That was a nice win for the Mavs. Game 2 is usually the "stealable" game on the other guy's floor and they went out and took it.
The Spurs have their work cut out for them....
I was worried that the Mavs had lost the series in one game Sunday by playing poorly (compared to how they played in the first round, but understanding the opponent was much tougher) and not taking advantage of SA's lack of rest. Apparantly, last night's win was in large part the result of SA's first round series, since SA didn't have a lot in the tank to do much other than scream at the officials. The other good thing about last night was that Dirk had a good, but not great game. If he lights it up this weekend in Dallas, we are in good shape.
I predicted before this series started that Dallas would win in 6. At this point, its just wishful thinking: I don't care if I'm right or wrong as long as they win!
I did see part of the Pistons game. They'll probably beat Cleveland in 5 at worst.
