i wouldn't expect the mavs interior defenders to be eaten up as badly as they were versus the blazers..the kings aren't nearly as athletic.
the mavs should hopefully be able to slow down the layup drill and at least break out even on the boards.
Now, will the mavs supply any perimeter defense? that's yet to be determined. they had their difficulties with portland...and i fear the kings' perimeter players much more off of the drive than I do the blazers players.
so, we'll see. players such as griff and bell should log considerable minutes this series
