OT: Is Dallas for real?

[Mediocre Man]

After all, they have a better record than the Hawks. However not as good as the shitty Rockets.

I am so confused?

The numbers say one thing, but should I look at the numbers? Do numbers only apply sometimes, and only to certain people?

 

[magnifier661]

No they aren't because they like turtles. Turtles are slow, therefor cannot keep up with the purple spiders

Please keep this on topic, mags. It should be taken as serious as any other threads like this

I was told Houston sucked because they had a poor SOS. I was also told the Mavs sucked in that same thread. Then I was told the Hawks may be for real, even though they have a worse record then either the Rockets or the Mavs as well as having a horrible SOS

I am serious... Turtles are slow and definitely not faster than purple spiders. If a team likes turtles, then logic would make them slow like turtles.

I will be sure to point this post out to mods when I am being hand slapped for derailing threads

How is this derailing? You asked if Dallas is real. I said why I think they are not. I'm staying on topic

 

[PtldPlatypus]

The national "analysts" seem to have a high opinion of Dallas. David Aldridge has called the Mavs "loaded at every position". Personally, I think they're a lot like we were last year. Strong in the starting lineup, strong offensively, but light on defense. A playoff team, but not a contender.

 

[magnifier661]

Okay okay I'll play...

Dallas are for real to be a top 5 playoff team. They've had a easy schedule so far, and it looks like they will have the hardest of the remainder games.

I still believe they will finish around 5th, but lack the defense to get past the second round.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Their defense is pretty stinky... seventh worst in Points Allowed. Their offense is amazing but that's the part in the game that can come and go. Their schedule isn't just easy, it's been the easiest in the league so far. So while their margin of victory looks nice, it's not exactly unexpected or impressive when you factor in their SOS.

They've played Philly twice, Utah twice, and Milwaukee twice. Their one marquee win is against Toronto. Their other marquee matchups (Houston, San Antonio, Portland) have been losses. They've even lost to Miami and Indiana.

They're lower half of the playoff picture... not contenders.

No, they are imaginary. They are the square root of negative one of the NBA.

In fact, I was seated behind the Blazers bench when we kicked their ass and I remember hearing Nic say, in his broken English, "They like pi". Silly Batum, I tried to explain that pi is an irrational number, not an imaginary number. He looked at me like I was crazy. Something must have been lost in translation.

I like it.

Mark Cuban hates the Rockets and Morey more than anyone. He LOVES to rub it in their face.

some people are attention whores, and some people are cry babies. and then there are crying attention baby whores.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

Crying whores are cool, but only if they're giving you a lapdance

And the mavs suck, fuck the mavs in a rose bush

 

[PDXFonz]

What does it mean to be real?

 

[3RA1N1AC]

To be real, is to exist outside of human imagination, the juxtaposition of a night terror forgotten upon awakening. Or maybe this is the nightmare.

Or maybe a set of internalized perceptions. What is Dallas?

Hey look, I'm pretending you want to have a meaningful conversation instead of baiting the mods. The least you could do is acknowledge my posts positively instead of everyone else's negatively.

You should crop that and make it your avatar. Really.

Having not seen Dallas play, and since I'm not a stat whore, I have nothing to add to this topic. So I won't.

It's like a metaphor for the job you do around here. Sometimes you catch the frisbee. Sometimes it's gotta feel like banging your head into a tree. Hat's off to you, pardner.

Blatant rep grab.

And it worked.

Rep'd.

 

[BBert]

Come to think of it, I did see the Blazers game when we beat the Mavs. The dumbass interviewer made a crack about Stotts stealing plays from his days at Dallas. Stotts smirked: "It's not stealing 'cause they were my plays". Loved that.

So: The Blazers beat the Mavs. Ergo, the Blazers rule and the Mavs drool. IOW: Blazers = Real; Mavs = Not.

Logic.
