    It's Dirk's time. He is going to win it this year.

    I'm going to root for the Thunder. I just can not root for Dallas.

    Dallas is the better team, but not by too much.

    KD can make a name for himself in this series defensively b/c he is their best chance at stopping dirk

    EDIT: i think this will be very competitive: dallas in 7

    Doesn't matter. None of these two teams will beat the winner of the Chicago/Heat series.

    Dirk is no Kevin Durant, Kidd is no Westbrook and Mark Cuban is no sandwich.

    Battle of the Soft Jump Shooting Big Men!

    Dirk Versus Durant

    How many Dunks will they have this series?
    I suspect they probably average maybe .5 dunks a game.
    Maybe 2 layups each . .. all jump shots for them 2.

    :p;):cool::grin:

    It pains me to agree with this guess, but that's where I would put my money if I was betting.

    Dallas is so much more experienced, and I don't mean Shane Battier experienced (no offense to him.) I mean Kidd, Terry, Dirk, and even Chandler and their other bigs. I also think Dallas has the much better x's and o's coach.

    Westbrook will get inside at will, past Kidd, but Carlisle will have a good plan for that.

    I disagree. I think Ibaka can make life hard for Dirk as well.
