Was listening to ESPN 103.3 tonight jsut to see what the reaction was from last night and I heard an update in which Randy Galloway said that the Mavericks were gutless last night.
Galloway then had Mark Cuban on and Cuban defended his team. Well I can't believe I'm doing this but…Cuban's right. :vomit
Now we've all done a lot of trash talking up here about the Mavs and much of it was rightfully so. After all that's what we do as sports fans right? But to call a team that is in the NBA Finals gutless is well, GUTLESS by the accusor.
This team played as well as it could with what it had. They beat the two top teams in the WC and deserved to represent. They looked like they were gonna keep the title in the conference and in the Lone Star state but things went south.
Still, the Mavs did an admirable job for a franchise that had never been there before. So it's really troubling to read and hear a supposed respected columnist from a home city paper rip his team like that. Call them soft, call them inexperiened but gutless? I doubt it. If anything they tried to go down with a fight and not look foolish and there's nothing wrong with trying. It's when you don't attempt to try that makes you gutless in my book.
