08:08 AM ET 05.20 | So much for that code of silence Dirk Nowitzki last week said was working for the Mavs. As Mark Cuban was heading off the floor at a mid-court tunnel at halftime, he yelled at Bernie Fryer, a longtime NBA ref who retired after the 2007 season and now helps oversee the league's officiating department. Cuban voiced his opinion that moving screens and other judgment calls were not being made by the referee crew of Greg Willard, Bill Spooner and Tom Washington. Fryer said only that the crew was doing "great." "You're not watching the same game I am," Cuban said.

The Static are still a dumb team, but their coach is getting smarter.

Nice call benching Westbrook. This cat just doesn't get it.

Terry didn't show up after opening his big mouth. Outscore the OKC bench by himself, my ass. The supporting cast didn't show up except for JJ. Marion should have been in in the last few minutes of the game instead of Stevenson.

It's one game...

... not a big deal.

Believe you're confusing Dirk with Wade.

Terry usually disappears in the playoffs.

He's actually been some sort of consistent throughout these playoffs.... hopefully he'll show up and play next game....
