Texas Triangle sweep, here we come! Great game thread, by the way.

There is no way possible we lose to Boston; they just are not that good.

The only way they beat us last time is because we were without Harris....oh, wait... :banghead:

Why would you want Cassell as your avatar?

Not sure if you are being sarcastic. But We beat you without KG last time.

A PF is not as important as a PG. I.E. Spurs win more without Duncan than thay do without Parker. Harris was more important to us than KG was to you!

Best gamethread I've seen on an opponents board.

Could go either way this one. These are the 2 deepest teams in the league. Plus there starting fives are amazing. A ton of great great players in this game. KG, Dirk, Pierce, Kidd, Ray.

You can't be serious right? Scalabrine started the last game we played you guys. KG is much more important.

Celtics are one of the top teams, I don't know what some of you are talking about.

At this point, I hope the Mavs lose every game so we can say bye to Avery. Apparantely the team is really fragmented and now the local media is covering it. Bye Avery :clap:

F*** yeah I'm serious!!!!!!! Who won that game for you? Rondo!!!!!!!!!! If you only had Eddie House, you think you would have won even with KG? No way in hell! Especially if we had Harris!

You're going way overboard. I don't care about position, the much better player will always have the most impact.
Also not to get into another debate, but if Harris is such the saviour you make him out to be, the Mavs would be riding a two year championship right now.

Oh, yeah! You're right. My bad! We always saw these Fire Avery, tank for a draft pick and when we miss the playoff threads when Harris was running the PG spot.

I's so deeply sorry for my misunderstanding of Harris' value.

I understand the panic going around, but to me, you just harp harp harp on Harris. I never see you write about any other Mav player, not even our best player who has carried us through everything (Dirk). It's always about Harris for you. If we win, we were lucky. If we lose, it's b/c Harris wasn't here. Sorry, the way you constantly go on about him, even comparing his impact to KG's is going too far for me.

The team experienced two consecutive playoff embarassments, and you make it sound like we were riding a two year championship and suddenly blew it up. Fact is: maybe you're right, maybe this trade was a HUGE mistake, but the you can't admit that the team was going anywhere this season in a much tougher West with the same roster and same "coach"

Wait a minute! Did I not vote Dirk as our MVP when the majority voted Harris? Sorry dude, I always said Dirk was the building block, but I also said Dirk could not do it without Harris.

And as far as the coach, maybe you're right. But one thing I am firm on is that Harris would have given us a better chance to win it all than Kidd will.

Well anyways, I think our biggest problem has always been and still is the coach, but that's another story.

I think we're all a little crazy/disappointed of all the ups and downs this season and the last two playoff performances.

Anyways, hopefully we show some fight tonight.

Perhaps, I can definitely see your argument there. But the underlying issue has always been Avery: not trusting Devin and now not trusting Kidd. To me, that has always been the biggest issue.
