I was being serious. Good point from your previous post where you mentioned it on the 5th but the two articles are very similar. Both talk about the fall from grace, show where the free agents went then offer some comparison to another title team that had a quick fall from grace. You used a MLB team they used the 2006 Heat. They are more similar then dissimilar without a doubt.

Doc – I’ll assume you’re joking. Nothing similar about the two. In fact, this post was half-written by Thursday right after the Jason Kidd signing; i just got caught up with other stuff and was unable to complete it until Sunday afternoon. Have you read all our NBA free agent coverage over the last 8 days?

also, check my twitter feed – plenty of Mavs tweets similar to what this post is about.

In fairness to the EIC it’s not like this is a novel concept. I think it’s conceivable that two people came to the same obvious conclusion without plagiarism involved.

That is true but within a day of each other? It is not like it was posted on some small website it was posted on the biggest sports website in the world. Then his article had nothing new in it he just changed the format somewhat.

This was posted over a day ago. This is pathetic don’t just copy somebody’s story then act like it is your own. This is the second time that I know you have just copied an article on ESPN then acted like it was your own idea. Weak!!!

They look at ESPN in the same light as Scrubbing Bubbles. They do the work so you don’t have toooooooo.

I think the Mavs did the right thing in letting the core break up. It’s not popular but given that they had an aging veteran team that didn’t deserve long-term deals, and had to negotiate a completely new labor/financial market while trying to re-engage the roster.

Brenda (not a misprint) Haywood,

As long as Dirk is around they’ll be in the hunt for a 7-8 seed. I think you’re overrating some of the younger teams like Minnesota, New Orleans, Golden State, etc. Yes they should improve but let’s face it 30-35 wins would be a considerable improvement.

JMac is trying to fit in with the opposing fans who mocked Haywood while at UNC by calling him Brenda

by “opposing fans” you mean everyone, including UNC fans whenever he played like crap, and by “while at UNC” you mean his entire college and NBA career.

They only fall to 28 wins if dirk is injured most of the season. Dirk is still a top-10 player in the league, and Carlisle is a good coach

Kind of funny that the Rangers are the only team here in the DFW actually worth a shit.

after the Heat won in 06 things went south quick, Miami got swept by the bulls in 07 first round

Then missed the playoffs the next season then back-back 1st round exits.
