[k0kakw0rld]

He is about to show Dirk who's the real boss. The same way he did to Blake.:bowdown:

[imnew09]

Shawn Marion is gonna guard him. Love is getting shut down.

[Pacquiao]

Will lose again.. " Empty Stats "

[k0kakw0rld]

Showtime people.

[DMAVS41]

Sure hope not, but we are pretty bad defensively...

He might go for 60...LOL

Damn our defense is really bad

[k0kakw0rld]

12 Pts 2 Rebs 2 assists 5/9 fg late 1st

[DMAVS41]

Carlisle really making some bad mistakes on his defensive game plan so far...he's allowed Rubio to not take a shot the entire half so far.

That can't happen...they need to be doubling Love and making Rubio hit some shots.

[DirkNowitzki41]

love and pek scoring with ease.

[DMAVS41]

Marion playing like it's 2006...:applause:

[plowking]

Dat 20 point lead doe.

[k0kakw0rld]

And people claiming "Empty stats" they don't even look at the games.

Turnovers after turnovers...none of those turnovers are because of Love.

His supporting cast is so inconsistent. He needs to go he is wasting his best years. I know he is not the greatest defender and sometimes his body language on the court is poor but I'm not blaming him.

That was a terrible first half...Mavs could be up 30 if we doubled Love and actually made one of the worst shooters ever make some shots.

We also got a lot of bounces go our way though.

[DirkNowitzki41]

Mavs could easily lose this lead. They tend to fade away from Dirk and play lazy when they feel safe

and i guess this is the game thread :confusedshrug:

For sure. Outside of a couple nice defensive plays by Marion, Ellis, and Dirk...we did nothing to stop them.

They just made bad turnovers and missed some easy shots. On offense, we were hot and got some lucky bounces.

Hopefully the Wolves continue to play with no energy...

yep, its happening now. down to 6

[DMAVS41]

Pretty shitty that such a veteran team like the Mavs can't hold leads. That defense is just so bad that it lets teams back in really fast when our offense struggles...

[DMAVS41]

Make Rubio shoot! Terrible coaching...

This one is all on Carlisle...no excuse for this

[DirkNowitzki41]

brewer just hit 3 threes this quarter. :facepalm

[DMAVS41]

Well, that sucked...

Seems like the problem in Minny is just energy. There is no reason why this team shouldn't be really good.

Adelman might not be the guy to motivate them, but they have the players for sure to make the playoffs.

And we can't keep giving Larkin minutes in games like this...it's costing us wins. Going to have to stagger Ellis and Calderon better. Can't have Mekel and Larkin playing so many key minutes

[k0kakw0rld]

11 more points 1 more rebs and 1 more assist :applause:

[B-Easy8]

What a comeback! 19 points in a quarter.

Mavs are so dumb. Everyone shoots garbage instead of giving it to Dirk.

[LakersForlife]

holy crap. 21 point lead erased just like that. like dirk said make rubio shoot

[DirkNowitzki41]

What a comeback! 19 points in a quarter.

Mavs are so dumb. Everyone shoots garbage instead of giving it to Dirk.

yep. im not even surprised anymore. this happens way too often

i doubt we win this now

[LakersForlife]

this prediction is on point

[B-Easy8]

yep. im not even surprised anymore. this happens way too often

i doubt we win this now

Who's fault is it?

To me it seems like Carlisle.

He seems to be happy with guys like Calderon, Monta and VC shooting garbage instead of giving to a guy who will torch us.

[DMAVS41]

Minny runs a lot of nice sets for Love. He gets a ton of wide open shots...I'm sure some it is awful Mavs defense, but he gets great looks

[DMAVS41]

Who's fault is it?

To me it seems like Carlisle.

He seems to be happy with guys like Calderon, Monta and VC shooting garbage instead of giving to a guy who will torch us.

Tonight it's definitely on Carlisle...but overall it's just our terrible defense...

[fpliii]

Love creating some nice shots for himself, and getting his teammates good looks.

OP called it though, 6 points + 1 assist in >7 minutes? I think he gets it.

[DMAVS41]

Damn...Ellis gets no respect...

[DirkNowitzki41]

Who's fault is it?

To me it seems like Carlisle.

He seems to be happy with guys like Calderon, Monta and VC shooting garbage instead of giving to a guy who will torch us.

Carlisle is definitely a big part of it. His rotations are awful, and for some reason he does not like to play Wright who is way better than an undersized Blair.

but just like dmavs said. You cant fully blame Carlisle when they play as bad as they did in the third.

[DirkNowitzki41]

and carter is terrible...

[fpliii]

I wanted to say it feels like Dirk's shots aren't falling from range, but he's shooting .421 on his 3s this season (which ties his career high).

Maybe I'm just tuning into poor shooting games? :confusedshrug:

[no pun intended]

holy shit op might be right lmao

[DMAVS41]

and carter is terrible...

He's been playing really well lately after his terrible start. That is Vince though...he's going to take 1 bad shot at least or make 1 bad play for every 2 good ones he makes.

It's still a net positive, but frustrating to watch.

[DMAVS41]

Keep shooting Monta...

[DMAVS41]

Marion...:wtf: :eek: :pimp:

[no pun intended]

that marion corner three has really been consistent this season

[B-Easy8]

Adelman you idiot put Rubio in.

Barea is shit. He just shoots rubbish and gets TO's.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

that marion corner three has really been consistent this season
Nope hes 10-32 on corner 3s this season
Matrix this game tho:biggums: :biggums: :biggums:

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Love just got fronted for a whole possession by Monta and then Monta got the defensive board:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

[DMAVS41]

God damnit Dalembert...do something right for a change...

[FireDavidKahn]

OP is gonna be close.:oldlol: :biggums:

[no pun intended]

Nope hes 10-32 on corner 3s this season
Matrix this game tho:biggums: :biggums: :biggums:
lmao really? seems like every time i watch him chuck them from the corner this season it goes in. but i'll admit i don't watch every game. i guess i just tune in at the right time.

[inclinerator]

so far so good

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Is this real life?

[k0kakw0rld]

Rubio :facepalm He is garbage...He needs to go or Love will.

[Uncle Drew]

Travel :lol

[no pun intended]

[DMAVS41]

Oh my god...

We can't win...it's impossible at this point.

The curse of Dalembert:wtf: :wtf: :wtf: :wtf: :wtf:

[DMAVS41]

Marion for president...:pimp:

[Illuminati]

How the **** is that not a foul? :roll: Wolves got robbed holy.

[Uncle Drew]

Holy shit, how is that not a foul. :oldlol:

[Jameerthefear]

He was really close tho

[FireDavidKahn]

:oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol:

WTF, REALLY? A NO CALL?

I'm all for letting players play at the end of the game but marion, clear as day, grabbed Love's arm:roll:

[robert de niro]

:biggums: :biggums: :biggums: :biggums:

[Micku]

Mavs got lucky.

[no pun intended]

poor wolves. the nba are gonna say its a mistake again like they did for kobe's no call foul on rubio last year

[R.I.P.]

Empty stats. :pimp:

[DirkNowitzki41]

:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

[k0kakw0rld]

He did destroyed Dirk tho!

And got robbed at the end. Clearly a foul.

Dirk wasnt even guarding him

Story of Kevin Love. Put up stats, lose.

Absolutely a bad call, but go watch the third quarter when the wolves got back into it. They go a ton of calls

[DMAVS41]

Empty stats

Just kidding...couldn't resist though:D

Dirk guarded him on one post up that was it:biggums: :biggums:
nikka did u even watch the game:biggums:

[k0kakw0rld]

Because Dirk can't guard him. :confusedshrug:

[B-Easy8]

Garbage no call.

Adelman keeping Rubio out for so long in favour of that piece of shit Barea killed us.

[LakersForlife]

:roll: :roll: :roll: hilarious the how can the ref miss that.i mean their arms are huge right

[DirkNowitzki41]

Because Dirk can't guard him. :confusedshrug:

Or maybe Marion is just a better defender :confusedshrug:

[SHAQisGOAT]

That was a clear foul.

Seen the Wolves get screwed on plenty of late game decisive calls, this season.

True, here and there he did though. Still, Love was guarding him mostly and he ended up playing below his standards.

[DMAVS41]

Nobody can.

But something is missing...

It probably should've been a foul, no doubt, I aint complainin. But the third quarter was pretty one sided.

Dirk missed plenty of wide open looks. Just a terrible game

Meh...pretty standard Dirk game. It was just an odd game in which they didn't go to him as often because the Wolves apparently wanted to let Marion kill them.

He shot a lot, but quite a few were just in weird spots. The Wolves smartly went under on every Ellis screen as well...so Dirk didn't get many good looks on all those pick and rolls.

Certainly wouldn't be crediting Love with any of that though.

[christian1923]

K love is the MVP

[b1imtf]

Give me Dirk any day of the week.

[DirkNowitzki41]

good game to the wolves fans though. They destroyed us in the 2nd half, and if it wasnt for Marion having by far his best game of the year, then we would have definitely lost

[vinsanity2756]

This is just unbelievable. I have never seen such a blatant slap on the arms, no call :wtf:
Is this real?

[SHAQisGOAT]

Gotta admit Love was doing a nice job guarding Dirk in the post though.

Love's reaction sums up most reactions after it lol

[DMAVS41]

Gotta admit Love was doing a nice job guarding Dirk in the post though.

I saw Dirk getting his standard looks...just happened to miss a couple. He shot 7 of 17...missed 2 wide open threes. And another 2 wide open jumpers...

The rest was just standard...one legged fade aways and turn arounds

[RandyMarsh1]

He is about to show Dirk who's the real boss. The same way he did to Blake.:bowdown:

Lmfao some strong selective memory there, in his 3 games against Blake this year:

- 0-3 record
- Blake scored more in 2/3 games
- Was kept to 2/14 shooting and 10 points in one game

The only time he really destroyed Blake was when he put up 45 (against Griffin's 32) but still ended up losing:roll:

[04mzwach]

Love has been destroying everybody lately and refs fu$$ him over

BULLSH--. It was NOT a foul.

That's right, dumb ***, Marion hit Love's hand, which is part of the ball. Show me any evidence otherwise f@@@@@. :lol

[vinsanity2756]

Yeah, you're really retarded. Read the rulebook:

http://www.nba.com/analysis/rules_12.html
You just keep believing that's not a foul man. I know better, and just wait for the nba to mention they "missed a call". They did so with the bryant foul on rubio last year, not that it mattered for the wolves, a loss remains a loss.
