The 2011 Mavericks had no business winning a title. Kidd was 37. Caron butler was out. Chandler, Terry, and Marion are decent role players, but nothing special. JJ Barea was a key contributor. The Hawks roster minus Dirk for the Mavs is miles better.

well Dirk didn't sit out the playoffs, so that's not particularly relevant.

Chandler was definitely more than a decent role player; he was their second best player.

The Hawks are a deep team that's fairly similar personnel-wise to the Spurs. They haven't played like a legit contender over the course of the season, though, and have been below average since the ASW. I doubt they'll be much of an obstacle to the Cavs.
