    But they'll be even worse defensively(if that's possible) if they go small. Losing Jefferson after already not having Parsons is not a good thing for them. It'll probably mean Ellis has to check Harden a lot of the time and that'll be a drain on his energy.

    Er... No. You don't bench your starters for your 2nd/3rd teams in the playoffs. And it would be FAR better to see us sweep them in their own arena, in front of their own fans.Just imagine the faces Cuban will make - endless gif-o-rama there.

    Our challenge for tonight, other than winning and finishing this series healthy, should be to be stellar defensively from tip to end.

    Our defense needs to be up to par if we really want to be serious and compete with the Spurs, Clippers, Warriors or Grizzlies. Giving up 128 to a Mavericks team missing their third best scorer and letting them get 30+ fastbreak points in unacceptable.

    I would love for this team to make have a statement win using our defense. Offense will take care of itself, especially if we convert tough defense to easy baskets the other way.

    With the Clips-Spurs series likely going on a week more, what are the chances Bev will be back and ready to play?

    Is the game starting at 8 or after the Wizards?

    I doubt it but I wonder if they will just bump the wizards or put us on TBS?
