    are you just pulling stuff of your ***? Thanks to the 3pt shot and Dallas reverting to shooting jumpers instead of continuing to be aggressive got them back in the game. Face it, they blew a lead late, they're still up 3-2 going back home. They'll close it out Thursday.

      Wow that makes like zero sense, You choke by not showing who is the better team. I define choking having a lead by 9 and not scoring to end the game that is choking.

      What you are talking about is not choking its basketball

        So what? Baron is their best player. I don't see how anyone can justify taking him out of the game on a bull**** call.

          ok, J, i've been around long enough to know that you'd argue with a stop sign. You're right, i'm wrong. Baron Davis truly is god. He's very deserving of the MVP chants he receives at Oracle Areana.

            Having a 21 point lead and letting the other team get a lead is choking, especially with a team that has playoff experience and is supposed to be the better team.

              From what i can see other than that weird off balance 3 by baron which game them the 9 pt lead he had only 2 three's in 2nd half as opposed to j rich's 4 and jackson's 2

              perhaps j rich should be shooting that 3, instead of matt barnes

                I didn't say anything like that, however he's their best player. I don't understand how you justify bull**** calls by saying that other people can make a shot. And how many of those other guys have made the last second shots that Baron has?

                  its not a bull**** call the ball was inbounded and he went into foul, then backed off, there was brief contact, but if he didnt foul there what happens they runa roundi n back court for 9 odd seconds, run clock there, see baron made the mistake being back there.

                  Thats not the refs fault now is it?

                    well, the NBA is reviewing tape to see if J-Rich pushed a fan. He says the fan pushed him. I'd hate to see the outrage in these forums if it's true and he's suspended for Game 6...

                      He didn't go in to foul anybody, he barely touched the guy and that hasn't been called for the entire series. That wasn't a foul, especially when you look at what Dallas got away with at the end of the game.

                      Both of the Dallas wins have the same thing in common, they play like **** and the refs bail them out and let them shoot free throws at the end of the game.

                        In this kind of situation, I wish I was back in the old days of the NBA when the refs leave the players alone in a very tight and close game.

                              There are plenty of bs calls, a lot of which went for Dallas I'm sure, but I don't understand getting upset over the Baron foul. The refs blow the whistle in that situation 99% of the time.

                                Without NBA, we will be talking the Miss Universe pageant. In other words, OS will still survive.
