything.
I missed the 2nd half earlier but I'm watching it now. 2 thoughts:
1. Had I not known the outcome, I would have been awfully nervous when the Mavs got it to 14 points.
2. Man, Dirk was being a whiney little u know what. Dude is one of the greats and played up to his reputation many times during this series... But dude, get over yourself. Every time you miss a shot or make a bad pass it's not a foul. I don't recall him being such a baby when we've played him in previous playoffs. Lots of guys complain, but this guy was none stop at times.
Spurs should be more than ready for Portland. I'll be surprised if they put up near the fight the Mavs didm

Dirk cried the entire series. He's always complained (most every great player does) but this series it was RIDICULOUS. He cried throughout most games. Can't wait to see him gone. I've strongly disliked him from year 1
^ Well guess what, we feel the exact same way about Duncan, Parker, and Chickenarms.
^
Well, I guess that proves you can't please everybody.
Congrats Spurs and Spurs fans on making it to the second round. It was a well fought series that adds to the growing rivalry.
Now, go Blazers.

Just home from the game. Crowd was absolutely electric. I went to all three finals games and this crowd today was probably better than all three of them. Crowd was not taunting Dirk. Only Blair.
Great game. Portland will be tough.

Dirk had improved for a while, but he is worse now at defense than he was in 2003.
