    I was following you until your 2nd sentence. How is Dallas "still" the team to beat. Did you check the playoff standings last season.

    Team #1: won
    Team #2: exited in the 1st round and stood pat this offseason.
    Team #3: exited in the 1st round and drastically improved.

    hmmm. Can you fill in the blanks?

    What I meant was they are still by the far the strongest in the conference. I know they got knocked out in the first round by GS, but I think that was a fluke. Of all the teams in the NBA, Dallas has the most trouble withe GS's lineup, not to mention Nellie still has a few tricks up his sleeves.

    If they had won that series, I'm sure they would've gone far, perhaps even taking out SA. Who knows, coming into this season, I still see them as being the best team (overall) in our conference. And if you check the preseason rankings, the "experts" think so as well.
