One of his points is valid. We only have 3 people that can score consistently.
After that its all downhill. His most basic argument seems to be injuries. How about the fact that JET, Kidd, and especially Dirk have a long history of missing few games to injury. Big surprise - Houston has been plagued with injuries and Ron Artest hasn't made them better. Millsap might be better than Boozer and Williams has played for a long time now.
"still can't pull away"? BS. We've been 19-6 since the 2-7 start. To hit 47 wins we need to be 26-22 over the rest of the season. That seems more than likely.
"When the other top teams in the West lose, there's usually a good reason" - Wrong, bad teams beat fully equipped good teams all the time. Its the NBA, not college, pretty much all the guys on the court can play and can have very good or bad games.
Since when is having no major dramas a bad thing?
In the end, this prediction can only work in the Mavs favor though. The lower the expectations the better. Bring on the hate.
