But, just for a second, consider the idea that the Clippers were so much better than Dallas that they should've won the series in 4 or 5 games to begin with. If you accept that as true, does it really matter that they spotted Dallas two games?
Dallas's fluky "better on the road" tendencies aside, winning the first two road games against an opponent would generally indicate you're quite a bit better than they are. Dallas's problem was that it was really Luka who was better than the Clippers, and he couldn't sustain doing it on his own.
However you slice it, I fail to be unconvinced that losing after that start is cause for anything less than paper bag wearing fandom.
