Mavs continue to show why they deserve respect.. they just gutted out a very good win against the memphis grizzlies. Considering that they did this on a back to back HOME to AWAY game.. it's something alright.
Anyway, the Spurs haven't really proven anything yet this season.. they've lost to Detroit twice and the Mavs are 1-0 against the pistons and 1-1 against our team so I think they do deserve to be #2 in the power rankings. Hope the Spurs return to championship form due to this 8 game rodeo indeed..

On a side note, don't you guys think Miami is a little over rated and over publicized this season!? I mean it's too obvious that they don't stand a chance against the Spurs, Mavs, Pistons and Suns.
Thanks for the compliment on Dallas. It should be a interesting race to see who gets first. It doesn't seem like either can lose.
