It doesn't take a genius to figure out that 21,513,524$ is hard to pass up, especially since you likely wouldn't get that much on the open market.

I'm lost, what do you think about him and Wade in South Beach?

Personally, knowing the Spurs and having watched them forever, I wouldn't consider this an "upset" (I picked the Spurs in 6 or 7) because these teams were only 5 wins apart going into the playoffs...

But let's not kid ourselves, everyone and their mom (in the media and ISH) was picking the Mavs in this series.





Nobody took the Spurs seriously, but they have the talent, experience, and solid coaching to be a serious threat.

Cue some rant about how Golden State wasn't a "true" 8 seed and the same about the Spurs being #7. It's coming, unless they just don't want to do it because I called it

This was the first thing that popped into my mind as soon as the clock hit zeros.

I don't think it'll happen.

Well, at least Dirk played pretty well this series. In those other examples he had complete meltdowns.

When people look back on this, they're not going to remember that they were only 5 wins apart, they are going to remember that the 2nd seed lost to the 7th seed.

The worst part about it, is that it's more of Kidd's fault than Dirk's.

for the most overrated team of the past 10 years, if not ever. maybe not overrated, but I cant call them chokers since choking would mean they blew it at the last minute. ok I got it... biggest over achieving team.

If the mavs want more than just regular season success, and actually want to win everything, then cuban must abandon this approach of opening up his wallet to build around Dirk. Dirk must be the player who compliments another star.

Cuban isn't a billionaire cause he was careless with money.

If only Dallas could get another "superstar." They don't grow on trees.
