I would have to agree with ya there. I mean you could go 82-0 in an NBA season but if you dont have what it takes in the postseason then you get the boot. They had the finals in their grasp a few years ago with a 2-0 lead over Miami then to lose 4 straight. Went 67-15 last year only to get the 1 seed in the west and be knocked out by Golden State. Then this year losing 4-1 to New Orleans. He couldn't get it done in the postseason and the Kidd trade IMO was a bust. They had a great PG for the future in Devin Harris but now hes gone. This team reminds me so much of Phoenix, a 50+ win team in the regular season but blows it in the playoffs.
