Depends which Dirk decides to show up for the series and if they can get some decent production from their bigs. If the Mavs still had Chandler it would be a whole different story. In taking OKC in 6 as well.

If the Mavs can recapture the shooting they had last year, then Mavs in 6. Otherwise, we'll see the Thunder wrap this series up in 5-6 games.

OKC is the fav here. if any teams that can beat them is the spurs, the lakers, and the mavs. if the mavs beat them, i think they will beat the hardest team in the PS

2-7 and 4-5 are the best series in both conferences this year. I can't wait.
Lakers are 22-3 in OT last 6 seasons:Kobe best OT closer!

Mavs had a lot of players play above their norm last playoffs..and they were all very hungry. I don't think they'll bring it again.

OKC in 5

Meant to vote Thunder in 7 but for some reason I voted Mavs in 7.

If Westbrook doesn't get out of his funk, this could be a really ugly series.

I'll still take the Thunder in six games, but there's definitely upset potential in this one.

How about the way the Thunder have been playing ? 1-7 against playoff teams in April.

that doesn't mean much.

the 2010 lakers went 12-10 in their last 22 games, playing just above .500 ball. going 3-8 against playoff teams in that stretch. they won the title.

sometimes teams just mess around or rest their guys or whatever.

It's funny how everyone but Mavs fans are declaring that the Mavs are going to win.

We are all seriously underestimating OKC. I think it's going to be a really epic series. the homer in me says Mavs in 7, but I'd go OKC in 6 as the real bet.

But that wasn't the case here. OKC have been playing for the #1 seed so to say they weren't trying to win down the stretch is Laughable!! Yeah the Thunder were resting their guys lastnight when Westbrook played 34 Minutes and Durant 40 Minutes in a Loss to Denver @ Home.

The Lakers were coasting because they had already locked up the the #1 seed in the west.
