Mavs a Big Fat Zero

Bigbadred: I don't bother with ESPN boards I find a little children using foul language on those boards. And for the record I never said we would steam roll the Rockets - if anything I didn't even expect us to go far this playoff season.
You can't make waves in the playoffs when you change coaches and A COMPLETE 180 in philosophy just 18 games before the playoffs begin. You also can't establish team chemistry when you bring in 7 new players and have those key players become injured all the time.
You can't make waves in the playoffs when you've got your starting PG and starting C never even see a lick of action in the playoffs thus far in their careers. And you can't make waves in the playoffs when you've got the officials against you.
The Mavs fans you claim that talk a lot of trash are the ones you shouldn't be listening to. Listen to this realistic Mavs fan (me) if you want insight on the team, not some 13 year old on ESPN with a keyboard.

Didn't you guys go 15-2 over the last 17 games? Why is that any different/ Idk.....honestly the Mavs performance for these first 2 games has been suprising. They don't look anything like the team I saw at the end of the year. Are the Rockets that good, or is Dallas really not that good.
As you see, I said you didn't say anything. All I'm saying is a lot of Kings fans are happy because of others (not including you) who spited our team at every corner. Mavs-Kings is a rivalry, and I know a lot of Kings fans are happy that the Rockets have won the first 2 games, much like I know Mavs fans who are enjoying our struggles this year and our loss in game 1. As you can see, similar view points exist throughout this post by fellow Kings fans.

oh I understand clearly this is a rivalry b/w Kings and Mavs and of course Kings fans would and SHOULD cheer on the Rox.
As far as going 15-2 over the last 17 games we really didn't face anyone all that tough. Why the sudden drop off? Something I forgot to mention in the previous post is you've got someone like Jeff Van Gundy who's been there and he is TOTALLY outcoaching Avery Johnson in almost every aspect.
I stand by Avery 100% I think he'll be a great coach but I wish the growing pains didn't occur here and now

Mavsman-Why did AJ keep KVH out in the last minute. He's a choke-superstar. And (not to be offensive) why didn't Dirk take the last shot, Finley.......blah.

History seems to repeat itself with Dallas. Didn't Finley Brick one in game 2 or 3 last year.

Careful! mavsfan has been nothing but courteous on this board, as have a couple other Dallas fans who frequent this board. Please don't lump the few good ones we have here with the Mavs fans you find on those other boards. Also, I distinctly remember mavsfan giving props to Houston, so to say they never give credit to other teams is just not right.
Having said all that, I am not fond of a lot of Mavs fans either, or the Mavs (especially Dirk...and don't forget Finley), or Cuban (blech!). But, I am kinda fond of Avery. He is making mistakes all over the place. And, standing there looking mean with the clenched jaw....no smiling...damn, I get the impression that all he does is yell at the guys. His players must hate him...or not. At any rate, now that he is in charge, things are going downhill. He is a rookie and you can expect him to be outcoached. Yep! I am certainly not sorry about it either.

Hey... whats with Marquis Daniels no show? He almost killed us last year if I recall correctly, what's his deal now? Got a raise and stopped producing? Still hurt?
Should the Kings pursue him this summer to help with rebounding?

Interesting article on the Mavs on ESPN.com. Mark Cuban looks like he has indigestion in the pic beside the article:

Truly appreciate it 6th and I'm hoping people understand I'm here for good bball chats, no troll-like behavior (I don't even think I've posted on the Kings page yet, just the NBA threads)
