2011*
They didn't play us this year. We would've beaten their asses AGAIN. Of course, we got matched up against the only team who could beat us in a 7 game series in the league, the ONLY playoff team that pounded it down low on EVERY possession.
Next year, we will be back.

Chazley!
Can we go ahead and qualify this as the luckiest le of all time?
Lebron decides to go from looking like Jordan against Chicago to looking like Shawn Marion's equal against the Mavs (due to the unbelievably dumb decision to put him on Terry). Lakers, who knows what the happened to them. Westbrook decides to gift the Mavs 5 extra possessions per game and miss every shot. They dodge the only two teams in the West who would've crushed them: Spurs/Grizzlies. Of course, they do all this without Caron Butler, which worked wonders for that team because Marion is the WAY better fit and makes them an elite defensive team.
The Grizzlies should've won it all this year. Only one team could beat them: the Thunder... and it took them 7 games.
Barring an unexpected injury to the great Bonner we will be back.
this is so funny I just had some wine with my steak
Dam people! Cant you take a lose. If it were to be anyone else to win, I would want a Texas Team. Give Dallas Props, they did it as a team. Wasnt like they had an easy schedule either. Lakers..Thuder...Heat. Im not gonna make no excuses for the Spurs and the MAvs deserve some props for doing it. They played as a team with some old school D. Granted I have no love for Terry or Cuban, the rest of the team did there part. Dirk played like an MVP. Well Deserved MAvs! Most of the people here really supported the Mavs. Some people just dont get it. Its a Texas Thing.
Ill still hate u next year too. =)
One more note. I saw a t-shirt in marget square that seemed kinda ironic.
Its said. "I support 2 basketball teams. The Spurs and anyone who beats the Mavericks."
I saw this like 3 days ago and thought How ironic it would be to have this shirt on.
You would be a lot funnier if you posted in Yoda-speak.
True, but alot of Mavs fans were doing just this in 07 and some still do (Terry did as well). I guess I get what he is doing here.
Why is it funny? We beat the Mavs in 2010 as a 7th seed, and for all the talk about how much Chandler brought to your team, the 2011 Spurs were way better than the 2010 Spurs. The top two teams you played played at like 50% of what they're capable of. As a Mavs fan, you should agree with me (2007 talked about alot among Mavs fans). However, in 2007, you guys had a sample size of one series where you beat us because of one of the dumbest basketball plays in history (Manu foul on Dirk), so it was kind of moot.
yeah the same could be said for da 07' mavs as well
Don't forget Dirk was going to the line over 20 times in some of those games. Mavs didn't beat the Spurs that year, it was the referees, clearly. It becomes even more apparent when, after Dirk hit the free throw on the and1 to tie the game, Spurs miss a shot, Duncan is there for a wide-open putback, he gets hacked, misses it, no foul is called, they go to overtime and lose.
This is like the argument that the Mavs would have beat the Spurs in 2007 if they met. But its irrelevant becuase Mavs should have beat the freaken 8 seed, just like the Spurs should have beat the freaken 8 seed this year.
So this argument is stupid.

Good thread. Lots of quality insight here. A+.
The Warriors were not the usual team. They were on fire to end the regular season. Scoring a ton on teams. We lost Dampier right before the playoffs. Not that he could keep up with the Warriors anyway due to the matchups. They exposed our centers lack of speed, lack of post game, and inability to guard the perimeter. Avery panicked and started Devean George.
I think they would have beaten us. Dirk and Terry were playing out of their minds. But yeah like 2007 we'll never know.
You mean Stephen Jackson checked Dirk and Baron Davis rapedPERIOD.The Warriors were not the usual team. They were on fire to end the regular season. Scoring a ton on teams.

Lucky, just good or whatever - it takes a lot of everything to do what they did.

Sometimes a team just don't match up well at all.
What a butthurt little . I would have been happy with any team winning the le this years sans Boston, LA or MIA
better lucky than good.
