2010-11 Dal finished 57-25, same as defending champion LALs, but in 3rd place behind SAS and LAL.

Still disrespected, a lot of "experts" touted DAL as the team most others wanted to play in the playoffs.

DAL beat POR 4-2 after withstanding a back-from-the-dead moment from Brandon Roy in Game 3 where he exploded for 24 points (9-13).

DAL swept the LAL 4-0 frustrating them enough that MWP and Bynum drew ejections.

OKC was the new favorite, but DAL took them out 4-1, no sweat.

We all know how it ended in Miami.

My biggest disappointment is that Cuban, trying to be the smartest guy in the room, let the team dissipate. Would have been fun to experience a season defending the title and not just conceding.
