If GS Overpowers Mavs and beats them in the first round can they possibly go all the way to the finals, and if they do go to the finals can they win it all (Keep in Mind if they did beat the Mavs in the First round that means they beat the team with the best record in the League along with the top vote getter for MVP votes Nowitzki) that to me obviously means this is a strong team that no one expected to be this Good, what do you all think?

yes they can win it all they have a whole lot of talent i.e. baron davis, jason richardson, steven jackson, al harrington, biedrins, and monta ellis. The only reason they arent a higher seed is because they were only 100% healthy maybe 10 games this season so their seed doesnt really show how good this team really is and golden state is the only team that dallas didnt beat in the regular season the warriors were 3-0 in the regular season and 1-0 so far is the playoffs so obvioulsy dallas has trouble with them g.s. has big guards that the mavs and most teams cant guard and there big men are pretty good al harrington is a great player that can guard dirk because he is athletic enough to guard him around teh perimeter and big enough to guard him downlow this should be a very good series and im excited to see what else happens.

They have the talent to put up points in a hurry. One problem is that they are a very streaky team. Even if they get past Dallas, I don't know if they can sustain that level of play throughout the entire course of the playoffs. Another concern is Phoenix. GS is a running team, and so are the Suns, but nobody is going to beat the Suns in a fast up and down game. So GS will need someone else, maybe the Spurs, to knock off the Suns. I hope that doesn't happen though, because the Spurs are soooooo boring to watch. So yes I think that GS winning is a possibility...but they need to find some consistancy, and they need a little outside help.

W's already have this one won. Mavs will get a couple games, but the W's are in there head. Avery is coaching defensively, trying to counter Nelly, as opposed to doing what the Mavs have done all year. I guess Avery doesn't think that will work anymore, at least against the W's.
Yes, W's have beaten Dallas 6 of 7 before last night, and they only game they lost was the only time they didn't score 100 points. So, last night was another moral victory for the W's, knowing the can defend and don't have to score 100 to win, at least against these guys.

It is quite possible. This is the playoffs however. GS is a hell of a team and i predict that they will get past Dallas in maybe 5 or 6 and will surprise many. However, when you're talking about winning it all, i think that may be too far to reach. I see them pulling upset after upset, but maybe not the finals.
I do wish i'm wrong though. Go Warriors

If they pull off the upset there is certainly a chance but GS has a better chance in this series than anyu other team having a solid squad and Don Nelson coaching. No one knows the Mavs better than Nelson. If they run into the Spurs or the Suns they won't last long. They're too inconsistent and the Spurs defense will clamp down on them and no one can beat the Suns and their own game.

I am a DSW fan but reality check, Dallas is the no.1 team in the NBA they they still remain the team to beat.
The chances of passing the first round over Dallas are still very slim. However, I like the Warriors' hungry attitude and this could bring upsets...who knows. Let's cross our fingers. The best way is to take 1 game at a time and stop dreaming finals...not just yet.

i think that the mavericks are choking like they did last year. they are like the colts in football there are some teams they get stuck playing that they can't beat. But also like the colts the mavs will have their time and they will win. They need to get josh howard more experience. Back to the question i think Golden state will have the biggest chance for a while of winning the championship they already proved that they can play the best team and beat them. all they need to do is hang on. They got people that are ready to win and they will come through for them.

nothing is impossible but the chances are't too good. The NBA is about match-ups and in a seven game series how you can wear an opposing player down can help you win the series. Don Nelson knows the Mavs and Gloden State's small ball of slashing guards and three pointers gives them a chance to stun the Mavs but they may not match-up well against a team like the Spurs or even Pheniox!

this is a no longer uncomplicated question to respond to. i think of the Nuggets have a miles better hazard because of the fact they are underachieving against the Jazz. for the period of the subsequent video games the Nuggets could certainly start up showing their actual self and perchance win the sequence .The Nuggets have super gamers and scorers .If those adult men advance their overall performance then possibly something can exchange . The Mavericks are a miles better team than Nuggets however the Spurs are an extremely experienced team and that they understand a thank you to win video games .Dirk exchange into super in activity 3 , he exchange into by employing far the main suitable participant on the flor however the Spurs nonetheless gained the sport . I even have the sensation Dirk is slightly on my own . on the different hand the Spurs super 3 of Duncan ,Parker and Manu continues to be good .

If for some miracle Golden State beats Dallas, I still say they won't go far. After Dallas will be Houston. Yao Ming is just too dominate. If the miracle persists, and GS beats Houston, they will not make it out of the Conf Finals. GS cannot won't make it past the Suns or San Antonio
Here is my prediction:
Dallas beats GS in 6 (maybe 7)
San Antonio beats Denver in 6
Houston beats Utah in 5
Suns beat L.A. in 5
