There is no point to this thread. We already know the facts.
1) The Mavs choked in the finals. Therefore, they will choke again. It is inevitable, because teams do not improve or change. What is always will be.
2) The Spurs struggled earlier in the season, and due to that fact and the fact that they were not in the finals last season, they will, again, fail.
3) The Spurs are old and boring, no one cares, no one watches, and this is another reason why they will fail. And because San Antonio sucks as a city.
4) The Spurs have three rings. The Mavs have none. Clearly, this will be a Lakers/Spurs/Celtics race for the le. Just LOOK at those championship banners.
