They have a 51-9 record with 22 games remaining. Currently, they have won 16 games in a row and just clinched a playoff spot in the west.

19-3 would be tough with that schedule. They have us, SA, Phoenix twice and Utah. Plus a couple playoff teams in there too (Lakers minus Odom, Cleveland, Clippers, Denver), and pesky GSW twice.

I'm going to say no. put down 67 or 68 wins for me.

At the same point last year, we were 49-11. I don't think they will get 70 with that schedule either.

They've won 51 of their last 56.

No team in any of the 4 major professional sports has ever won more games over a 56 game span.

Ever.

Weren't the Bulls 72-10?

I guess you're right. The Bulls were 51-6. On the other hand, I think they are beatable.

52-10 with 20 games to go. Pistons last year were 50-12.

The answer is no because the is no officially a thread about it.

Well, they probably can't reach 70 anymore.

I'm thinking that it's pretty rare for a team (Dallas) to lose after out rebounding their opponent by 17!!!!! They also looked shakey come clutch time. I'm thinking that they end up with 65 wins.

Is it me or did Nash win the MVP last night?

He scored 10 points in the final 50 seconds to send the game to OT?

Sick.

The Mavs look like we did last March.

Terry scored 5 in the last 5 seconds to send it to double overtime.

And Dirk has beat Nash two of three times.
