Hack a damp Strategy

Dallas - Sweet dripping, arms are heavy, Erick Dampier opgelyn a free throw.

Feet from the eyes by the way, he has the ball on the edge of the 150th and snapped last Monday.

He does not have to do step # 140th

Sure, it was only practice, the empty seats and not the scoreboard. Nonetheless, this is an indication that Dampier will be ready over the San Antonio Spurs again their best defense against the Dallas Mavericks decision, the big man, how to send the special rule.


"I think it's wonderful," said Dampier. "I think they should do it again."

On Sunday night in Game 1 of the first round series San Antonio was trying so frustrated Dirk Nowitzki, the late in the third quarter, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich Roger Mason sent the message: stop dirty as Dampier as soon as possible.

Three seconds later, he was - for Dallas once crossed midcourt way.

Dampier missed a number of free throw earlier in the quarter and missed the second of these. So the next time the Mavs got the ball back exhausted Mason Dampier. His first, missed the second.

Five seconds in Dallas' past holds, Mason certainly has the fluitjie blow restored.

Fans finally broken lint is what is going on and began Boo. If Dampier two free throws and has broke her out in jubilation. The shots, the Mavs six, two more than when they start strolling. Dallas finally won with six, as well.

"We knew exactly what to do after a couple of times in a row," said Dampier. "Therefore it was only my step-up, and I step on the line and knock it away, I am now ready to throw this release .."

Dampier finished the night 5 for 12 from the line, so he needed to blow out some lint refine for Game 2 Wednesday night. Therefore, it is the most light of the Dallas practice session Monday spent on the dirty like the line, with the team free-throw coach Gary drilling in the vicinity.

"I usually shoot free throws better than what I shot last night," said Dampier, who made 60.5 percent of his free throw this season and has 62.7 percent of his 14-year career. "Good it is always a night I had half a chance, they have gone Knock .."

Popovich is a disciple of former coaches, Don Nelson, Mavs lead the Hack-a-Shaq strategy of fouling Shaquille O'Neal to throw instead of him dunk wet. The Hack-a-steam was a little twist on this point, since it the ball away from Nowitzki on a night when he was 12 of 14 shots and had 32 of his 36 points by three quarters.

"I was surprised," said Nowitzki. "But I think Nellie is pop as you have to be ready for everything .. He does not care what anyone thinks or says."

Dampier is probably an important player in the series continues, not only for himself in his free throw. It is because, as is from the middle of Dallas' he the first line of defense against Tim Duncan.

Dampier and Brendan Haywood added by the coach Rick Carlisle, Nowitzki and the rest of their comrades pair for the way they were treated with Duncan praised in the series.

Dallas big men just five free throw, and Duncan has to commit to a team-high six forced omsette limited. Then again, he also has a team best 27 points on 12 of 20 shots, and grabs eight bonds.

"If you work hard for him to take tough shots, he has to get one another and roll, making him fight for position, just wear it during the game," Dampier said Monday. "Even if he has 1927 points, he had 27 points for her work did not come. Simple. That's what this team depends on me and Brendan. We go out, we play defense, block our shots."

The Dampier Haywood added 15 points, 18 coupons and two omsette combined. The 14 free-throw that all Spurs game as a whole.

"They both have an impact," said Duncan. "This is what you want from these people."

Dampier was able to play because he was tough, dirty as Duncan from grief. Haywood had geskerts him to the yard may not attempt to fouling San Antonio, because he would have made both his shots, how dirty to the point.

Dampier was able to laugh about Popovich stunt, especially since he gefnuik.

"I have a game long enough to know (), you go play a few, you will miss a few," said Dampier. "Only if you try to make more crap."
