As a Mavs fan I have to say that so far I am convinced they do not deserve
to be in the playoffs.
I am watching veteran players make mistakes by not knowing where the clock
is at, turning over the ball easily, not taking it to the basket, no
hustle...
This team has the physical capability but they have not had heart all year.
They have gotten better with Jason Kidd, but I am convinced that he has
walked into a lockerroom full of players who could care less!

How so? It seems pretty matter of fact to me. They are playing like a mostly
freshman ncaa team on a team who kows they have no chance. >> Stay informed about: Mavs not deserving of playoffs? |

Do not be silly. Of course they care. No one not competitive by nature even
makes this league.

Hey some teams quit. But I do not think the mavs have. You want to bring up
the 2001 blazers and they were more than glad to all go home.
On the other hand mr. tazed team was up 3-0 on the 2003 blazers and some
fans figured they had quit. 'Sheed said not... and it took the mavs until
the last couple of minutes in the 4th quarter of game 7 to beat them.

I was referring to an erstwhile Laker... one who started quite a few games
for them this year... one whose "passing" has not been lamented round these
parts... ;-)

I doubt even he 'wants to lose' or does not care. He does not have enough

That's naive. If you think teams do not often play like they do not care,
then you have lost the plot. Teams play like they do not care all of the
time... and suddenly they start playing with heart and you can see the
change. Then there are those teams that are playing amazingly and then
become too finesse and start losing important games as they get bored with
their style of play. >> Stay informed about: Mavs not deserving of playoffs? |

Intensity like momentum and confidence is a fragile thing.
Does not mean they do not 'care'...

When you see half assed attempts, then you know the words "do not care" are
not far behind. Next time, watch the game. >> Stay informed about: Mavs not deserving of playoffs? |
