Stop raising the Mavs up so much. They couldn't get past an eight seed, they don't deserve to be mentioned in talks about beating the Spurs or Suns later in the playoffs. They have to earn it, and they didn't.

Lol, typical Spur fan. Short-term memory heh? I guess going through SA and Pho in 06 to the Finals wasn't earning anything, would love to here your excuse on that one.
You are right about one thing though, the Spurs did get lucky in the playoffs last year--lucky they didn't play Dallas. Of course, "they lost to an 8 seed how can you say that!" Dallas was built to beat SA b/c for so long the road to the title has been through SA--in 06 they beat them and then got jobbed in the finals. Last year, that team was once again primed and ready to go--they just had one big hole and that was facing big 1-2 guards--neither of which SA has. GS was Dallas' kryptonite last year, go back and look at Dallas' reg season performance against every team in the NBA and then look at how they fared against GS...they may have fixed those holes this year, we shall see.
And I didn't even go into the luck job against Pho--that was an all-timne hack job.
