I'm picking the Mavs over the Kings in 7

[ablang]

And I'll tell you why.

They should've traded Chris Webber after losing to the Lakers last year in the conference finals.

Pure & simple. Chris Webber is injury prone, like women marry primarily for money. Seeing him hurt in the playoffs is something Kings fans should be accustomed to by now.

Bobby Jackson is out for who knows how long, and C-Webb will be joining him soon.

Games 3 & 4 will be played on Sat & Sun at Arco. Kings will have pressure to perform well at home. They will be worn out rotating less guys on the roster.

But Game 2 shows why the Mavs are great. No one can stop the Mavs from scoring points. Kings can play all the defense they want, but they can't stop Nash, Nowitzski, ?, & Van Exel.

So I predict Dallas will win 1 or 2 games in Sacramento this weekend and will definitely win the next 2 at home. Everyone under-estimated Dallas and they will prove it.

Bobby Jackson has been cleared to play tomorrow. It's playoff time, I think he's going to play.
No one can stop them from scoring points? I think it's the other way around.

If the Mavs don't score at least 110 points a game, it's rather doubtful that they'll win.

C. Webb is a major scratch off the roster, but the bench is deep enough to pick up some of that slack. Will they be the same without him? Obviously not.

People under estimated Dallas? I don't know exactly who you've been watching on TV, but NO ONE doubted them. All that was said is that the Western Conference has the best chance to win the championship because the Eastern conference is horribly weak.
San Antonio, Dallas, Sacramento, and the L.A. Lakers are all major teams squaring off right now.
Each one of these teams hates the fact that they are playing one another.

*edit* and you're rooting AGAINST the Kings? I bet you don't do that when you're at work or at the grocery store do you?
