you mean "when"...
we wont be able to beat dallas...if spurs win 2nite they gon beat kings in arco arena
you mean "when"...
Uh, OK. Whatever.
spurs match up better against dallas then kings
kings give spurs matchup problems
drazo's post count = drazo's IQ
Bonzi Wells gives the Mavs fits as well. They have never been able to stop him (even when he was in Portland).
The Spurs will have a really tough time beating Dallas unless they figure out a better way to guard both Dirk & Howard. It became apparent that Duncan can't guard Howard and that is what the Spurs want to do to try to control Dirk with the others.
horry guards howard
horry did not play when howard went off
he was not even at the game
Sorry Spurs fans. Sorry Pistons fans. Sorry Mavs fans.
Stern wants Kobe v. LeBron or Kobe v. Shaq in the finals.
Most likely, Shaq.
LA Lakers v. Miami Heat in the 2006 NBA Finals.
I think the Spurs have a better chance to beat Dallas than they do the Kings, to be perfectly honest.
uh, sarcasm.
I think the Kings pose the most serious challenge in the West. If we beat the Kings, I'm not scared of anybody else except Detroit.
There should be some kind of tongue-in-cheek emoticon ... although I'm sure it'd be somewhat obscene.![]()

You'll change your mind when we in the middle of round 2
and Miami IS going down in 1st or 2nd round
Its about matchups -- we matchup better with Dallas at this point.
The Spurs would beat the Mavs.
I don't know. As a Mavs fan I would like to agree with you...but when SA gets past Sacto, they will execute a more concerted effort on Dallas. I think game 3 was a lack of respect for Sacto. SA knows how good Dallas is and will not let up. I think that will be the difference for SA vs. Dallas. That being said, I think that series goes to 7 where anything can happen, but unforunately SA will have HCA.
Obscene?

that's what ppl were saying at begining of 1st round. That we would sweep the Kings.
I kept trying to remind ppl. this 1st round is gonna go 6 games. and the Dallas one is gonna be even tougher, 7 games.
Perfect!![]()
No doubt it owuld be a tough series against Dallas.
I had a "healthy" respect for the Kings coming into this series, as I said the Spurs would win in 6 game -- the Kings are tough!
The Spurs and Dallas know each other quite well so I would not worry about a letdown in that series.
what letdown???? it would be a letdown if we lose game 5, which we won't. All Kings did was take care of home court like every decent self respecting team should. And we still WOULD be 3-1 if not for that freak play in game 3. Ppl meed to stop panicking, this is going as Pop planned all along.
I wouldn't say SA matches up better with Dallas. Why? because SA is struggling with Sacramento? In game 2, Sacramento didn't even have Artest and they still nearly won that game. It might have to do more with Duncan's foot and age(30) and Ginobili's slight decline in productivity. Honestly, I just don't think Duncan is the same Duncan he was last year. Rahim is holding more than his own against him right now. When Dirk has faced up Duncan this year, he simply runs around him for the easy j from the elbow or layup...or draws the foul. I've seen Murphy(GS) take Duncan to the hole with relative ease, same with Kaman. I'm telling you, Duncan is not the dominant defensive force in the paint he once was even a year ago. If Kieth Van Stupid hadn't thrown the ball out of bounds in that 2nd game in Dallas with under a min. left and the lead, Dallas wins that game...and ur looking at a 3-1 reg. season success for the Mavs. However, Sacto is obviously no 8th seed team. They are clearly a top 4 team in the west and Dallas was fortunate to get Memphis in the 1st round. But to say that Sacto is a better matchup than Dallas is a bit premature IMO. Dallas is ballin' right now, no doubt.
What about the "freak bounce" in game 2. Very selective memory you have.
True, but other teams have been able to take care of their opponents on the other guys court...
Pacers vs. Nets Game 1
Wiz vs. Cavs Game 1
Lakers vs. Suns Game 2
Cavs vs. Wiz Game 3
Mavs vs. Griz Game 3
Clips vs. Nugs Game 4
Nets vs. Pacers Game 3
Mavs vs. Griz Game 4
Pistons vs. Bucks Game 4.
I'd say Kings are at LEAST as self-respecting as the Wiz, Pacers, Lakers and Nets.
Tip off in 6-1/2 hours.
