dont take it the wrong way the mavs wouldnt have been there with out him. and i love him and what hes done with the mavs. but since he bought the mavs 6 years ago hes critisized the ref and david stern on how the games are called. could the way the refs called the games be atributed to that? david stern is probally laughing his butt off right now and telling all his friends "that will teach him" it has to be for some reason because no games have ever been called that badly before. i dont think david stern would want the mavs to win because of that .cuban has quit and now david cant fine him all the millions he was. it could be his way of getting backat him? and the fans and team are paying for it.GO MAVS!!!!!!!! THE REFS TOOK YOUR CHAMPIONSHIP FROM YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And to the heat fans know this your championship is tarnished even if stricktly by game 5 watch it no made field goals in third period but u still score 27 points?

No. There is no conspiracy. the ref's made good calls for both teams and made bad calls for both. They need some sort of replay added to the game or something. The Mavs lost pure and simple. It sucks if your a mavs fan yes! It made no difference to me who won this series.

cuban did go on national TV and say that the series was over when the mavs were up 2-0. maybe he jinxed them.
and what the hell are you talking about game 5, 3rd period...no field goals but 27 points? maybe you're blind or something...lol! you're saying they made 27 free throws in the third period which means they made 5 in the other 3 quarters. what a joke! try actually watching the game next time...
again, more crying by the mavs fans. i'm not even a heat fan but there was nothing wrong with the officiating. OMG we were up 2-0 and we somehow lost...it must be the refs! the heat championship is not tarnished lol. just wishful thinking from you...when you go to sleep tonight, you can dream that the championship is tarnished. in reality, heat beat the mavs into the ground.

I'm a Laker fan, win or lose. And I have to agree with your assessment! When the Lakers weren't in the playoffs this year, I became a lot more impartial about the series, because I'm not biased in any way for either the Heat or the Mavs. But I saw it with my own eyes, and I think Cuban has every reason to be FURIOUS!!! In games five and six, Shaq and Wade were getting away with every foul, but Dirk got called for a foul if he just BREATHED wrong! It was the worst officiating I've ever seen in the NBA Finals, EVER! The refs should be ashamed for destroying what had previously been a very even matchup! With the huge salaries that players and agents get, as well as the owners, there's no doubt in my mind that money is changing hands for something as simple perhaps as the desire to see some superstars succeed while others fail! Like I said, I had no bias in this series, but I feel for the Mavs because they got ripped by the referees, and ripped HARD!!!

Cuban was not playing, or controlling the game. I'd put 50/50 pressure on Nowitzki and Avery Johnson. Dirk did not step up and play to full potential when needed most. Avery Johnson didn't set up the right defensive schemes in order to stop Wade, as he consistently handed it to the Mavericks. And, the offensive for the Mavs was frequently sluggish. Therefore, don't blame Cuban, but instead Nowitzki and Johnson.

though we would hate to think there is a conspiracy, we cannot leave out the possibility. now saying that, Cuban had nothing to do with the play on the floor. game 5 is a sore thumb, but only 1 maverick came to play every night, Jason Terry. not dirk, not josh, not stack, Jason Terry. players still have to play the game. stern nor cuban missed any key free throws, uh dirk. as much as u would like to tarnish what the heat did, bottom line they came to play. u cannot take that away, and nor can u take away the rings they will be wearing next season as the 06' champs!

try the coach. they were winning game 5 when he went to haq-a-shaq.
Why get your players into foul trouble and your team into the penalty when you're hanging on ? I mean why get Diop and the others to gaurd Shaq if you're going to have them foul out ?
And that let Miami set their half court defense, kiss transition offense good by.
And without Stackhouse. Stupidest thing I ever saw in basketball.
p.s. Thanks for letting me vent.
