At this point of the Spurs season, I would agree. PHX > SA
It's San Antonio though.![]()
I'm not saying it myself--too crass--but that's (apparently) what they believe in Dallas:

It seems kind of harsh to me--a couple of bad losses in January, and you Spurs fans are reduced to arguing with Jazz fans over 3rd place. I mean, you can even claim your team is missing a couple of key letters.8. Welcome to Mavs season.
The Mavs' thumping of the Spurs in the city by the dirty bathtub is a reminder of what we should have all known: The Mavs are the best team in the NBA.
No longer is the real threat Santonio. It is Phoenix. The Spurs are aging fast. The Suns are just fast. What we may be seeing, however, is the Mavs are about to do to Phoenix what the Spurs used to them.
Frustrate them. Year. After year. After year.
So, save your popcorn for that NBA Finals run.
The Dallas media isn't having any of that, though. They know what it takes to win a championship, and the Spurs no longer make the grade...![]()

Their threat is the LA Lakers.
The newspaper misspelled San Antonio? or that's just a fan comment?
Anyway, yes Mavs fans have been saying the same thing in other threads.
The Dallas media is re ed. If they truly think the Spurs aren't a threat to them, they're gonna regret it come playoff time.
Its funny coz its so premature. The Spurs will be in the finals.
Manu is getting back into dominating form, TP is his usual crafty self and Duncan always steps up when it counts.
Heck they would have been in the finals last year if Manu was his old self.
Call me in June if the Mavs or Suns are in the finals![]()
Its the media, they don't do much game playing so I doubt they'll regret much.
Right now half the NBA is better than the Spurs.
Apparently it's some sports radio chick.
Hoopsworldworthy.
I meant all of Dallas. The city, the fans, the players, the team...
And you think 15 teams are better than the Spurs? At this point, all I can think of is Dallas and Phoenix (maybe).
The Spurs are still a threat, but I definitely think the Suns are the bigger threat now for the Mavs. The Suns seem pretty confident that this will be their year.
I can't believe nobody picked up on this.
Panic really has set in around here.
I bet you guys didn't really see Miami as a threat either. Look how that turned out.![]()
Funny that SA is aging fast, and PHO is "just fast". Steve Nash is three years older than any of our Big Three. The bad news for PHO is that he's 33 and playing a career high 36 minutes per contest.
I cen't believe you didn't pick up our picking up of this.
I definitely learned not to think anything with the Mavs is a sure thing.
as it exists now, the suns are more dangerous to the mavs than the spurs. the mavs know so much about the spurs that they are more confident in their abilities to stop them. the suns, however, are a young, speedy enigma. none if this fear is substantiated, yet.
phoenix is a better team in the regular season.
Spurs look like they're on their last leg.
Too old and no hunger.
Great post. You are so witty and clever. I look forward to many more posts from you.
I love it. The Spurs flying under the radar.
If the team is at full strength, Phoenix definitely has the best team of the three.
1. Phoenix
2. Dallas
3. San Antonio
Yes, the Spurs are horrible....Remind me how many RINGS do Dallas and Pheonix have combined over the past 10 years.....NONE....Oh, I wonder why? Maybe there more concerned with hanging Division and Conference Championship Banners? Whatever floats your boat. The Spurs have begun the season poorely on numerous occassions. You know what happened........WAIT TILL JUNE.....don't believe me go back and analyze the Spurs record throughout the 99', 03', '05 seasons. I believe, even the Mavericks were in first place at some point during the 05' season. According to your statement, the Mavericks should have won in 2005. What about 03'...Why couldn't you guys hack it then? Your team is so great, yet some SLOW ASS white guy beat you......TWICE....haha....Yet, the Mavericks beat us once....one series, which was poorely called, BOTH WAYS....If you honestly think the Mavericks best basketball could beat the Spurs best basketball, you need to go back to school. The Spurs have been doing this a long time, and personally, until the Mavericks can net the big one, your pathetic words are of little value. One good season doesn't count for nothing unless you got that ring baby!!!! Not even 10 great seasons. Why do you suppose Michael Finely came to the Spurs? Enough said, especially when your frachise All-Star guard moves over to your rival. Oh wait, make that two all-star guards (Nash). Wow, I bet players are chompin at the bit to play in Dallas....They would rather come and swim in are disease infested river than to bear a Mavericks uniform...That or live in the desert....Who can blame them?![]()
DFW media knows all about what it takes to win a NBA le in January.
