them nikkaz was raining 3 on the Lakers when they swept they ass then completley embarassed this dude

What a run

 

[LurkMoar]

The Mavs were the better team. They had depth which we didn't have at the that time.

I spoke the truth. The Mavs had a bench and the Heat was top heavy team.

No disrespect but Im not the guy who thinks the refs are the cause of you losing 4 straight in The Finals or losing a 3-1 lead. The Mavs lost at home & on the road. Dirk really good squad and didn't get it done. Years later he ran the gambit and made his bones....Is what it is

This times 100.

I keep telling people that the 2011 Mavs were a perfectly constructed team that were coached to their strengths and had an amazing run together.

You had a fantastic primary scorer and more than adequate secondary scorer, with extra shooters around them.

You had a great team leader as a primary ballhandler and multiple change-of-pace guys as secondary ballhandlers.

You had one of the best rim protectors in the league anchoring the defense, multiple strong wing defenders at the point of the D, and the best zone scheme in the league to organize it around.

And they were well coached.


The 2011 are just more evidence for the theory I keep pushing - when you're building an NBA title team, having all your bases covered and working with good chemistry together is more important than having 1-2 stars at the top. Having all your bases covered isn't enough in itself, but if you don't have guys taking care of their responsibility at every position, it creates tough cracks to survive at the highest level.

That's what's different nowadays. It seems that NBA teams are less concerned about building a cohesive unit and are more about trying to monopolize talent

I heard Cuban either sued the league or attempted too. I think he was successful too. Even though at the end of the day I'm happy Wade got that ring

but you slurping duncan and then the next sentence talking about #1 seeds losing in the 1st round?

Cause Duncan led Spurs swept the damn heat 3 years ago, so why is we talking about Dirk being the last to do anything legit, when Duncan was still rocking after Dallas 2011 championship. Dirk takes back seat to Duncan.

 

[gtj1982]

exactly.

but let these casual star-f*ckers tell it, dirk was carrying a bunch of bums.





Miami would've killed to have a Tyson chandler. not just that year, but all 4 years of their big 3 era.

especially 2011. yea they had the big 3, but their team was still incomplete. ESPECIALLY down low.

the mavs were built to beat the heat that year.





darn near every player on that team was a starter in years recent to 2011.

shoot, you had a guy in corey brewer who didn't even dress half the time he was there, but he started on the squads he was on directly before & after the mavs, iirc. he prolly only got tick in the playoffs because caron butler got hurt.

the team was stocked full of vets who were recent starters, or even former all-stars as somebody already noted.







ehh.

Cuban didn't break anything up. he simply couldn't afford to keep all those guys.

it was a rental team, designed to make a sneak run for the chip, and that's exactly what they did.

cant be mad at Cuban. you gotta congratulate him, if anything.

Dam so the Cavs were more loaded than the warriors going off of salaries. And LeBron still couldn't get it done

 

[Jax]

Dirk sonned us

And I'm a Bron dikk rider..pause

But yeah that beating in 2011

Us? Who is us?

 

[Mars]

Dallas won because the heat took shyt for granted,and Lebron wasn't aggressive,plain and simple.

Revisionist history is a dangerous thing brehs

On the season, the leader scorer after Bosh averaged 5.9 points. Mike bibby and Joel Anthony were starting and played an 8 man rotation. Our 6th man was a shooter playing with 2 broken thumbs. Our only big man off the bench was a 6'8 forward who was coming off a lisfranc foot injury that kept him out from early November until game 2 against the bulls. They didn't have any depth at all. Unless James, Wade, and Bosh were all cooking at the same time, that offense had problems. If that's depth, I'd hate to see what teams you don't think have it

 

[dtownreppin214]

I am going to keep repeating this whenever this topic comes up.

When he did THIS. I knew that series was over. After that crazy comeback. Dirk basically said ok...give me the fukking ball. Dirk was not going to lose that series.


I was literally like after he made that layup breh after all that shyt.

Terry was HUGE in that series btw:

One of the GOAT moments in FUNDAMENTAL basketball history.
