The Mavs will come loaded for bear, but the Spurs are also starting to tighten things down and get ready for the postseason. I expect an exciting game, but given that it's at home I give the edge to the Spurs. Something like:

Mavs 85
Spurs 95

Oh, Gee!!

If the Spurs lose (esp. if it's by a lot), I'll officially begin panicking.

Howard will play and he will be at 100%. The Mavs right now are playing much better and more focused basketball than the Spurs. Avery has cut down on his mistakes on his preperation for the game and it appears no more getting down early to teams like the Raptors. (37-20 Mavs against the 6ers after being down big early the previous 2 games) The Mavs and Spurs have both had 2 days of rest before this game. Duncan hasn't played full strength in a long time and his scoring went way down in February, so that could have a big effect if you have no go-to guy. I'm sure Parker's drive will be cut down as he was the guy who won it for ya'll last game, especially if Armstrong gets put in. I say with all this:

Mavs - 98
Spurs - 92

I'm certainly not defending him but we've already blown ya'll out once and I doubt we were at full strength. (I'll look it up) But just as the Mavs have a chance to blow out the Spurs the Spurs have just as good of a chance to blow out the Mavs.

Alot depends on the the health of several Mavs players.

I understand that Harris' thigh unjury could be more serious than originally thought, and it's unlikely he will play. I thought he was a key contributor in the last couple of games, with his ability to drive into the lane. Very similar to what Parker does for the Spurs.

Howard is still day to day, but I look for him to play, but he might not be 100%.

Dirk rolled his ankle in the third period against the Sixers, and even though he came back and played well in the fourth, he could have some lingering effects even by Thursday.

I think I'll wait and see what the status of these players will be before making any predictions.

Haha, I want to see your season grade on Finley for the season, trust me all he does is jump shot and it will not be working against the Mavs, he's just too washed up and we could virtually put anyone on our team and they could guard him effectively just because he rarely ever drives anymore.

So you don't think he's going to hit a open shot at all? If you're not going to play any help D, then you're going to get burned by Parker, Manu, and Tim.

Trust me, he won't be open, and if he is he won't make the majority of his open shots.

It's not an individual defender that is going to slow Parker down. It takes a concerted team defense, the likes of which has been seldom seen (the '04 playoff series versus the Lakers comes to mind). The Mavs have to be able to control the paint, which means containing Duncan while keeping TP and everyone else out. That's a tall order for any NBA team, especially for the Mavs.

That's why I'm waiting before making any prediction. Even if everyone's healthy, it can go either way. I won't use injuries as an excuse if the Spur win though. Hopefully you would say the same to any Spurs fan that would try to do the same though.

As getting down big to the Raptors at home no doubt proved.


Avery has cut down on his mistakes on his preperation for the game and it appears no more getting down early to teams like the Raptors. (37-20 Mavs against the 6ers after being down big early the previous 2 games)

And I guess a single game is representative of a sudden improvement in coaching philosophies? If so, Popovich has obviously stressed offensive execution and making shots since the Spurs shot 72% through three quarters against the Knicks.

If you're going to try to talk basketball, at least make an attempt to raise resaonable points based on representative evidence.


The Mavs and Spurs have both had 2 days of rest before this game. Duncan hasn't played full strength in a long time and his scoring went way down in February, so that could have a big effect if you have no go-to guy. I'm sure Parker's drive will be cut down as he was the guy who won it for ya'll last game, especially if Armstrong gets put in.

It's March, baby. February is over. Besides, it's not as if the Spurs have a single go-to guy. The game is on national television -- ask SequSpur his thoughts about Manu Ginobili in nationally televised games.


I say with all this:

Mavs - 98
Spurs - 92

If the Mavericks fulfill Mavs' fans fantasies and score 98, or 101, or 110, or 348, or whatever ridiculous number Mavericks' fan chooses to pull out of his ass in predicting the score of Thursday's game, they'll probably win. That, or any prediction that the Spurs will give up more than 95 points on Thursday is crazy talk. We'll see.

Ok so coming back from down 24 against a team that was on fire took no focus?

Avery Johnson took full responsibility for the Mavs starting off bad against the Raptors and the Grizz and said he was going to especially emphasize starting well in the next game and it happened.

Just because February is over doesn't mean Duncan hasn't shot poorly for the past month.

How are you going to tell me that predicting 98 for an ON FIRE Mavs team right now on the Spurs is ridiculous? Get your shit straight, the Mavs have a great chance to score 98.

Alright, Einstein.

Tell me how many teams (other than the Spurs) have managed to score more than 95 points in the AT&T Center since December 1; for that matter, how many have managed to score more than 95 all season? Here's a link (http://www.nba.com/spurs/schedule/) to assist you in answering those questions.

Ok we'll win 85-80. Is that better? Just because statistically no one can score on the Spurs in the AT&T Center doesn't take away from what the Mavs have done in the past 20 games.

Nor does what the Mavs have done in the past 20 games take away from what the Spurs have done in their last 20. 19-1 is excellent; 17-3 is far from mediocre, though I'm sure it plays that way in Big D.

At least now, though, you're being somewhat realistic.

17-3 is by no means a bad record, but the Mavs have been unreal, no one has ever averaged 19 wins to 1 loss in a season so obviously they are doing something and that's the way they're playing right now, but the best record ever in the NBA was compiled with how the Spurs are playing right now so let's just agree that both teams are playing pretty damn well and the Spurs have the most trouble recently against the 76ers and Cavs that kept them from where the Mavs are right now.

Are you saying that no team has ever won its games at a 19-1 pace throughout a season? If so, I'm not sure what the relevance of that point is, since the Mavericks won't finish the season having won 19 of every 20 they've played either.

If you're trying to say that this is some unprecedented run in NBA history, the 72 Lakers and their 33-game winning streak might wish to have a say in your discussion.


so obviously they are doing something and that's the way they're playing right now,

Yes, the Mavericks are playing well; but not exceedingly better than every team in the current NBA (much less every team in NBA history)


but the best record ever in the NBA was compiled with how the Spurs are playing right now

Huh?

By the way, the Spurs are one box-out (or one free throw) short of 18-2 in their last 20. The Spurs didn't get the box-out or the free throw and lost that game, but you seem to suggest that the Mavericks are playing head-and-shoulders better than every other team going; I'm just saying that it's not as if the Mavericks have lapped the field or anything.


so let's just agree that both teams are playing pretty damn well and the Spurs have the most trouble recently against the 76ers and Cavs that kept them from where the Mavs are right now.

Again, I agree that the Mavericks are playing great ball right now and they deserve credit for that. I even think there's a chance the Mavericks can win on Thursday night. But I'd disagree strongly with the notion that the Spurs are somehow lagging desperately behind. Where exactly are the Mavs that the Spurs aren't? 1 up with 26 games to go? What an insurmountable margin that is!

What I was saying is that no one has ever won 95% of their games in a season (Which the Mavs have done in their last 20 games for all of you that can't catch on) so obviously we are playing well enough to score 98 points on the Spurs.

I think it could be argued that the Mavs are playing exceedingly better than any other team in the NBA over the last 20 games. They are winning 10% more of their games than everybody.

Sure, but the Mavericks aren't going to win 95% of their games this season. Heck, I'd even bet you that the Mavericks won't win 95% of games remaining on the schedule. But what does winning 19 of 20 have to do with scoring points on a defensive-oriented team on its home floor? That the Mavericks are winning games doesn't lead inexorably to a conclusion that they'll be able to score more on the Spurs than any other team has. It just means that the Mavericks have been winning a lot of games and, I guess, playing well enough to do that.

Of course, in rolling to 19-1, the Mavericks HAVEN'T played against San Antonio and HAVEN'T played in San Antonio, so the 19-1 is entirely independent of the Spurs.

Over a 20 game stretch. But, over the longer course of the NBA season, however, they are only one game better (for the moment) than a Spurs team that has looked to be on cruise control for most of the season.

I guess I just don't follow your logic -- more precisely, I find whatever point you're trying to make wholly illogical.

BUAHAHAHAH, Good job sherlock, you're right, the Mavs aren't going to win 95% of their games this season. It's a statistical impossibility LOL!! Good job. You're right, we probably wont keep up the win percentage either. But as of now we are the hottest team in the NBA meaning we are scoring more than usual or playing better defense than usual or both. Right now I have to say we are scoring better than normal and playing slightly better defense. So you can't say that there is no way in hell that the way the Mavs are playing now that they can't score 95 points on the Spurs. We'll see what happens.

You my friend are an Idiot. To say all Mavs fans are Front Runners and didn't exixt clearly shows this. I've been a loyal Mavs fan since 82. To say we didn't care during the 90's is just wrong. Did you expect Mavs fans to be running through the streets chanting "were the best" when they were winning 15 games a year? I dont ever see Detroit Lions fans talking smack either but does that mean they don't exist? It's hard to get excited when there's nothing to be excited about. You have to remember also that during the early to mid 90's Dallas had what many believe to be one of the best football teams ever. If given a choice to buy season tickets to one or the other, what would you spend your hard earned money on? A Super Bowl contender or a lottery team?

Looking at your post count it seems like you have other log in names on this board as well but it is whatever. Of course I didnt expect Mav fans to talk like they were the best but they NEVER talked about their team period during that time. People never cared about them or any move that they made in that era. No one gave 2 shits about going to the games to support their team through thick and thin. So many fans from Dallas I have talked to all tell me "I didn't really watch the Mavs during the 90's and I started to keep up with them the year they beat Utah round 1" :rolleyes . Of course there are those few loyal fans who supported/watched their team during those rough years who can be called fans but not the people who started to care against Utah in 2001.

Enough about the damned Mavericks.

Lets examine this AWESOME 19-1 run they are on.

In this run, they have played 13 GAMES IN DALLAS.

On the road, they have played a total of 3 teams with winning records - and the Mavs lost one of those.

In the same span the Spurs have played 12 Road games, and only 8 in the SBC - AND the Spurs have played 7 road games against teams with winning records; the Spurs 17-3 over that stretch is AT LEAST as impressive.

Also, if anybody has been paying attention, the Spurs have, in fact, started blowing teams out again - hasn't happened this season; seems like every time they would start pulling away, Pop would mess with the line-up.

Thursday is Mav's fans worst nightmare, and they don't even know it.

Mavs are coming to SBC/ATT with a LEAD in the division and facing the Spurs IN MARCH in a nationally televised Thursday night (meaning not Sunday afternoon) game on 3 days rest!

Remember when Phoenix came to town for its first visit last season - with all the hype and talk?

The Spurs are going to beat the crap out of Dallas because.....are you ready?????
?
?
?
?
?

They are a MUCH better team than Dallas.

Tony & Manu (with the green light he hasn't had for a couple of weeks) are going to LIVE in the lane. Tim is going to play MVP ball. Nazr is on a mission (if anyone hasn't noticed), Bowen can notch a couple more DPOY votes, Finley, Van Exel AND Barry all have something to prove...

I'm sick of hearing about Dallas's overhyped depth! Look at those names up there - count the rings! (and Horry's not in that list) Ponder the varied and massive talent and experience and understand, that that team hasn't even warmed up to the season yet, but only trails Dallas by a single game!

I watched for a decade, and then after 99, as the Spurs would go on massive W/L runs, building to a HUGE regular season game (oxymoron btw), against a SUPERIOR team, only to get my hopes dashed against the rocks of NBA reality. Prepare to get disappointed Mavs fans, it IS coming, and as Clayton Williams said, "You might as well sit back, relax, and enjoy it."

Spurs by any number Pop chooses.

It is really sad that these Mav fans have only been around for 5 years since they got a new logo and jerseys. No one gave 2 shits about the Mavs in 97,98 etc and now all of a sudden they act like their fucking loyal. It is sad because at least the other pro Dallas teams have loyal fans win or lose but the Mavs fans are the complete opposite.
I've been a fan since the innaugural 1980 season, so don't include me into the mix. I probably wasn't as enthusiastic in the 90's when that franchise was the worst in sports, but was still a fan.

Everyone except Suns fans (obviously) KNEW they weren't going to win against SA because they couldn't play playoff basketball. This year's Dallas can and that's why they're getting all this hype, at least that's what I hope everyone's thinking and not only because they have an OMG record.

Agreed but not in the way you phrase it. Depth is overrated because a) AJ shortens his rotations to 8 and b) the playoff scheduling isn't tight enough to make fatigue and whatnot a factor. Depth aids against injuries though, as is the case with us and no, I'm not talking about "I can't play 100%" type of injuries.

Let's look into the old crystal ball...
OK, here's how I see it going down. Tony Parker, playing with a severe hangover after another night of clubbing with Eva, shows tremendous heart leading the Spurs through three quarters before eventually passing out into a puddle of his own vomit. Coach Pop looks down the bench and calls on NVE to get in there. Instead NVE shoves Popovich and turns his jersey inside out, revealing Mavs colors. Finley soon does the same and they both take their places on Mavs bench as a hush falls over the AT&T Center. Cuban takes advantage of the silence to stand up and proclaim that this was all part of his master plan. That he snuck Finley and Nick into the Spurs as sleeper cells and still actually has them on his payroll. As he cackles maniacally Pop, undaunted tells Beno to get out there. However, the young Slovenian slips on Parker's vomit and gives himself a severe concussion after banging his head on the floor. In a moment of despair Popovich is beside himself wondering what he's going to do about his PG situation.

Meanwhile on the other side AJ is confronting Cuban. "Mark! I wanted to win, but not like this! This isn't how I run this team!"

Cuban snorts derisively, and shouts back, "You don't run this team, I do! Now get back to work, Avery!"

Avery nods sadly, says, "Fine, I'll get back to work...BUT NOT FOR YOU!" The brief look of shock on Cuban's face is priceless shortly before AJ knocks him out with a devastating haymaker. He tears off his suit to reveal a Spurs #6 jersey with the old school fiesta colors and gives Pop a big manly hug before entering the game for the Spurs. The referees desperately try to reach David Stern by phone but as it is Thursday evening he is curled up in front of his TV for NBC's Must See Thursday line-up and has left strict orders that he is not to be disturbed. Fearing a riot from the Spurs fans should the game be stopped, the refs allow the game to continue, and AJ leads the Spurs to victory.











Of course, this won't be quite as dramatic as it sounds, because at the end of the third quarter the score will already be Spurs 197, Mavs 13. Come on people, it's the friggin Mavs.

The "math" was simply a tool to make a sarcastic, generalized statement about the intelligence and maturity level of the average Dallas Mavericks fan.

...was written simply to set up the punch line:

You know what started our 19 of 20 game winning streak? No, it wasn't just the Mavs started playing well, it was a coaching move. After the 115-113 OT loss to the Knicks, Avery was so upset and frustrated with Dampier that he benched him and started Diop. So far it has turned into Damp coming off the bench, playing a hell of a lot better, recording a lot less fouls, and the Mavs are where they are now. Now I don't think it is coincidence we are playing a lot better than we did before, and I personally think we can keep up the great playing, maybe not 19 wins to 1 loss the rest of the way, but atleast a win percentage of 80 over the rest of the season.

However, the young Slovenian slips on Parker's vomit and gives himself a severe concussion after banging his head on the floor. In a moment of despair Popovich is beside himself wondering what he's going to do about his PG situation.

Meanwhile on the other side AJ is confronting Cuban. "Mark! I wanted to win, but not like this! This isn't how I run this team!"

Cuban snorts derisively, and shouts back, "You don't run this team, I do! Now get back to work, Avery!"

Avery nods sadly, says, "Fine, I'll get back to work...BUT NOT FOR YOU!" The brief look of shock on Cuban's face is priceless shortly before AJ knocks him out with a devastating haymaker. He tears off his suit to reveal a Spurs #6 jersey with the old school fiesta colors and gives Pop a big manly hug before entering the game for the Spurs. The referees desperately try to reach David Stern by phone but as it is Thursday evening he is curled up in front of his TV for NBC's Must See Thursday line-up and has left strict orders that he is not to be disturbed. Fearing a riot from the Spurs fans should the game be stopped, the refs allow the game to continue, and AJ leads the Spurs to victory.







This SPAM stuff works well for the FANS too ehy?





Of course, this won't be quite as dramatic as it sounds, because at the end of the third quarter the score will already be Spurs 197, Mavs 13. Come on people, it's the friggin Mavs.

I know many Mavs fans are going to the extreme. But you can't blame us for feeling good about our team and being excited about the way things are going....do you remember what it felt like before the Spurs won the championship in '99?

I personally don't believe the Mavs will win tomorrow in SA, and as much as I love this team I still think they need some time before they'll be able to make a SERIOUS run at a championship. But you have to admit that this team is a lot better than most people thought they would be.

Absolutely! There's no question this is perhaps the best Mavs team ever. Mavs fans have every right to be excited and talk shit. In fact, the rise of the Mavs makes for a "sterling" rivalry between our two teams. It's good for basketball and I believe it makes the Spurs better too.

I'm always amused at the cockiness displayed by each annual WC contender in thinking they're ready to knock off the world champions. Last year, it was Phoenix. This year the Mavs. I don't think the Mavs are quite there yet, but it's good to see them finally develop into a championship contender.

I only wish the NBA reseeded after each round so that the potential for a Spurs/Mavs WCF series would be possible.

Looking at your post count it seems like you have other log in names on this board as well but it is whatever. Of course I didnt expect Mav fans to talk like they were the best but they NEVER talked about their team period during that time. People never cared about them or any move that they made in that era. No one gave 2 shits about going to the games to support their team through thick and thin. So many fans from Dallas I have talked to all tell me "I didn't really watch the Mavs during the 90's and I started to keep up with them the year they beat Utah round 1" :rolleyes . Of course there are those few loyal fans who supported/watched their team during those rough years who can be called fans but not the people who started to care against Utah in 2001.


Well as far as me having other log in names the answer is no. I actually had no intentions of posting anything here. I just wanted to see what the Spurs fan perspective of the game was. Anyway. I can agree with much of what you are trying to say. It's just the way you phrased it the first time made it sound like we all traded in or Mavs gear and rooted for someone else. Some probably did but there was a few of us that toughed it out. Did we watch them as much? NO. It's hard watching the team you love get beat by 20+ points on a nightly basis.

Close game, 90-87 Spurs, with Tony having a big night despite being heavily defended. Rebounding has been good lately, too, for the Spurs and I think we'll see more of that.

Go Spurs Go!

Why do Mavericks fans -- and not fans of other teams -- feel they have some sort of authority to come in here and start dictating how conversations should go and what the terms of posting should be around here? It's an odd phenomenon.

If you think timvp's statement was irrelevant, just scroll. Don't tell the guy who runs the forum how to run his forum.

Presumptuous.

Well if timvp just didn't like my screen name, I have no problem with that. I just thought he didn't agree with something I said in an earlier post. No worries. I go by the name Dirkules over at realgm but some people thought I was trying to write Dirkrules and just mispelled it. I just didn't want to have to explain it everytime I posted like I had to over there. Especially since I'm dealing with Spurs fans ;)
