While it is inexcusable to be trailing 29 points to the Wolves in the first place, coming back from that, and winning by 7, no matter what the team you are playing or you are, is spectacular. Coming back from a deficit like that is something the Mavs needed to regain their confidence. We are learning how to finish finally. If we're able to come back in situations like this, we can maintain 10 point half-time leads. It's all about the mentality. As long as we don't get too comfortable, and play aggressive, we can compete with anybody. The wolves weren't the best measurement, but the heart I felt this team had lost has reappeared, and in many cases, seems to dwarf the spirit seen by Los Angeles, Cleveland, and Boston.
