The road to 50: It is done

[Scott41theMavs]

Minny and OKC have been at the top of the West all season, yet they're pretenders?  That's ridiculous. Be careful what you wish for..It's not going to easy beating both of those teams.

I firmly believe that neither of those teams has a prayer of winning rings this year. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it. They remind me of the 2011 Thunder in terms of their development. They will deserve more credit next year if they continue to progress. That's the very definition of "pretenders." To me, the true contenders this year are the Nuggets, the Celtics, and maybe the Clippers. If you want a fourth - your Dallas Mavericks. I may be a homer, but I believe that Dallas rings is a far greater probability than OKC rings or Minnesota rings.
