No more Jason Kidd slander. Two WCF appearances in three years.

Congrats Mavs on the win. Its funny how just a few months ago people were talking about how bad of a job the Mavs were doing and how Luka might leave in FA. :lol:

Congrats to the Thunder as well. Very successful season and a very bright future.

I can’t believe Mavs won this one.

What a show of resilience.
