be honest do you really want to play the Mavericks?

[mikeanthony21]

[QUOTE=Re-Animator]If you said yes, then your either new as a Spurs fan, or your the most ignorant species on earth.

There is not one team in the NBA that wants any part of the Dallas Mavericks and I know coach Pop, and his aging players don't either.But unfortunately you can't always get what you want. look at the bright side, maybe the Spurs will do the fans a favor and just end it quickly and go out in the first round to save them and the city of San Antonio any embarrassment.why go through all that pain?

So be honest Spur fans, do you really want to play the Mavericks?

I didn't think so.

Yes, Re-gurgitator, we do. Now go back to sleep.

I didn't think so.

No, I personally do not want to play the '06'07 Mavericks.
I really fantasize about playing the '99/03 Spurs.
That would be raising the bar considerably.
Sigh, just a fantasy.
Playing the Mavericks is my second choice, I'm just being "realisitic"

[samikeyp]

I wouldn't want to play the Mavericks. I'm old, slow and have bad knees.

However, if the Spurs meet them in the playoffs...that should be fun.

[George Gervin's Afro]

revenge? you bet. I HOPE we play the Mavs!

Now that's just wrong..

I think the opposite is true. I think the Mavs fans really understimate San Antonio. But that's the way we like it!

[Obstructed_View]

Not wanting to meet and beat the Mavericks in the post-season would be idiocracy.

[Tbiggums]

I want a Spurs vs. Mavs WCF. Yes it will be tough to win it. But we should see great basketball between two great teams. I want the spurs to prove they are the best team. And if they don't I want them to fall with honor against a strong team.
Are the Mavs favorite? I think so. But they can be beaten.
Let start with PO!!!

I agree. You tell that the Mavs are a hard up city looking for a championship to be given to them. They think the regular season promises them a spot in the finals. I've been checking them out. Teams are starting to defend their little perimeter game better and they don't look that mighty anymore. Kudos to Dallas for bustin out of the gate and maintaing it but SA inspite of the regular season record look primed for another run to finals.

B/C they don't know what they are saying. They just flap their gums to get a reaction from Champs! Remember they are not used to being included in the championship conversation?

[Duncanoypi]

do you really want to play the mavericks?

do we have a choice?

[Obstructed_View]

Only losers duck the tough compe ion. Oh yeah, Maverick fans.

[StylisticS]

...except the original poster.

Probably shouldn't have taken this thread seriously. As you can see, he hasn't made an appearance in his own thread. He did his job and many of us took the bait.

[Tbiggums]

These y Mavs fans remind me of how I was in '95 when we had the best record in the NBA, MVP, made it to the WCF, etc... 10 years old and pretty damn giddy

I know man...Mavs fan is hard up!

And where is your Basketball Championship>

[monosylab1k]

This thread is idiocratic.

[Tbiggums]

I agree, but don't worry the Spurs won't get to face the Mavs anyway.

Dude..go away!

[cheguevara]

LOL mav fans so worried about us, they start threads like these. Patience my choker friends. We WILL meet this playoffs.

[DarrinS]

You always want to play the best team on the road to the finals. The Spurs have played tougher opponents in playoff history than this years Mavs.


The Mavs have a great playoff tradition in this decade, that we, as Spurs fans, don't want to see end.

uh no, we're not worried.

no. 1 reason i want the spurs/mavs matchup?

tix are always available for any spurs game on ticketmaster at face value and san antonio is only an hour's drive away so i can load up the car with people who will cheer for the mavs...combine that with my playoff tix up in dallas and i'm good to go

a close second would be the look on spurs fans' faces when they lose in AAC

I don't think the Mavs are worried, but neither are the Spurs. , the Spurs had to play the two-headed monster of Kobe and Shaq almost every year. Does the original poster actually think we're going to be worried about the Mavs? These two teams respect each other, but they are not afraid to play each other. People shouldn't overlook the Rockets either. They're playing good ball right now and just beat a team that always gives the Spurs s -- I mean fits.

[lefty]

Why would the Spurs be worried ? As DarrinS said, they've seen enough not to be impressed

yeah, the original poster is being stupid with the trolling. i agree, neither team should be worried about playing the other and all of the fans should be excited about the prospect of a rematch. as for the rockets, you're right, we played a seven game first round series against them two years ago and every game was compe ive save for the last game. actually, the second round matchups (and maybe some of the first) are going to be so much fun, i wouldn't even begin to think about the wcf.

I expect the Rockets to beat Utah and be the Mav's 2nd round opponent.

True ; when 100 % healthy, Rockets are dangerous ; plus , they are well coached and have improved their D.

If top teams are healthy, playoffs in the West are gonna be

i've never understood why these two have to be exclusive. why not be NOT worried and impressed at the same time? looks tougher but then i guess if you're the type who doesn't want to acknowledge anything good about another team no matter what, then so be it
