I already know the answer Metta, he can't. I double Shaq every step of the way.
BTW - that telecast news is crap. I think Cuban is hiding the obvious problem...the Mavs aren't playing well, that's why ratings are down. It's been a popular topic around here...most seem to agree that Cuban is reaching. Though if they canned Skin that would be a good start.
I understand why you say that Damp can't do it. I don't necessarily agree but I say give Damp a chance to earn his money the 1st few trips down the floor.
I will admit I have a sentimental attachment to Big Bob (and maybe more to Fake Ortegel...the nickname bit was one of the most underrated Ticket bits of all time)
"We're not going to see a lot of ticky tack fouls" when talking about Barnes push off on JJB. But JJB just got called for the same thing... maybe cuban should fire these guys.
Are Jabbawockeez something Shiffler should like? I want to hate them, but for some reason I can't. Maybe they are just something Shiffler is indifferent on
Although in hindsight they must be grading on a curve...after all superb d in PHX is like the Rangers get a Quality Start and calling it Superb Pitching
Ammanuel - Kristin is in Philly shooting a new pilot, but Shoppa and I think Paige will be there. Also, I'm gonna ask Rachel Callahan to join us. Layla will be in Houston Sat morning, she'll fly back and meet us on L Greenville.
Look at the CYA by the Suns sideline reporter. They're now saying that a 5 game defecit is not insurmountable. Comparing the GS team that beat Dallas and went 16-5 down the stretch.
If the Suns lose, they are out of it. Even if they did go 16-5 and make the playoffs, they are in a worse position personnel-wise than Dallas is. They are trying to play run and gun basketball with an aging point guard and their 3 fastest players injured/traded/gone.
and the answer to who is the Suns color guy who claimed to play with Dirk...Scott Williams who played a whopping 27 games for Dallas in 2003-2004: http://www.basketballreference.com/players/playerpage.htm?ilkid=WILLISC01
Yeah, I think I'm with Jan there. At least Bowen has game. He's a great defender and he's dirty to make his team better. Barnes is just flat out dirty. I hate Barnes more.
Great Pic Shiff
ReplyDeleteI can't decide who looks like the biggest dork
ReplyDeleteThat answer is always Cuban.
ReplyDeleteLooks Like J-Ho is out tonight and tomorrow for sure...and maybe the rest of the month
ReplyDeleteI say you let Damp play Shaq straight up for the 1st few minutes and see if he can hang...thoughts?
ReplyDeleteI already know the answer Metta, he can't. I double Shaq every step of the way.
ReplyDeleteBTW - that telecast news is crap. I think Cuban is hiding the obvious problem...the Mavs aren't playing well, that's why ratings are down. It's been a popular topic around here...most seem to agree that Cuban is reaching. Though if they canned Skin that would be a good start.
I think your jealous of Skin.
ReplyDeleteI understand why you say that Damp can't do it. I don't necessarily agree but I say give Damp a chance to earn his money the 1st few trips down the floor.
I will admit I have a sentimental attachment to Big Bob (and maybe more to Fake Ortegel...the nickname bit was one of the most underrated Ticket bits of all time)
ReplyDeleteNice set play to open the game for PHX.
ReplyDeleteDamn. Game blacked out on League Pass and I'm not at home... I'll follow the comments and watch the gamecast
ReplyDeleteBarnes guarded Dirk in the GS series...i thought it was Barnes and two other Warriors
ReplyDeleteJJB gets the start?
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised that they don't put Kidd on Nash.
ReplyDeleteAmmanuel, its your favorite player Matt Barnes
ReplyDeleteJan - www.channelsurfing.net
ReplyDeleteI don't think they want Ki playing Nash..I think the last 20 games against fast guards has proven that.
ReplyDeleteJJB Bithces...my bad!
ReplyDeleteJJB is on fire...good call on the start
ReplyDeleteDirk needs to take Barnes to the hole...quit shooting Js...he's beneath you....beat his ass up.
ReplyDeleteJan you coming up to Dallas for St Pattys?
ReplyDeleteCool. Got it. Thx. Do you have to download that uStream thing?

ReplyDeleteDirk...and 1 on your boy Barnes
ReplyDeleteDunk that JJB!
ReplyDeleteJan - works okay with FF, but maybe.
ReplyDeleteI hope Cuban is listening to these guys....makes Followill and Bob look like Emmy winners
ReplyDeleteWho added the "who we follow" pics? Those are money...nice work.
ReplyDeleteMetta - are you getting the PHX feed?
ReplyDeleteIf JJB dunks the ball, I might have Glenlevit come out of my nose.
ReplyDeleteOne guy sounds like a cross between Jim Rome and the Hulkster
ReplyDeleteI'm on NBA TV
ReplyDeleteI'm getting my slingbox fixed this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI guess Singleton is infront of Bass now in the rotation.
I like it. Motivate Bass...he needs to play pissed.
It's Devin George Time!
ReplyDeleteShiff...your favorite Mav of all time just checked in...DG.
ReplyDeleteBTW..new Anquan Boldin trade scenario.
ReplyDeleteThat's it...I am buying a Big City Sliders station. I am SOLD.
ReplyDeleteI'm getting the Phoenix feed. The announcer just said "We hope its another loss tonight" for the Mavs. Way to not hide your bias at all.
ReplyDeleteOr maybe this is the NBA tv feed. Still...
ReplyDeleteNBA TV is usually has the home team feed
ReplyDeleteGeez. Terry and Nash are doing whatever they want.
ReplyDeleteThe announcers are so pro phoenix
ReplyDeleteHUGE 2 for 1. Nice Kidd.
ReplyDeleteWell, that foul kinda F's everything up now.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking for 45 shots b/w Dirk and Jet. What are we at now?
ReplyDeletenice first quarter offense. crappy first quarter defense.
ReplyDeleteMy highlight of Q1: DG standing on the perimeter waving furiously for the ball while Bass knocks down the J
ReplyDeletePretty good 1st. Dirk needs to be a little punishing on his defenders.
ReplyDeleteThese announcers are ridiculous.
LOL...when was the DG thing...I want to rewind.
ReplyDeleteDirk 4-11, Terry 2-4
ReplyDeleteright before the end of the Qtr..about 20 seconds
ReplyDeleteJust found it...its at the 10 sec mark...great find Shiff
ReplyDeleteAnyone checked the Wickipedia on Barnes lately? Or do you both read it daily?
ReplyDeletewho added the "who we follow pics?" I like 'em.
ReplyDeleteI did them...
ReplyDeleteha ha... George dribbles out of bounds
ReplyDeleteWouldn't you rather see anyone else getting minutes that DG? I'm gonna check his PER.
ReplyDeleteTurnover George...
ReplyDeleteYeah...you, shif, JB, Jason...should I go on.
ReplyDeleteI don't care if DG is in the game, as long as he plays D and does not touch the ball
ReplyDeleteThis guy should be a shooting coach...f announcing.
ReplyDeleteAs I suspected, of all the players who get even a few minutes per game, only Carroll has a lower PER than DG.
ReplyDeletebad call.
ReplyDeleteThe Damp experiment is over.
ReplyDeleteAnyone want to trade for Dragich?
"We're not going to see a lot of ticky tack fouls" when talking about Barnes push off on JJB. But JJB just got called for the same thing... maybe cuban should fire these guys.
ReplyDeletedamp almost stole that... whoa... go stone hands
ReplyDeleteBarnes has answered the defensive bell....wtf? Dirk had 9 in the 1st
ReplyDeleteI wish they had AI follow up that little girl in this NBA Cares commercial
ReplyDeletemaybe when Dragic stops looking like he's 12.
ReplyDeleteOh shit.....PER
ReplyDeleteSuns just got fd on that shot clock.
ReplyDeleteCrap foul call
ReplyDeleteCan we change the comments so that every other is a different shade? I'm gonna look into that.
ReplyDeleteWe should look into a "live chat" html program that we could post
ReplyDeleteJJ Pepes will be popn' this week for the JJB Show.
ReplyDeleteHas Dirk been out the entire 2nd qtr?
ReplyDeleteYea, Dirk got a nice rest there
ReplyDeleteI need a Dirk post dunk to shut these announcers up...its really grinding how they say Barnes has nullified Dirk.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised that Kidd didn't lean into Nash on that 3 a second ago...looked like an easy 3 FTs.
ReplyDeleteDirk can pull that move every time on that punk.
ReplyDeleteThe Phx announcer keeps on saying that Barnes does a good job of not going for those "Dirty Pump Fakes" by Dirk. No bias...none at all.
ReplyDeleteglad it's not only me that hears it... these guys are ridiculous
ReplyDeleteStack dressed for this game?
ReplyDeleteAre Jabbawockeez something Shiffler should like? I want to hate them, but for some reason I can't. Maybe they are just something Shiffler is indifferent on
ReplyDeleteNo Jabbawockeez are cool...anything w/a Jedi type name is ok to like.
ReplyDeleteSay what you want...Wright steps up when we are someone is out of the line up.
ReplyDeleteI like Wright...he has really grown this season.
ReplyDeleteI feel pretty good about the 2nd half. This game is very manageable
ReplyDeleteLate freakin whistle.
ReplyDeleteLate fn whistle
ReplyDeleteLets go Dirk
ReplyDeleteThere you go Dirk...nice shot and the foul
ReplyDeleteI like Hollins play right now.
ReplyDeleteRyan Hollins is playing much better than Ericka Dampier
ReplyDeleteI think the athletic play is a good change. You got to changed the temp against shaq
ReplyDeleteNice tip by Hollins...his energy has been great.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if it was DGs comments last week but this team seems to be doing a better job of communinicating on defense.
ReplyDeleteWhat are those jholes saying about Barnes now?
ReplyDeleteDirty Pump Fake Muth$a&u#k*rs!
ReplyDeleteI think Barnes has fallen for the pump fake every time
ReplyDeleteThey're saying that Dirk is starting to get in a groove even though Barnes has played superb d
ReplyDelete29 shots so far by Dirk and Jet, I need another 16 over the final 12+
ReplyDeleteIf they put up a "text the booth" # let me know.
ReplyDeleteDirk was just a little off on his shot in the first half. Just b/c Barnes was standing in front of him while he was missing doesn't make it superb d
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm gonna have to say that there is virtually no way to defend that last one.
ReplyDeleteAlthough in hindsight they must be grading on a curve...after all superb d in PHX is like the Rangers get a Quality Start and calling it Superb Pitching
ReplyDeleteBarnes pulled that same sh*t v. JJB in the first qtr. WOW! Did you see that replay? Man, F Barnes.
ReplyDeleteyou think Barnes pushed off a bit there?
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Cuban will send it in to the league.
ReplyDeleteThat's Dirk only real flaw, the slap D. He's gotta let him have that, or get a hard foul.
ReplyDelete11 more shots Kevin
ReplyDeleteI hope Dirk goes Chris Brown on Barnes
ReplyDeletetoo soon?
ReplyDeleteKevin, are Shoppa and Kristen coming up for St Patty's
ReplyDeleteha ha ha... yes- too soon.
ReplyDeleteyea, probably
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to make it up for St. Patty's.
ReplyDeleteWTF....how is that an offensive foul?
ReplyDeleteWTF was that?
ReplyDeleteAmmanuel - Kristin is in Philly shooting a new pilot, but Shoppa and I think Paige will be there. Also, I'm gonna ask Rachel Callahan to join us. Layla will be in Houston Sat morning, she'll fly back and meet us on L Greenville.
ReplyDeleteIs I'm on a Boat the theme this year?
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to make it up. Hope's BDay weekend. Her actual bday is tomorrow btw.
ReplyDeleteDirk has to quit pikcing his nose during games.
ReplyDeleteKevin Vela-If it going to rain Sat...I'm not running.
ReplyDeleteIf that happens, can I stay w/you on Friday night.
I like this 2nd unit...all athletic and quick
ReplyDeleteI wanted "I'm on a boat" but I have very little input since most of the materials, construction location and manpower is not coming from me.
ReplyDeleteNext year we'll have a much cooler theme.
Metta - no prob on Fri night. Shoppa and I are planning on taking it easy so we can be fully rested for Sat.
minus DG...put Singleton back in
ReplyDeleteI've noticed that Nash just can't get around opposing guards like he used to.
ReplyDeletewhat was it you were saying about this second team...
ReplyDeleteI'm bying a Bass shirt this weekend. We need to pick it up on D...just need a 4 minute push here of good defense and good offensive ball movement.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I spoke too soon...but I like Hollins and Bass in the frontcourt together as long as its not for too long.
ReplyDeleteshot count at 37 for Dirk and Terry
ReplyDeleteThat was a cheapie...I'll take it. We deserve one after Barnes all game.
ReplyDeleteNice D Hollins!
ReplyDeleteT up Barnes...
Barnes is a punk
ReplyDeletethere's barnes great D again... geez...
ReplyDeleteI like it Dirk...way to be physical.
ReplyDeleteDirk just got like 4 shots for you Kevin
ReplyDeleteNice Dirk
ReplyDeleteHOLY SH*T. Are you kidding me DIRK???
ReplyDeleteWho is the Suns color guy...he said he played w/Dirk in Dallas?
ReplyDeleteShiff aka points guru..will Dirk hit 40?
ReplyDeleteno, he ends up with 38
ReplyDeleteLook at the CYA by the Suns sideline reporter. They're now saying that a 5 game defecit is not insurmountable. Comparing the GS team that beat Dallas and went 16-5 down the stretch.
ReplyDeleteLets go boys...one more push here...good offensive decisions and defense.
ReplyDeletegood- took them a while to score.
ReplyDeleteDouble Dirk, pass to Kidd for the 3...I love it
ReplyDeleteI think the balding kidd w/no shaven head is better shooter than the completely shaven head kidd
ReplyDeleteYES!!!
ReplyDeleteIf the Suns lose, they are out of it. Even if they did go 16-5 and make the playoffs, they are in a worse position personnel-wise than Dallas is. They are trying to play run and gun basketball with an aging point guard and their 3 fastest players injured/traded/gone.
Its not over yet...Nash can still hit a couple 3's and make it interesting
ReplyDeleteCome on Mavs
ReplyDeleteGet a fn stop. Quit playing like some bitches....play how you have for the entire fourth quarter.
ReplyDeleteWe might have slept on Shiff's comment earlier about JJB.
ReplyDeleteStarting him was really a key part of how this team started and played throughout.
make these fn FTs
ReplyDeleteNow they are talking about college bb
ReplyDeleteyes. bye barnes
ReplyDeleteWho do you hate worse? Bowen/Barnes
ReplyDeleteRight at 45 shots for Jet and Dirk...
ReplyDeleteand the answer to who is the Suns color guy who claimed to play with Dirk...Scott Williams who played a whopping 27 games for Dallas in 2003-2004:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.basketballreference.com/players/playerpage.htm?ilkid=WILLISC01
Oooh, nice Jan. I don't think I can choose...but I can't think of any sports figure that like less than either of those guys.
ReplyDeleteNot to be confused with the great Dennis Scott. Shiff, can we get an 8th grade pic of you in a DScott jersey?
ReplyDeleteI got Bowen...hands down. He's way dirtier
ReplyDeleteI don't think I have any pictures of me in my D Scott jersey...I think I always hid from the camera because I was too embarassed
ReplyDeletealthough D Scott did make SSL
ReplyDeleteVirtual handshake boys...way to get off the snide and get a road win.
ReplyDeleteEven if it was agains the lowly suns.
Wow, what a give up by the Suns. Nice win boys.
ReplyDeleteAgreed that Bowen is dirtier but Barnes can inspire more dislike
ReplyDeletenice win...this pretty much puts the Mavs in the playoffs. Time to put together a little run and get to the 4 seed
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think I'm with Jan there. At least Bowen has game. He's a great defender and he's dirty to make his team better. Barnes is just flat out dirty. I hate Barnes more.
ReplyDeleteTomorrow night is the NO game redux...on the road against a tough team coming off a back to back. Let's see if the boys have grown since last week.
ReplyDeleteI'd rather have Bowens on my team any day over Matt Vela Barnes
ReplyDeleteBowen plays for SA...therefore I hate him more. If it were flipped I might go Barnes. I still hate Antoine Walker more than both of them combined
ReplyDeletealright Gents, good work tonight. I's gonna be in and out tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteChris Webber giving Dirk props...he said he's seen big change in Dirk's leadership and assertieness
ReplyDeleteYou had to go there, huh Metta. I'd watch his and YOUR wikipedia page over the next few days...
ReplyDeleteSee you boys tomorrow night.
