I cant believe Stackhouse screwed up on that FT, Robert Horry actually got a shot off and it may have been close had it been a bit more to the right and not hit the side of the back board, lol.

But I loved Dirk's reaction to it "I wondered what the hell he was doing"

Nice calling out your teammates :D

Woohoo Go Dallas! On a roll and ready to knock off the Spurs as the top NBA team in Texas. Can't wait for Nash vs. Dirk rematch next round.

I think its about time that dallas get over the spurs. Dallas always have a very good regular season and can't finish it off. They're always been road blocked by kings, suns, spurs. Now that the spurs are getting old and have banged up players they should beat them. The core of their team is so deep and young compared to the spurs. I'm not surprised if they go on to win the series coz they are better and younger. No more excuses.

wtf was Stack doing....doesn't he know the rules? :P

Mavs defense is still suss though, when Spurs moved the ball well they were able to get plenty of space and Mavs players just dont know how to close out properly and they end up biting on the fake.

Still, i think they'll win because Spurs have no answer for Harris, but Mavs should give more of the ball to Dirk.

Great game, Spurs came back and almost got the win. If Tim Duncan stayed in for them longer. :x

Stackhouse has become the Comic Relief of the Mavs 06' Playoff run.
Between that FreeThrow shot, the missed 3 in game 1,

It all adds up! I can't wait to see what his antics are in game 4 :x

Everyone says the Mavs defense is still bad... if that's the case then the Spurs must be horrible, because they've given up a ton of points this series...

Yeah, the Spurs are done. I think they will lose it in game 6. I see the Spurs winning at home in game 5. I will shocked if they make it to game 7.

Very important win for the Mavs. Just no need to think that Spurs are defeated already.

at 3-1 up Mavs still have a HUGE amount of work to do. The pressure on their shoulders is immense right now, they can't panic and just keep composure.

spurs in 7. harris, terry, and stack will acidentally collidide in the first, which in turn will set off psycho-dirk who responds by choking all three to death simultaneously while swearing profusely in what seems to be german - but isn't. you heard it here first.

i wouldnt be surprised if Spurs do win in 7. Right now though Mavs have confidence and if Spurs crush that then they'll win. It could have just as well been 3-1 to Spurs so this series is far from over.

I could see the Mavs loosing game 5 but winning game 6 at home and ending it.
(Hey, they MIGHT even win game 5?)

Great series so far (Y)

yep, luvin' what the Mavs are doing right now....luvin' that Devin Harris is stepping up (he use to be a 2nd option behind Kirk Penney at Wisconsin so I have a soft spot for him)....hope the Mavs move on & then advance to the Finals & win it all....one can only hope after all :P

I see nothing that indicates the Spurs will win... they can't defend at all, and that's been their main strength all year.

Dallas is proving to be match-up hell for Popovich. I'm starting to like Mark Jackson's prediction that they'll win it all this year.

It's hard to suggest San Antonio has a chance of pulling off the comeback without downplaying what Dallas has done so far but I too still think it's a possibility. We've seen it happen once already this year. Still, while I think it's possible I don't like the Spurs chances unless they win Game 5 in dominating fashion and cause a huge momentum swing they can ride in Games 6 and 7.
