What I said was that I'm glad the call didn't get made. All it would have done was give the Mavs another game in a series that they're a huge longshot to win. I'd rather the series just end. They have been DOMINATED by Denver this year (6-0 coming into today) and while today's game was entertaining, the Nuggets are clearly a horrible matchup for them.

Me hating Dirk has nothing to do with the non-call today and everything to do with him being a notoriously terrible, terrible player when games are on the line. He's the anti-Kobe. He took a completely ill-advised 3 pointer with
18 on the shot clock just inside the 1:00 mark then missed what would have been a clinching jumper in the final 10 seconds. It happens all the time in big games. He has a mountain of talent but no balls when the game is hanging in the balance.
