<< defense will ALWAYS play a huge role in determining the outcome of a series.
one area the Kings are notably better is their outside defense..they do not allow nearly as much penetration. Penetration will kill the ability of the mavs inside players to be effective and stay out of foul trouble.
If too much penetration occurs by the kings like last year, the mavs will lose this series quickly >>
sacto has looked like dallas from last year, letting NVE and nash get into the lane at will. its a freakin layup drill out there.
this is not a matchup of defensive juggernauts, and defense will not be a factor in this series.
