I ain;t callin you just laughing at him calling someone a bag
Another starved for attention mavericks fan. Still want to sit at the big kids table, but just not quite there yet.
You guys are playing good, but alot of teams play good, and still loose.
I don't know, you may win the le this year, but its far from a lock. Id still say its far from a lock if you guys went undefeated this year. Look at how bad you choked last year.
We will see what happens when it counts. I do know one thing, you wont walk over this spurs team, regardless of their short comings. It will be a compe ion. This team is built from champions and lead by champions from the top down, unlike the "we got something to prove" at ude perpetrated in dallas, we have proven it, and we have practiced it, and it is in everything we do. Champions get it done when it counts, and dont really worry about the consolation prizes.
so...best of luck, but id hold your wallet, and dont go betting the farm on a win quite yet.

Spurs will win against the Mavs. There are just too many bad teams in the league and only a handful of good, consistent teams (Detroit, SA, Suns) that could really compete with the Mavs.
Dirk vs. Elson------------------Who the is ELSON??????????????
Tim vs. Dampier/Diop----------TIM better make his free Throws
Ginobili vs. Terry--------------Good Match UP but Terry will light up MANU
Bowen vs. Howard------------LOL!! Bowen is going to get OWNED!!!!
Parker vs. Harris---------------Great Match UP Tie
MAVS in 5
No surprise Kobe forgot concept of TEAM defense.![]()
You calling Tony vs Harris a tie makes everything you said invalid and idiotic. Even if you hate the Spurs you cant call that a tie. I hope Kobe goes snowboarding next
Honestly, Mavs don't have what it take to win it this year ; Yeah they have won tons of games this season BUT...
They remind me of Detroit : in 2005 Dtroit went to the Finals, lost ; the following season, they win tons of games, are really impressive during the regular season, but fail in the playoffs.....
Be warned
Who will go in our place then? The Spurs?![]()
Well, obviously...
GO SPURS GO
Not too frustrating, considering regular season records don't mean , proved by many teams in the past.
I'll be sure to bump this thread in June.
Honestly, I do think it's all about the Spurs and Mavericks this year and it will be a tough, tough series. The teams are pretty even. Better starting five for the Spurs (assuming Manu is starting in the playoffs), but better bench for the Mavs (unless Manu is still on the bench come playoff time). It's going to be a close series, probably going to 6 or 7 games, all being down to the wire nail-biters. So enough with the smack, because the Spurs looked like beasts last year, favored to kick Dallas' ass, and they got beat, just like the Mavs and Heat.
Only time will tell. Until the WCF rolls around, we won't know who's going to kick who's ass.
no, its not a tie, because Devin owned Tony last year. Tony may have had a better series statistically, but Devin was clearly the better playmaker and played some damn good defense while he was in there.
I know this much about the playoffs: A team can dominate the whole regular season, but they lose one of their first two home games and PRESTO!, the first 82 mean nothing.
Playing to get home court is one thing. Doing something with that advantage is entirely another.
*jinxed*
The biggest difference between the mavs and spurs is the center position. Everything else is a tie but Dampier is clearly better than Oberto or Elson.
If the Spurs stopped acting so weak watch out Dallas. When I watched the San Antonio @ Detroit game this season the Spurs were different in some way. They won, but they let Detroit almost win the game even though Detroit was already in Vegas for the All Star Break. If San Antonio gets their act together watch out. All it takes is a couple guys getting hot. It's always good to not be perfect in the regular season because it keeps the team working hard, Pistons learned that the hardest way last season. Dallas may be winning right now, but I think the West is even more open than the East. Dallas can obviously win. Phoenix and the Spurs are right their as well. Houston could get in if they are on their game. A combo of AI and Melo is deadly. Kobe can will his team to victory. Utah is underrated as well.
All this crap about your reg season means nothing if you can't hold serve on your court. If the Suns or Spurs get a split of the first 2 games in your building then your regular season amounted to nothing. You guys really need to tone it down a bit. The Mavs have never won when it all was on the line and until you do the EGO is a bit dumb if you ask me. There have been plenty of teams that won a load of games in the Reg season and not the le, just look at the 64 win Pistons last year. A team that actually won a le together and were 1 qtr away from winning back to back les.
It's only a jinx if I make a prediction. I was simply stating fact. :P
The Mavs are not guaranteed to beat anyone in the playoffs. Duh. That's why they play the games instead of the league just handing out trophies midseason.
But still, there's two things I don't understand that some Spurs fans are saying. First of all, they keep holding the Mavs' record against them. (lefty) That's not an argument, it's a dismissal. Sure, there are teams that put up great records and don't win the le, and there are teams with mediocre regular season records that win it all. But that doesn't mean the Dallas' high winning percentage is somehow an indication they're going to fail in the playoffs. And don't say they're overexerting in the regular season because you can bet your ass everyone else is trying just as hard as they are right now.
Second, I don't really see what Spurs fans claim the Mavs have to "watch out" for when/if they play the Spurs in the playoffs. If anything, they're the exact same team that lost to Dallas last year. Should be a good series, but I don't see why the Mavs should feel any more threatened than they were last year (quite a handful, but nothing new).
Oh, and SpursTalk really needs to get rid of that annoying dancing pink elephant. Yikes.
I've always disagreed with the definition that HCA belongs to the team that can win the series by only winning their home games. That's because I believe HCA has more to do with playing Game 7 at home.
Think of it this way. If Team A has HCA advantage over Team B and they split the first two games, does Team A really lose HCA? All they have to do is split games 3 and 4 to get it back. And this time, at 2-2, HCA plays a huge role now, since Team A gets both games 5 and 7 at home, instead of just game 6. That is a much bigger advantage than the original advantage at the beginning of the series, and all they did was split the first four games.
In other words, after splitting the first two games, Team B would have to win BOTH games 3 and 4 in order to preserve their supposed "HCA". But that means they're now up 3-1. That's not just HCA, that's going in for the kill.
In my opinion, Team B only has HCA if it goes up 2-0, or 3-2 (or 3-1, but game 5 isn't played at home except in the finals). I believe the privilege of playing certain critical games at home, particulary 5 and 7, needs to be taken into account when discussing HCA, not just the quan y of games left at each location.
Man the Spurs have been on a roll...what an 8 game winning streak...IMPRESSIVE. How many games have they make up on the Mavs? Hmmmm....ZERO lol!!!
Hey bag Mavsfan, it's not about catching up to the Mavs. It's about kicking your ass in the playoffs, just like last year. Oh wait, we got beat last year.....well TAKE THIS MOTHER ER HOW BOUT SOME 3 RINGS BEYATCH! 3 OF EM BABY! David Stern is mailing us our "You Won The le Two Years Ago" trophy! Whoo Hoo! Party Time!
You are the worst poster by far on this board
