Nowitzki, Terry: Lakers are team to beat

[20beastie45]

Spurs are the team to "catch" but the Lakers are still the team to "beat" nothing has change since two months ago....

Also, Am I the only one who was disgusted with letting the Cavs grab 16 Offensive Rebounding..I guess you can let that slide cause we won by a bunch, But once they grab a O reb. they are already deep in the paint and we don't have the shot blocking length to contest when so deep.

I'm sorry guys, I LOVE my spurs but this will simply not get it done against longer more physical rebounding teams. IMO Defense and Rebounding win games and Championships. What good is Defense if we can't grab a rebound against the Cavs?

So maybe we should have someone on our team say the Mavs and Lakers are the teams to beat.

Here's the truth...

When the mavs play the lakers this year in the playoffs...

the mavs will assume the fetal position and/or bend over for the lakers the way they always do...because they fear the lakers...they are already conceding...

if the mavs had the same at ude against the lakers that they have against the spurs--the mavs would finally beat the lakers...but they are scared.

The Mavs have not played the Lakers in the playoffs since the 1980's. But yep, the Mavs are hoping to "finally" beat them. What a thorn in the Mavs' side they've been!
