Mavs fans

The little general has them playing good defense and in first place. The Spurs seem to always beat them, though. So, is this the year they finally get over the hump? I hope so. I'm in a house divided. My wife is a die hard Spurs fan and I'm a Mavs fan. It should be a good run to the end of the season.

GO MAVS!!!!

GO MEAN GREEN !!!!!!!!

I hope so EagleD. I think it's a nice change to see Avery Johnson bringing defense to Dallas after all of the crap defense we've played the past couple of years (and finally we don't have to deal with Sean Bradley anymore) so yes, I agree.

I think that Avery Jhonson is doing wonderful things there. having said that, no one can beat the Spurs in a series. they have the best player in basketball and a good supporting cast

Yeah, but when the Mavs would play the Kings a few years back, that was fun to watch. Defense wins championships, though.

GO MAVS!

On the topic of beating San Antonio, so far this year the Mavs are 1-1 against them.

The first meeting was a blowout, 103-84, Dirk having 34 points, Devin Harris scoring 22, and Josh Howard scoring 17. Meeting #2 was a much closer game, the Mavs losing 92-90. But in that game the defense was better and the scoring was more even with 4 players scoring in double figures.

So in summarizing that, I think the Mavs have a much better chance of putting the Spurs away this year, especially since Timmy and Tony aren't at 100%...we'll see if and how they come back. Be sure to tune in March 2nd, Mavs vs. Spurs #3!

Go Mean Green!

You're probably thinking of Manu Ginobili & Timmy. Parker is having the best season of his career.

BTW, Go Spurs!

I think a lot of it comes down to Duncan's health. If he's not 100 %...look out. Avery has them playing with a swagger I haven't seen since Van Exel's dismantling of the Kings a few years back. And now, the Mavs are top 10 in the NBA in every major defensive category. I never thought I'd be able to say that.
