Dalmations, in all honesty, I think people are making WAY too much of the last second shots. No, they didn't fall.

What is important is getting the ball to your best player down the stretch of close games. The Mavs didn't execute down the stretch and didn't get the ball to their best player. None of those games should have come down to the last shot.
I agree. I just don't see Dirk taking the reins from Finley without a push. I also don't see Nellie mandating it. I have no problem with Dirk being the #1 option on this team, and being it's leader. They do have a problem with their not being that one true leader though.

I only bring up the last shot as an example of how Nellie tried all of them, and none of them came through.
