What's the point if this thread again??? The spurs aren't/ nor are they gonna be champs anytime soon
My bad. They got beat 4-2 but were down 3-1 which is why I thought they got swept.
That still doesn't make any sense you stupid .
LMAO mavs win one 'chip and now they think they're the best....
Ask this question again in a week.
Don't worry, they'll probably bring it up again before/after the next game whether The Spurs win or lose.
Mavs fans are pretty much 50/50 for The Spurs just like Laker fans, hehe.

The 2011 Mavs also didn't face the 2013 Heat, which are much deadlier. It's hard to say who would come out on top between Mavs/Spurs under these cir stances.
I don't know who would win tbh
Whoever has homecourt adv wins.
2011 mavs was a fairytale. spurs is a dynasty.
spurs in 6
have the 2013 Spurs won yet?
Dirk shot 41.6% in the 2011 finals tbh.
unstoppable
western conference playoff run was a different story though
Considering how much defensive attention Dirk was getting by Miami, he was doing exactly what he needed to do. Continue being aggressive to keep absorbing the defensive pressure, which would open things up for other scorers like Terry, Barea, and Marion. As the game wore on, Miami would have to make adjustments and put more pressure on the rest of the team, opening things up for Dirk by the 4th, where he still dominated. His 4th quarter performances were still godly in the Finals, despite not shooting a high percentage in general for the series. You will not find a single (realistic) Miami Heat fan that will say that Dirk was anything less than unstoppable in the Finals. He made them bricks left and right, despite his percentage.Dirk shot 41.6% in the 2011 finals tbh.
unstoppable

he went kirby in the finals tbh
Dirk was Kirby in the 2011 Finals? You ting me? He basically won games 2 and 4 for the Mavs in that Finals. He also had a huge part in the game 5 victory. You guys are just haters and jealous that your team hasn't eliminated the Heat in the Finals. My Mavs are the only team in NBA history that can say that.
Is it even possible to be unstoppable and shoot 41% at the same time? Second lowest FG% by a FMVP ever, ahead of only Bean Bryant.
Spurs is 6
Heat 2013 are better than 2011 Heat. Mavs were right combination of guys while the Heat had just come together and struggling to figure roles out. 2013 Spurs definitely got a tough battle, especially with Ginobili struggling so mightily. Still, I ain't giving up on the Spurs.
2011 Heat had Joel Anthony and the corpse of Mike Bibby playing meaningful minutes in the Finals. If Im not mistaken Miller and Haslem were hobbled and fresh off some injuries as well. And obviously as Ive said The Kings choke helped the Mavs alot as well. Mavs caught a load of breaks that year, werent really dominant...similar to this years Spurs imo. If the Spurs pull it off you wont hear me call my 2013 Espurs one of the best le teams ever like mav homers do thats for sure.
But the Mavs would not be denied
Is this a joke?
They lost their second best scorer for 2/3 of the season and the entire playoffs, lost Dirk and Chandler both for an extended period of time, and had chemistry issues trying to incorporate Roddy into the starting lineup, when they should have just let Stevenson continue starting as he was doing a great job in his role. IIRC they were on pace to win around 65+ games before all the injuries hit. They still won 57 games despite their challenges.
lol load of breaks
Most people don't say that the 2011 Mavs were one of the greatest champions ever. Most people say that it was one of the more impressive runs you will see, considering how poorly they finished the regular season, and were widely considered underdogs in basically every series they played in, played very tough compe ion, but persevered through it all and did so in a pretty dominant manner.
I would be a GNSF rather than a GNMF if i say the Mavs won the 11' le without a bit of luck. We were the underdogs against Lakers and OKC, and of course against the Heat as well. We were underdogs through the whole process which's similar to the spurs of this year. No one fancied our chances and there were even some heads predicting we would get defeated in the first round by the blazers
The lakers were still the team to beat in the west back then imho, and the mavs 11' path was much tougher than what the spurs got through this year. We took on the lakers who were fully healthy and fit, and then the Thunder who were a rising power with Harden still onboard, the team that face ed the spurs in the WCF a year later.
2011 Heat also had a much better version of Wade than this year
Not a Mavs homer, but I don't see how this even makes sense. They played the defending champion Lakers, Thunder, and the Heat, all three teams were healthy....were are these breaks you speak of?
Not to mention the collapse against Portland in game 4 reminiscent of the 2006 finals.
I'm a true Spurs fan, not one of those idiots who in 2011 were all hoping the Mavs won a championship simply for Dirk's sake, but I'd admit those Mavericks would beat the Spurs good. Dirk was too good & Chandler would neutralize this old Timmy (who simply doesn't want it as badly as those years Mavericks) & that zone that shut the Heat down would do much the same to these Spurs.
The 2011 Mavs had the perfect team to beat Miami. They easily would have been back in the Finals last season and could very well had ed it up again for Miami had they kept their core together. The 2013 Spurs team would compete but would go down in 5-6 games. Tyson Chandler was such a difference maker for that team. Of course playoff Dirk would also be a problem for the Spurs. That team also had multiple guys who could beat you. That Dallas team was really ing good.
Those breaks are on the sidelines watching Boris Diaw beating David Lee's ass at one on one.
