We'll be up front about it, we love what Don Nelson has done in building teams -- putting together some of the most entertaining rosters and running substitution patterns that go against "the rules." However, his fascination with playing for lineup mismatches may be bordering on stubborness at this stage. The top "most used unit" in terms of per 48 minute net plus/minus production is none other than the Dallas quintet of Nash-Finley-Jamison-Walker-Nowitzki. These guys have played a mere 6% of the total minutes for the Mavs, but are outscoring foes by 33 points "per game." Here's a suggestion: go with these guys for longer stretches! A 53% to 39% effective field goal percentage advantage doesn't strike us as a fluke

I wish the site would note that the Mavs have been unable to field that lineup very often due to injuries.
