Agreed about the win streak thing. Though I'd have to extend that exact arguement to your support of w/l record. LAL, SAC, LAC, PHX, DEN, & IND are all teams that are very solid. 3-4 could be legitimate contenders if they heat up at the right time (regardless of how many wins they have total). It's even more impressive if you remember that every single team they play is playing up for their game against Dallas because the were the WC rep in the Finals last year.
In my mind, this game is going to be a grudge game though. SA wants to give Dallas a little nudge that they can play with them and Dallas still has Championship-Envy. I think the Championship-Envy is going to burn hotter so I thing D-town pulls is out. Pops might even be playing this down to his players as a game to leard Dallas' game rather than to simply beat them?

Its in SA, so I expect SA to win this one.
I find all this streak talk nausiating. What difference does it make that you can play and beat a bunch of crappy teams in a row?
here is there streak for those interested.
LAL
PHI
NOK
SAC
SEA
LAC
CHA
PHX
NOK
DEN
SEA
IND
thats a total of 4 teams above .500 and a combined record of 174-208
The only game in there that is significant to me is PHX and they shoulda lost and it was in Dallas.
The last game they did lose was to Utah.
SA wins.
