ROSTER TALK: Mavs favs for Vogel if no HC job exists. Kyrie handshake deal?

[KillerLeft]

I gotta say in all fairness that we have the 3rd longest streak of 50 straight winning seasons with Dirk and company. That ain't nothing.

Unfortunately our "dynasty" period happened at the same time (and was dwarfed by) the Spurs historic run. Compared to the Spurs, we didn't do enough. Compared to EVERY other team in the NBA at the time, we had an incredible run.

Coaching probably cost us a couple of titles unfortunately.

I agree. Replace Avery Johnson with someone who isn’t having to learn on the job and they win at least one more, I am sure of it. I understand that Avery helped Dirk develop his iso game quite a bit, and have factored that into my opinion.

But, you make a good, valid point about the roster building and the Spurs timeline. It would’ve had to be a pretty damn special team to outshine that crew.
