By younger core in 06, I was also referring to Dirk and Terry being 5 years younger, as well as Dev and Josh. Now you're hyping Tyson @#$%^& Chandler and 2 back up guards to do work in the postseason along with Peja. This makes sense to you how? How on earth does that make any sort of sense to you?
Since 2000 you all have 9 series wins, and 10 series losses. But suddenly THIS roster is "different"?
And quit fronting, you been hypin Dallas every year for years, Dirk been the one talkin you down tryna chill you out.
Why bring up LA? 3 years ago Kobe was 29, LO and Pau 27, Bynum was 21, Ariza was 22, Farmar and Sasha early to mid 20's, Brown mid 20's, in fact Fish was the only 30+ player we've had.
3 years later, NOW they have all hit 30, and now they will start to slow down and head down the hill. Lot more mileage on our tires now. See what I'm sayin about guys like Marion, Dirk, Terry, Kidd, etc? Lot more mileage then 3 years ago, right? And those guys, are all OLDER then the Lakers I just named. Do you see that, and understand that? And did you just bring up Barea and Tony Parker at the same time? You exoectin big things from Barea in the postseason?
Stop telling me there is stuff to base it off of, games 1-50 regular season. You do realize that the playoffs are a different animal, yes? So why are you telling me about THIS year things are different?
And yes, if you want to impress me, go buy a Melo, and give me another star that will be on the court with Dirk when it matters. Depth is nice, helps alot in the 82 game portion of each year,but when it comes to a series, and they are always close, at the end of the game each team can only have 5 guys, and if it's Dirk and 4 solid guys, vs a team with 2-3 top tier guys and 2-3 solid guys, who wins that 99 times out of 100? Unless you are telling me that you plan to be the 04 Pistons, Dirk and 4 solid guys won't do anything I haven't already seen.
But as you asked for, you only hope to beat LA this year, that'll make your whole season. *shrugs*
