Are you in' serious? 2006 in a landslide.
Which backdoor sweep hurts the most, Mav & Spurfans?
Are you in' serious? 2006 in a landslide.
This year's WCF is pretty much the finals, pretty fair comparison imo
true story, and both involved zebra bs
I think 2006 involved much more ref attention
Mavs. No comparison. In the Finals, a 13 point lead in game 3 with six and a half minutes left, which ostensibly means six and a half minutes away from the NBA championship, and proceeded to lose the game and ultimately the series.
Personally, this one doesn't hurt at all, tbh... I started the season with very low expectations. Reaching the WCF was already gravy...
True story.
Being one of the spurfans that didn't feel en led to win it all based on a win streak
Difference is the Mavs looked thoroughly superior to the Heat after the first two games. OKC nearly stole game 1 and had a fighting chance in game 2 after coming back from a 22 point lead. Even though the Spurs went up 2-0, any logical fan realized OKC wasn't that much of an inferior team to the Spurs as we thought the Heat were to the Mavs.
The Heat also closed out the Mavs on their home floor, which adds a heap of insult to injury.
2006 was worse because if the Mavs had just played 1 percent better or made an extra free throw, they would have won. Yes, the Mavs choked ass in the Finals in 2006 but even with the massive chokejob and Wade's lovefest at the free throw line, it was in' close. It being so damn close made it even worse and hurt more.
But good point, at least Spurs didn't lose it all at home
