GAME 74: POR (34-39) @ DAL (43-31) | 131-134 loss

[SleepingHero]

Screw that, tiny Burke didn't do anything.  Refs looking for anything to save the restart chumps.  I am counting the shot.  Mavs win.

The real travesty was calling the offensive foul on Kristaps. Trent pulls KP down, and somehow its a foul on KP.

Absolute BS

Fuck these refs. Lillard is untouchable, quite literally.

Worst officiated game of the year.

Remember the Lakers game earlier in the season. On second thought. Don´t. It was even worse.

[Hypermav]

Has KP fouled out the last 3 games he played?

[mtrot]

What a terrible shot the Mavs got there.  That was well nigh impossible.

I was at that game...

They needed it more than we did but it's still a gut punch.

[Hypermav]

Oh timmy

[SleepingHero]

Carlisle runs the play he ran for VC against the Spurs back in 2014 for the 3.

Except Hardaway is fucking as streaky as they come and he clangs it off the damn backboard. 


At least give it to Luka if we want a longshot.

I guess the refs want Mavs to play Clippers in the 1st round! ?‍♂️

[SleepingHero]

Refs did everything they could to give Portland everything they needed to win. 


Whatever. I hope they do the same in the playoffs when Portland versus the Lakers.

[Hypermav]

Dame "we wanted it more"

Ya think?

[Benskix2]

NBA badly wants Dame in the playoffs, game was straight fixed.

[ClutchDirk]

It's sad that the refs have more control on who wins or loses than the players some nights...

[SleepingHero]

Luka also played piss poor for his standards. 


Seemed exhausted. Just sit him out and have him rested for the playoffs. 6th seed out of reach now.

[Davevoid]

Same set-play as the now iconic VC shot against the Spurs. THJ shoulda taken his time and pump-faked at least once, there was ample time left.

Well Zion flamed out so Dame is the new story line.

Tbf, we got a sh#tload of calls in the fourth as well, these refs basically decided to call any little contact. Frustrating for sure, but gotta give credit to Dame Lilliard, who's a man-on-a-mission.

So Clippers 'tis, at least this game had some playoff-like intensity.
