With the Mavs about to get ousted, let's reflect on what a run '11 was for them.

Has anybody knocked off more big guns in one postseason than the Mavs and Dirk did last year?

A red-hot Blazers team in the 1st round, then Kobe and the Lakers, Durant/Westbrook and the Thunder and they finished it off by beating Wade, LeBron and the Heat in the Finals.

Even looking at that now is

Imagine how that could look 10 years from now.

Dirk can always hang his hat on that; only superstar on his team too.

Only to get blown out next season, this has to be one of the biggest drop offs for a defending champion.

Let's think about if they resigned Tyson Chandler

:

Let's think about if they even had a Lamar Odom that was half decent. This series would be 2-1 Dallas, right now.

But yes, last years run was one of the greatest ever. So many times the Mavs fell behind by 15-20 points in games and made epic comebacks.

Nothing like the Heat after they won their title, and then got shytted on by the Baby Bulls the next season.

But a bounce here or there and this could have been a 2-1 series going Dallas's way, or at least a 2-1 series OKC favor.

This isn't the same team that won their title. Chandler and Stevenson are both gone, they added that p*ssy Vince Carter and Lamar Odom sabotaged the season.
