Mavs and there owner are too annoying. Gimme the Spurs in 7.

[CarolinaKid704]

Spurs will shock everyone and sweep the Mavs. Soooo I Hope. Just not a big fan of everyone in Dallas.

Michael Finley's so good that he starts and plays off the bench for the Spurs.

Here we go third playoff game of the day.

[King Taharqa]

Mavs go up 1-0

[J-Vic]

Spurs are the only team in the West the Mavs had a chance to beat in a series. Maybe Utah.

[King Taharqa]

Spurs take Game 2, even series 1-1

[The Link]

Spurs in 7.

[King Taharqa]

Mavs win series 4-1

With how easily the Mavs put away the Spurs I think its time to admit that their run is officially over. Tim Duncan while still good for 20 & 10 on most nights just isnt the defensive force he once was. They missed Ginoboli badly this series and lack guys (outside of him and Parker) who can create their own shots. The Spurs need another good big, more offensive punch from their 2 & 3 spots too before they should be considered the league's elite again.
