que?
if the spurs were in the mavs position everyone would be on thier balls like they are all over the en mavs (espn)![]()
probably not. when you're as good as the Spurs have been for as long as they have, everyone just kinda expects greatness and takes it for granted. that's why ESPN is so gay for the Suns, and gives alot more attention to Dallas than San Antonio.
I think you're seeing more coverage tonight because the Mavs-Cavs game was on their network.
no...... nobody gives the Spurs any respect
You're kidding, right?
Don't confuse getting time on Sportscenter to getting respect. The Spurs get plenty.
the allas (they have no D) mavs are the buffalo bills of the NBA
Did you just come up with that one on your own?
the number of idiot spurs fans rises by the day
the cavs need to rework their entire roster, danny ferry is killing lebron out there with what he's stuck with
Yeah, that comparison will fail to have any relevance by the time May comes to an end. Not that it does now, dumbass.
Both the Suns and Mavs are more exciting to watch than the Spurs...
The Spurs are bad for ratings and the casual NBA fan.
If the Spurs were setting some of the records the Mavs have this season they'd be getting talked about the same way...
(waits for reply about regular season meaning nothing, 3 rings to 0, etc)
Wow...pure genius...
See...even a fellow Spurs fan is ripping you![]()
they don't even give enough coverage to the mavs. If it was the Heat or Lakers with that record, they would be sucking the sweat from their balls like nothing u ever seen. it would be disgusting. So be glad at least it's the lame ass mavs.
i'm a spurs homer but the mavs actually play a little d this season. now if they choke again in the playoffs, that buffalo le may be deserving.
are you kidding me? its nothing compared to Phoenix. everyone wants to suck Steve Nash's on ESPN. its ing ridiculous. i think Tim Legler is actually gay for Nash.
San Antonio is just a little town in the desert that not many people care about or the people have little money so it is not profitable to put Spurs on tv.
WGAF
This thread is weak.
Don't mess with my Bills.
The Mavs pretty much play the same style as the Spurs now so I wouldn't put them in the "exciting" category with Phoenix anymore. The only difference is that the Mavs are more capable of playing the Sun's style than the Spurs if need be.
Spurs are not appealing, true.
But sorry to break it to you, Mavs are not appealing to a wide audience either. They have the boring german, Wil Smith's cousin and undercover brother who really goes undercover in the media and throughout long stretches in the games. who else? stackhouse? LOL mavs are almost as lame as Spurs. Or maybe lamer cause at least we got Eva Longoria.
No.
Lots of people hate the Mavs, ESPN just shows them on TV so most fans cheer for the other team.
That might be a small factor but it's mostly a combination of how good the team/game is and the markets that they're in. Dallas is a fairly large market while San Antonio is a small market so while the teams are both good the Mavs are going to get more games on ESPN/TNT, etc.. Also, I'd bet you that 80%+ people that don't live in Texas don't have a clue as to even what part of Texas San Antonio is in.
Maybe. But really, lots of people wants to see the Mavs lose and Heat win, but these people are really just mostly bandwagoners.
Im not from Texas, but honestly, I have no idea where San Antonio is.![]()
I actually like this theory. Hilarious!
The Mavs...good? Yes.
Exciting? Not by a long shot.
The Mavs USED TO BE an exciting team to watch, when they played like the Phoenix Suns. The Suns are the most exciting team to watch in the NBA. But the Mavs, who mostly play one-on-one basketball and shoot jump shots (except for Devin Harris who is the only Mav who scores in the paint), are one of the worst teams in the NBA in assists (#24 in assists), are not exciting to watch. Dirk is boring too. Fadeaway jumpshot, and ....that's it. What else does he do. Nothing. What they have over most teams is just a mental advantage. I've seen plenty of teams miss good looks at the basket, that they should make vs Dallas, that would have won the game or given them the lead.
You can't rank #24 in assists and win the championship come Finals time. 2006 should have been a lesson in needing to share the ball.
