If you want to make an argument for the Lakers and Heat that's cool but I don't buy the Blazers and Thunder because neither one of them were stopping Dallas all year that season.
The Mavericks were 2-2 against Portland and our two wins came early in the season. And 2-1 against OKC (who had Durant, Harden, and Westbrook)

Where did you get the idea that neither one of them weren't able to stop Dallas?

And I distinctly remember that the only team that we were the favorites was the Portland series and Portland was the the darlings of the NBA when they beat us 2 games in a row to tie the series
