We have heard this before...In fact, in the early 90's it was said ABOUT us before. Things are way different in a playoff series. You can look it up yourself.
No worries.
These guys are playing like gangbusters right now, 13 in a row hand Miami their asses tonight. It is hard to believe but they are finally playing some D and their offense is as crisp as ever. Plus having to probably play them in the 2nd round really sucks big time. If we are not totally healthy come playoff time they could definately take us out.

why three threads about the mavs?
they are playing good, but they have to prove if they can switch gears like other teams come play off time.
With Phoenix and Memphis fading, the date with Dallas is definitely on tap. I can't believe that MIA sucked that much tonight.
Miami is not going to get it together this year and it might their last shot with Shaq. The Pistons are going to cruise to the finals and if we get back it will be a mighty ass tough road.
It's a long season, fortunes change fast. Ask me who i'm worried about in May
_allas.
World Champions of the months of January and February.
Shaq is getting old. but they Pistions are going to the finals again, right now there is really no one in the east that can stop them. too bad the Jazz aren't in the east
I worry about nothing but injuries.
we are only scared of injuries, so bring on the allas
First - spurs have a better bench, are better at four of the five positions, have a better bench, and have consistently performed better than the mavs in the playoffs.
Second - what the does we should be worried about Dallas mean? Do the Spurs have to be thinking of the mavs every game they play? do we have to make a mavs post every five minutes? does any of this change the fact that the mavs have zero chance of beating the spurs in the post-season?
"spurs have a better bench"
Over the previous 10 games, how many points have the Spurs and Mavs benches averaged?
Obviously, the Mavs are playing very well. Of course, we all they don't hand out championship trophies in February. The second season is the MONEY season. That is where the we'll all see if the Mavs are for real.
The point being made is the Mavs are a far more dangerous this year than in years past. The Avery factor has given them that new defensive edge they were lacking. They finally have a defensive mindset, but they don't necessarily have good defensive players.
It remains to be seen whether their new concept can overcome their "lack" of good defensive players. No way will the Spurs take them lightly and we all know it will be a bang-up series if the two teams meet. Personally, I fully expect the Spurs to win out in the West and kick their butt in a playoff series.
Dallas can't guard Tony Parker.
Spurs in 6.
Dallas can guard Wade and Kobe but not Parker? Anyways it is team defense that will slow down Parker. Dallas has Diop waiting in the lane to block shots and change shots.
And the Spurs can't guard Dirk, what's your point? One man does not make a team.
We couldn't stop McGrady last year either, but we still sent em fishing.
Dallas kept Wade and Kobe in check by running three people at them when they drive, forcing a kick-out to the perimeter. We could afford that risk because Miami and L.A. doesn't have anyone that could punish us when left open, unlike San Antonio.
For some reason, they took that one game wherein Bowen purportedly forced Dirk to shoot awfully (when it could very well be attributed to the shooting slump he's been having) as a stigma that Bowen could shut down Dirk. He did have a great defensive play in the end though.
Little General will rise again!!!!
uR TEAM are a n joke, you guys cant gaurd BENO or MARKs even if ur lifeline depended on it.
I still prefer to have beno run the point than that scrub player tp
It's going to be to bad that we have to take the mavs out in the second round.
Mavs will get booted in the second round. I don't see anything special.
Alright it's time to put down that joint. Back to reality.
Parker vs. Terry. Terry is very similar to Billups. Billups a little stronger though but I think Terry can hold his own. It really depends on how Diop's help defense is also.
Ginobili vs. Griffin. Great pickup for Dallas and will be needed to slow down Ginobili.
Bowen vs. Josh Howard. Bowen will give Howard some trouble but I haven't seen Howard being contained since he goes in the flow of the offense well.
Diop and Dampier will guard Duncan. I think Diop can really bother Duncan because he is long and active. Even if he gets in foul trouble Dampier can help out.
Nowitzki vs. Nesterovic. Not even fair. At least put a center that can score. I'll assume that Bowen will have to leave Howard to guard Dirk some but this matchup highly favors Dirk.
As long as the Spurs stay healthy, no worries.
looks like 2nd round exit for the mavs to the hands of the spurs
