You make some valid points but that small-ball lineup was a total loser and Rick ran it twice in the fourth quarter. Mavs were not getting consistent offense out of that look and gave up ridiculously easy baskets on the other end. Mavs could have been beat worse had we not had the luxury of Dwayne Dedmon throwing up bricks during the fourth quarter.
I think once Rick saw the small-ball lineup wasn't working he should have tried something else, ie Boban or MKG who would have at least offered some semblance of protection around the rim. Mavs couldn't get stops so they had to run everything through their half-court offense which didn't look good. At any rate it was a game Mavs should have won that they blew.
Did Rick have money on the Hawks? Lol

How, and why, does he let the Hawks score 62 points in the paint? I just have this disgusted, nauseous feeling after these debacles.
