Dirk puts down a "Dirk shot" and it looks like we'll lead at the half. :mrgreen:

Terry went into beast mode for a while there and i'm starting to wonder how so many people have underestimated Dallas. If anybody could provide the upset of the 1st round it's the Mavs.

To be fair, they haven't exactly had a brilliant season while the Thunder have been pretty good all year. The Mavs certainly have come to play though.

EDIT: MAVS leading by 1 in 0.9 seconds

Pretty good game, unfortunately the blow my favourite team suffered didn't leave me in the best of moods to enjoy it. Anyway, right down to the wire and a very friendly bounce for Durant, looks like this series is going to be more competitive than I thought. So much the better. (Y)

I'm more so angry at the ball being in Marion's hands for the last second, then not even getting a shot up in time.

The Mavs had too many silly turnovers in the 4th - especially Dirk. Could have been a win and shows that this will be a close series.

Damn it. Was fired up when I find out our local basketball channel is showing this game. Then decided to fuck it all up in the last minute and then finding out Durant winning it at the buzzer.

Yeah, that wasn't a good play to end things. In all fairness though, it was a tough spot to be in with 1.5 seconds left and no timeouts.

Miracle shot from Durant in game 1. Don't know how he got that over Marion, he couldn't have defended it much better.

There was no D anywhere near him, he could've got it off easy. Little chance of it going in, but you've got to at least get it off.

i think thunder is still adjusting.. or testing the odds.. mavericks are the depending champion,, of course they will really fight hard for that. after the adjustment.the thunders will be the thunder in the season in game 2.

Serge with 22 pts, 6 rebs, 5 blocks. He is just one of those perfect players that not just completes the Thunder lineup, but also gives them an extra boost. Damn, they're like an 8-year younger version than the Mavs, but they act mature too. :shock: strong contenders here

What are you saying? He is Kevin Durant , we know he hits big shot. So i don't see any miracle there.

Being serious though... just..... I dunno, I just hope this dosen't become the Knicks/Celtics series of last year, and OKC ends up getting to last second wins, then beats us hard on the road.
