    They are also the one team who knows how to choke no matter what situation they are in.

    Well for those of you who are not living here in Dallas let me just give you an update from the Mavs fandom here (including myself)....The Sky is Definitely Falling!

    All is breaking lose here. People are jumping ship faster than the anic. I am hearing calls for Avery's head, Dirk to be traded for Kobe, Harris and Stack to be traded for Kidd and on and on.

    It's pretty bleak right now.

    But weren't the Spurs fandom in an uproar 2 months into the season last year? and didn't that turn out pretty dam good!

    Yes the Knee-Jerkers are out in full force in Big D.

    It's all according to Avery's plan.

    The Mavs are emulating the Spurs Dec-Feb doldrums, eg, last year, Spurs going 13-12 after 20 Dec.

    The 2 best things when the Mavs lose:
    The look on Cuban's face that would curdle milk
    The look on AJ's face like he just bit into a sandwich

    To you Mavs fans:

    Where is Cuban the Geek? I didn't see him last night nor at our game night before, parading up and down the sidelines, aka Jerry Jackass Jones. Oh, wait a minute, he's touring with Dancing With the Stars, geeking it up some more.

    What a freak !!!!

    As a Dallas resident, I admit that even I have heard mixed signals coming from AJ since the season began. First the Mavs were going to "pace" their way through the season. They weren't going to try to win a championship during the regular season like they did last year.

    Then a month or so later, AJ comes out and declared that EVERY game is important and that the team goes out and prepares to win every single game - which is what you're supposed to say.

    The point is, that team doesn't seem to know who they are or how the they're supposed to play. They have no roles players. No iden y. Just a bunch of well-paid guys who have been the "man" somewhere else, or are trying desparately to be the man now.

    From the ownership, to the coaches and down to the players, they're all a bunch of overhyped smack-talkers. Oh by the way, their latest annual slogan is, "it's all about the D".

    I hope they never figure it out.

    The Mavs may well prove they could bottle lightning only once and their days as frontrunner are over, but it's far too early to declare them any worse than they were when they beat us in seven games. They can definitely turn it around; but at the moment, we're seeing some structural problems they were able to mask for a while.

    I heard former Mavs PG Derek Harper refer to the team's current malaise as sort of a post-playoff failure syndrome. His claim was that he was part of one of the Mavs playoff teams of the 80's where that team was one of the top 2 or 3 seeds in the playoffs that year. It turns out they were upset by the Seattle Sonics in the first round. According to Harp, the loss of that series haunted the team throughout the next year. He thinks that's what this team is going through.

    I hope they trade Harris and someone else for Kidd.

    That would make matching up with them so much easier.

    how would that explain 2006 when they were upset by the heat? they came out and won 67 games.

    sounds like excuses to me in all honesty.

    It is. That is primarily what everyone associated with organization is known for - making excuses....that and copying their organizational and team strategies from the Spurs, of course.
