Oh goodness. What a disappoinment of course to the Dallas team. After winning 67 games on regular season and being the top seed of the West, who will think that they can lose the first round? The answer: Golden State.
Having a strong mind-set to win the 1st round and hopefully to win the Playoffs after the last 16 years, they came out strong winning their 9 out of the 10 last games before ending the 06-07 regular season while the Mavericks struggling by just winning 6 out of their last 10 games. The Warriors brought a lot of confidence in court; they dominated the 2nd half of Game 6 with a lot of help from Stephen Jackson, hitting seven threes as the they became the third eighth seed to advance by ending the Mavs' magical season with a 111-86 win. And is greatly applauded be the Golden State crowd who is sporting the 'WE BELIEVE' shirt.
As Dirk Nowitzki, who was actually vying for MVP, said, "We played and won 67 games and but it means nothing at this point." It was the Mavs' team in NBA history to win at least 12 in a row three times in one season. It was indeed a discomfiture to them to lose this 1st round of the finals. Hopefully they can redeem themselves.
I just wish that the Suns make it to the finals. Arrgh. Steve and Amare naman!
