    Well if there raping the Mavs up and down the court bc of the mavs ty D, that won't matter. Mavs in 6 but very difficult games.

    Glad we can agree Brewer ain't

    Dirk's not letting the Mavs lose to the Nuggets. Even with Melo gone they're one of the most mentally weak teams in the NBA.

    You're being overly pessimistic due to recent playoff failures. Denver, Memphis, Portland, Phoenix, Houston, and Utah will have no chance against Dallas in the playoffs (should some of those teams happen to make it). NONE. New Orleans has an outside chance but even then I see Dallas prevailing in 6 or 7.

    The PTSD is killing you brah. I wouldn't start worrying until the Lakers or Spurs came to town

    Dirk went off against the Nuggets in 09 and the Mavs still lost in five. However, this isn't 2009, so the Mavs will probably win. With Chauncey around, the Nuggets were motivated for the first two rounds of the playoffs. And then the WCF happened.

    I'm not worried about Dirk, it's the rest of the mental midgets on this team that once again could bury this team

    I doubt the Nuggets will look as formidable once the excitement of playing as a "team" wears off and they realize they're going to Ty Lawson and Wilson Chandler for clutch baskets down the stretch.

    But i see your point. I'd be pretty worried about Jason Terry, too.

    Pretty much nailed it on the head. Those are the only two teams to seriously worry about.

    It's not even close. Tyson's interior defense is far superior to Duncans at this point in his career. Chandler is the Maverick's MVP (besides Dirk of course).
    Wrong.

    Duncan ranks 11th in the league in Defensive win shares. The only bigs ahead of him are Howard(1st), Garnett(2nd), Bogut(5th), and Gasol(10th). Chandler, meanwhile, is ranked 33rd among all players.

    You know you're reaching when you use "defensive win shares" as a stat to compare players. What the does that even mean?

    How is using statistics reaching? Even if you don't like/understand defensive win-shares (lol), almost all defensive metrics, like I explained, have Tim just as good if not better defensively than TC.

    Sure, any one stat when used in isolation is going to be flawed. Obviously, any stat that has Dirk anywhere near the top defensively is stupid. Point is, almost EVERY defensive statistic had TD ahead of TC.

    Nice job cherry-picking a post from November(when there was less than a month's worth of data for the year). Dirk didn't finish anywhere near the top ten that year btw. Howard was number 1 at the end of the season.

    And I only pointed out the Def WS numbers because another poster already showed that Duncan was ahead of Chandler in regards to Def Rtg. Factor in Team Defense (where the Spurs are ranked 7th compared to 11th for the Mavs) as well as individual stats(2 blks/6.7 Drbs/1.6 fouls for TD while Chandler's at 1 blk/6.6 Drbs/3.1 fouls in comparable minutes) and there's no way you can say that Chandler's the better defensive anchor.

    How do Mav fans feel about a Boston matchup? And your chances against the Lakers?

    You guys seem to be matchup pretty well with Boston, that's for sure.

    Tbh, the Mavericks are flying lower than the Spurs below the radar, and as of right now, The Spurs still have no answer for Dirk, McDyess guards him okay but he's Dirk, & McDyess is McDyess. I hope it's Mavericks & Spurs in the WCF, entertaining and intense, I wouldn't mind seeing the Lakers-Spurs series though. But yeah, Spurs need to procure more size, as much as I hate to admit it.
