[moe94]

Might as we be the playoffs. Stakes are so high you can eat it.

#corny

[Fudge]

Get em Dallas.

**** PHX and their overachieving asses.

[Uncle Drew]

Nothing against the Suns, but I hope the Mavs win this one. The playoffs need Dirk.

[buddha]

definitely gonna watch this one

[aboss4real24]

if dirk has a big game mavs will win


If he doesnt suns will take it

[Bobcats2013]

If the Mavs lose does that mean the Grizzlies game on Wed is win or go home for a playoff spot?

[Uncle Drew]

How is Dragic' ankle doing? Missed last nights game due to a sprain.

[EricGordon23]

How is Dragic' ankle doing? Missed last nights game due to a sprain.

he is supposed to play tonight. he wanted to played yesterday but they really wanted him not to push it so he can put it all on the line for tonights game.

[DirkNowitzki41]

If the Mavs lose does that mean the Grizzlies game on Wed is win or go home for a playoff spot?

yep.

They got 2 chances to clinch, but they should go all out tonight. I dont think we can go on the road vs a healthy MEM team with it all on the line and come up with a W... so i treat the suns game as do or die

[CrazyLond]

If Dallas wins, they clinch and Memphis is a virtual lock for the other seed because they would be a game ahead of Phoenix in the loss column and own the tiebreaker.

If Phoenix wins, they are a virtual lock for a playoff seed because they would be a game ahead of Dallas in the loss column and own that tiebreaker. The Dallas-Memphis game would almost certainly decide the last spot because Dallas has the tiebreaker against Memphis.

I'd say it's a big game tonight. I'd love to see Phoenix win, but I do not know if they can do so on the road against a Dallas team fighting for their own playoff lives.

[Mrofir]

Suns win by 17

Birdie told me

[EricGordon23]

Are you ready folks

Im pumped for this and I hope the refs don't ruin this game

[Johnny Jones]

Frye too clutch!!!

[EricGordon23]

I hate watching ellis play D

[DirkNowitzki41]

frye looking like ray allen.. seriously?

[EricGordon23]

bledsoe turnover machine so far

[Mrofir]

109-92

[DMV2]

Suns interior so weak.

Poor inside D cost Phoenix that lead.

[DirkNowitzki41]

shane larkin!!!! :rockon: :rockon:

[EricGordon23]

Dragic should have taken that last shot

[EricGordon23]

shane larkin!!!! :rockon: :rockon:

I haven't watched the mavs all that much this year

What can you tell me about brandon wright?

[DirkNowitzki41]

I haven't watched the mavs all that much this year

What can you tell me about brandon wright?

great finisher, and inconsistent rebounder/defender. its all about match ups for him

he has alot of trouble with strong bigs as they easily push him around. although he is a monster against teams with weak interior D.

nice back up big who did you like more ian mahinmi or brandon wright?

Man i dislike ish smith

[DirkNowitzki41]

nice back up big who did you like more ian mahinmi or brandon wright?

Man i dislike ish smith

both are solid but i'd go with wright. mahinmi was good for stretches but he'd always make silly mistakes and get in foul trouble

[SAKOTXA]

Godsoe!! :rockon:

[EricGordon23]

I hope the media doesn't destroy the duo of bledsoe/dragic

[DMV2]

That Suns backcourt, though, so scary.

[SAKOTXA]

This suns team is so fun to watch. All they need some help in the interior and they'll be scary.

[blackification]

I hope the media doesn't destroy the duo of bledsoe/dragic
The only thing that could possibly destroy it is maxing Bledsoe while paying dragic so little in comparison.

[DirkNowitzki41]

jesus christ. this overachieving suns team cant miss a shot it seems

[DirkNowitzki41]

dirk chose a bad game to suck ass

[SAKOTXA]

Godsoeee!

[EricGordon23]

bledsoe wants this!

[SAKOTXA]

Bledsoe is a warrior.

[blackification]

bledsoe making up for those turnovers

that three was ruthless

[EricGordon23]

ellis clutch floater

[DMV2]

Fun first half.

By the way, this is the second NBA game I've watched all season long.

[EricGordon23]

Fun first half.

By the way, this is the second NBA game I've watched all season long.

You picked a good one then.

[MavsPoke]

CHanning ****ing frye can't miss.

:confusedshrug:

[MavsPoke]

Suns 60.5% 75.0% 71.4%

Mavs defense :hammerhead:

[Wavves]

Tuning into the game now, huge game for both teams.

[LONGTIME]

Dirk is playing like shit.

[LONGTIME]

:biggums: Frye finally misses.

[EricGordon23]

dirk with the nice shot over frye

[Young X]

Can Phoenix still make the 6th seed?

[EricGordon23]

can't let dirk get hot

[DMV2]

Dallas interior D is also butt ugly. :lol

[EricGordon23]

this is a game now!

bledsoe too many turnovers this game is too important for that

[LONGTIME]

Dallas back in it.

[DMV2]

Monta b2b triples. Mavs back in it.

[Young X]

Dirk :applause:

[LONGTIME]

Dirk feeling it now.

[r0drig0lac]

Dirk :bowdown:

[DMV2]

Now Dirk with b2b 3's. Wow!

[dazzer87]

Dirk......:pimp:

[EricGordon23]

14 in the Q for dirk but bledsoe quiets the crowd with the and 1

[navy]

Mavericks straight chucking. Pray it last.

[DMV2]

Bad call, Monta was still moving.

[EricGordon23]

this game is insane!!!!

[L8krH8tr]

Carter is blowing this game

[Uncle Drew]

Holy shit, if Dragic got that off.

[navy]

Goaltend

[DirkNowitzki41]

carter is a bum. reminding everyone why he is a career loser

dirk and ellis tho :bowdown:

[EricGordon23]

damn dragic if you got that!

[livinglegend]

That was a goaltend. :facepalm
What a great play that was by Dragic, ruined by the refs.

[raiderfan19]

Goaltend
Travelled first

[raiderfan19]

Everyone can stop bitching about the goaltend. Dragic travelled before he shot it

[Young X]

Who has the tiebreaker between GS and PHO/GS and DAL?

[LONGTIME]

Jose Calderon going to do something in this game?

[navy]

Dirk has to play. He can rest later.

[Uncle Drew]

Dirk :bowdown:

[DMV2]

Goddamn, none of these guys can miss....well, only Vince Carter misses.

[LoneyROY7]

Monta Ellis have it all.

[DirkNowitzki41]

ellis is a stud

[L8krH8tr]

Get carter out of the this game !

[DirkNowitzki41]

bad call.

[EricGordon23]

carter getting robbed

[DMV2]

Carter fouling out would actually help the Mavs out. :lol

[DirkNowitzki41]

Carter fouling out would actually help the Mavs out. :lol

no kidding.

would much rather see wayne ellington

[DMV2]

Wright quietly putting on a solid game.

Dirk gives Dallas their first lead since the 2nd Q.

[Uncle Drew]

What. A. Game!

[EricGordon23]

dragic step up!

[LONGTIME]

Dirk forgot how to pass out of a double team...

[Uncle Drew]

Dirk wants this win. :rockon:

[Uncle Drew]

And so does Monta Havitall.

[EricGordon23]

Phoenix throwing this game away

[livingby3's]

Channing and Bledsoe :facepalm

[Im Still Ballin]

exciting stuff

[raiderfan19]

Dirk is seriously gassed

[livingby3's]

Still time left, Dragic needs to take over. N fK Frye

[DMV2]

Biggest shot by Harris since that crazy halfshot he had with the Nets. :lol

[navy]

Suns choked this game away.

Dallas and Memphis it is.

[Uncle Drew]

Dirk hurt.

[JimmyMcAdocious]

What was Marion doing? :oldlol:

[DirkNowitzki41]

oh **** no

[LONGTIME]

Marion wtf :oldlol:

[livingby3's]

Bledsoe sucks at making plays

[DMV2]

Carter will get the Suns back in. :lol

LOL...just like that Dirk back in , Carter out.

[LONGTIME]

Dirk better suck it up and get back in there.

[navy]

Dallas fans cant complain about the refs after this.

[Uncle Drew]

This is Monta's night.

[raiderfan19]

That was off Vince we got a break

[raiderfan19]

3 seconds???

You can make 5 shot fakes in the lane???

[Bosnian Sajo]

Great game, Monta balling :applause:

[DMV2]

Monta :facepalm

[EricGordon23]

bledsoe selfish more turnovers than assists

[Uncle Drew]

Down to two.

[LONGTIME]

Suns not folding.

[Bosnian Sajo]

Jinxed em :applause:

[DirkNowitzki41]

[Fudge]

Goodness, I fcuking hate PHX.

[navy]

Carlisle is an idiot for trying that again.

[livingby3's]

bledsoe selfish more turnovers than assists

He lost the Suns the game vs the Spurs too

[navy]

bledsoe selfish more turnovers than assists
False. Just a terrible passer.

[EricGordon23]

Lost the game vs the Spurs too

I missed that game. only caught the box score so i can't really comment on it

[raiderfan19]

Inexcusable ref

[DirkNowitzki41]

****ing terrible refs

[Uncle Drew]

Choke.

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Both teams choking so hard.

[truhooper]

VC :facepalm

[DMV2]

Why is Carter back in? :facepalm

[LONGTIME]

A Carter three... really? :oldlol:

[dazzer87]

VC with hero ball.....:roll: :roll: :roll:

[raiderfan19]

Off bledsoe

[navy]

Choke.

[EricGordon23]

False. Just a terrible passer.

I should have put a period in there was pointing out that hes selfish than pointing out that he had more turnovers than assists.

Yeah he takes too many risky passes

[livingby3's]

I should have put a period in there was pointing out that hes selfish than pointing out that he had more turnovers than assists.

He does play selfish at times though. But we got to get rid of Frye this off season

[EricGordon23]

He does play selfish at times though. But we got to get rid of Frye this off season


he's young I am sure he will learn.

bledsoe 11 - 14 damn!

[Uncle Drew]

Choke

[Fudge]

Bunch of chokers on both sides.

[DirkNowitzki41]

dirk getting hurt really screwed us up...

[livingby3's]

Its now or never

[LONGTIME]

Big miss by Monta.

[Clyde]

[JimmyMcAdocious]

[truhooper]

Wright :eek:

[Uncle Drew]

Facepalmworthy.

[DMV2]

Wright was MVP of the game. :applause:

[r0drig0lac]

clutch defense

[EricGordon23]

Wright seals the game most likely unless ellis chokes right here

[Uncle Drew]

Monta choked again...

[LONGTIME]

Monta :oldlol:

[Fudge]

Choke again :facepalm

This game could've been over.

[EricGordon23]

ellis choking hard!!!!!

[DirkNowitzki41]

WTF

[DMV2]

Great game, Monta balling :applause:
Monta's been shit since you posted this. :oldlol:

[navy]

Chokers

[Young X]

Who honestly didn't think Monta was gonna choke?

[Uncle Drew]

GAME OVER, DALLAS IS IN THE PLAYOFFS fdsfdsf

[truhooper]

Morris instead of Green shooting :roll:

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Morris for 3 for real? Where the Dragon at?

[LONGTIME]

Suns :oldlol:

[Bosnian Sajo]

Bye bye, Phoenix :oldlol:

[EricGordon23]

morris really morris with the last shot.... and its a 3 GTFO dallas deserves it good for them

[DirkNowitzki41]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[DMV2]

Amazing game.

Wright won the Mavs this game with 2nd half interior plays.

[Fudge]

:oldlol:

Fcuk the Suns. Lucky they were even in this game.

Good shit, Dallas.

[EricGordon23]

congrats mavs fans

[livingby3's]

Its done

[Uncle Drew]

So Dallas and Memphis are going to the playoffs.

[Young X]

Dallas :applause:

[The Sting]

Stupid **** drew up a 3pt shot for Morris are you kidding me?????? Seriously WTF??

[DMV2]

So Dallas and Memphis are going to the playoffs.
Dallas in.

Phoenix needs to outright have a better record than Memphis. MEM owns the tie-breaker.

[rep602]

Well now Dallas doesn't have a reason to beat Memphis for their final game of the season. Crap...

Well should be an interesting off season for the Suns. Need a veteran presence to go along with whoever we get in FA.

7th or 8th seed is still on the line i believe for Dal. Phx does not really deserve to go

[Marlo_Stanfield]

Dallas has a good chance to give the Thunder hell, just like Memphis.
dallas always gives the Thunder a nice fight and can contain Durant pretty well.
Memphis has Tony Allen for Durant DPOX Marc protecting the tim. Conley is one of the few PG who can somewhat stay with Chuckbrook

I dont think Conley even guards Brook

Sorry, Memphis or Dallas aren't beating OKC. OKC are getting to the finals and the Heat stand no chance (if they even make it at all). Your insecurity is funny :oldlol:

[MavsPoke]

Mavs back in the Playoffs!!!

Me at the end of the game.

That's a pretty dumb statement. Any of the 3 teams deserve to be there if they win their final games.

[DMAVS41]

Wow...what a game.

Mavs really fortunate that happened to be at home.

I hope the Suns make it...so much respect for them. GG Suns fans...you guys deserve to make it.

[MavsPoke]

That's a pretty dumb statement. Any of the 3 teams deserve to be there if they win their final games.

Agreed.

It sucks that any of the 3 teams... and 4 if you include the Timberwolves who are just loaded with talent...don't make the playoffs, but some of these eastern teams do.

The west is so stacked this year. Too bad that some really great teams are going to be left out of the playoffs.

[rep602]

Agreed.

Agreed. The east will have some laughable first round match ups while the west is going to be a war.

Wow...what a game.

I hope the Suns make it...so much respect for them. GG Suns fans...you guys deserve to make it.

Going to the playoffs will help the Suns going forward, but I guess the better team won tdy. Bad plays down the final minutes and Mavs hung on. Dirk going out and Ellis missing those FTs gave us a chance, but we blew it. Not bad actually for a team with only that amount of experience in situations like this. Overall a good season, Suns still have flexibility to get much better than this.
Win or lose Suns fan for life.

[BlackVVaves]

The T-Wolves do not deserve shit, they've been wetting the bed since December :no:

Not sure who was the better team tonight to be honest. Mavs just were at home...that was the difference in my opinion.

I like the Grizzlies as well, but this Suns teams is just so much more fun to watch. I really hope they make it...

[andremiller07]

Best game of basketball I watched all year wow what a game, Monta and Dirk came up huge and Brandon Wright just makes those extra effort plays that win games.
