Can we beat the Mavs and Spurs back to back?

[kingkung]

see above. I'm not going to clarify my question; interpret it any way you see fit.

 

[RaY Z]

heart says yes butt the brain says no...

 

[hoops4kings]

Absolutley not. Would be the shocker of the season if we did, which I would love.

This team is like Sybil..you never know what personality will show up game by game.

 

[twocents]

heart says yes butt the brain says no...

good idea; i am going to name mine too.

the magic just beat the mavs and the spurs are not really at the top of their form. but i don't think the kings can beat them both. a split would be just fine.

 

[dukeswh]

Beating one of them on the road is already a tough task to accomplish, but beating both of them........ 0-2 is probable, 1-1 can be accomplished, 2-0 is highly unlikely. But i would gladly eat crow.

lol

 

[piksi]

could ve beat them on potential - sure

are we going to - considering the recent form - hell no

 

[Kings113]

It'd be incredible, but I really doubt it.

 

[West_Gunslinger16]

KINGS, I BELIEVE!

 

[KingKong]

At this point, I just hope we don't limp into the playoffs like last year. Seattle really killed us that first round. Now is the time to start gaining some confidence , building some momentum and storm into the playoffs. One thing, if we do end up playing the Spurs, and we beat them.... what a confidence booster that would be for the team. They could take on the world after a feat like that.

 

[slugking50]

.009% but still possible.

 

[M10Bibby]

its possible...gimme the team that was winning 13 or 14 at home and won 4/5 on that road trip....and ill say its a definite possibility =)

 

[Folsom Al]

Gawd willin' ... and the river don't rise - maybe !!!!!

 

[loopymitch]

I think winning 1 is a definite possibility but both is highly unlikely unfortunately.

 

[GoGoGadget]

Can we? Absolutely.

Will we? That's where things get a little tougher.

 

[HumboldtKing]

But I hope I'm wrong!

 

[BLNINJA #81]

Anything is possible. I said yes so, why not?

 

[chelle]

ANYTHING is possible.

I do prefer to believe in miracles, so I wanted to choose yes. However, at this point, given how we have been playing, I decided to choose NO.

We have the ability, but we also need to have faith and guts. We have yet to go a REAL run that shows we have have all three at the same time.

It would be GREAT if we were to accomplish a 2-0 win with the Mavs and Spurs. 1-1 is very possible, but 0-2 is just as likely. Wouldn't winning BOTH be AMAZING?????

It COULD happen. . . .


See, I told you that I like to believe in miracles!!!

 

[quick dog]

Can we? Absolutely.

Will we? That's where things get a little tougher.

Ditto.

 

[Entity]

Dallas is losing to everybody else they may as well lose to us again.

 

[Bricklayer]

If anybody actually believes the premise of this thread and would like to help me buy a new BMW please feel free to give me your money...er...I mean bet me we'll sweep through Texas.

 

[RThomas]

Let's just concentrate on BEATING THE CLIPs first, then we should discuss the mavs and spurs. I BELIEVE that they will win all three !
Yes ALL THREE ! GO KINGS

 

[HndsmCelt]

And people wonder why I hate polls

 

[6th]

The Kings are playing like Jekyll and Hyde. That alone should indicate that they will not play well enough against the West's top 2 teams and beat them both. Also, the Kings ability to win the second game of a back to back...especially on the road...is dismal at best.

I picked NO and thought it was an easy decision. I would be thrilled if we could go into Dallas and beat the Mavs. I hate Cuban and Dirk. But, even if we do beat the Mavs, we will not then follow it up with a win in San Antonio.

 

[VF21]

I agreed with G3...and so, in direct response to the question, I said YES.

 

[JJ22L]

...is it odd im just hoping we beat the clippers first

Outlook not so good.

 

[Padrino]

the answer is, of course, no. everybody should be voting "no." it's just not gonna happen. now, if by some miracle the kings did win both games, having voted "no," everybody could be surprised at our team's resilience and everybody could get their hopes up for the playoffs. delusion is much more fun when everybody's in on it.

The answer is absolutely "Yes". The Kings can beat the Texas teams. As GGG said, the question should be "will they?"

If you are so convinced that it is indeed impossible, offer up some wagering odds and see who bites. Afterall, if the answer to the original question should be yes, then it follows that it is simply a matter of probability.

There must be some odds that Nowitski, Duncan, and Ginobili will all break their legs tomorrow.

Slim - Since you checked with your 8-ball, I checked with the Cheddar Magic 8-ball website. http://www.cheddarheads.co.uk/magic8/magic8.html

The answer I got was:

Far too early to say.
