No, I think in your team's case, a loss will cons ute being brought back down to Earth.

If anyone can find and bump the photoshop thread from last year after we beat the Mavs, I will give you all my SpursTalk cash. As nice as the ST search feature is, I can't seem to locate it.
Interesting juxtaposition: Dallas is 23rd in the league in scoring and 4th in points allowed. The Spurs are 2nd in the league in scoring and 12th in points allowed. Prediction: Spurs top the century mark again--Spurs 105, Dallas 95.
I hope we get to see a Splitter/Chandler matchup tonight.

Mavs suspend center Brendan Haywood
November, 26, 2010 Nov 266:19PM CTEmail Print Comments By ESPNDallas.comMavericks center Brendan Haywood has been suspended for a violation of team rules and will not be in the building tonight when Dallas visits the San Antonio Spurs.
ESPNDallas.com's Jeff Caplan is in San Antonio and will provide more details as they become available.
Haywood has played in 14 games this season for the Mavs, averaging 3.7 points, 5.0 rebounds and 19.5 minutes.
I can smell fear...
Mavericks-Spurs still figures to mesmerize
Even if roles reversed, with the Mavericks defending better than the Spurs and the Spurs scoring better than the Mavericks, this night of basketball should be a great one to watch.
When the Mavericks were breaking up at their shootaround today, they lightened things up with a half-court shooting compe ion. Everybody who shot had to put up $100. When they went 10 minutes or so with nobody connecting, the game was ended without a winner.
Interestingly, tonight it will likely be the Spurs heaving the ball up from long range more than the Mavericks. They are using the 3-point shot as a much stronger weapon than in the past. And Tim Duncan is averaging only 13 points per game.
These Spurs are evolving, clearly. But you don't get to 13-1 in this league without doing something - a lot of things, actually - right.
"They've played extremely well and they've had a favorable schedule they've taken advantage of. And theire team's gotten better,'' coach Rick Carlisle said. "This is a great rivalry. We've had some tough games here. We've had some great games here. You got to love the challenge of coming in here.''
So just how different do the Spurs look?
"(Manu) is having a career year scoring that could very easily hold up in the long term because of the style, they're playing a lot faster and pushing the ball,'' Carlisle said. "They're a great pick-and-roll team. They have a lot of things you have to deal with. Their 3-point ability is going to test your man defense and your zone. Right now, they're the best out there.''
And in case you think Duncan isn't a factor anymore, don't worry. He's still there.
"Down the stretch, he's going to touch it in the post and you better have some scenarios to get the ball out of his hands because he can still beat you,'' Carlisle said.

We will need a very good offensive game from either of our bigs tonight if we are going to win this one.
Playing Dallas is too much of a rivalry for the Spurs to lay an egg tonight. The trend behind the Spurs lately is that they clamp down (more or less) and shoot like crazy in the 4th quarter. Hopefully it continues tonight.
I expect to see Dice early in the game if Dirk is abusing Blair left and right.
Mavs want a revenge game after last season's playoffs and the Spurs streak is going to end at some point. But the Spurs have been finding ways to win so the Mavericks!
Tim is due for a good game, too.
Nothing like a beat down of the Mavs post Turkey day bring it on Spurs!
Spurs feed!!!
them up spurs!!!
Spurs feed!
How long before we see Udoka on Dirk?

All the mavs have to do is give it to Dirk.
Blair = liability on D
