This Dallas series could come right down to the end, though, if the Mavs keep playing that competitively (it seems they also walked through the regular season to get to this moment). I'm not sure that OKC was even the better team today, they just got it done at the end.

It felt like Dallas was going to win the whole way. They answered runs all night with huge shots. I think they played about as good as they can and we still held them off. I've said all year this is the last team you want to play in the first round. Dallas and SA are the worst matchups for OKC. You can't discount a team full of veterans in the playoffs. I'm proud of them for hanging In when Durant had a REALLY off night. Serge was huge and switching Russ on Terry made a big difference.
I'd enjoy this series a lot more without a dog in the fight. **** me!
