Kidd's defense was stellar in the 4th and OT.
Terry was the one who carried the team in the first half and he did ok in the second.
Marion was a non-factor and Butler struggled.
One has to question Haywood's basketball IQ for taking the foul so early on Randoph. I can't imagine RC instructing him to do so.

Obviously the Mavs wanted to foul quickly to make sure that the Grizzlies didn't get a three pointer off.
