How great of a chance do the Mavs have to repeat considering they won with no Butler, Roddy B or Haywood?
A pretty good chance, in my opinion. Resigning Chandler will be key...if they do, and Butler is back and stays healthy, with all else remaining equal I think they have a legit shot at it. Lakers will not be a threat next year...Jackson leaving will put them in disarray for a year or two (but they will be back after that). OKC is getting better, but need a couple more years to mature. San Antonio choked big time, but will be angry and looking for redemption next year. Memphis looks damn good right now, but is still just a good spoiler now, not really a contender yet. Portland is solid, but again, not a contender. Denver is on their way down. Phoenix will remain a non-factor. Really, who else is there in the West? San Antonio or OKC will be the biggest obstacles, and Memphis could play spoiler along the way. I know we have a really good shot of getting back there, and really, the Heat again, or the Bulls, maybe the Celts but they are on their way down too...these teams are about the only real competition the East could serve up if we do. I like ATL, but they got some work to do...Orlando needs somebody to complement Dwight Howard (if they keep him) or else they are a non factor as well.
