If the spurs play the way the did last year I don’t know the were dominant untl they got to the 70 mark And This Year With a shorter season they will have something to say about a repeat

Looking at the NBA landscape, whoever gets out of the East will be a tough matchup, presumably Chicago or Miami. But the West is shakier in terms of dominant teams. OKC you have to think will be better and probably the greatest threat to Dallas. I expect the Lakers to slip significantly, the Spurs will be pesky but beatable, and then you’ve got the Grizzlies and Clippers who will be a headache. But it isn’t the Lakers of old they have to get through. My pick is OKC to win the west, but I think it’s very realistic to expect to see Dallas back again.

Every Championship takes luck to win.

The Mavs took one of the hardest routes possible, facing multiple NBA first and second teamers every round.
They had injuries to Butler, Haywood and Nowitzki.

They sure rolled some ones as well.
No need to diminish what they did. It was more than just luck

You’re high dude! Many more NBA fans hate the Heat than hate the Mavs. I’m not a fan of either team, but I sure was pulling for the Mavs to beat the Heat and LeJerk. As usual Lebron was a 4th quarter no show and we all know what happened.

You Heat fans may want to tune in a bit late to the first game so you don’t have to watch your team see the Mavs Championship banner being raised.

Chandler is the only loss worth noting from this team. They won w/o Butler & JJ is a nice backup PG, but I’d rather have Delonte for 1/3 the price. Cuban is one of the sports truly elite owners as he (and Donnie Nelson) continuously put an elite product on the floor despite a changing economic landscape. I think there are about 25 fanbases who would trade their owner for Cuban in a nano-second

Its possible, depending on how hungry they are and how healthy! I think the only threat to them getting to the finals is the thunder!

Of course they won’t They shouldn’t have won it the first time. Most people on PBT were hoping that the Mavericks airplane would go down on the way back to Dallas so that a championship ring never touched one of their fingers.

Mark Cuban is a damn good owner who cares about his franchise and continually puts a winning product out on the court.

I’m a Laker fan but i can respect him for how he treats his franchise the exact same way i have no respect and no faith for the Clippers while Donald Sterling is the owner.

I see 1 thumbs up and 10 tumbs down for you right now, clearly you’re the idiot

No Chandler. No Barea. JT caught up in contract concerns. Dirk not gonna have another run like that and Odom will be a walking space cadet all season. And of course Cuban, he STFU’d for once in his life and they did great. Now, he’s back to his old boorish ways, and that’s always been the nail in the Mav’s coffin.
