The Mavs fans celebrated as if they had won the series....the arena dropped streamers etc as they knew this was probably the last time there will be a game there this season. Good game though for both teams.

Re: West Playoffs

I think it might be Billups idea to sit the Birdman for game 4. Why? Well I was reading this article ESPN - OTL: The Disposable Superstar where there was an incident with Carmelo where he refused to come out during a game with the Pacer. The front office in Denver suspended him but as it turned out it was Billups idea to probably teach Carmelo discipline. The Birdman was out of control during game 3 on Saturday. There's probably no food poisoning whatsoever and Denver probably didn't want to get press for benching one of their top player during the Playoff.

Am I paranoid? I don't think so. I wished Billups had influenced the front office in Detroit to bench the whole front line during a couple of seasons when they weren't doing their job.

I know. No one celebrates mediocrity like Mark Cuban.

Re: West Playoffs

I believe it was Billups' idea for Melo to sprint out after the suspension (not to be suspended in the first place).

There is no way Billups benched the Birdman and had him go along with a fake diarrhea excuse.

Re: West Playoffs

Kenyon Martin's mother looks like the sweetest person on earth. Who could someone A.) yell at her and B.) throw beer at her? That is sick. I don't know how you could hold K-Mart accountable if he went in the stands and beat someone.

Didn't Antonio Davis go into stands about 4 years ago when some fans were threatening his wife/family?? I think that was the last season he played too...

Re: West Playoffs

These guys who don't get a box for their family are idiots. I mean, how can the players not get a box for all of their wives and mothers and whatever?

Well if it is a road game, it may be difficult unless you know someone there and can set up the accommodations in advance...

Antonio Davis Goes into the Stands. NBA Sweating Again.

I didn't read this, but wasn't AD's wife at least somewhat the aggressor in that one?

Kenyon's mom was just sitting there clapping politely.
