Six or seven.
Spurs in six
or Dallas in seven.
This is the best version of the mavs ever put together.
Problem is, they're facing the best Spurs team put together.
But Dallas has a good chance of stealing game 1.
Cant wait.
I figure cavs will get swepted
I would double or triple team lebron
lets see if james is as good as david robinson win they did that to him all the time

Look at each team's first round opponent. The Mav's made easy work of memphis. The starting five never broke a sweat. They have had a week off and no amount of shootarounds or practices compare to playing actual games. The Spurs were tested by the King's. They had their WTF moments and found their game in Game 5. They are slipping into the groove that won them the championship last year. The Mav's and Spurs play similar styles. It is going to come down to who executes the game plan better. One major differance between the Spurs and Mav's: The Spurs have a WAY Deeper bench! I look for the spurs in six!

I'll see your over the hill Van Exel and spot you Craphouse. I'll see your streaky outside shooter Finley and raise you Marquis Daniels. I'll see your reliable outside shooter Barry and spot you a penetrating slasher Devin Harris. Both these teams go 10 deep. Bench strength is even. These teams are pretty much even. For me, Dallas wins if they can maintain their newfound defensive intensity and exploit the mismatches they have, i.e. Duncan forced to guard Howard if Pop refuses to put him on Dirk early. San Antonio wins if Dallas can't keep Parker out of the lane, the Mavs are forced to double team Duncan, Horry doesn't need help keeping Dirk from going off and Finley, Barry and the others hit their outside shots.
No matter the outcome, Dirk folds.
I'm picking the Spurs in seven on account of home court advantage. In reality, the winner of Game Five wins the series. I see the two teams splitting the first four, with each team stealing a road win. If Dallas steals another in game five, they close the Spurs out at home. If San Antonio wins, then the home teams hold serve. In any event, Dirk is not soft. When I hear the word soft, I think of someone who is not mentally tough or who wilts under relentless physical pressure. That's not Dirk anymore. This ain't the old Nellie Mavs. We may not win this series, but we're not soft. And even if you get past us, you won't repeat with Duncan putting up 13 and 10 every night. Playing with that foot injury is courageous but you won't win a le for it. Last year it took a healthy Duncan and home court to BARELY get past Detroit in seven games. This year you don't have any of that. Pistons in six over the Spurs.
Duncan played the entire postseason last year on two bum ankles. You live up to the Mav fan stereotype of not knowing . If Parker hits his jumpers, and he will, he doesn't need the lane to punish you. Bring whatever you want, the Mavs are out in 5.

I'll believe it when I see it. Parker always fades in the postseason. Anyways, enjoy getting pounded by Detroit.
Wait so Duncan is eternally injuried? Seriously just stop the BS about Tim being injuried in every ing situation....(I know he is injured with his for got gay scientific name, but I a Mavs fan do know what is wrong with him). I'm just tired of everyone saying that every ing spurs player is injuried. This is part of the game stop ting yourself over him being injuried, the played more minutes this season the last season. Why would that be, if he is so dramatically injuried. His injury takes up to 6 months to a year to heal his heel, yet he was even played more at the end of the season...
I look at this as Timmy's beginning of his downside of his game. Reason why T-Park had a better year, he took form Timmy
But. seriously I' dont want to hear about him being injuried every ing time... get over it, it's part of him now...
did you just concede the series?
