Devin Harris is not the reason the spurs lost that series.
"Meek" Dirk sent the Spurs asses packing last time they met and there STILL isn't anyone on that roster that can hold him down.
Devin Harris is not the reason the spurs lost that series.
No, but he was a player who the Spurs had trouble with. The Mavs are now down to one guy that the Spurs can't match up with.
He was a big part. Avery was another reason.
I love Diop but if you know you're reaching when you say the Senegalian Swatter was a matchup "nightmare" for the greatest PF ever.
yeah I know. The spurs had such an easy time with Howard last time too
It was more of Dirk and Howard getting whatever they wanted. That'll be the case this year too.
They only had problems in the first quarter.yeah I know. The spurs had such an easy time with Howard last time too
Diop had 2 or 3 good or lucky possesions in OT and that made him the Duncan stopper
Other than that, dude got clowned by Timmy
Should we loop Adrian Griffin in there too as a Spur killer? Cause he's gone too.
or KVH with some bigs 3's in Game 7?
I don't know how the Mavs are going to overcome the loss of KVH either.
Yeah my bad, I forgot about KVH's quickness. The Spurs didn't have an answer for him all series.
Recently Dirk meekly took it up the ass against the 8th seeded Warriors and lost in the first round, a year after D-Wade took the Finals from Dirk (or did he cave under the pressure) and showed him how to win a series.
What about Quis? His cheerleading helped a ton.
Loss of Manu >>>>>>>> Loss of Diop/Harris
If Mavs lose the series its not bc Diop and Harris arent playing
Terry always seems to play well against the spurs, he's still there.
or Avery...he knew the whole Spurs system and all their plays
that might be the biggest loss bc he was J-ho's buddy
Not at all. You had a coach that:
A) Knew all of our plays
B) Made your team play defense like nobody else
We just couldn't score enough. On top of that, we had no answer for Devin and Dirk, which compounded the problem. Actually, Devin was even more key than Dirk in that series, because Dirk we already know we have a problem containing, but he only pretty much takes jumpers (at least these days he does). But Devin drove right through and not only scored, but got our bigs in foul trouble, plus made Tony work hard on defense.
You can laugh all you want at the importance we give Devin, but he was one of the guards that gave our team the most problems during the Duncan era. Since he's gone, we've beaten your team fairly consistently.
Check the schedule for me. Are the Mavs playing the Warriors or the Heat this weekend? Or are they still playing the Spurs - a team that has no one to match up with him?
It will come down to bench play......bottom line!
It'll come down to whatever Howard shows up how quickly Mavs forget what he played like before last month
no match up problems for the spurs...the mavs are pussies...they'll find a way to choke
Watch a lot of basketball, do you?
