10 NBA superteams which disappointed the most

#3 Dallas Mavericks: 2006-07

Dallas Mavericks were tipped for greater things in the 2006-07 season

The Dallas Mavericks' 2006-07 roster included superstars like Dirk Nowitzki, Jason Terry, and Josh Howard. Along with Anthony Johnson and Jerry Stackhouse, the team had the best fire-power which a team needs to be a superteam.

The team finished the 2006-07 NBA season with the record of 67-15, which was their best record in franchise history. Also, Nowitzki was named as the NBA MVP that year. All was going good for the Mavs as they also clinched the first seed in the Western Conference. A team which performs so good doesn't usually fall down and create a mess, but the Mavs made this happen as well. The Mavericks lost the first round of the playoffs to the Golden State Warriors 2-4.

When the postseason started, the Mavs faced the eighth-seeded Golden State Warriors which had a weak lineup and had somehow made it to the playoffs. The Mavericks were like giants in front of the Warriors. Mavericks head coach Avery Jackson decided to take out Erick Dampier after looking at the undersized Warriors which was the worst move by him. The Warriors made the best of this opportunity and won the first game.

The Warriors then slowly improved their momentum and were able to disturb the balance of the Mavericks by keeping Nowitzki's mojo out of the game with the help of tight defense and the Mavericks couldn't come out of the Warriors' defensive shield to win the series. The Mavericks' dream season came to an end.
