Mavs vs. Warriors

[imported_mega]

It seems like Philly is better with Miller and Iggy running the show. Obviously they arent going to make a run at the finals or anything but it wouldnt surprise me at all if they make the playoffs next year.

if you took the current team that the mavs have minus dirk and added nash and finley back i guarntee that you would win the championship...the only reason for the suns struggles are their style of play aside from amare all the other role players pretty much rely on the fast offense and no defense style of play and taking jumpshots and if you ar enot one that night and making your jump shots then you are screwed...i am hoping that it is the suns and warriors in the western finals because that would be one hell of a series...they would be putting up 150 points a night

Getting rid of Webber was a good idea. Philly needs to get some help in the draft this year. I think they have a lottery pick and they need help at the 4 spot. They have a good frontcourt with Iggy and Miller, Korver is a pretty decent outside shooter,and Dalembert is starting to become a presence down low. If they could get some depth and a good power forward they would be in there. I think the Wright kid from NC would be a good fit for Philly.

sorry man but youre making Dirk out to be trash or something. The guy is mvp for a reason. Dallas sucked and Dirk didnt assert himself enough but the truth is, Golden State was better at nearly every position matchup wise.

You put Nash on the mavs without Dirk and you probably dont even have as good of a team as you have in Phoenix. Dantoni doesnt get enough respect. His system is alot different than what Avery Johnson is running. Marion, Stoudemire, Barbosa, and Diow are a perfect fit for the way they play. Youll see again though, the Spurs will probably beat the Suns and it will be another early exit for Nash. Dirk has played in the finals yet Finley or Nash never have. Im not really how you can say Nash and Finley would make Dallas better, especially by getting rid of Dirk. Im not sure there really is any basis for what you are arguing here. Last time I checked, Nash and Finley were both in Dallas and surrounded by a ton of great players and never won anything. I guess that was Dirk's fault too [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/crazy.gif[/img]

Could it quite possibly be that Dirk/Terry/Harris/Stackhouse/Howard arent the problem and Diop/Dampier stink. Dirk is the least of Dallas's problems.
