"I don't care how anybody wants to sugarcoat it, but the reality is that [the Mavericks] have had some significant failures in the postseason," Anthony said, "and I think they're going to matchup against a team in Portland that is going to have a lot of confidence in playing against them and has had some success Ray Ban Sunglasses." MAVERICKS in 7 (4) OKLAHOMA CITY vs. (5) DENVER The young Thunder were certainly the Lakers' biggest hurdle in last year's Western Conference playoffs and may prove to be again in the 2010-11 campaign. Kevin Durant is the NBA's best pure scorer and Russell Westbrook can get to the basket at will against just about everyone. Kendrick Perkins, meanwhile, brings toughness and interior defense to the middle, something that was lacking last year. Denver took off after dealing Carmelo Anthony, turning into a much more well-rounded team that is more defensive-minded and shares the basketball. That said, the Nuggets just don't have the horses to compete with OKC Burberry Sunglasses. "Denver is one of those teams that is difficult to prepare for because they don't really have one guy you can focus on or that you want to take away," Anthony said. "Ordinarily, that would create problems for you but I think that when you look at it from Oklahoma City's standpoint, they're a team that likes to get out and run and I think the style they're going to play in this series is going to benefit them Miu Miu Sunglasses."
