No, I think Legler uses the "mascot" theory, as in Kings should beat Sonics because national rulers can ground airplanes. And Rockets should beat Mavericks because rockets have much more horsepower than mavericks. Etc.
Legler has had something against the Mavs all year - no one really listens to what he has to say here in Dallas. I think he's still bitter b/c he played on the Mavs when we won like 15 games in the mid-90's
