Game 67: Dallas Mavericks (38-28) vs. Oklahoma City Thunder (45-20)

Didn't change a thing. They were down double digits when Gafford went to the bench. Are down nine right now. At some point you have to risk it. Play more aggressive on defense. Pressure the ball. Go for the three on offense. Maybe they could have waited a little bit longer but the game wasn't decided by big vs small lineups...PJ sucked in all available lineup combinations.

I don't agree. There were rebounds Gafford would have got. He would have altered shots or limited their attacks. Maxi was no good tonight or anytime recently. Not saying they would have won, but Maxi hasn't done anything recently to justify closing a game. Maxi can't even shoot now. He literally is no help right now other than he can guard on the perimeter.
