At least for one night, Dirk played like the NBA MVP
DALLAS — The Dallas Mavericks came back in 67-win style Tuesday night, scoring the final 15 points of the game to win 118-112. Dirk Nowitzki, who had completely disappeared in the first 44 minutes, was instrumental in the win, scoring 12 of his 30 points in the final three-and-a-half minutes, including two huge three point shots sandwiched around a physical defensive stop.
Hot-headed Warriors forward Stephen Jackson was once again ejected in the final minutes for upstaging the referee. Game 6 will be in Oakland on Thursday night.

Another useless night from The Drizzle. Maybe we can trade him for chalupas.

Since nobody tried to complete my joke in the comments for the previous game I'll have to complete it here and further torture the good people...

Jackson could be suspended for Game 6 because he has two ejections in a playoff series.
Proud of Dirk and Devin for stepping up in the 4th but Stack is brutal. If he makes one shot he feels like he should be handling the ball and jacking up bad shots. Fortunately he's a free agent after this year.
We're stuck with Damp (next 4 years he gets 41 mil). Nobody will trade for him.
Glad I stayed up last night. Heck of a game!

I think everyone mistook Mortimer's sig for the punchline...
With all the Dirk related complaining that's been going on this series, I would of course like to say 41 MILLION CHALUPAS??!! Beware The Drizzle...

Doubt Jackson will be suspended, but I have no idea what could happen to Richardson:

I don't know how you can bash Stack for being a scorer. That's what he is. He senses his teammates giving up and takes all the pressure on his shoulders. It's unfortunate he's not a good passer but he never has been.
Damp's a good player against a normal sized team. He actually gives you some offensive opportunities, whereas Diop can be a liability at times (he's doing better lately).
And it's good to see somebody else give Devin props. He was out of this world to start the quarter. If the $%$ing evil refs would give him one darn call he'd be doing even better but as it is they will let the Warriors trample him right out in the middle of the floor with no call.
And I have to say, the fact that game 6 starts at 9:30 (if last night's game is an indication, it won't start until 11) SUCKS. There's no way I can stay up that late.

The Drizzle probably is pretty imposing on a group of normal sized 8 year olds, I suppose.

Did Don Nelson call Dirk, "Brewski" during the post game interview.
