Bring on the Mavs...

[anonoftheinternets]

Very good post. Finally someone here who is able to make a solid analysis without talking nothing but trash. I expect a very close series and I wouldn't be surprised to see it coming down to the wire. I expect a 7-games-series and both teams are able to win.

i think we are all aware of this ... teams are both good, with mavs having a edge because of the butler/haywood trade ... all the other posts are just trash talking... just ignore it.

Spurs have Manu Ginobili.
A Manu that is Manu.

Enough said.

This poster is wise.

the Mavs

[ZB 512]

Calling it right now (Spurs 4 Mavs 1 - over in 5 games) - if the Spurs do indeed play the Mavs as expected - Spurs split first two then sweep last three games as the Mavs fold like cheap shirts. Parker, Hill and Manu will take turns running circles around the Mavs this year.

hahaha

ha

you a betting man?

lock and loaded.

Wait a second, people actually think a relatively healthy squad of Manu Ginobili, Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Gregg Popovich are going to lose to Dirk Nowitzki, Jason Terry, Jason Kidd, and Rick Carlisle?

....lol. Spurs in 3.

Thanks to the 2-3 guys that actually tried to talk about the teams and potential matchups.

Unfortunately there was again the bunch of one liners trash talker that couldnt stay in the 2652 trash threads in the NBA forum and ruined this nice thread.

Can someone please present the scenario (in an easily digestible form) of how the Spurs avoid the Mavs in the 1st round?

I am trying to figure out who or what to root for.

Thank you in advance.

Utah wins out and Mavs lose to the Spurs. That simple. There are no other possible scenarios; only UT and DAL can get the 2 seed.

This is all assuming the Spurs don't end with the 6th seed because of a POR loss to Golden State though.

Thanks, I needed that.

Found this, thought it was funny & pretty cool!!

This is way off.

Mavs might tank if they want an outside shot at facing Portland.

I was thinking this very thing...I'm not arguing that the Mavs are scared of San Antonio, but let's face it, the Spurs are this year's "lower seed that no one wants to face in the first round" (they're playing their best ball of the year at the right time) and a Roy-less Blazers team probably means a quick 4 or 5 game series, and probably a good amount of rest before the second round, which EVERY team would love to have.

as long as michael finley is not in the line up sky is the limit for the spurs

[guzmangm]

they won't play their scrubs, they need to win.

Oh sorry, didn't understand what you meant in your last post. I still believe though, that if this late in the game, the Spurs are still having issues, and can't take a gimmie, (Mavs off night tonight) then they are gonna be one and done anyway...
