Isn't this entire discussion completely hypothetical and therefore speculative and "unprovable?" Let's not act like I'm the only one speculating here. For nearly a year now all I've heard from most Mavs fans is constant bitching about how horribly stupid it was to let Tyson Chandler go... how this team would have steamrolled through the competition right back to the finals... how we were practically entitled to a repeat.

Everything in sports is speculation and outright guessing. The Mavs took a series of calculated risks. Those risks didn't pay off (at least not in the short run) and that sucks. But I still maintain that the Mavs had almost nothing to lose in trying.

But we do know where we are right now. A mediocre team that will maybe make 7th and get beat in the first round, probably. Then do it all over again. SSDD
And with Chandler we'd be in the exact same boat. Maybe we're the 5th seed instead of the 7th seed. But there I go speculating again...
