Pistons and Mavs

[Seto]

How is it even possible for those 2 teams to be so bad 4th quarter after 4th quarter after 4th quarter?

[Seto]

Dirkkkkk!

[face]

maybe conditioning, they look tired sometimes
3rd game road trip for mavs
pistons poor shot selection/hero jump shots at the end/bad coaching

Mavs have done this like 10 times this season lol. Has nothing to do w/fatigue. Just an awful 4th quarter team, turnovers, rebounding....

Monta Ellis tends to make some really bone headed plays.

[face]

yea i'll be honest i don't know mavs as well as you
m. ellis 2 turnovers in final minutes tonight

Until tonight the Mavs haven't collapsed in such a way. Have won last 8 of 10 by double digits and are 8-2 L10 so I would say they are getting their things together minus this game against NY.

dallas really tried to give away the cover like shitcuse

[R.P. McMurphy]

Second gm in a row Dallas tanks the cover but glad they did tonight. Far as Detroit goes they have been $$ this year as a 2h fade. I really love the play when they are up at half it was quite good to me before the break. Team is trash full of stupid ,gutless players , and it goes all the way up the chain to coaching and management.

Oh really they haven't?

Losses:
@ Clippers up by 16 with 5 mins to go
@ Golden State up 6 with 1 min 30 secs to go

Near escapes:
@ Suns up 10 with 2 mins 40 secs to go (came down to last possession)
@ Cavs up 17 with 9 mins to go (came down to last possession)

And those are only the "OMG WTF" ones. Coulda also mentioned being up by 13 early in the 4th @ Atlanta and losing, being up 7 with 4 mins to go at home vs LAC and losing, being up 19 and 21 in both games vs Toronto and losing both. They always look shaky with the lead. Ask any Mavs fan.

These games were over a month ago and I was talking about their recent stretch of games?

Misread ur post, the initial "Until tonight the Mavs haven't collapsed in such a way." had me lol. My bad.

I don't really think it's gone away but time will tell. Need that #6 seed bad. Fukking Warriors are starting a run here, all that because the stupid Rockets couldn't get that last stop on Thursday when Parsons overplayed Curry. They have a tough stretch coming up need them to lose a few.

Lol its all good, and yeah agreed. Think we can beat anyone but the Thunder/Spurs but we'll see. Pretty crazy considering how well we've been playing and are still 7-8 seed

The West is a bloodbath. I don't want any part of the Thunder or Clippers because they're the 2 best teams in my mind and don't want any part of the Spurs either as they're a bad matchup.

Portland or Houston would be ok. I mean still the underdog obviously.
