Mavs are fading....

Wow!! 12-8, 1 more lose and they'd be second to last in their division! Many think this is just temporary, I don't. I think they're in trouble. It seems for 1000's of years we've all been saying its all about the Mavs and Spurs, these are our toughest competitors. Well, I'm not so sure anymore, I think maybe yes for the Spurs, but even they are having Duncan injury problems, hopefully he comes back strong. Because, for me, I want this suns team to beat the other teams in the playoffs w/o anyone missing. I read on AZ Republic earlier today about what someone thought was the reason the suns didn't win. And I liked a lot of it, basically, the reader said the Suns offense sputtered out, yes we got some b.s calls, but if our offense was playing like it can, the calls would've never mattered! This year, this team, I don't see their offense struggling like last years, and some of it has to do with Barbosa growing as a player, and a lot of it has to do with Hill, and a lot of it has to do with us being able to keep Marion.

I'd worry more about the spurs and celtics than the mavs, but it's early. One thing I did notice on the celtics, as most of you already know, west teams play more games against other west teams, and east with east, The schedule for the celtics is much easier than the spurs/mavs/suns... schedule, w/o question.

Here's my question, and maybe most of you don't care, but, with the Nash connection, and the competitiveness the last 2 yrs, I'm curious what other suns fans think.
Whats happening to the Mavs..
