They should clear out for Kaman, and have him post up

Thomas looks like he got away with a travel (possible make up for the call earlier) and hits Mobley in the corner for 3. Clips regain the lead.

Thomas drives to the hoop with the layup and is fouled. Free-throw is short. 3-point lead.

Kaman swarmed by Nowitzki and Dampier but muscles up an attempt and is fouled. He'll shoot 2. Misses his first and hits his second. 4 point game. Terry scores off of a runner jumper off of the glass. 2 point Clipper lead.

LOL good finish, lucky bounce

Maggette on the break and draws the foul on a layup that is goaltendeded. He makes the shot. Knight with the strip, Clippers fumble the ball and Mobley recovers to lay it in. Clippers up 88-81 with 5:48 to go in the 4th.

Man, the officiating on this game is terrible (both sides). Are the refs rookies or something?

Knight with a jumper at the top of the key. 90-81. Dallas then turns it over with an offensive foul on Stackhouse. Clippers are on a 13-2 run.

Kaman saved a basket

I agree that there have some iffy calls. LOL I don't know if they're rookies or anything but the old one looks like Mr. Roper from Three's Company.

Maggette misses both free-throws and the Mavs look to make it a 2 point game after Devin Harris is fouled by Maggette who picked up his 6th. :nonono:

Bad move by Maggette having 5 fouls. Thornton will enter the game in his place.

Harris hits them both. Clippers up 90-88.

Thomas drives around Nowitzki for the finger roll. Lead back to 4.

good call by the ref

Dirk ties the game up with a 19 footer. Mobley misses and Dampier rebounds for the Mavs. After a Harris miss a loose ball foul is called on Brandon Bass. Knight to the line for 2. He hits them both. 28.1 seconds left in the game and we're up 94-92. Seatbelts are fastened!

Despite his supposed limited minutes. Knight has played 23+ tonight.

He puts pressure on Terry on the inbounds play and the Mavs turn it over. Come on Clippers!! :clap:

Thomas puts it up with 8 seconds left to go and the Mavs have ample time to score. That was a horrible decision. There was 7 seconds left on the shot clock. :banghead:

Clippers need a stop.

rookie mistake by Thomas

Stackhouse hits a 3 at the buzzer to win the game. I'm so pissed off but the ending is not even that surprising.
