mavs will win BOTH games against NOH!

[#41 Shoot Em Up]

hey dont overrate that team anymore than they should be...they went only 67-15

So funny having a HORNETS fan talk trash...... really??............a Hornets fan?

[BRHornet45]

sons lets just be real about this ...

these two games are the Hornets games to lose. they should have absolutely no problem taking both games by 10+ points each, but anything is possible if the Mavs bring their A game and the Hornets slack. like I said its the Hornets games to lose, they control their own destiny against the Mavs.

- King Paul has ABSOLUTELY NO compe ion whatsoever and will be able to not only 100% control the game however he damn well pleases, but he should be able to score far more than usual due to no one being capable of guarding him.

- David West has built so much Mandingo Fear into Dirk over the last 3 years and it has shown in past games. Dirk will struggle some and will do everything he possibly can to stay away from West. In the meantime West should be able to drop his usual offensive game.

- Ariza, Belinelli, and Okafor will continue playing great D and will each drop double digit scoring numbers. I predict the two game scoring averages to be - Ariza 14ppg, Okafor 13ppg, Belinelli 11ppg

- Hornets bench has so far proven to be the best they have had in recent memory. Their bench is easily in the top 2 or 3 best in the NBA and is obviously far better than the Mavs bench. I expect the Mavs to epically fail at attempting to get a run going while using their starters against the Hornets bench.

MY FINAL PREDICTION FOR BOTH GAMES

GAME 1
Hornets 97
Mavs 91

GAME 2
Hornets 108
Mavs 89

[Pelicans78]

Couldn't say it better myself BR. Good job. Thread closed. LOL Mavs.

Thats why Dirk averaged 27/12/4 on 47% in 07/08?

Thats why he is almost always above his average against the Hornets?

- Ariza, Belinelli, and Okafor will continue playing great D and will each drop double digit scoring numbers. I predict the two game scoring averages to be - Ariza 14ppg, Okafor 13ppg, Belinelli 11ppg

Too bad the Mavs are #1 in opponent FG%

So many mistakes in one paragraph it's not even funny. Should I even go through the trouble of pulling up Dirk's numbers vs the Hornets?

[sribb43]

sweeping the Hornets will easier than the Mavs sweep of Grizz back in 2006

[#41 Shoot Em Up]

I know an 8-0 record gets a fan base excited, but seriously nobody besides the dellusional Hornets "fan base" really believes this team is a threat in the West. Ask Lakers fans if they fear David West and Okafor lol. Mavs should be focused on bigger fish in the west like the Spurs who are playing really well and the champs

[rascalpascal09]

The Hornets are just gonna be swept away eventually like there city was about 5 years ago. Good riddance

But...but...you forgot Jason Smith and A. Gray and DJ!!!

dear lord, the Lakers are ed

[#41 Shoot Em Up]

Thats right, however will Bynum, Gasol and Odom score???

[sefant77]

I have no idea.

And Ariza gonna toast Artest and Barnes

The league should fold allready..

[YoungB]

We always struggle against the Hornets simply because defending the PG position is our weakness, while CP3 at PG is their strongpoint. He runs wild on us.

[Ghazi]

2-0... 1-1 at worst

[crc21209]

I think a split is more likely, with each team winning at home.

[Pelicans78]

No Hornet fans ever said they were as good as the Lakers. Quit changing the subject. You Mav fans are pathetic. Can't stick with the facts. This isn't about the Hornets and Lakers. This is about the Mavs who aren't that great. Why should Hornet fans fear the Mavs? They've been playoff fodder ever since 2006 and they're older now. LOL at Stevenson trying to guard CP3.

[dallasmavsnfuego214]

They've been playoff fodder ever since 2006

And the Hornets have been playoff fodder forever

Atleast in the 90's, when they were in Charlotte, they kept it typical and were just a doormat for MJ's Bulls

Hornets fans talking about playoff futility is hilarious

[Pelicans78]

Dallas and the Hornets are actually tied in opponents FG%. Both allow 42%.

[sefant77]

You Mav fans are pathetic. Can't stick with the facts.

Hornetsfans and "facts"

This is about the Mavs who aren't that great. Why should Hornet fans fear the Mavs? They've been playoff fodder ever since 2006 and they're older now.

I wonder why the Mavs should fear the Hornets? They havent done since 2008 Epic spank in 2009 and missing the playoffs 2010 and now starting to talk crap about the Mavs success in playoffs?

Maybe u should wait until you can backup your crap with more than a playoff series in 2008 and a 8-0 november record

nice try .

If the Hornets would be the 0.3% better you would stick it out here.

Pretty pathetic. 0.3% difference. Go and celebrate it

Why? The truth is the Hornets are better this season and they will show it this week with a sweep against an inferior opponent. Cuban didn't learn his lesson in the offseason. Kept the same players and coach of a team that got spanked in the first round.

[sefant77]

Funny how you would point out if the Hornets would lead this 0.3% differencial

[Pelicans78]

How do you know I would? You have no clue, just like you have no clue on what's going to happen this week? Unfortunately, you have to find out the hard way. Your team is NOT STACKED!

[sefant77]

Didnt know the defintion of stacked is Bayless-Thornton-Peja-Smith-Gray
