Should the Mavs win its next two games – at Chicago and home versus Sacramento -- then Dallas will have compiled a 37-4 mark after dropping its first four games of the season, which would result in the second best record over a 41-game stretch in NBA history. Only the 1966-67 Philadelphia 76ers, the 1971-72 Los Angeles Lakers and 1995-96 Chicago Bulls have posted a better mark at 38-3 over that span. That's right, Dirk ranks up there with the legends of the game –Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry West and Michael Jordan -- who all led their respective teams to the championship in those seasons. Did we mention that those three teams also happen to rank among the Top 10 in NBA history?

I believe in the Mavs to take the title. The differance between the Suns and the Mavs is the Mavs can lock you down on defense when called upon. Phoenix will never win a title until they are able to play defense at a high level in a seven game series. Dirk has improved his defense. I really thought he should have won the mvp last year.
