PLAYOFF GAME 5: DAL (2-3) @ LAC (3-2) | 111-154 loss
#4
A key factor I haven't heard discussed much is that the Mavs have proven in all four games that they can take what should be a knockout punch from the LACs and come back to keep it competitive. From -21 to +14 in the last game was the most dramatic, but there is evidence from the other three as well. If they can go up 3-2 after tonight, Luka and the boys will be topic #1 for sports talk radio and TV.

My point is that this resilience has to mean something to the team's self confidence. If they somehow survive this test, they should be a playoff monster for the rest of the post-season.

Personally, I'm having a evil snicker at some of the "experts" who thought Luka has a high floor but a low ceiling back before he was drafted. Thank you MBT for believing in your own data.
