SAN ANTONIO -- Faced with the possibility of having a second straight season end with a Game 7 loss, the San Antonio Spurs played with emotion and let Tony Parker have some fun. cheap jerseys from china . Parker scored 32 points and the San Antonio led by as many as 31 on its way to a 119-96 victory over the Dallas Mavericks, closing out a stressful first-round series Sunday in seven games. The finale featured Tim Duncan diving into Dallas bench to save a ball and the Spurs reserves continually on their feet to celebrate baskets. But no one had as much fun or hit the floor more than Parker. The All-Star point guard was 11 for 19 from the field and 10 for 13 on free throws as Dallas was unable to keep him from attacking the lane, despite a series of hard fouls. "I just knew that I had to be aggressive if we wanted to have a chance to win the game because of the strategy that the Mavericks chose," Parker said. "They just dared me to score." Manu Ginobili scored 20 points, Danny Green added 16 points and Tim Duncan and Kawhi Leonard had 15 points apiece for San Antonio. Dirk Nowitzki had 22 points and nine rebounds to lead Dallas. Last season ended for the Spurs with a Game 7 loss in the NBA Finals against the Miami Heat. Facing a much earlier end, San Antonio rode a raucous home crowd and overwhelmed Dallas. San Antonio advances to face the fifth-seeded Portland Trail Blazers, who upset the Houston Rockets in a six-game series. The series opens Tuesday in San Antonio. The Spurs got off to a quick start as they had done at home all series, but the Mavericks were unable to respond as they did in winning Game 2 on the road. Leonards 16-foot jumper gave San Antonio an 18-7 lead 6 minutes into the game and the lead swelled to 29 with 2 minutes remaining in the first half. "We gave ourselves a chance but today we got hit by a tidal wave early," Dallas coach Rick Carlisle said. "They had their best game today and we just werent able to do quite enough to stay in it early. "Its hard when you get hit with an onslaught early the way the guys did." Nowitzki struggled through much of the series, but the Mavericks pushed the Spurs to the brink of elimination behind strong post-season performances from Monta Ellis, Vince Carter, Devin Harris and DeJuan Blair. "On the court what confounded us was that theyve got shooters all the way around," San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich said. "Dirk Nowitzki gets a crowd, if you double him you, you leave a lot of other open shooters. So we played him pretty much one-on-one, so we could stay at home a little bit better. That and the ability to shoot it; spread the floor, run the sets that Rick does and the speed of Harris and Ellis was tough for us to handle." Dallas also played a physical series. There were two technical fouls and two flagrant fouls in Game 7 and two more flagrants reversed upon review. Parker was assessed a technical with 31.6 second left in the first quarter after making a layup on and jawing with former teammate Blair as the two ran down the court. The two had been talking to each other all series and Parker was clearly frustrated at times with the hard fouls committed by Blair on his drives earlier in the series. But Parker said it was all in good fun. "I was just laughing with DeJuan," Parker said of the technical. "Thats why it was so funny to get a technical for that, because I was not even cursing at him. DeJuan played four years (for the Spurs). He lived for a year at my house. I love DeJuan." Blair was later assessed a flagrant foul for elbowing Ginobili in the face on a drive. After the foul, Blair stared down Popovich, who was screaming at officials over the severity of the foul. The flagrant foul energized the Spurs, who went on a 14-2 run to take a 51-27 lead with 8 minutes remaining in the first half. "Everybody was active and kind of focused," Duncan said. "We had very little mistakes." San Antonio never led by less than 14 points in the second half. NOTES: The Spurs were 7-0 in games decided by three points or less during the regular season but were 0-2 against Dallas in such games in their first-round series. . Sundays game between Dallas and San Antonio was the 50th post-season game this season. It was also the fifth Game 7 of the first round. "I think its great for basketball and for the fans," Popovich said. "It drives all the coaches crazy. (But) for the game and everybody, its been a wonderful thing. " ... Blair was booed heavily each time he entered the game or committed a foul. NFL Nike Jerseys China .J. -- The New Jersey Devils struggled to slow down David Desharnais on Wednesday. cheap jerseys .

Read up on all the questions and answers, and put in your own two cents on our popular Your Call feature. Which hashtag best sums up Phil Kessels extraordinary storyline: #LastPickTopScorer, #CriticsBeDamned, #WhosLaughingNowOV or #AmericanBeauty? Aaron Ward: Ill go with #CriticsBeDamned. I include myself in the category of guys who dissected Phil Kessel top to bottom for his perceived lack of grit and for his need for consistency. Hes had to put up and weve had to shut up. Not only is he leading the league in scoring, but right now hes averaging plus-twenty minutes per game and hes a plus player. Bob McKenzie: # WhosLaughingNowOV. When Alexander Ovechkin did what he did to Kessel it was all in good fun. As well, Kessel took it that way. But guess what? Everyones got a sense of humour but the hockey gods have a sense of humour too. Phil Kessel is arguably one of the very top players in the NHL and Alexander Ovechkin is struggling to find his game. Whos laughing now? Marc Crawford: Im going to take #AmericanBeauty. I think Phil Kessels been great since day one. His skating has been terrific and hes hitting the holes. Everybody knows about his great shot off the wing, but the fact that hes hitting the holes and hes playing with players that speed at centre; whether its been Tyler Bozak or Tim Connelly. And how about how much hes improved the game of Joffrey Lupul? Its always nice when you play well but when you have your teammates playing well because of your play, thats a real complement to Kessel as well. If you were Brian Burke, would you extend Ron Wilsons contract right now? Crawford: Yes! Absolutely! Hes done everything for them; hes great in the media - which is underrated in Toronto - and hes made the team faster, allowing them to play a system where they have speed and support and thats where the games at. I say absolutely yes. Ward: Yes, I say you signing him. Its an endorsement of what hes doing; hes accomplishing a lot, hes winning and maintaining that atmosphere. It also serves to keep that continuity in the locker room and its that mentality that Toronto has right now. McKenzie: I would say no. You didnt want to sign him in the summer to an extension and were one-quarter of the way through the season. Why not let things unfold and see where everything shakes out. You dont know whhere the team is going to be or where Wilsons going to be three or four months from now. wholesale nfl nike jerseys. If youre going to let a guy hang in the wind, let him hang in the wind until you know whether youre going to make the playoffs or not. What has most made this a Movember to Remember: Crosbys return, Anaheims collapse, Bostons resurgence or Gino Redas return? McKenzie: Ill go with Crosbys return. Hes been very good, averaging two points per game and playing the game with a lot of passion. The National Hockey League is better for having Sidney Crosby back, so for me thats the Movember to Remember. Ward: I would go with Bostons resurgence. After a disastrous start, we would probably find more confidence at a Stuart Smalley convention (for the kids out there, just You Tube it under Saturday Night Live skits). They have recaptured that swagger and theyve got their identity back, playing with a high level of confidence. Theyre showing no signs of slowing down. Crawford: I would say Crosbys return. I was there when he came back the first night and I saw the excitement in the stands. I also saw veteran reporters, people that have covered the league for years, and the impact he had on those people was measurable and certainly were a better league because hes back in it. Who is the frontrunner for GM of the Year: Brian Burke, Peter Chiarelli, Don Maloney or Dale Tallon? Ward: I like Maloney. To say that his team is third and not follow the word third without last is an accomplishment in his own right. Hes restricted by finances and circumstances; so many things he has to overcome. McKenzie: Ill say Brian Burke. A year ago this time, everybody was piling on him because the Kessel deal didnt look that good. The Kessel deal looks a lot better right now but its really the Francois Beauchemin that has fueled the Leafs. Joffrey Lupuls been exceptional and Jake Gardiner has been exceptional. They mitigated any damages on the Kessel deal by dealing Tomas Kaberle to get Joe Colborne, who looks like he may be the big centre theyre looking for. Crawford: All healthy candidates but Im going to choose Dale Tallon in Florida. If not for Tallon right now, we might be talking about Florida in terms of going somewhere else. Hes brought in Kevin Dineen, along with Craig Ramsay. Brian Campbell is having a great year and up front, Kris Versteeg - a castoff of the Maple Leafs - is in the Top 10 in scoring. Theyve been terrific in Florida and Dale Tallon deserves a lot of the credit.
