Huge Disappointment

Don't you remember when you younger and got some trouble, then asked your parents are they mad at you. But, your parents said they wasn't mad at you but they were disappointed in you. Somehow, we as adolescents could commprehend mad but not disappointment. Our frontal lobe was not fully developed to fathom this concept. Now, I understand why my mom would tell me she was disappointed in me(she didn't tell me that often because I was and still is a fantastical daughter. wink, wink.) because she had high expectations of me and I didn't live up to them.

Well, how many of y'all had high expectations in the Dallas Mavericks?? Well, I kind of did and so did my daddy. He had them going to the NBA Finals knocking out the Lake Show. Well, if this was March Madness, his bracket would be busted, kaput, finito. The Dallas Mavericks is a breathing disappointment. They have won 50 plus games for the last 11 seasons. There are only 3 other teams in NBA history that lay claim to such streaks: The 1959-71 Celtics, The Showtime Lakers, and the present-day San Antonio Spurs. The difference between these teams and the Mavericks is that they have multiple rings. The Mavericks have none unless you count wedding bands.

They are like the disappointment of the decade. This team wins and blows out people in the regular season and can't beat an undersized Golden State Warriors. Where is the mental toughness??? That's how San Antonio beat Dallas amd why I think they will be in the NBA Finals. Manu Ginobili broke his nose. Tony Parker hasn't been healthy all season and is coming off the bench. Tim Duncan is getting up in age and has not been putting up 20 pts. and 10 bounds every night. And the million dollar question is: Who is George Hill and why is he wide open hitting all the back-breaking threes???

Maybe the Mavs still need their frontal lobe completely developed. I know when my mom told me she was disappointed in me, my hearts sank to the bottom of my feet. "I'm so sorry, mom" could not mend the sitaution. The only way is rectify the situation is not repeat the same careless mistake I made. Redeem myself from the foolishness!!! Let my actions be a living manifestation of my thoughts. So I'm thinking, What do the Mavs think of themselves??? I know what I think of them: HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT.
