Geez...you'd think the guy was a former beat writer that covered the Mavericks for a Dallas paper or something...oh wait, that's right, he was.
Wow, not only Denver but he also puts Chicago, Indiana, and Seattle ahead of Houston. I guess Seattle maybe understandable because of their record, but come on'.
I think those teams are ahead of us because they have easier draws. Denver is ahead of us because he feels they will give San Antonio more flack than we give Dallas. Not too illogical if you figure Dallas will defeat us in 2. Hopefully we won't let that happen and we can add him to Classic moments.
