This is the Mavs-Kings. There is no defense played. There IS no defense in this game.

AND MILLER JUST SHOVED HIM AGAIN! SHOVED JAMISON AFTER THE PLAY! CALL A FREAKIN' TECH ALREADY!

And don't say 'Grow up' or anything like that. Has Miller or has Miller not shoved players for no reason.

Of course there's defense, otherwise the score would be 160-158...but there's just so little of it. If fouls were called, the game would be slowed down because players want to protect themselves from being ejected and they usually tend to be less aggressive offensively which leads to less aggressive defense, in most cases. You've watched enough of the NBA game to know that...or at least you SHOULD know that.

As for the tech...it's not like it was a hard shove. Otherwise Jamison would've swung at him. Pushes like this happen quite often in the NBA game, calling them would be frugal. I remembered early in the game Finley shoved Christie a bit...but the officials didn't call that.

Jamison has never swung at anyone in his life. He's a hard-working, humble Christian. And with Daniels it was a hard shove. And they missed a travel on Webber. He changed his pivot foot again. Atleast they called it on Christie.

And don't be a smartass about the "defense" played.

EDIT: Even if the Kings end up winning this game, the Mavs would have still averaged more points than them in the series. Weird.

Oh well. Still a close series though. You can't deny that. So what if it was 4-1? The Mavericks were 3 shots away from winning the series. They just came up short.

This is why I don't doctor pitcures to make Nash look like Quasimodo or something. It always comes beack to bite you in the butt.

I said this last year and I'll say it again, the Kings and the Lakers are forever linked. When one advances, the other does. Last year I was upset when the Lakers lost to SA because I knew it was the end for the Kings (yeah they lost Webber in that series, but I wasn't too concerned. Sac is the only good team that is still a good team without their star player, proven this year). Sacramento will not win an NBA championship without getting revenge on Los Angeles. So go Kings (and Lakers )! And Denver too, might as well make it a little easier on them.

Watch the flames of calling people idiots, guys.

Anyone else looking forward to Pistons - Nets second round? That has the potential to be VERY interesting, even if neither team makes it to the finals.

Take care all.

Like I said earlier...whoever wins in this SA-LA matchup will win the title. I just can't fathom anyone else winning it. Minnesota has a decent shot, and I think Detroit and Indiana stand a better chance than Sacramento. Giving up that many points always seems to spell doom for the team.

Nash doesn't look like Quasimodo. But Bibby does look like Mini-Me. (you can't deny it...)

And I would just like to point out that I never called Dingo an idiot. I called him a smartass.

[Del Murder]

But you have to admit that Nash is one ugly sumbitch. Not to knock his ability, he's a great player. He's just no Rick Fox (in his earlier days).

Sacramento can beat Minnesota. Can Sacramento beat the other two? Yes. Just like Houston could have beaten LA, like Dallas could have beaten Sac, but not like the Bucs could have beaten Detroit. That just wasn't going to happen. There is still a chance for the Kings! They have enough talent to get it done.
