I think Mavs will win this series as well. All it takes is for the Mavs to steal one in New Orleans which I believe they will.
Iverson, Iggy, Willie Green, Sammy D, Josh Smith, Rasheed and Ben Wallace, Larry Hughes Garnett, Francis, Lebron, Melo, K Mart, Wade, Amare, Q Richardson, T Mac, DC, and C Webb

Mavs in 7. Peja's playoff choking has always been overblown, but Dallas just has so much more experience.

Going New Orleans in 7, but it's really close, I wouldn't be surprised either way.

As a Mavs fan, I think people are underrating the Hornets.

Will be a tough series is all I know.

No chance? This is a team which has been better than Dallas on the season, how the hell do they have no chance? They're 5 seeds higher and they have NO CHANCE???

As a homer I've got to back Dallas to win, but it WILL go to 6 or 7.
