What if Mavs Played Spurs?

[DAF86]

Many still not accepting the Spurs were just not very good when matched up with the top teams in the league. The spurs fattened up on the weak teams in the league and caught many schedule breaks early in the season with playing teams missing players. In the 2nd half that began to turn when the spurs had to deal with the injury to Duncan and teams starting to play better gearing up for the playoffs.

One look at the roster and you should have known this spurs team was not a championship contender. They brought back the same core team that got swept by Phoenix.

They also brought the same core that beat Dallas without HCA last season. The Spurs may haven't been as good as their record, but I'm sure they could have presented a fight against Dallas and even beat them.

Duncan wasn't a tired old bag last year
