Most NBA players, even though they are pros, tend to be streak players. Some players get hot and can't seem to do anything wrong. While others turn cold and can't seem to buy a basket. The the cold players come out of their funk and get hot again. It's the name of the game and it happens throughout all professional sports.
If you really understand basketball you would know this. Golden State went cold right about the time Dirk got hot again.
When the Mavs are running on all cylinders they are almost impossible to beat. The problem is they all ride on Dirk's big shoulders. If he's not on his game they can be beat. Tonight he finally hit his grove again.
If you're a betting man I wouldn't bet against the Mavs just now. The first five minutes of Thursday's game will tell the story. If Dirk stays hot Dallas will take both games.

Sometimes it seems that way, but the Warriors losing was them being unexperienced. Their offense is high octane fast paced and when they should have been milking the clock and getting the best shots in while killin the clock, they didn't know what to do. Not only that, they didn't take some key shots that were better percentage shots.
Dirk still hasn't shown up the in the series. I give him his due for doing what he should have been doin by hitting those shots in the final minutes, but he needs to show up the entire game though just as well. He picked the right time to play and the Mavs wouldn't have won without his shots, but he's better than how he's been playing.

No game is fixed. There may be human feelings involved like Stephen Jackson getting a technical for merely sacastic applauding (probably the ref felt disrespected) or Rasheed Wallace getting a technical for staring at a ref. However, refs go through reviews and are fined heavily for mistakes they make. NBA teams are quietly allowed to file complaints to the leagues and the refs know it. Hence, you can expect no fixing.

the way the warriors blew it the last 3 minutes makes me wonder. the really bad shots, not holding the ball, baron just letting the double come to him instead of attacking it like he normally does. cmon, all that in the last 3 minutes is too much coincidence, especially since they played a great game before that time.

it was a great game. dallas got plenty of help in the first quater by the ref's..and that baron davis foul WAS NO FOUL..but show some respect and let the mav's have this one (we all know they didn't win it legit)..but be ready to celebrate this thursday around 10 pm.
because the mav's won't be getting them calls in oakland. if they do ..the ref's better have armed guards. because its not gonna be pretty for them when they walk outside into west oakland.

Whenever the Warriors are at Dallas, the referees seem to go against Golden State all the time.

Negative. What makes you ask that? The Warriors are just a good team, plus Don Nelson knows the Mavs like the back of his hand.

NO!! Golden state is the all around better team
if golden state can beat dallas by 19 AT DALLAS than that proves it
if golden state beat dallas the last 9 out of 12 times that proves it

hahaha is it because dallas won tonight?:D
warrior fans are sore losers, every time they lose they start saying the games are fixed and blah blah blah all that Bull crap, if they would have won i'm sure none of these stupid questions would be asked. if my mavs would have lost then maybe i could have agreed with u that the game was fixed:P
