I still don't see why people make that distinction. They still had to go the 4 rounds in the playoffs. Is not like the 99 playoffs was shorten.
true. still an asterisk year.

32 less games = not a real season.
actually i just like how calling 99 an asterisk year pisses off Spurs fans.
After tonight, Mavs are a half-game ahead of where the Pistons were a year ago. At that pace, they might stretch the Western Conf. Finals to seven games.
Exactly. Stupid people like to play that card when they have nothing better to say. The Spurs may have played 50 games or so and won the le, but because it was only 50 regular season games, it's an asterik. Let them call it what they want, because we all know damn well they'd rather have an "asterik" championship than no championship.
Besides, we have 2 other championships anyway.
Mav fan thinks regular season makes the championship.I guess we know why you guys are so thrilled about being 45-9 or whatever.

To be honest, it doesn't really piss me off when some one says that. I think most spurs fans have tougher skin then that. Nothing ever can or will take away from the memories most of us have of that season.![]()
Would you be saying that if the Mavericks won it then?
Yeah, I mean, it's not like you have anything that your own team has done to throw in our face. But congrats on enjoying an asterisk. Trophies are much nicer, though.
obviously it does bother spurs fans quite a bit, seeing how defense some people have gotten, especially when he said he was just joking around.
Any team that won it that year gets an asterisk.
Enjoy your 2.5 championships.
So you would suggest that Maverick fans should be not thrilled with 45-9? Upset about it?
We should do bad in the regular season? Is that the way the model works? Win enough to get in the playoffs but just don't win that many games.
Isn't it 32 less games for all the teams?
And that season had a regular play off sked?
You probably said something similar last year, right?

hmm... well i like most REAL fans of the sport - dont put too much into anything regular season... of course, im going to enjoy the #1 seed, the best record, the 3 10+ win streaks... but that dont mean if they dont become a BEAST in the playoffs...
i dont watch many spur/suns games, but i do keep up with them on espn and i take note of how well the spurs are starting to click and how they are on a roll... big ups to the Spurs bc i knew they had it in them to get over the injury bumps and the lack of winning... it's the Spurs... NO FAN OF BASKETBALL CAN EVER COUNT THEM OUT... THEY ARE THE SPURS... the same SPURS that have played some of the best basketball the last 4 yrs or so have seen. Any MAV fan can admit... the playoffs were all either way last year, the bounce of the ball coulda went anyway...
the MAVS CHOKED last year... YEAH. EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT.
most MAV FANS have accepted that... most real BBALL fans know that... but ppl like AMARELOOMS... (*how he's a mav fan with the name AMARELOOMS i still dont understand*) I dont even want to understand... serves no purpose 2.
The threads these days... man...
The only thing more annoying than a Mavs fan who is delusional to a fault about the supposed greatness of his team is a Mavs fan that feels the need to suck up to Spurs fans.
And Suns fans are more annoying than either.
You're an idiot!!!

hope this wasnt directed at me... if it was... sorry the truth hurts. im not just a homer MAV fan... unlike most on this site... i like the game of BASKETBALL... not just the MAVS.
sorry if we are all supposed to be "All Praise the MIGHTY MAVS for a great season... but lets forget the way they choked it all in the FINALS... and lets all discredit any team that might step up and beat us in the playoffs"... unfortunately - i face the realities of the game...
Get a clue re ....man some of the people on here must be the dumbest people on the planet![]()
haha you trying to steal a page from my book partner? We all know you are a big homer. I'm the only non-homer Mavs fan on here...
I've warned you man... speaking of dumb is josh howard mad at the league now? he is/was mad at the coaches and now he is mad at who knows... will you and your players stop being pussies and just play?
Wasn't directed at you at all. Don't recall quoting you or anything. Alot of other people have posted in this thread besides you.
I've given plenty of credit and respect to the Spurs this year. I just don't like the Mavs fan that feels the need to apologize for liking their team just because the Spurs won those championships back whenever the they won them i can't even remember.
I believe I expressed disdain with the delusional Mavs fan who wants to hail their greatness 55 games into a season as well. So what exactly are you talking about here?
Spoken like an intellegent Mav fan!
