Sometimes, the ball bounces your way, somtimes like today in game 4, it doesn't. Nowitztki gets a lucky 5th foul on Yao where there was hardly any contact, then the loose ball falls in right dirk's hands, followed by the poke of death from howard. You just get the feeling that this game was destined to be a Mavs win. Of course the ball came and found mcgrady's fingertips. But hey, the bright side is, luck wont stay with them forever, it never does, we have road court advantage, GO ROX in game 5!!
Luck is created when you don't turn the ball over. Luck is created when you play with agression for the full 48 minutes. Luck is created when you execute down the stretch at home in the playoffs. Luck did not beat the Rockets.
